A tool device for a hand-held power tool, which can be operated such that the tool device is rotated about an output shaft of a tool-holding device, has at least one connecting device, which is detachably connected to an output shaft of the power tool. The connecting device is fastened to the tool-holding device so that a drive axis of the output shaft and a tool axis of rotation substantially coincide. The connecting device has a cut-out and at least one clamping wing, which at least partly bounds the cut-out in the radial direction of the tool axis of rotation and which is bounded substantially in the direction radial to the tool axis of rotation by a first bounding edge, which lies on a first bounding circle around the tool axis of rotation. The clamping wing extends at least substantially along a plane orthogonal to the tool axis of rotation.

The invention refers to a functional unit (27) for a hand-guided power tool (1), in particular in the form of a polisher or a sander. The functional unit (27) comprises a base element (28), a first attachment member (29) for releasable attachment of the base element (28) to a motor driven tool shaft (23) of the power tool (1), a working element (11) adapted for working a surface of a workpiece during use of the power tool (1), and a second attachment member (30) for attachment of the working element (11) to the base element (28). In order to provide for a fast and easy replacement of a functional unit (27) against another functional unit (27) it is suggested that the first attachment member (29) is adapted to releasably attach the base element (28) of the functional unit (27) to the tool shaft (23) of the power tool (1) by means of magnetic force.

A power tool includes a spindle, holding members each having a claw, a biasing member, and a locking member. The holding members are movable between a first position, in which the holding members fixedly hold a tool accessory against a tool mounting part of the spindle with the claws pressed against the tool accessory owing to a biasing force of the biasing member, and a second position, in which the holding members do not impede or block attachment or detachment of the tool accessory. The locking member is configured to move between a locking position, in which the locking member abut on the claws of the holding members to hold the holding members in the second position, and an unlocking position, in which the locking member does not impede or block the holding members from moving from the second position to the first position.

A clamp arrangement for securing an accessory to an oscillating power tool can include a clamp assembly including a first clamp member that moves relative to the accessory between a closed position wherein the clamp assembly retains the accessory and an open position wherein the first clamp is offset from the accessory permitting removal of the first accessory from the clamp assembly. The clamp assembly can further comprise a second clamp member having a first portion that opposes the first clamp member and cooperates with the first clamp member to clamp the accessory between the first and second clamp members. An attachment plate can carry the clamp assembly. The attachment plate can have a first mating detail formed thereon that is configured to selectively and removably mate with a complementary second mating detail on the power tool in an assembled position.

An apparatus (1) for carrying out the replacement of an abrasive element (20) in a machine (100) for finishing surfaces, comprises a support body (10) configured to reversibly engage the abrasive element (20). The support body (10) and the abrasive element (20) provide, at respective engagement surfaces (15,25), mutual engagement members of removable type (16,26) configured to move from an engagement position to a disengagement position by rotating about a rotational axis (110) in a first sense of rotation e, from the disengagement position to the engagement position, by rotating about the rotational axis (110) in a second sense of rotation opposite to the first one. The apparatus furthermore, comprises a displacement device (40) for moving the support body (10) in the space according to at least 1 degree of freedom. The apparatus (1), furthermore, provides at least a removal station (101) for removing an abrasive element (20) from the support body (10), or at least an application station (102) for engaging an abrasive element (20) to the support body (10).

A shaft driving tool incorporating a cylindrical body having an upper end and having a vertically extending hollow bore, the vertically extending hollow bore having a wall; female helical threads fixedly attached to the wall of the vertically extending hollow bore; a helically threaded screw shaft received within the vertically extending hollow bore, the helically threaded screw shaft having a shaft engaging lower end and having an upper end; shaft hub clamping set screws fixedly attached to the cylindrical body, the shaft screw clamping set screws being positioned at a lower end of the cylindrical body; and a drill or socket driver adapter fixedly attached to or formed wholly with an upper end of the helically threaded screw shaft, the drill or socket driver adapter extending upwardly from the helically threaded screw shaft.

A power tool includes a housing (10), a spindle (4) supported in the housing to be pivotable or rotatable about a driving axis, a clamping shaft (60) that is selectively movable in the up-down direction relative to the spindle, a biasing member (70), a release member (71) and an actuating member (50). The release member is selectively movable in the up-down direction relative to the spindle and is configured to selectively interrupt transmission of upward biasing force from the biasing member to the clamping shaft. The release member is also configured to be locked to the spindle in a locked position while transmission of the biasing force is being interrupted. The actuating member is movable upward in the up-down direction relative to the spindle in response to being pressed upward by a clamping part (64) or by a tool accessory (91) to thereby unlock the release member from the spindle.

A power tool having a housing, a motor, a tool holder driven about an output axis by the motor, and an output element for performing an operation on a workpiece. The tool holder has a locating feature including a tapered portion becoming narrower in a direction away from the surface of the tool holder. The output element has an aperture for receiving the locating feature and a face facing the surface of the tool holder when the locating feature is received. The power tool also includes a flange for transferring a clamping force for urging the output element towards the tool holder and a tab projecting from the flange for finger tightening the flange. A biasing member provides the clamping force toollessly. A gap is defined between the surface of the tool holder and the face when the tapered portion of the locating feature is fully received in the aperture.

Included are: a clamp configured to switch between a mounting state in which a tip tool is mounted and a releasing state in which the tip tool is removed; a clamp moving portion configured to move between a first position at which the clamp is in the mounting state and a second position at which the clamp is in the releasing state; a clamp urging portion configured to urge the clamp moving portion to the first position; a case accommodating at least a part of each of the clamp, the clamp moving portion, and the clamp urging portion; a retaining portion configured to retain the clamp moving portion at the second position; and a mounting operation portion configured to receive mounting operation for switching the clamp from the releasing state to the mounting state. When the mounting operation portion receives the mounting operation, the retaining portion cancels retaining of the clamp moving portion at the second position.

A holder assembly for a circular saw tool includes a blade having a bore. The blade is mountable to a free end of a rotatable shaft or of the tool through the bore. The blade is further adapted to be held in a pressing manner between an inner flange and an outer flange on the shaft. The holder assembly is comprised of at least one depression formed on a circumferential surface of the free end of the shaft, and at least one clutch member (or dogs) paired and mounted about the at least one depression, and located between the bore of the blade and the shaft. The holder assembly provides improved gripping while safety or emergency braking.
