Patent number: 10099351Abstract: A hand held power tool, for delivering a torque to a joint, includes a housing that houses a motor arranged to drive an input shaft; an output shaft arranged to provide a torque to the joint; and a planetary gear connecting the input shaft to the output shaft. A flywheel is arranged to rotate freely with respect to the housing. A cam block, loosely fitted inside the housing, is rotatively connected to a part of the planetary gear and connected to the housing via a cam profile, wherein an interaction between the cam block and the cam profile will force the cam block into contact with the flywheel when the cam block is rotated. Thus, any counterforces acting on the output shaft will be provided to the flywheel via the planetary gear, such that the operator will not need to provide any counterforces.Type: GrantFiled: June 19, 2014Date of Patent: October 16, 2018Assignee: Atlas Copco Industrial Technique ABInventor: Robin McGougan

Publication number: 20160184983Abstract: A hand held power tool, for delivering a torque to a joint, includes a housing, a motor, an output shaft, and a flywheel which is arranged in bearings with respect to the housing. A selection gear is arranged to selectively connect the motor to either the output shaft, or the flywheel, such that the flywheel may be set to rotate before a tightening operation and wherein the rotation of the flywheel may be used to decrease the counter forces acting on the power tool.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 19, 2014Publication date: June 30, 2016Applicant: ATLAS COPCO INDUSTRIAL TECHNIQUE ABInventor: Robin MCGOUGAN
