Elastic connection between housing parts of motor-driven power tools

摘要

An elastic connection is established between housing parts of a power-driven machine tool by an elastic connecting element which is attached in form-locking fashion to at least one of the housing parts to be connected, in such a way that the connecting element has a land penetrating a breach of the housing part, and this land connects covering parts of the connecting element that are located in coincidence with the breach.

主权项

1. A motor-driven power tool, comprising:
an elastic connecting element including (i) a first connector component, (ii) a second connector component, and (iii) a central portion interposed between the first connector component and the second connector component; a first power tool housing part including a first peripheral region defining a first through-passage; and a second power tool housing part including a second peripheral region defining a second through-passage, said first peripheral region being spaced apart from the second peripheral region so as to define a gap therebetween, wherein the first connector component includes (i) a first covering part positioned on a first side of the first peripheral region, (ii) a second covering part positioned on a second opposite side of the first peripheral region, and (iii) a first link extending through the first through-passage and interconnecting the first covering part and the second covering part, wherein the second connector component includes (i) a third covering part positioned on a first side of the second peripheral region, (ii) a fourth covering part positioned on a second opposite side of the second peripheral region, and (iii) a second link extending through the second through-passage and interconnecting the third covering part and the fourth covering part, wherein the central portion interconnects the first connector component and the second connector component so as to span the gap defined between the first peripheral region and the second peripheral region, and wherein the first and second power tool housing parts are separated from one another and are connected by the elastic connecting element.
