An attachment configured for use with a powered hammer to drive a rod into the ground includes a body, an impact portion, and a driving portion in which the rod is receivable. The impact portion defines an impact axis and includes a bore configured to receive a driving shank coupled to the powered hammer. The impact portion is configured to receive repeated impacts from the powered hammer. The driving portion includes a side load driving portion defining a side load driving axis that is parallel to the impact axis. The driving portion further includes a top load driving portion defining a top load driving axis that is parallel to the side load driving axis.

An electropneumatic impact mechanism for an electric hand-held power tool, in particular a hammer drill and/or chipping hammer, wherein the impact mechanism has a transmission housing, a guide tube arranged at least partially in the transmission housing, an exciter piston that is movable in the axial direction in the guide tube, a connecting rod coupled to the exciter piston, and an eccentric wheel which is coupled to the connecting rod on one side and is mounted so as to be rotatable with respect to the transmission housing on the other side, wherein the impact mechanism has a bearing body on which the eccentric wheel is mounted rotatably by means of a pair of plain bearings.

A piston guiding element, rock drilling machine and method for supporting a front end portion of a percussion piston of a rock drilling machine. The piston guiding element includes a braking recess at its rear end. The element further includes at least one bearing sleeve, which is provided with two axially successive slide bearing sections. Hydraulic fluid is conveyed between the slide bearing sections via a feed system.

A rotary power tool comprises a drive mechanism including an electric motor and a transmission, a housing enclosing at least a portion of the drive mechanism, a spindle rotatable in response to receiving torque from the drive mechanism, a first ratchet coupled for co-rotation with the spindle, a second ratchet rotationally fixed to the housing, a sleeve bushing supported by the housing, and a bearing rotatably supporting the spindle. The spindle has an outer race. And, the outer race of the bearing moves along the sleeve bushing during reciprocation of the spindle when the first ratchet and second ratchet are engaged.

A hand-held power tool, in particular a hammer drill or combination hammer, having a tool fitting for holding a striking and rotating tool on a working axis, an electric motor coupled to a transmission shaft, an impact mechanism, which has a striker that is moved periodically along the working axis, and having a rotary drive, which drives a guide tube carrying the tool fitting in rotation about the working axis, wherein the rotary drive is coupled to the transmission shaft via a rocker lever.

A rotary power tool comprises a drive mechanism including an electric motor and a transmission, a housing enclosing at least a portion of the drive mechanism, a spindle rotatable in response to receiving torque from the drive mechanism, a first ratchet coupled for co-rotation with the spindle, a second ratchet rotationally fixed to the housing, a sleeve bushing on an interior of the housing, and a bearing arranged between the spindle and the sleeve bushing and rotatably supporting the spindle. The bearing has an outer race. The spindle is movable relative to the housing in response to contact with a workpiece, causing the first and second ratchets to engage and the spindle to reciprocate while rotating. The outer race of the bearing moves along the sleeve bushing during reciprocation of the spindle when the first ratchet and second ratchet are engaged.

This percussion apparatus includes a striking piston mounted so as to be displaced inside a piston cylinder and arranged to strike a tool; and a guide bearing comprising a guide surface configured to guide the striking piston during the displacements of the striking piston in the piston cylinder. The guide bearing includes a centering device configured to center the striking piston in the piston cylinder, the centering device comprising centering chambers formed in the guide surface and distributed around the striking piston, each centering chamber being fluidly connected to a high pressure fluid supply circuit; and at least one discharge groove formed in the guide surface of the guide bearing and located proximate to at least one of the centering chambers, the at least one discharge groove being fluidly connected to a low pressure circuit.

A hydraulic breaking hammer and method of supporting a percussion piston is provided. The breaking hammer includes a percussion device provided with a reciprocating piston. The piston is supported on a frame at its end portions by a first piston bearing element and a second piston bearing element. The second piston bearing element includes a collar sealing element facing towards a working collar of the piston. The piston bearing elements are easily mountable and dismountable separate components.

A hammer drill includes a housing inside which a motor, a tubular tool holder, a driving mechanism, a rotation conversion member, and an inner housing are disposed. The driving mechanism is configured to perform at least one of rotation actuation of the tool holder and hammering actuation of a bit. The inner housing supports the driving mechanism, supports the tool holder via a first bearing, and supports an output shaft via a second bearing. The inner housing is divided into a front housing holding the first bearing and a rear housing that is formed in a separate body from the front housing and holds the second bearing. The inner housing is formed by connecting the front housing to the rear housing in an axis line direction of the tool holder. A seal member sealing outside space of the inner housing inside the housing is disposed in the front housing.

An impact tool includes a housing; and a motor, a tubular tool holder, a driving mechanism, a rotation shaft, a driving mechanism housing region inside the housing. The tool holder has a distal end on which a bit is mountable. The driving mechanism is configured to hammer the bit. The rotation shaft is disposed in the driving mechanism and rotates by a rotation of an output shaft of the motor. The driving mechanism housing region houses the driving mechanism in a sealed state inside the housing. The air escape path that releases air inside the driving mechanism housing region to outside of the driving mechanism housing region is formed inside the rotation shaft while an inlet of the air escape path is formed on an outer peripheral surface of the rotation shaft.
