  • Patent number: 8500389
    Abstract: A gas driven motor includes a housing, a gas driven rotating member including a rotor and a rotor shaft carrying the rotor and journalled in a first bearing and a second bearing supported in the housing, and a speed governor for controlling a pressure gas inlet flow in response to the rotation speed of the rotating member. The first bearing includes a set of rolling elements, an outer race arranged in the housing and an inner race arranged on a shaft portion of the rotating member, the set of rolling elements being in contact with the races on which the rolling elements roll. The motor further includes a coupling device arranged to couple the speed governor to the rolling elements of the first bearing, thereby transferring the rotary motion from the rolling elements to the speed governor.

  • Patent number: 5839950
    Abstract: A portable power grinder for operating a wheel type of grinding tool, comprising an output spindle (12) drivingly connected to a rotation motor (11) and provided with a threaded coaxial bore (23) for receiving a grinding tool clamping screw (24) and with a radial support flange (25) for backing the grinding tool when clamped to the output spindle (12). An easily exchangeable tool support element (28) is sandwiched between the grinding tool and the support flange (25) and is provided with a coaxial through opening (30) for the clamping screw (24) and a forwardly directed tubular neck portion (27) for centering cooperation with a corresponding opening in the grinding tool.

  • Patent number: 5775999
    Abstract: A hydraulic torque impulse generator having a drive member (10) with a fluid chamber (12) and an output spindle (11) extending into the fluid chamber (12) and being provided with a movable seal element (19) and an axial seal ridge (22) for cooperation with oppositely disposed axial seal lands (13, 14) in the fluid chamber (12) to, thereby, divide the fluid chamber (12) into one high pressure compartment (H.P.) and one low pressure compartment (L.P.) during a limited angular interval of relative rotation between the drive member (10) and the output spindle (11), and a valve means comprising an elongate contact element (24, 44) which is supported in an axial groove (23, 43) in the seal ridge (22 ), which groove (23, 43) communicates with the high pressure compartment (H.P.) such that the contact element (24, 44) is urged into its sealing condition by the fluid pressure at pressure magnitudes above a certain level.
