This didn't go quite to plan. The screw that holds the chuck onto the output shaft seems to have major threadlock on it, so I didn't get to explore the final clutch stage internally
But it's revealed the PCB module that we're all interested in anyway. I'll leave the proper mechanical teardowns to my Canadian RU-vid-bro AvE the tool-teardown master.
First thoughts on the 20V version of the electronics are that the base module only switches off power to the variable speed trigger when it detects a battery with low charge or overheating. Its power supply deserves further investigation, as the module is always powered when the battery is connected, so my thought that it might use a simple resistive dropper isn't an efficient way of doing that.
The thermistor input that enables the tool seems to operate between a resistance of 2K and 68K. The thermistor can be switched off by the battery, so it may be using that to stop the tool when the battery is low.
If you enjoy these videos you can help support the channel with a dollar for coffee, cookies and random gadgets for disassembly at:- www.bigclive.co...
This also keeps the channel independent of RU-vid's algorithm quirks, allowing it to be a bit more dangerous and naughty.

The RS-775 is an absolute classic power drill motor, there was one in my grandfather's decades-old 14.4v Ni-Cd Ryobi drill, and I've seen it in everything from desktop engravers to PCB drills. The LM358 of palm-sized DC motors. That mechanical mode switch built into the gearbox, with the plastic housing and long lever is also a very common design. I would not be surprised if it were just one company in China sucking up all the power tool contracts for the past 50 years. Those chucks usually have a retaining screw driven down the front (open the jaws wide and look down the barrel), after removal of which you just clamp an L-shaped piece of metal like an allen wrench/hex key down in the jaws and give the cantilevered arm a sharp whack counterclockwise.

@stevewilliams2498 Год назад

RS-775? Presumably bigger brother to the equally ubiquitous Mabuchi RS-540 as used in countless radio controlled cars and planes?

@Umski Год назад

I had to pull apart my Einhell hedge trimmer and the weapon of choice in that seems to be the RS-550 - the brushes had worn out completely due to arcing after 4 years of light use - the brush assemblies seem to be ten a plenty on the bay and the like, so easy fix - suspect most would dump the entire thing in the bin and buy a new one since Einhell don't sell just the motor and a new unit-only is around 50 quid. Interestingly however, the motor is rated at around 60W from what I've found - yet it works as effectively as a 25CC petrol trimmer and probably a 2000W corded unit - puzzling!

@Oceanus_Rex Год назад

The ball bearings are the adjustable torque clutch. The ball bearings drive the ring with the ramps on it. As you spin the ring, it applies more compression to the springs behind the ball bearings. This in turn means that the more torque can be transmitted before the bearings climb the ramps and the clutch slips. AvE has a neat video where he disassembles a similar drill and explains the full drive train.

@mrrants Год назад

A few years back we used the motors and gearboxes as drive units for 12kg Fighting Robots (Robot Wars style machines). This involved disassembling cordless drills. One of the first tasks would be to clamp the chuck, then use a large allen key or screwdriver to loosen the LEFT HANDED treaded screw/bolt. Sometimes they are held in with a dab of thread lock so little percussive persuasion can help. The noise is most likely the motor brake, somewhere in the circuitry it will bridge the motor positive and negative stalling the motor. The "clack" will be the shock going through in the gearbox as it comes to a dead stop.

@HarryMakesThings Год назад

Hah! I was going to say the same thing. Kinda sad in a way they've slightly fallen to the wayside as more purpose built small planetary gearboxes can be had for peanuts on aliepress or people don't need much reduction at all with fancy current limited BLDC low KV sensored systems that get away with a single spur gear stage. I still love my drill drives and will snap up the old dewalt drills people chuck on ebay for pennies when the NiCads die out. Small world.

Probably no help to you now, but here's a good trick for removing small drill chucks: Do it before you tear the drill apart. Remove the retaining screw (amost always a left-hand thread), then chuck the largest allen key that will fit into the drill on, and wind it out in low-speed reverse. The retaining screws usually have a tonne of blue loc-tite on them, but come loose with minimal pursuasion if you turn it the correct way.

@asciimation Год назад

I took a similar one apart to use to drive an oil pump for a DIY jet engine. Very similar construction. They basically fall to bits when you take them apart so they are hard to reuse for other things. I did get the chuck off mine but I can't remember how now. And yes, it was threadlocked on!

@chrkaye1 Год назад

Not sure if anyone commented but the screw in the chuck is left handed then the chuck unscrews from the shaft normally you may need to close the chuck on a large Allen wrench to break it lose. The ball bearings are part of the clutch and the breakaway as the ball climbs the ramp. You did miss the one way clutch that locks the rotation of the output shaft so the single handed chuck works. It happens when a rotational load is applied from the outside of the tool. the hammer portion is very close to the chuck when you get that far.

@eddiebrandrick4374 Год назад

I have one of these. The clunking sound will be from the electronic brake. Unfortunately the chuck comes un- done randomly and drops the bits. The original Jacobs design chucks with self locking work well but the Chinese knock off's don't.

