A power tool includes a housing, a motor disposed in the housing, a motor controller disposed in the housing and electrically coupled to the motor, and a transmission disposed in the housing and coupled to the motor. A tool bit holder is rotatably driven by the motor via the transmission and receives a tool bit for rotatably driving threaded fasteners. A power switch and an electronic model select switch are actuatable from outside the housing and are coupled to the motor controller. The power switch controls power delivery to the motor. The electronic mode select switch is configured to select between at least a first mode of operation in which power delivery to the motor is controlled by actuation of the power switch and an electronic lock on mode in which continuous power is delivered to the motor upon a single actuation and release of the power switch.

A dust cover for a hammer work tool, a hammer work tool, and a method of attaching the same are disclosed. The hammer work tool includes a housing, a power cell enclosed inside the housing, a tool member, and a detachable dust cover. When attached, the dust cover prevents particulate matter from entering the housing. When detached, a housing opening uncovered by the dust cover provides access to the power cell for maintenance and repairs. During installation, a housing rim and a locking tab of the hammer work tool are respectively received by a groove and a locking tab receiver of the dust cover. Advantageously, the dust cover is durable, cost effective, and easily attached and detached without the use of additional tools.

A power tool is provided that includes a tool carrier for mounting an impact tool. The tool carrier has a base member aligned with an operational axis. The base member has a head end for receiving impact energy, a foot end provided with a tool mount configured to transmit the impact energy to the impact tool, and a casing engagement feature between the head end and foot end. A first casing module is provided with a tool carrier engagement feature complementary in shape to, and for interlocking engagement with, the tool carrier casing engagement feature to prevent rotation of the tool carrier relative to the first casing module around the operational axis, and permits relative movement between the tool carrier and the first casing module along the operational axis.

A power tool, in particular a chipping hammer, having a housing and a battery interface device for releasably connecting at least one rechargeable battery to the power tool. An impact damping device is contained between the housing and the battery interface device, wherein the impact damping device contains at least one damping element which is arranged in a longitudinal extent perpendicularly to a working axis of the power tool.

A power tool having a hammer mechanism includes a first housing, a motor housed in the first housing, a second housing that at least partially covers the first housing, and a controller housed in the second housing. The second housing is coupled to the first housing via at least one elastic member to be movable relative to the first housing in a first direction that is parallel to the driving axis. The second housing has at least one opening for wiring. The at least one opening communicatively connects an inside and an outside of the second housing. At least one electric wire extends from the controller to the outside of the second housing through the at least one opening.

There is provided a power tool including a housing, a brushless motor, a power supply circuit, and a fan. The housing is formed with an inlet hole and an exhaust hole. The brushless motor is supported by the housing. The power supply circuit includes at least one circuit element for supplying electric power of a power source to the brushless motor. The fan is driven by rotation of the brushless motor to generate a cooling air flow that flows from the inlet hole to the exhaust hole in the housing. The housing includes a first housing including a grip portion and supporting the brushless motor. The inlet hole is formed in the first housing. The at least one circuit element is disposed inside the first housing and is cooled by the cooling air flow.

A percussion tool comprises a housing and an electric motor positioned within the housing. The percussion tool further comprises a battery pack supported by the housing for providing power to the motor. The battery pack includes a plurality of battery cells having a nominal voltage of up to 120 Volts. The percussion tool further comprises a percussion mechanism driven by the motor and including a striker supported for reciprocation in the housing. The percussion tool has a ratio of impact energy to mass that is greater than or equal to 2.5 Joules/kilogram.

In one example, a system includes a hammer extender having a head formed from an upper layer, a lower layer and a side layer. The hammer extender includes an elongated body portion having a solid core elongated portion and a hollow core elongated portion. One end of the solid core elongated portion is connected to the head, and the other end is connected to the hollow core elongated portion. The hollow core elongated portion can receive and guide a nail during impact. The system may include a hammer having a hammer handle with a hollow interior to store the hammer extender.

A power tool includes a housing and an electric motor supported within the housing. The housing includes a main housing portion that defines a rear opening. The electric motor includes an output shaft supporting a rotor assembly for rotation about a motor axis. The electric motor also includes a stator assembly surrounding the rotor assembly, and a rear end cap. The rear end cap supports a rear motor bearing that rotatably supports the output shaft at a rear end. A portion of the rear end cap resides within the rear opening to close the rear opening.

A tool unit including a handheld power tool and a side handle mechanically connected to the power tool, wherein the side handle has a threaded rod. The power tool has an undercut groove delimited by a groove bottom, and the side handle has a channel nut engaging the undercut groove, wherein the channel nut has a threaded hole, wherein the threaded rod of the side handle is threadedly engaged in the threaded hole of the channel nut and acts against the groove bottom of the undercut groove. Side handles and power tools for use in such a tool unit are also provided.
