A TORQUE INTENSIFYING TOOL FOR TIGHTENING AND LOOSENING THREADED CONNECTORS

Abstract A torque intensifying tool for tightening and loosening threaded connectors has at least one torque intensifier means having a torque intensifier housing portion, having input means and having a first output means and a second output means, a drive operatively connected with the input means for transmitting a torque from the drive through the intensifying means to a threaded connector, so that in one mode of operation the torque intensifier housing portion together with the first and the second output means turn in the same direction and the same speed and torque as the input means, and in another mode of operation the torque intensifier housing portion together with one of the first and second output means receives a turning force in one direction while the other one of the first and second output means receives an equal turning force in the opposite direction at a lower speed but higher torque than the input means, and so that one of the first and second output means turns in the one mode and in the another mode while the other of the first and second output means turns in the one mode and reacts in the another mode.
Full Text BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a torque intensifying tool.
In tightening fasteners, once the nut hits the flange surface
the turning degree to tighten it up is very little. What the customer wants,
on the other hand, is high turning speed so that a nut can be run down or
off very fast.
The usual impact wrenches, which provide a high run down
and run off speed, have the disadvantage that they are not very accurate
and very slow once the nut hits the flange face. Torque power tools are
torque accurate, but relatively slow in run up and run down of fasteners.
Yet, still they are faster than impact guns once the nut is turned on the
flange face. Torque power tools usually have an air, electric or hydraulic
motor. It turns gears, which reduce the speed but increases the relatively
low torque output of the motor. The higher the torque, the larger the gear
ratio and obviously the slower the speed with which the nut is turned. It is,
therefore, common to have a two speed mechanisms; one for run down
and run off and one for the final higher torque.
It is known that running a nut down takes usually less torque
than running it off due to possible thread corrosion when loosening a nut.
2

This means that the torque derived by means of an air motor used for
smaller air wrenches might have to be increased with a small intensifier to
increase the turning torque provided by the motor without towering the run
up and run off speed too much. For most hand held torque power tools
where the motor housing is independent to the gear housing it becomes
important that the free motor-turning torque does not exceed the hand
torque resistance or the tool's motor housing can not be held and starts
spinning in the hand.
There are many motor driven torque multipliers in the market
and some of them have two speed mechanisms, some of them react on
the bolt tip, others with a reaction arm. What they all have in common is
that no matter what torque or speed is applied by them their gear housing
turns in the opposite direction to the output shaft. None provides a run
down or run off speed where the entire gear housing together with the
inner gear assembly and the output drive turn at the same high speed in
the same direction.
There are also portable power driven tools in the market
such as disclosed in US 2,569,244 where a push of the tool onto the
fastener increases or decreases the air inlet and thus the torque output.
There is, however, none in the market where a push onto the fastener
changes from turning the gear housing, its gears and its output shaft in the
3

same direction at the same speed to applying a turning force to the gears
and the output shaft in one direction and simultaneously an opposite
turning force to the gear housing. There are also portable power driven
tools in the market where the torque of the motor can be reduced to
increase the motor speed and thus the speed of the tool.
Also, the two speed mechanism of motor driven torque
multipliers usually works in a way that one or several planet gear stages
rae disconnected so that merely the remaining ones function. This
reduces the gear ratio to obtain a higher speed and lower torque and so
that once the nut stalls out all planet gear stages become functional to
achieve the higher torque at a lower speed. Nevertheless, the housing
still wants to react in the opposite direction to the turning direction of the
gears in low ratio and high ratio. In other words, while the drive and the
gears receive a turning force in one direction, the housing receives the
same turning force in the opposite direction. The problem with that is that
a high speed, the gears and the output shaft turn so fast in the gear
housing that almost all turning parts require bearings, which makes the
tool larger and heavier.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to provide
a torque intensifying tool which eliminates the disadvantage of the prior
art.
The torque intensifying tool in accordance with the present
invention is based on the idea to stop the usual equal, simultaneous but
opposite turning of action and reaction when high nut turning speed is
required so as to avoid that almost all turning parts require bearings.
In keeping with these objects and with others which will
become apparent hereinafter, one feature of the present invention resides,
briefly stated, in a torque intensifying tool for tightening and loosening
threaded connectors, comprising torque intensifier means having a torque
intensifier housing portion, having input means and having a first output
means and a second output means; a drive operatively connected with
said input means for transmitting a torque from said drive through said
intensifying means to a threaded connector, so that in one mode of
operation when the fastener is subjected to a relatively low turning friction
said torque intensifier housing portion together with said first and said
second output means turn in the same direction and the same speed and
torque as said input means, and in another mode of operation when the
5

