Abstract

Abstract An apparatus for absorbing oil pressure in an impact tool with an eccentric oil chamber in a rotatable cylinder connected to a drive with a rotor and spindle. Movement of the rotor relative to the oil chamber urges oil into chambers outside of the rotor. A space chamber formed inside of the cylinder communicating with the oil chamber is filled with a soft elastic member such as foam rubber.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim 98 words
An apparatus for absorbing oil pressure in an impact tool employing an eccentric oil chamber, said chamber being formed in a rotatable cylinder connected to an air motor drive having a rotor connected to a spindle, wherein: said rotor by moving relative to said oil chamber in predetermined angular position thereby urges oil into respective partitioned chambers formed outside of the rotor to impart an impact torque to said rotor; and at least one longitudinally extending space chamber formed in the cylinder is in communication with the oil chamber being filled with a closed cell type foam rubber.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 98 words
An apparatus for absorbing oil pressure in an impact tool employing an eccentric oil chamber, said chamber being formed in a rotatable cylinder connected to an air motor drive having a rotor connected to a spindle, wherein: said rotor by moving relative to said oil chamber in predetermined angular position thereby urges oil into respective partitioned chambers formed outside of the rotor to impart an impact torque to said rotor; and at least one longitudinally extending space chamber formed in the cylinder is in communication with the oil chamber being filled with a closed cell type foam rubber.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 46 words
An apparatus as claimed in claim 1, wherein: the space chamber is filled with the soft elastic member extending substantially over the whole length thereof, and a space gap at left at one end portion thereof, is in communication with the oil chamber through an opening.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 46 words
An apparatus as claimed in claim 1, wherein: the space chamber is filled with the soft elastic member throughout the whole length thereof, and being in communication with the oil chamber through a plurality of openings disposed at proper intervals along throughout the whole length thereof.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 17 words
An apparatus as claimed in claim 1 wherein: said extending space chamber is formed in the rotor.