To get the chuck off . normally when you open the jaws there's a screw ( phillips or a torx 20 in nicad B and D ) these are left hand thread righty loosey left tighty , then the chuck is itself is lefty loosey ( std thread ) . You can normally loosen the internal screw by holding the chuck , getting the chuck off is easy when the drill is complete , just grip a large allen key and hit it with a mallett/palm of hand . The left/right threads are so no matter which direction the drill is being used , 1 of the threads is tightening .

@paranoiia8 Год назад

12:30 I, in other hand think that gearbox(if its metal or plastic parts) and electronic components decide if tool is good quality, as almost all tools I had died because of dead trigger/mosfet part or cheap gearbox module that had plastic gears, Most of time when actual motor died, was because of not motor itself(as most of brand tools and cheap tools use the same motor) but side components that cook motor in some way, or really bad vent grids placement that collect dust that went into motor/electronic. Like I had cheap copy of dremel that worked really well(as it had exactly the same motor as dremel I had, even markings where the same) but someone put few vent holes on case near speed control switch or near motor fan inside and often metal particles went inside, short it and motor go berserk in full speed or some particle go between magnets inside and I had nice sounds straight from hell...

@errolfoster1101 Год назад

the chuck retaining screw is left handed thread to stop it unscrewing in normal use

@EQINOX187 Год назад

When you tried to turn the chuck but it was locked up this is by design and all drills with a twist lock chuck do this, if they did not then you would never be able to tighten the chuck so when the drill is not powered it locks so you can tighten the chuck and when you pull the trigger it disengages the lock and spins, as for the loud noise when the drill stops again this is quite normal because if you are using the drill and remove your finger from the trigger it will engage the lock mechanism stopping the rotation instantly resulting in the clack noise .

@steviebboy69 Год назад

I had an old GMC drill and it would spin freely and I would go in the opposite direction to loosen or tighten the bit. But anyway I used the old GMC to spin start the mower till it wore out as in no brushes left. The new ALDI one with the lock chuck also locks at speed when the mower starts violently jerking the drill in the hand, so I never used it for this again.

@BjornV78 Год назад

9:03 You probably know this, but the chuck threads are usually left-hand threads. Last year i had a PowerPlus drill with a burned motor, i did get the central screw with left-hand threads out of the chuck, but the chuck itself did not came loose (probably a conical press fit as well), so i could not open the plastic shell that contained the motor and had to buy a new battery drill.

@petersage5157 Год назад

Considering how little practice you have with BOLTRs, I'd say this went better than expected. I was quite impressed with how quickly you figured out the forward/reverse shift; it's actually quite similar to the reverse linkage a typical manual transmission.

@ManWithBeard1990 Год назад

The loud clack that drills sometimes have when they stop is a result of there being a special clutch that prevents the drill from being back-driveable, i.e. the motor can turn the chuck but you can't turn the chuck by hand to spin the motor. The reason it's there is to allow you to tighten and loosen the chuck without spinning the motor instead, but it does mean some drills are less suitable for running heavy attachments with lots of inertia. You can majorly fuck up your drill, or your wrists that way. By the way, the screw down the center of the chuck is often left-hand thread, I'm told. You might want to try loosening it the other way.

@lImbus924 Год назад

like loosening the wheel nuts when changing tires on a car is best done before the car is hoisted, the chuck screw is easiest (still hard) undone when the gearbox reduction and motor are still attached.

@albanana683 Год назад

As with removing the screw holding the chuck, watch out for some old cars with LH threaded wheel nuts on the left (I think) side. My 1968 Alfa had this, and I had to stand over the mechanics in the tyre shop to stop them buggering up the studs and lugs. When I had to install longer studs for alloy wheels, they were all RH threaded.

Thanks Clive. Another great tear down on how a tool works. Handy to know what’s inside if one of mine ever has an issue. Have Aldi/Lidl 20v tools and some mains units as well and never had any issue with the quality etc. Also have mainstream brands and frankly not found much difference except the horrendous cost of main brand units. Strange fact many modern if not all keyless chucks have an unique feature. After tightening by powering up the drill as I normally do. If one then manually attempts to open the chuck with a sharp twist of the hand there is a distinctive “click” which I’m told “ locks “ the chuck. Since I discovered this I have to admit I have not had a hammer action concrete bit come loose in the chuck.

Most of these brushed drills make a clacking sound when the trigger is released. Releasing the trigger applies a short across then motor to create and inductive brake. When the inductive brake is applied to the motor, I causes the multi-stage gear set to rattle as the backlash between all the gears is taken up.

@steviebboy69 Год назад

When you do this there is a big spark or flash at the brushes, well in my case a brushed motor. I always think that this in time would stuff the brushes so I would release the trigger slow to avoid it.

