The hand-held power tool has a tool holder (2) for holding a tool (4) along a working axis (12). A hammer mechanism (6) has a striker (15) that is moved periodically along the working axis at an impact rate. A drive control (18) of the hammer mechanism (6) sets the impact rate to a set point value. A vibration absorber (19) has an oscillator (21) that moves along the working axis (12) about a resting position and one or multiple springs (20) that drive the oscillator (21) back into the resting position. A calibration phase comprises the following steps: detection of an acceleration using the acceleration sensor (24); determination of a minimum of the acceleration by varying the impact rate in a range of between 90% and 110% of the set point value; and adjusting the set point to the impact rate associated with the ascertained minimum.

A hand-held power tool has a tool holder for holding a tool along a working axis. A hammer mechanism has a striker that is moved periodically at an impact rate along the working axis between a turning point in the proximity of the tool and a turning point remote from the tool. A drive control of the hammer mechanism sets the impact rate to a set point value. A vibration absorber has an oscillator that moves along the working axis about a resting position and one or multiple springs that drive the oscillator back into the resting position. A first sensor is used to determine a phase of the motion of the striker. A sensor is used to determine a first phase of a compression point of the hammer mechanism. Another sensor is used to determine a second phase of a turning point in the proximity of the tool, of the hammer mechanism. A damping controller adapts the set point value in such a way that a phase difference between the first phase and the second phase is less than a threshold value.

A percussion tool comprises a housing, an electric motor positioned within the housing, a percussion mechanism driven by the electric motor and including a striker supported for reciprocation in the housing, a battery pack removably coupled to the housing for providing power to the electric motor when coupled to the housing, and an electronic controller including an electronic processor and a memory. The electronic controller is coupled to the electric motor and configured to activate the motor and determine whether the percussion tool is in a loaded condition. In response to determining that the percussion tool is in the loaded condition, the electronic controller is configured to operate the motor in accordance with a predetermined profile and in response to determining that the percussion tool is in a no load condition, the electronic controller is configured to operate the motor at a no-load speed.

An electrical hammer (100) comprises a main housing (101), a hand grip (500) connected to the main housing (101) via a compression coil spring (321). In the electrical hammer (100), a hammer bit (119) is driven by a first motion converting mechanism (120) and thereby a hammering operation is performed. During the hammering operation, the hand grip (500) is moved against the main housing (101) in a state that biasing force of the compression coil spring (321) is applied on the hand grip (500). Further, the electrical hammer (100) comprises a second motion converting mechanism (220) which drives a counterweight (231).

A percussion tool includes a housing, a percussion mechanism including a striker supported for reciprocation in the housing along a first axis, and an anti-vibration system for attenuating vibration in a direction of the first axis. The anti-vibration system includes a linkage coupling the percussion mechanism to the housing. The linkage permits relative movement between the housing and the percussion mechanism along the first axis. The anti-vibration system also includes a counterweight supported by the percussion mechanism for relative movement therewith along a second axis that is parallel with the first axis. The counterweight reciprocates out of phase with the striker to attenuate vibration in the direction of the first axis.
