A chainsaw includes a handle with a handgrip; an electric motor for endlessly moving a saw chain; a control unit for controlling rotation of the motor; and a main power switch switchable between an ON state and an OFF state. The handgrip is provided with a gripping detection device for detecting whether the handgrip is gripped by the worker, and the chainsaw is configured to, when the control unit is manipulated to deactivate the electric motor in a state in which the gripping detection device detects that the handgrip is gripped, maintain the main power switch in the ON state, and to, when the control unit is manipulated to deactivate the electric motor in a state in which the gripping detection device detects that the handgrip is not gripped, switch the main power switch to the OFF state.

A chainsaw (100) includes a power unit and a working assembly powered responsive to operation of the power unit. The working assembly includes a guide bar (120) around which a chain is rotatable. The guide bar (120) includes first and second side plates (200 and 210), a sprocket wheel (220), first and second shims (240 and 242), and first and second sealing members (244 and 245). The first and second side plates (200 and 210) each face other and extend away from a housing (110) to a nose. The sprocket wheel (220) is provided at the nose between the first and second side plates (200 and 210). The first and second shims (240 and 242) are disposed between the first and second side plates (200 and 210), respectively, and corresponding ones of first and second sides of the sprocket wheel (220). The first sealing member (244) is disposed between the first shim (240) and the first side of the sprocket wheel (220). The second sealing member (245) is disposed between the second shim (242) and the second side of the sprocket wheel (220).

An electric working machine may include: a support rod constituted of metal; a tool disposed at a front end of the support rod; a motor configured to drive the tool; a control unit disposed at a rear end of the support rod and configured to control the motor; and a heat transfer structure configured to transfer heat from the control unit to the support rod.

A chainsaw 1 (electric-power-driven working device) comprises a body case 10, a cutting attachment 20 (work tool), a motor 30 and a battery 90. A front portion 11a of the body case 10 houses the motor 30 and a battery mount-and-release portion 12 is formed on a rear portion 11b of the body case 10. The battery 90 mounted on the battery mount-and-release portion 12 extends in an upper-lower direction across and over a middle portion in a height direction of the rear portion 11b of the body case 10. The side handle 50 arranged to a side face of the body case 10 extends from the front portion 11a to the rear portion 11b of the body case 10. A rear end portion 52 of the side handle is disposed rearward of and below an output shaft 31 of the motor 30.

A chainsaw includes a handle with a handgrip; an electric motor for endlessly moving a saw chain; a control unit for controlling rotation of the motor; and a main power switch switchable between an ON state and an OFF state. The handgrip is provided with a gripping detection device for detecting whether the handgrip is gripped by the worker, and the chainsaw is configured to, when the control unit is manipulated to deactivate the electric motor in a state in which the gripping detection device detects that the handgrip is gripped, maintain the main power switch in the ON state, and to, when the control unit is manipulated to deactivate the electric motor in a state in which the gripping detection device detects that the handgrip is not gripped, switch the main power switch to the OFF state.

A handheld cutting tool includes a housing including a motor housing portion, a drive housing portion, and a handle portion extending from one of the motor housing portion or the drive housing portion. A motor is located in the motor housing portion. A driven gear is coupled to the motor for receiving torque therefrom. A first guard extends between the handle portion and one of the drive housing portion or the motor housing portion, and a second guard extends between the drive housing portion and one of the handle portion and the motor housing portion. A guide bar extends from the drive housing portion at an angle offset relative to the handle portion and the first and second guards. A chain is supported on the guide bar, and a battery pack is removably coupled to a bottom part of the handle portion.

A work apparatus has a first and a second assembly. The second assembly is mounted movably in relation to the first assembly via at least one antivibration element. Formed between the first assembly and the second assembly is a vibration gap, which is bridged by the antivibration element. The work apparatus has a switch, for actuation by an operator, which includes a first contact element and a second contact element. When the switch is closed, the first contact element and the second contact element contact each other. When the switch is open, the first and second contact element do not establish an electrically conductive contact. The second contact element is part of the second assembly. The first contact element is part of the first assembly and, when the switch is closed, the first contact element and the second contact element bridge the vibration gap between the first and second assembly.

A handheld work apparatus includes a first assembly, a second assembly and an anti-vibration unit which includes a coil spring. A first end of the coil spring forms a fastening eyelet fixed to the first assembly by an attachment screw which extends through the fastening eyelet and the head thereof projects into the coil spring. A second end of the coil spring is screwed onto a connecting piece of the second assembly which has an opening extending through the connecting piece and through which an engagement contour in the head of the attachment screw is accessible for a tool. When the work apparatus is in a non-loaded state, the distance (f) between the fastening eyelet and a front end of the connecting piece is the length (g) of the attachment screw. The distance (p) of the above support surface from the front end of the connecting piece is the length (g).
