Definitions

  • the invention relates to torque wrenches with a ratchet and a drive for the ratchet, wherein the ratchet has a ratchet housing with two mutually opposite side walls, which have a predetermined distance from each other and are connected to each other, a transversely through the two side walls extending through gear opening, which is adapted to receive a ratchet body, wherein the axis of rotation is parallel to the axis of the through hole, and with fastening means for fixing a support means to the torque wrench with which the torque wrench is perpendicular to the axis of rotation of the ratchet body rotatable supportable.
  • a known torque wrench of this type is composed of a ratchet unit having a ratchet housing ratchet and a drive unit having the ratchet drive.
  • the drive unit has an extension, which extends in the assembled state of ratchet unit and drive unit in the ratchet housing between the side walls.
  • the extension and the side walls each have a bore, which are aligned in the assembled state of ratchet unit and drive unit. These holes are used to attach various support devices to the torque wrench. With these support means of the torque wrench is supported perpendicular to the axis of rotation of the ratchet body when applying a torque, for example on the next screw or on the flange.
  • the support devices have two mutually parallel and mutually spaced leg, which are applied on both sides of the torque wrench on the side walls. Each leg has a bore, which are aligned with each other and in the state suitably applied to the torque wrench with its said holes.
  • a bolt is guided from one side through the hole in one leg of the support device, then through the holes in the ratchet unit and in the drive unit and finally through the hole in the other leg of the support device and then in its position secured.
  • the invention has for its object to improve a generic torque wrench so that the mounting option for a support device is easier to handle and at the same time higher load capacity.
  • the fastening means have a free space lying between the side walls, which is accessible from outside the torque the access opening is arranged between the two side walls, and which is designed to receive a fastening portion of the support means, and the fastening means comprise means for fixing the fixing portion in the free space.
  • the inventive measures can be attached to a torque wrench with a small footprint and in a very simple way a support device and also released from the torque wrench, while reducing the production cost of the torque wrench and the fasteners for the support at unchanged ab leveragenden supporting forces or moments can be made smaller.
  • the fastening means have a space lying between the side walls, which is accessible from outside the torque wrench and designed to receive a mounting portion of the support means, a mounting option is provided for the support means, in which a mounting portion of the support means can be easily and safely inserted.
  • the installation space or space requirement of the torque wrench is increased transversely to the side walls by a introduced into the free space mounting portion of the support device neither during their attachment nor during the screwing, so that the support means are used even in tight space conditions can be easily inserted into the torque wrench or the torque wrench can be placed on the support device.
  • the attachment of the support device is carried out exclusively on the ratchet housing, d. H. without involvement of the drive unit. In the manufacture of the torque wrench, therefore, there are no tolerances influences or imprecision in terms of elements mounted on the drive unit for fastening the support device.
  • the attachment means also have means for securing the attachment portion of the support means in the clearance, i. H.
  • the attachment takes place in the free space, so that, for example, a fastening bolt extending transversely to the side walls only has to extend between the outer walls of the side walls and its shear surfaces are located close to the inner walls of the side walls. Due to the reduced length of the fastening bolt and the reduced distance between its shear surfaces, the bending stress of the fastening bolt is reduced, thus increasing its capacity for absorbing shear forces.
  • the outer peripheral edges of the two opposite side walls are connected to each other by means of an edge wall and the access opening to the free space is arranged in this edge wall.
  • a guide for the attachment portion of the support device is created.
  • the access opening is in this case of opposite sections of the side walls or parallel to the side walls and walls in the circumferential direction of the peripheral wall opposite portions of Edge wall formed or limited. These boundary sections of the access opening simultaneously form a guide for the fastening section, by means of which the fastening section is guided into the free space.
  • the free space in a plane perpendicular to the axis of the through hole has a triangular cross section, which tapers into the ratchet housing.
  • the attachment portion of the support device can be even more easily guided into the space.
  • the clearance may also have any other cross-sectional shape suitable for inserting and fixing the attachment portion of the support. So z. B. other embodiments of the taper of the cross section possible, for example, a step-shaped taper. It is also conceivable that the cross section is not tapered, but is rectangular.
  • the torque wrench has a bore running transversely through the two side walls and the free space, which hole is designed to receive a bolt for fastening the fastening section of the support device. A secure and fast and also cost-effective attachment of the mounting portion in the free space is ensured in this way.
  • the attachment portion of the support device has a bore which is also designed to receive the bolt and which is aligned with the holes in the side walls of the ratchet housing when either the attachment portion rests in the free space on the walls or the support means on the edge wall ratchet housing is applied.
  • a torque wrench according to the invention may be constituted by a ratchet unit comprising the ratchet-housing ratchet and a drive unit having the ratchet drive, the ratchet unit and the drive unit being detachably assembled into a screwdriver unit.

Transversely through the two side walls 5 passes through a passage opening 6, in which a ratchet rotating body 7 is received, whose axis of rotation 8 is parallel to the axis 9 of the passage opening 6.
  • the ratchet body 7 in turn has in the illustrated embodiment, a hexagonal passage opening 10 for receiving, for example, a hex nut.
  • the outer peripheral edges 1 1 of the side walls 5 are connected to each other by means of an edge wall 12.

  • a through-bore 22 which passes through the two side walls 5 of the ratchet housing 4 and the free space 17 and is designed to receive a bolt 23 for fastening a fastening section 24 of the support device 16. Due to the triangular shape of the clearance 17, the attachment portion 24 of the support 16 can be easily inserted into the clearance 17.
  • the position of the holes 22a in the side walls 5 of the ratchet housing 4, ie the edge distances of these holes 22a to the edge 25 of the free space 17, and the position of the bore 22b in the mounting portion 24 of the support 16, ie the edge distances of this bore 22b to the edge 26 of the mounting portion 24, are coordinated so that the bore 22b in the mounting portion 24 is aligned with the holes 22a in the side walls 5 of the ratchet housing 4 when the mounting portion 24 is inserted as far as possible in the free space 17, ie either the mounting portion 24 in the free space 17th on the walls 27 rests or the support means 16 rests against the edge wall 12 of the ratchet housing 4.
