Description

GEBIET DER ERFINDUNGFIELD OF THE INVENTION

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Handwerkzeugmaschine, insbesondere einen Elektroschrauber.The present invention relates to a hand tool, in particular an electric screwdriver.

Elektroschrauber können in den meisten Anwendungen mit einer Hand geführt werden. Ein von dem Anwender aufzubringendes Drehmoment und ein Anpressdruck sind typischerweise gering. Ein Pistolengriff genügt diesen Anwendungen und erlaubt eine kompakte und leichte Bauform. In einzelnen Anwendungsfällen, z.B. bei einer Befestigung von Blechen mittels Schrauben, ist ein hoher Anpressdruck erforderlich. Für solche Anwendungen kann der Anwender die Elektroschrauber mit einer zweiten Hand an einem lösbaren Zusatzhandgriff halten, den der Anwender nahe der Werkzeugaufnahme befestigen kann.Electric wrenches can be operated with one hand in most applications. A torque to be applied by the user and a contact pressure are typically low. A pistol grip meets these applications and allows a compact and lightweight design. In individual applications, e.g. in a mounting of sheets by means of screws, a high contact pressure is required. For such applications, the user can hold the electric screwdrivers with a second hand on a removable auxiliary handle, which the user can attach near the tool holder.

OFFENBARUNG DER ERFINDUNGDISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION

Die erfindungsgemäße Handwerkzeugmaschine, z.B. ein Elektroschrauber hat eine Werkzeugaufnahme zum Haltern eines Werkzeuges längs einer Achse. Ein Gehäuse hat einen Griffbereich für eine erste Hand. Der Griffbereich hat einen Auflageabschnitt für Daumen und Zeigefinger in einer Ebene mit der Achse und einen Schaftabschnitt zum Umgreifen auf einer Seite der Ebene. Eine Anlagefläche für eine zweite Hand, die abgewandt von der Werkzeugaufnahme und auf einer anderen Seite der Ebene angeordnet ist, ist zwischen 80 Grad und 100 Grad zur Ebene geneigt.The hand tool of the invention, e.g. An electric screwdriver has a tool holder for holding a tool along an axis. A housing has a grip area for a first hand. The grip portion has a thumb and forefinger rest portion in a plane with the shaft and a shaft portion for grasping on one side of the plane. An abutment surface for a second hand, which is remote from the tool holder and disposed on another side of the plane, is inclined between 80 degrees and 100 degrees to the plane.

Die Anlagefläche ermöglicht einem Anwender einen zusätzlichen Anpressdruck auf das Werkzeug auszuüben, z.B. indem der Handballen der zweiten Hand gegen die Anlagefläche presst. Obwohl mit dem Handballen eine höhere Kraft als mit der Handspanne zwischen Daumen und Zeigerfinger eingeleitet werden kann, zeigten überraschend Studien, dass die Anordnung der Anlagefläche versetzt zu der Achse und der Griffbereich für Handspanne in der Ebene mit der Achse bei einem langen Einsatz als ergonomischer wahrgenommen werden. Mit der gewählten Neigung wird ein Abrutschen der Hand von dem Gerät oder ein Rutschen der zweiten Hand gegen die erste Hand vermieden.The contact surface allows a user to exert an additional pressure on the tool, for example by the palm of the hand of the second hand pressed against the contact surface. Although a greater force can be introduced with the heel of the hand than with the hand span between the thumb and the index finger, studies have surprisingly revealed that the disposition of the abutment surface offset from the axis and the hand grip area in the plane with the axis are more ergonomic during long use become. With the selected inclination slipping the hand of the device or slipping the second hand is avoided against the first hand.

Eine Ausgestaltung sieht vor, dass die Anlagefläche eine Abmessung von wenigstens 1,2 cm senkrecht zu der Ebene aufweist.An embodiment provides that the contact surface has a dimension of at least 1.2 cm perpendicular to the plane.

Eine Ausgestaltung sieht vor, dass der Auflageabschnitt für Daumen und Zeigerfinger in einer Vertiefung des Gehäuses angeordnet ist.One embodiment provides that the support section for thumb and index finger is arranged in a recess of the housing.
