Protective Hood Adapter Device and Machine Tool System comprising the Protective Hood Adapter Device

Abstract

A protective hood adapter device for mounting on a machine tool, in particular a hand-held machine tool, is disclosed. The protective hood adapter device includes at least one attachment part for attaching to a protective hood of the machine tool. The protective hood adapter device further includes at least one fastening part which is mounted on the attachment part so as to be movable in at least one movement plane. The fastening part is provided to clamp the attachment part on the protective hood by way of a force oriented at least substantially perpendicularly to the movement plane.

1 . A protective hood adapter device for assembly on a machine tool, comprising:
 at least one attachment part for attaching configured to attach to a protective hood of the machine tool; and   at least one fastening part which is mounted on the at least one attachment part so as to be movable in at least one movement plane,   wherein the at least one fastening part is configured to brace the at least one attachment part on the protective hood by way of a force that is oriented so as to be at least substantially perpendicular to the at least one movement plane.   
     
     
         2 . The protective hood adapter device as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the at least one fastening part is mounted on the at least one attachment part so as to be rotatable or pivotable about a pivot axis that is in particular oriented so as to be at least substantially perpendicular to the at least one movement plane. 
     
     
         3 . The protective hood adapter device as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the at least one fastening part comprises at least two bracing faces which are disposed on two mutually facing internal sides of the at least one fastening part. 
     
     
         4 . The protective hood adapter device as claimed in  claim 1 , further comprising at least one latching element which, for fixing the at least one fastening part to the at least one attachment part, proceeds from the at least one fastening part or the at least one attachment part, extends in a direction that is oriented so as to be at least substantially perpendicular to the at least one movement plane. 
     
     
         5 . The protective hood adapter device as claimed in  claim 2 , further comprising at least one guide unit which is disposed so as to be spaced apart from the pivot axis and is configured to guide the at least one fastening part on the at least one attachment part in a movement relative to the at least one attachment part. 
     
     
         6 . The protective hood adapter device as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the at least one fastening part and/or the at least one attachment part has at least one retaining element which, by way of a retaining force, is configured to retain the at least one fastening part in precisely one non-braced position relative to the at least one attachment part. 
     
     
         7 . The protective hood adapter device as claimed in  claim 2 , further comprising at least one delimiting unit which is configured to delimit a mutual relative movement of the at least one attachment part and of the at least one fastening part about the pivot axis to a maximum angle of at most 60°. 
     
     
         8 . The protective hood adapter device as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein:
 the at least one attachment part has at least one attachment face configured to attach to the protective hood, and   a maximum spacing of the at least one attachment face oriented so as to be at least substantially perpendicular to the at least one movement plane from an external face of the at least one attachment part and/or of the at least one fastening part oriented so as to be at least substantially parallel to the at least one movement plane is at most 7 mm.   
     
     
         9 . The protective hood adapter device as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein:
 the at least one attachment part has at least one external contour which, when viewed at least substantially perpendicularly to the at least one movement plane, is configured so as to be arcuate about an imaginary center, and   the at least one attachment part, when viewed at least substantially perpendicularly to the at least one movement plane, is disposed so as to be spaced apart from the center.   
     
     
         10 . The protective hood adapter device as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein:
 the at least one attachment part has (i) at least one attachment face configured to attach to the protective hood, and (ii) at least one receptacle clearance for protecting configured to protect the at least one fastening part during operation of the machine tool, and   the receptacle clearance is disposed on an external side of the at least one attachment part that faces away from the at least one attachment face.   
     
     
         11 . The protective hood adapter device as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the at least the attachment part is at least largely configured from a metal. 
     
     
         12 . A machine tool system, comprising
 at least one machine tool which has at least one protective hood, and   at least one protective hood adapter device as claimed in  claim 1 .   
     
     
         13 . The protective hood adapter device as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the machine tool is a hand-held machine tool. 
     
     
         14 . The protective hood adapter device as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the at least the attachment part is substantially completely configured from a metal.
