Abstract

An electrical tool including: a cutter bit assembly, a driving mechanism for providing a power to the cutter bit assembly, and a flexible transmission mechanism, which is connected at one end thereof to the driving mechanism and connected at the other end thereof to the cutter bit assembly; the flexible transmission mechanism is twistable and bendable, and is configured to transmit the power provided by the driving mechanism to the cutter bit assembly.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. An electrical tool comprising:
a cutter bit assembly,
a driving mechanism for providing a power to the cutter bit assembly, and
a flexible transmission mechanism, which is connected at one end thereof to the driving mechanism and connected at the other end thereof to the cutter bit assembly; the flexible transmission mechanism is twistable and bendable, and is configured to transmit the power provided by the driving mechanism to the cutter bit assembly,
wherein the flexible transmission mechanism comprises a flexible transmission piece having a plurality of rigid support portions and a flexible connecting piece, and each two adjacent rigid support portions are connected by the flexible connecting piece to achieve an adjustment of torsion and bending between the two adjacent rigid support portions, and
wherein the flexible connecting piece is a flexible cord, and the plurality of rigid support portions are a plurality of rigid balls with a through hole on each of the rigid balls, wherein the rigid balls are mounted on the flexible cord sequentially and successively and are bonded with the flexible cord.

2. The electrical tool according to claim 1 , wherein the flexible transmission mechanism further comprises a bushing sleeved outside the flexible transmission piece, wherein the rigid support portions support the bushing.

3. The electrical tool according to claim 2 , wherein the bushing is provided at one end thereof with a first joint to be connected with the driving mechanism, and is provided at the other end thereof with a second joint to be connected with the cutter bit assembly.

4. The electrical tool according to claim 3 , wherein the bushing comprises a first bushing and a second bushing sleeved outside the first bushing, and a wire for electrically connecting the driving mechanism with the cutter bit assembly is provided between the first bushing and a second bushing.

5. The electrical tool according to claim 4 , wherein the wire and the first joint are electrically connected through a plug-in connection between a first wire pin and a first wire slot, while the wire and the second joint are electrically connected through a plug-in connection between a second wire pin and a second wire slot, the first joint being electrically connected to the driving mechanism, and the second joint being electrically connected to the cutter bit assembly.

6. The electrical tool according to claim 4 , wherein the cutter bit assembly comprises a rotatable cutter and a speed adjustment switch for adjusting a rotational speed of the cutter; the speed adjustment switch is in a signal connection with the driving mechanism.

7. The electrical tool according to claim 6 , wherein the driving mechanism comprises a driving motor for driving the cutter bit assembly to move; the driving motor is connected to the flexible transmission piece and the flexible transmission piece transmits the driving motion provided by the driving motor to the cutter bit assembly.

8. The electrical tool according to claim 7 , wherein the driving mechanism further comprises torque detecting device for detecting torque of the driving motor, the torque detecting device being in a signal connection with the driving motor.

9. The electrical tool according to claim 7 , wherein the driving mechanism comprises a control circuit being in a signal connection with the driving motor and the speed adjustment switch, respectively.

10. The electrical tool according to claim 7 , wherein a power module is provided in the driving mechanism, and the power module comprises a storage battery and a power input interface to be connected with an external power source, the power input interface being electrically connected to the storage battery and the driving motor respectively.

11. The electrical tool according to claim 7 , wherein the cutter bit assembly further comprises an adapter for mounting the cutter, on which is provided a first protrusion and a cutter bit slot, and a first groove with a shape matching the first protrusion is provided on the flexible transmission piece,
wherein the adapter and the flexible transmission piece are in a matching connection through the first groove and the first protrusion, and the adapter and the cutter are in a matching connection through the cutter bit slot and an inserting end of the cutter.

12. The electrical tool according to claim 4 , wherein the cutter bit assembly further comprises a rotatable cutter bit and a rotary switch for starting and interrupting a rotation of the cutter bit.