fastener is subjected to a relatively high turning friction which can exceed
the torque of said input means, said torque intensifier housing portion
together with one of said first and second output means receives a turning
force in one direction while the other one of said first and second output
means receives an equal turning force in the opposite direction at a lower
speed but higher torque than said input means, and so that one of said
first and second output means turns in said one mode and in said another
mode while the other of said first and second output means turns in said
one mode and reacts in said another mode.
In the inventive tool in order for the housing, the gears of the
torque intensifier and the input-and output means to turn in the same
direction at the same speed, the usual equal and opposite turning of parts
has to be blocked temporarily. This can be done in many way. For
example, one can block the gears so that they cannot freely turn in the
housing, or one blocks the planet gears so that the sun gear cannot turn
them, or one blocks the housing and the output shaft so that they cannot
turn independently from one another, or one blocks the action drive and
the reaction drive or their attachment, or one blocks one part of the
fastener with the other if both are to be turned down together and then
turned independently from one another, etc.
6

To achieve the same result without turning the housing, the
gears and the output and input shaft together would be quite complex
simply because one would have to cut out all or at least all but one gear
cage temporarily, whereas in accordance with the present invention the
entire intensifier housing is cut off temporarily by merely blocking two
usually opposite turning parts.
With the tool in accordance with the present invention,
during turning of one part of the threaded connector such as a nut and
applying an action force, a reaction force can be compensated by reacting
against a neighboring object for example against a neighboring nut,
against another part of the threaded connector for example a washer,
against a further part of the threaded connector for example a sleeve, etc.
The novel features which are considered as characteristic for
the present invention are set forth in particular in the appended claims.
The invention itself, however, both as to its construction and its method of
operation, together with additional objects and advantages thereof, will be
best understood from the following description of specific embodiments
when read in connection with the accompanying drawings.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
A torque intensifying tool for tightening and loosening
threaded connectors has drive means which are identified as a whole with
reference numeral 1. The drive means 1 can have a drive housing 2 and
a drive which is identified with reference numeral 3. The drive means 1
can be formed as a motor drive means, in which case it can include a
motor. It is also possible that the drive means 1 is formed as manual drive
means, for example as a torque wrench. The drive means 1 generate a
torque which is to be transmitted for operation. In the embodiment shown
in Figures 1 a, 1 b the drive housing 2 has a handle 4 which is to be held by
an operator and provided with switching means 5 for switching the drive
means between an inoperative position and an operative position.
The torque intensifying tool in accordance with the present
invention further has at least one torque intensifier means which are
identified as a whole with reference numeral 6. The torque intensifier
means 6 have a torque intensifier housing 7 and gear means connected to
the drive means 1. In the embodiment shown in Figures 1a, 1b the gear
means include a sun gear 8 having a shaft which forms an input means,
planetary gears 9 and a planet cage 10. The torque intensifier housing 7
is provided with an internal gear 11 which extends only over a longitudinal
portion of the housing 7.
9

