Hot air hand welding device

Claim 2

A hot air welding device comprising: a plastic housing that forms a rod-like grip portion that is provided with air inlet openings; a commutator motor which includes a stator and a rotor, said commutator motor having a commutator and carbon brushes secured in said housing and driving a blower wheel which is surrounded by a section of the housing adjoining the grip portion but of a greater diameter, the stator and rotor of said commutator motor being positioned within said grip portion; said greater diameter housing section being connected to an end section on the side opposite the grip portion, which end section has a connection device connected to a heating cartridge and a protection and connecting tube surrounding said connection device and said heating cartridge; wherein said blower wheel (23) is arranged adjacent to the commutator (20) of the commutator motor (18); and wherein the commutator (20) and the carbon brushes that contact said commutator are arranged with the associated brush holders (21) in the section (3) of the housing surrounding the blower wheel (23).

Claim 3

The device according to claim 1, wherein the section of the housing that forms the grip portion (1) is comprised of two half shells.

Claim 4

The device according to claim 2, wherein the two half shells are formed as a clamping device which secures the commutator motor (18) in the housing.

Claim 5

The device according to claim 1, wherein an intermediate space extending over the entire length of the motor is provided between the outer surface of the stator (19) of the commutator motor (18) and the inner surface of the housing, said intermediate space having a cross-section that is selected so as to provide that at least a large portion of the air aspirated through the inlet openings by the blower wheel (23) flows through this intermediate space to the blower wheel (23).

Claim 6

A hot air welding device comprising: a plastic housing that forms a rod-like grip portion that is provided with air inlet openings; a commutator motor having a commutator and carbon brushes secured in said housing and driving a blower wheel which is surrounded by a section of the housing adjoining the grip portion but of a greater diameter; said greater diameter housing section being connected to an end section on the side opposite the grip portion, which end section has a connection device connected to a heating cartridge and a protection and connecting tube surrounding said connection device and said heating cartridge; wherein said blower wheel (23) is arranged adjacent to the commutator (20) of the commutator motor (18); and wherein the commutator (20) and the carbon brushes that contact said commutator are arranged with the associated brush holders (21) in the section (3) of the housing surrounding the blower wheel (23); wherein in that in the section (3) of the housing that surrounds the blower wheel (23), at least one air outlet opening (27) is provided on the pressure side of the blower wheel (23), and a manually activatable closure element (28) is associated therewith which can be adjusted between the positions of maximum and minimum aperture of this opening, whereby in the position of minimum aperture, the opening is only partially closed.

Claim 7

A hot air welding device comprising: a plastic housing that forms a rod-like grip portion that is provided with air inlet openings; a commutator motor having a commutator and carbon brushes secured in said housing and driving a blower wheel which is surrounded by a section of the housing adjoining the grip portion but of a greater diameter; said greater diameter housing section being connected to an end section on the side opposite the grip portion, which end section has a connection device connected to a heating cartridge and a protection and connecting tube surrounding said connection device and said heating cartridge; wherein said blower wheel (23) is arranged adjacent to the commutator (20) of the commutator motor (18); and wherein the commutator (20) and the carbon brushes that contact said commutator are arranged with the associated brush holders (21) in the section (3) of the housing surrounding the blower wheel (23); wherein in that in the section (3) of the housing that surrounds the blower wheel (23), at least one air outlet opening (27) is provided on the pressure side of the blower wheel (23), and a manually activatable closure element (28) is associated therewith which can be adjusted between the positions of maximum and minimum aperture of this opening, whereby in the position of minimum aperture, the opening is only partially closed.

Claim 8

The device according to claim 5, wherein the closure element is formed as a slide (28).

Claim 9

The device according to claim 1, wherein a protective element (8) adjoins the end section (6) of the housing, said protective element surrounding the protection and connecting tube (13), at a spaced distance, over a portion of its length.

Claim 10

The device according to claim 7, wherein the protective element (8) is made of plastic and is formed in one piece with a cap nut (7).

Claim 11

The device according to claim 1, wherein in addition to a seat for exchangeable nozzles on the free end of the protection and connecting tube (13), which seat is formed by the outer cover surface of the protection and connecting tube (13), a nozzle connection element (14) is provided having a threaded section onto which exchangeable nozzles can be screwed.
