Shock-absorbing housing for an electric tool

A shock-absorbing housing for an electric tool, the electric tool including an electric device that converts electric energy into kinetic energy, a power unit that outputs the kinetic energy, and a trigger device that is operable to activate the electric device, said shock-absorbing housing comprising:

• a shell unit including two shells that are arranged in a first direction, that are connected to each other, and that cooperatively define a mounting space adapted for accommodating the electric device, the power unit and the trigger device, each of said two shells having an inner surface that faces said mounting space, an outer surface that is opposite to said inner surface, and a plurality of limiting portions, said plurality of limiting portions of one of said two shells being respectively aligned with and spaced apart from said plurality of limiting portions of another one of said two shells in said first direction, each of said plurality of limiting portions having
• a first hole-defining section that protrudes from said inner surface, that is adapted to protrude toward the trigger device, and that defines a first hole, and
• a second hole-defining section that is opposite to said first hole-defining section and that defines a second hole, said first hole having a diameter that is greater than a diameter of said second hole, said first hole and said second hole being adapted to be respectively adjacent to and distal from the trigger device;
• and
• a shock-absorption unit connected to said shell unit and including a plurality of elastic bodies, said elastic bodies extending in said first direction and respectively through said plurality of limiting portions of said two shells, each of said plurality of elastic bodies including a first compressive section that extends through said first hole defined by said first hole-defining section of the respective one of said plurality of limiting portions of said two shells and that is spaced apart from said first hole-defining section of the respective one of said plurality of limiting portions of said two shells, and a second compressive section that is opposite to said first compressive section and that extends through said second hole defined by said second hole-defining section of the respective one of said plurality of limiting portions of said two shells, said first compressive section having a protruding portion that protrudes outwardly from said first hole-defining section of the respective one of said plurality of limiting portions of said two shells, said protruding portions of said first compressive sections of said elastic bodies being adapted for abutting against two lateral surfaces of the trigger device that are opposite to each other in said first direction.