The torque intensifying tool in accordance with the present
invention further has a driving element which is identified as a whole with
reference numeral 12 and forms a first output means. The driving element
12 has a driving part 13 which can be formed for example as a square
drive and a rear part 14 which is drivingly connected with the torque
intensifier means, for example by interengaging splines. The connection
of the drive means 1 with the torque intensifier means 6 and the driving
element 12 provides transmission of torque from the drive means to the
driving element. The torque intensifier means 6 can be configured to
provide any desired intensification of a torque generated by the drive
means 1.
The torque intensifying tool further has a reaction element
which is identified with reference numeral 15 and forms a second output
means. The reaction element 15 is provided with means 16 for
connecting with an element reacting against a stationary object, for
example a reaction arm, for example with splines. The reaction element
15 is non rotatably connected with the torque intensifier housing 7. In the
embodiment shown in Figures 1a and 1b, the reaction element 15 is
formed integral one-piece with the torque intensifier housing.
The torque intensifying tool has two different modes of
operation. In one mode of operation when the torque is transmitted from
10

the drive means 1 through the torque intensifier means to the driving
element 12 the driving element 12 provides a lower torque and a higher
speed of turning. This is advantageous when it is necessary to turn one
part of the threaded connector, for example a nut, on another part of the
threaded connector, for example a bolt, with a high speed until the nut is
seated on a washer or on the face of an application. In this mode of
operation the torque is transmitted from the drive means, through the
torque intensifier housing 7, the gears of the torque intensifier, the second
output means or the reaction element 15, and the first output means or the
driving element 12, so that the torque intensifier housing 7 together with
the first output means and the second output means turn in the same
direction and at the same torque and speed as the input means.
In another mode of operation the torque is transmitted from
the drive means 1 through the torque intensifier means to the driving
element 12 so that the torque intensifier housing 7 together with the
second output means or the reaction element 15 receives a turning force
in one direction, while the first output means or the driving element 12
receives an equal turning force in the opposite direction at a lower speed
but higher torque then the input means.
For switching the tool between these two different modes, in
the embodiment shown in Figures 1a, 1b for example pushing elements
11

17, formed as pins and the like are provided. When the nut is seated on
the washer, the pushing elements 17, which in Figure 1a illustrating one
mode of operation extend outwardly beyond the torque intensifier housing
7, are pushed in an axial direction as shown in Figure 1b, and the planet
cage 10 which was previously engaged with the internal gear 11 of the
torque intensifier housing 7 disengages from the internal gear, so that the
first output means or the driving element 12 and the second output means
or the reaction element 15 can turn in opposite directions. It is to be
understood that different means for switching the torque intensifying tool
between two different modes of operation are possible.
In accordance with the present invention in the torque
intensifying tool the torque intensifier housing 7 and the drive housing 2
are functionally connected with one another. In particular, the torque
intensifier housing 7 can turn relative to the drive housing 2. For this
purpose, as shown in Figures 1a, 1b, a part of the drive housing 2, which
can contain additional torque intensifier means, can extend into the torque
intensifier housing 7 and be supported in the latter through a bearing 18.
With this construction, the torque intensifier housing 7 can freely turn
relative to the drive housing 2. The drive housing 2 can be formed as an
enclosure, as a support, as a frame, etc. for the drive. This also can be
done by a switch automatically once the torque required exceeds a given
force.
12

In another embodiment of the present invention which is
shown in Figures 2a-2c the first output means is formed as a driving
socket 21 which has a portion 22 with a polygonal inner surface to engage
the nut and a portion 23 with a polygonal outer shape. The second output
means is also formed as a reaction socket having a portion 24 with a
polygonal shape for engaging a neighbouring object, for example a
washer, and a portion 25 with an inner polygonal opening configured to
cooperate with the polygonal portion 23 of the driving socket. The driving
socket has a receiving opening 26 in which a square drive 27 of a tool can
be received. A spline portion 28 of the tool is received in an inwardly
spline adaptor 29 which is non-rotatably connected with the reaction
socket.
The driving socket is axially movable relative to the reaction
socket. For one mode of operation the portion 23 of the driving socket
engages in the portion 25 of the reaction socket so that the sockets
become non-rotatably connected with one another as shown in Figure 2a
and the torque of the drive means 1 is transmitted through the torque
intensifier to the driving socket at the same speed and torque as the input
means. In this mode the first and second output means turn.
13

