  • Publication number: 20070181321
    Abstract: A hammer drill with rolling contact at the contact surfaces for transmission of axial force between a drive shaft and wave race. By using roller bearings, line contact is obtained. The area of contact is thus close to zero as opposed to a relatively large area in engagement systems using toothed surfaces. Use of point or line contact reduces heat generation and reduces energy loss due to friction.
    Type: Application
