A hydraulic, pneumatic, gasoline, diesel, or electric tool may include a spindle that is adapted for rotational movement. A swing arm may be coupled to the spindle such that rotational motion of the spindle is transferred to the swing arm. The swing arm makes contact with a piston such that the rotational motion causes the piston to move along a linear path. The piston may interact with an energy storage medium when the swing arm moves the piston in the first direction, causing energy to be stored in the energy storage medium. As the swing arm continues to rotate, the swing arm may lose contact with the piston, thus allowing the energy storage medium to urge the piston in a second direction opposite the first direction to strike an anvil. The swing arm may be a multiple roller swing arm. The energy storage medium may be a compound spring assembly.

In order to provide an impact tool which is capable of increasing a striking force in a rotational direction of being applied from a hammer to an anvil, the impact tool includes: an electric motor; an anvil which supports a work tool and is driven by the electric motor; and a hammer which applies the striking force in the rotational direction to the anvil. The impact tool is provided with: a spindle which is arranged to be concentric with the anvil, supports the hammer to be movable in an axial direction and the rotational direction with respect to the anvil, and transmits motive power of the electric motor to the anvil; and a control unit which controls rotation speed of the electric motor. The number of strokes of the anvil due to one rotation of the hammer differs in response to rotation speed of the electric motor.
