A percussion unit for a rotary hammer and/or percussion hammer includes a control unit that is configured for open-loop and/or closed loop control of a pneumatic percussion mechanism. In at least one operating state in which the control unit changes from an idle mode to a percussion mode, the control unit is configured to adjust at least one operating parameter temporarily to a starting value.

Provided is an electric tool with which work efficiency can be improved. A controller of an electric tool can execute: a first control, whereby during a non-operating state after a motor has started up and before a tip tool is set to be in an operating state, the motor is driven at a slow idling rotation speed, and when the tip tool is set to be in the operating state, the motor is driven at a normal rotation speed which is higher than the slow idling rotation speed; and a second control, whereby in a case where a trigger switch has been turned off in a state where the motor is being driven at the normal rotation speed and the trigger switch is thereafter turned on again under a prescribed condition, the motor is driven at the normal rotation speed regardless of the state of the tip tool.

A hand-held power tool includes an electric motor, a tool unit, and at least one operating unit. A motor switching unit is configured to sense a contact-pressure characteristic between the tool unit and the operating unit, and configured to switch the electric motor at least partially in dependence on the contact-pressure characteristic.

A power tool includes a housing in which a drive unit is arranged, and a tool holder for the detachable holding of a tool insert. The tool insert is configured to be driven percussively and/or rotationally. A sensor unit is configured to detect at least one movement variable, and electronics are configured to control or regulate the power tool. The electronics have a percussion detection unit configured to determine a percussion mode based on at least one movement variable and/or a rotation detection unit configured to determine a rotation of the housing. The electronics control the drive unit based on the determined percussion mode and/or the determined rotation of the housing. The electronics have at least two parameter sets for the percussion detection unit and/or at least two parameter sets for the rotation detection unit. The electronics are configured to select one of the at least two parameter sets.

The rotary-percussive hydraulic perforator a body; a shank; a striking piston configured to strike the shank and provided with a braking surface; a braking chamber configured to hydraulically brake the striking piston; a stop piston configured to apply a pushing force on the shank and provided with a bearing surface configured to abut against a stop surface provided on the body, so as to limit the stroke of displacement of the stop piston towards the shank. The rotary-percussive hydraulic perforator is configured such that the bearing surface and the stop surface are axially spaced apart by a predetermined spacing distance simultaneously when (i) the shank bears on the stop piston and is in contact with the striking piston, and (ii) the braking surface is located at an inlet edge of the braking chamber.

The disclosure is based on a hand-held power tool having at least one switch device which comprises at least one switching element at least for activating a power supply of a drive unit, having at least one quick-change tool holder which is provided for holding an insertion tool which is different from an insertion tool with an SDS® shaft having a maximum transverse extent of 10 mm and/or having at least one accumulator interface. It is proposed that the at least one switching device comprises at least one locking unit which is provided for maintaining, at least essentially independently of an effect of an operator activation force, an active operating mode which can be activated by actuating the at least one switching element.

The electronics are configured to select one of the at least two parameter sets.

A system includes first and second power tools that each have a percussion mechanism, a motor, and a transmission. The transmission includes a striking mechanism and is configured to transfer a driving motion of the motor to an insert tool held in a tool holder. The transmission has a guide tube that is identical in some regions along a working axis and accommodates a striker. The guide tube is rotatably coupled to the motor by a first transmission unit. The striker is driven to linearly oscillate by a piston of a second transmission unit. A ratio between a diameter of the tool holder and a diameter of the guide tube is 1.8 times greater in the first power tool than in the second power tool. A striking energy of the second power tool is mechanically reduced compared to a striking energy of the first power tool.

The portable power chiseling tool has a tool holder, an electric motor, a striking mechanism and an idle strike catcher. The tool holder can receive a tool and retain it movably on a working axis. The striking mechanism includes an exciter piston, a striker, an anvil and a guide for the anvil. The exciter piston is coupled to the electric motor. The guide guides the anvil on the working axis. The idle strike catcher for the anvil has a conical inner surface facing the anvil. The anvil has an associated end face facing in the striking direction. The end face rests against the conical inner surface when the anvil is in its forwardmost position in the striking direction. The end face of the anvil has a first segment and a second segment in the circumferential direction. The second segment is offset in the striking direction relative to the first segment.

A hand-held power tool includes a tool holder, a motor for rotational and/or percussive driving of the tool holder, and a magnetic field sensor disposed in a vicinity of the motor, where a magnetic field of the motor that is created by driving the tool holder by the motor is detectable by the magnetic field sensor. The hand-held power tool further includes a control device where the control device determines a load state of the motor in dependence on a detected magnetic field of the motor and differentiates between an idle mode of the hand-held power tool and a load mode of the hand-held power tool based on the determined load state of the motor.
