FLOW PATH DIVERTER FOR PNEUMATIC TOOL

The present invention relates broadly to a flow diverter disposed in a plenum area of a motor cylinder chamber (also referred to as kidney ports). The flow diverter acts as a barrier between a main inlet to the motor and an inlet to the cylinder chamber, and directs air or fluid to vane lifter ports of the motor before the air or fluid flows to the inlet to the cylinder chamber. In addition, the flow diverter can serve to regulate air or fluid flowing into the cylinder chamber to control power of the tool. The flow diverter allows for numerous options of where the main inlet to the motor can be positioned and provides a means of regulating the air or fluid flowing into the cylinder chamber. 本发明宽泛地涉及一种设置在马达气缸室的增压区域(也称为肾形端口)中的引流器。引流器充当通向马达的主入口和通向气缸室的入口之间的屏障，并且在空气或流体流向气缸室的入口之前，将空气或流体引导到马达的叶片升降器端口。另外，引流器可用于调节流入气缸室的空气或流体，以控制工具的动力。引流器允许对通向马达的主入口的定位进行多种选择，并提供一种调节流入气缸室的空气或流体的手段。
