Abstract
An impact power tool including a housing, a motor supported by the housing, a gear assembly driven by the motor, and an impact assembly driven by the gear assembly. The impact mechanism includes a camshaft, an anvil, and a hammer. The camshaft is coupled to the output of gear assembly and rotates about a rotation axis. The anvil is rotatably supported by the housing and can receive a tool bit. The hammer rotates and moves axially along the camshaft and is configured to selectively impact the anvil. When a reaction torque is greater than a threshold value is applied to the anvil, the hammer moves in a first direction away from the anvil and simultaneously compresses a compressible fluid. At a maximum distance from the anvil, the compressible fluid begins to exert a restoring force on the hammer and moves the hammer in a second direction towards the anvil.