When as shown in Figure 2b the driving socket is axially
displaced for example so that its portion 23 is disengaged from the portion
25 of the reaction socket, the driving socket and the reaction socket are no
longer non-rotatably connected with one another in the other mode of
operation and they turn in opposite directions with equal turning forces at
a lower speed but higher torque than the input means. In this mode the
first output means or the driving socket turn, while the second output
means or the reaction socket reacts.
In this embodiment in one mode of operation the torque
intensifier housing together with the driving socket and reaction socket
turn in the same direction and at the same speed and torque as the input
means, wherein in the other mode of operation the torque intensifier
housing together the reaction socket receives a turning force in one
direction while the driving socket receives the turning force in the opposite
direction.
It is to be understood that in the other mode the first and
second output means can both act as driving means or reaction means in
opposite directions depending on the application.
In the embodiment shown in Figure 3 a nut to be tightened
or loosened is identified with reference numeral 31, a bolt on which the nut
14

is to be tightened or loosened is identified with reference numeral 32, and
a washer is identified with reference numeral 33 and has a radially outer
holding portion 34 and a radially inner portion 35 engageable with the bolt
32. Means is provided for transmitting torque in the two modes of
operation. They can be formed for example as connecting pins 36 which
engage in aligned openings 38 of the nut and the washer.
In one mode of operation the pins 36 non-rotatably connect
the nut with the washer so that they turn together with the same speed
and torque as the input means. After the nut is seated on the washer, and
a torque increases, the pins 36 are disintegrated, for example sheared off,
so that the nut is turned with a higher torque and a lower speed than the
input means while the washer provides a reaction.
It is to be understood that the at least two modes as
described herein are merely examples. Further modes can be added to
said one or said other modes and/or said input means and/or output
means.
While the torque intensifying tool described hereinabove is a
two speed tool, the present invention is not limited to merely two speeds
but can have multiple speeds, as shown for example in Figures 4a, 4b.
For example the drive operatively connected with the input means of the
15

torque intensifier means can be configured as an intermediate drive
housing 50 so that the drive includes for example the drive housing 2 and
the intermediate drive housing 50.
When two usually opposite turning parts are temporarily
connected with one another in the torque intensifier means or at an end
thereof and the intermediate drive housing 50, which contains at least one
intensifier unit such as for example a planetary gear stage, is connected
with the torque intensifier housing so as not to rotate relative to it a), the
turning of the torque intensifier housing together with the first and second
output means is at a speed and torque of what is derived from the drive
housing portion 2. When the torque required to turn the fastener exceeds
that torque derived from the drive housing 2 and the intermediate drive
housing 50 is non-rotatably connected with the drive housing 2
b), and rotatably connected with the torque intensifier housing, the turning
of the torque intensifier housing 7 together with the first and second output
means is at a lower speed but higher torque of what is derived from the
drive housing 2. When the turning friction of the fastener is such that the
tool switches from one mode to another, the torque applied to the fastener
is one more times increased while the turning speed is further decreased.
In Figure 4a the intermediate drive housing portion 50 is non-rotatably
connected with the torque intensifier housing 7, while in Figure 4b the
16

intermediate drive housing 50 is non-rotatably connected with the drive
housing 2.
It will be understood that each of the elements described
above, or two or more together, may also find a useful application in other
types of constructions differing from the types described above.
While the invention has been illustrated and described as
embodied in a motor-driven torque intensifier, it is not intended to be
limited to the details shown, since various modifications and structural
changes may be made without departing in any way from the spirit of the
present invention.
Without further analysis, the foregoing will so fully reveal the
gist of the present invention that others can, by applying current
knowledge, readily adapt it for various applications without omitting
features that, from the standpoint of prior art, fairly constitute essential
characteristics of the generic or specific aspects of this invention.
What is claimed as new and desired to be protected by
Letters Patent is set forth in the appended claims.
