A power tool having a rotary hammer mechanism has a motor, a driving mechanism, a tool body that houses the motor and the driving mechanism, a handle having a grip part, and a first operation member. The driving mechanism is configured to operate by power of the motor in an action mode that is selected from a plurality of operation modes including a first mode of at least rotationally driving a tool accessory around a driving axis and a second mode of only linearly driving the tool accessory along the driving axis. The grip part extends in a direction crossing the driving axis and is configured to be held by a user. The first operation member is on the tool body and faces the grip part. The first operation member is configured to be manually operated by the user to change the action mode of the driving mechanism.

A hand-held power tool 1 has a tool socket 2 to hold a tool 4 on a working axis 11, a motor 5 and a pneumatic striking mechanism 6. A driven shaft 7 is coupled to the tool socket 2 in order to rotate the tool around the working axis 11. A slip clutch 24 is arranged in the drive train between the motor 5 and the driven shaft 7. The slip clutch 24 has a disk 25 on the drive side and a disk 26 on the driven side. On a driving ring surface 28 that is in contact with the disk 26 on the driven side, the disk 25 on the drive side has first sectors 33 that have a high friction value as well as second sectors 34 that have a low friction value. On the driven ring surface 29 that is in contact with the driving ring surface 28, the disk 26 on the driven side has third sectors 35 that have a high friction value as well as fourth sectors 36 that have a low friction value.

A hammer drill includes a tool housing including a motor housing portion; a motor in the motor housing portion; an output spindle driven by the motor; a clutch housing; and a hammering mechanism including a first ratchet and a second ratchet. The hammering mechanism is configured to impart axial impacts to the output spindle. The hammer drill further includes an insert in the clutch housing. The insert includes a body and a plurality of legs extending from the body.

An impact tool including a housing, a drive assembly supported within the housing, the drive assembly including a hammer and an anvil configured to receive periodic rotational impacts from the hammer, an output shaft extending from the housing, the output shaft rotatable about an axis in a first direction and a second direction opposite the first direction, and a clutch assembly coupled between the drive assembly and the output shaft. The clutch assembly is configured to couple the output shaft for co-rotation with the anvil in the first direction and to selectively limit torque transfer from the anvil to the output shaft in the second direction.

A power tool and a method of operating a power tool including a motor, a clutch collar including a plurality of settings, a wireless transceiver operable to form a wireless connection with a remote device, and a processor coupled to the clutch collar and the wireless transceiver. The processor receives, via the wireless transceiver, a mapping including a plurality of torque levels corresponding to the plurality of settings. The processor detects that the clutch collar is set to a setting of the plurality of settings. The processor determines the torque level for the setting from the mapping and detects, during the operation of the power tool, that a torque of the power tool exceeds the torque level. The processor is also configured to generate an indication that the torque exceeds the torque level. The indication may include flashing a light, ratcheting the motor, and stopping the motor.

A hammer drill includes a motor, a cylindrical tool holder, an intermediate shaft, a rotation conversion portion, a mode switching member, a restricting member, and an operation member. A first switch state of the restricting member by the operation member causes a first operation mode in which rotation of the tool holder and a striking motion of a striking portion allowed to be performed simultaneously in conjunction with retreat of the tool holder. A second switch state of the restricting member by the operation member causes a second operation mode in which the retreat of the tool holder from the advance position is restricted and the tool holder is allowed to be rotated only. The restricting member is provided with a plurality of restricting portions that contact the mode switching member to restrict the retreat of the mode switching member.

An axial bearing for reducing wear is provided in an overload clutch for arrangement between a drive unit and a power take-off unit of a hand-held power tool in order to enable decoupling of the drive unit from the power take-off unit in the hand-held power tool when a limit torque is exceeded.

Electric hand-held power tool, in particular a hammer drill and/or rotary hammer, having a function setting tube, which can be actuated via a manual function selector switch to bring about various operating modes, a guide tube equipped with a tool fitting, and having a ball-type latching clutch for transmitting a rotary movement from the function setting tube to the guide tube, wherein the ball-type latching clutch has a radial aperture formed in the function setting tube, a main latching depression formed in the guide tube, a coupling ball mounted in the radial aperture and intended to engage in the main latching depression, and a spring-loaded cone ring against whose actuating force the coupling ball can deflect in the radial direction, wherein the guide tube has formed therein an auxiliary depression that is different from the main latching depression and whose opening angle is larger than an opening angle of the main latching depression.

A rotary hammer operable in a first mode in which only a hammering operation to reciprocate a tool bit along a drive axis is performed and a second mode in which the tool bit is rotationally driven about the drive axis. The rotary hammer includes a motor, a controller to control operation of the motor, a trigger moveable between an off position and an on position, a mode selection dial operable to select the first or second mode, a lock mechanism moveable between a first position and a second position, a linkage moveable between a third position and a fourth position, and a switch in communication with the controller. The switch communicates with the controller to operate the motor at full power or communicates with the controller to operate the motor at a variable speed based on the position of the trigger between the on position and the off position.