@horrovac Год назад

The removal of the chuck is a rather brutal procedure which involves putting the tool in a vice and smacking the allen key in the screw with a (heavy) hammer. Not for the faint of heart. I guess an impact driver might do the trick as well. It should be a left-hand thread, so you loosen it by turning it clockwise. Seeing that you have already destroyed it, you might as well give it a go. The reason why the chuck does not move unless if you take out the last metal bit from the gearbox out is because it's not supposed to. It's the brake, which enables you to use the keyless chuck by providing something to tighten it against. It allows the chuck to turn only when actuated from the gearbox side. So if you put the brake in again, make sure it does not fall out, put the gearbox housing in a vice, insert an allen key into the chuck screw and whack it clockwise with a lot of force, it should come loose. Don't expect to see anything exciting though, there's just the short axle and a bearing. Whatever made it stop with a clunk is elsewhere (I suspect the brake).

@WilliamWallace14051 Год назад

It is also common for the screw holding the chuck to be lefthand thread.

@Jeff44 Год назад

Indeed it is done as horrovac tells us. It's really not that hard when you have typical diy mechanic tools. An impact driver is a boon for tight screws, when you know how to use them. After removal of the lhthreaded screw, you tighten the chuck down onto a chunky allen key and(drill body in vise) unscrew the chuck rhthread as normal with a bit of tube on the allen key, or hitting the allen key with a hammer.

I would love to see an expensive one torn down, and the differences, if any, noted.

@andy70d35 Год назад

Clive, good tear down. NOW let's see you put it back together and make it work.

@guygordon2780 Год назад

While BigClive has the Explosive-Proof Pie Plate, Ave has the Healing Bench. Don't know where those are available at retail.

Chuck screw is left... oh, everyone already said that. "Electronic" brake is actually mechanical, good description here ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-gjtk2liJ0Gk.html

Hey Big Clive, where can you get one of these universal "resistor boxes" in the US? Very cool device.

@bigclivedotcom Год назад

I don't think they're available anymore. That one came from Tandy about 30 years ago.

@ruthlynnsavoy6680 Год назад

@@bigclivedotcom Thank you all the same.

The chuck screw has a left hand thread !!! Those drills clatter if you change the Hammer/Drill adjustment when it's running or not fully swiftched to one or the other !!!! I think they are really clever with all the cog wheels but you can't call it a Hammer Drill !!!! It's too flimsy !!!! An SDS Drill is a Hammer Drill !!!! It doesn't look like there was anything wrong with that drill !!!! My neighbour makes Jewellery out of Dog Turds that he finds in the Street !!!! But nobody want's to buy them !!!! I can't think why !!!!! Years ago I had one of those drills and the main drive cog split in half !!!! So I only use very powerful drills to drill into Metal or Stone, Cocrete etc !!!! Those cheap drills are OK if you want to drill a Hole in a Plastic Bucket !!!!

I replaced the chuck on this as soon as I got it, the jaws are so soft it really struggles to grip has bits

Loving another Big Guy hilarious Clivie-ism -- Avalanche. Vice of Knowledge possibly may have gotton that tight twat of a screw open (stationary vices give more leverage).

@genevasimmonds8208 Год назад

yep chuck needs to be removed first. at lest when it comes to the better branded units.

@alan-sk7ky Год назад

These and the Impact gun (at least) are made by Positec/Worx, and the Worx tools will happily use the Ferrex batteries - the non 'active energy' ones I should point out ;-)

Clive, AvE and DiodeGoneWild all need to collaborate on a charity record, doing a parody of a Taylor Swift song -- "This is never ever going back together!"

@astranger448 Год назад

Bit late to the party I know. These drills have a locking mechanism so you can tighten the keyless chuck, it's the 2 small round pins I can see on your pile o parts. When you rotate the shaft by hand at 'chucktightening' speed they will hold firm the drive shaft so you can apply force, without this lock the chuck would simply turn when you try to tighten. When the motor drives the shaft these 2 pins will centrifugal out of the way so everything turns normally.

I've got a Milwaukee bettery which fell off a ladder and the batteries very intermittent, even though there's nothing wrong with it. I've been needing to try this so I've got another battery. Something I've noticed when it comes to Li-ion tool batteries is that when it start to loose power n gets a little slower, it cuts out. So I'll find out what resistance is needed and when it starts to slow down, I'll just take it off n stick it on charge and I'm guessing the battery charger won't know any difference, but I'll have to cross that bridge when it comes 🤔

@bigclivedotcom Год назад

If you over discharge a battery it may be rejected by the charger.

@veivoli Год назад

20 volts, eh? Hmm... I guess that means that my car has a 14 volt electrical system since a fully charged lead-acid battery is about 13.8 volts.

Pretty nice quality for what it costs.

@incy55 Год назад

maybe you should leave the mechanical to AvE!

@playdav485 Год назад

that uses a all metal gearbox looks like it might have lasted a while

@deaultusername Год назад

how about a schematic of the insides of that switch, its got a lot of components and I think thats my problem. impact gun (same handle side electronics) spin up at full speed but fails after like 5 seconds while at low speed position on trigger it will keep going just no power.
