The invention relates to a machine tool, in particular a hand held machine tool, which has a tool-accommodating device which can be moved, in particular in oscillating fashion, about a drive axis, in order to retain a tool device on the machine tool. The tool-accommodating device has at least one clamping device, at least one retaining device and at least one locking device. The retaining device can be moved from at least one first, open position into at least one second, closed position. It is also the case that the retaining device can be forced by a clamping force, by way of the clamping device, preferably in the closing direction from said first, open position in the direction of said second, closed position. The locking device can be moved between at least one first, locking position and at least one second, unlocking position. It is possible here for said locking device to block movement of the retaining device in at least one locking position. A force applied to the locking device directly or indirectly by the tool device moves said locking device from one of said locking positions into one of said unlocking positions. This allows the tool device to be inserted particularly quickly and straightforwardly into the machine tool.

A surgical sagittal saw cartridge that includes a guide bar formed from an inner plate and opposed outer plates, the inner plate defining a head. The cartridge has a blade that is disposed against the head of the inner plate. The inner plate may comprise an inner tine and/or two opposed outer tines. The inner tine may be formed to define the head against which the blade is disposed. The outer tines may extend distally so as to define a space between the outer tines in which the blade is seated.

A tool system for use with an accessory tool including a mounting end, comprises an oscillating power tool and a handheld tool assembly. The oscillating power tool includes a first tool holder configured to connect to the mounting end of the accessory tool. The handheld tool assembly includes a second tool holder configured to connect to the mounting end of the accessory tool.

A circular jig apparatus to allow cutting or marking of large circular holes in sheets of material using a tool with a cutting blade or marking device is disclosed. This apparatus includes a system to hold the hold the tool in place, adjust the size or radius of the circular hole, and guide the cutting blade or marking device around in a circle on the sheet of material. In particular the cutting tool may be a vibrating blade. A system is also disclosed to match the curvature of the cutting blade to the arc or radius of the circle being cut. A system is also disclosed to provide a depth stop for the cutting blade. A system to hold a wide variety of marking or dispensing devices for use with the circular jig is also disclosed.

An accessory includes a blade, a coupling, and a guide. The blade includes a cutting edge. The coupling includes a first portion and a second portion. The first portion is attachable to and detachable from the power tool. The second portion is connected to the blade. The guide is structured to guide the blade along a work piece by interacting with a surface of the work piece as the blade moves in an advancing direction. The guide is structured to provide a locked state and an unlocked state. In the locked state, the guide is engaged with the coupling such that the guide is attached to the coupling. In the unlocked state, the guide is disengaged from the coupling such that the guide is detached from the coupling.

Disclosed is a hand-held electric tool, in which a main shaft (1) swings back and forth around an axis (11) to drive accessories (9) of the tool to carry out various types of operations. A swing device is provided with an eccentric element (41) capable of reducing the shock caused to a shell (7) by a connecting rod component (3). Another shell (6) is provided with a valve device (5) used for adjusting the flow of air current in different air ducts. The accessories (9) of the tool can be cooled or cleaned through the air current in one of the air ducts. The main shaft (1) is provided with an elastic support (2) used for balancing the load when an electrical motor (8) is operating. The elastic support (2) can replace a bearing in supporting the main shaft (1) swinging back and forth around the axis (11).

An accessory for a power tool includes a blade and a coupling. The coupling includes a blade portion, a tool portion, and a transition. The blade portion is fixedly coupled to the blade. The tool portion is configured to be removably coupled to the power tool. The tool portion also includes an opening. The transition extends between the blade portion and the tool portion, and the transition includes a first transition region, where the transition intersects with the blade portion, and a second transition region, where the transition intersects with the tool portion. The first transition region includes a first arc having a center that is arranged between the first arc and the opening, and the second transition region includes a second arc having a center that is arranged between the second arc and the opening.

A power tool (1), such as a multi-tool, includes: a motor (21) extending in a front-rear direction; a motor housing (2) that houses the motor (21); a head housing (7) held forward of the motor housing (2); and an output shaft (60) protruding downward from the head housing (7). The head housing (7) may be made of a resin. In addition or in the alternative, the head housing (7) includes a lower-head housing case (4) screw fastened to an upper-head housing cover (5). In addition or in the alternative, the motor housing has a two-halved structure in which two half housings (2a, 2b) are screw fastened together.

A blade for oscillating tools includes lateral edges, a working edge that extends in a first direction, and a mounting portion. The mounting portion includes a first mounting configuration that defines a first center and a second mounting configuration that defines a second center, where the first center is spaced a distance away from the second center in a direction that is substantially orthogonal to the first direction in which the working edge extends or to a tangent of a center of curvature of the working edge. Both mounting configurations are configured to drive the same working edge.

A saw gear set comprising a set of saw blades and a saw drive (1), wherein each saw blade of the set is configured to be coupled to the saw drive (1) by means of a coupling mechanism (100), which coupling mechanism (100) is configured to transmit a driving force of the saw drive (1) to the saw blade in a force transmission point, for oscillating the saw blade around a pivot axis (300). Each saw blade of the set is configured to be pivotably borne around the pivot axis (300). In operation, an oscillation angle () around the pivot axis (300) is different for each saw blade of the set depending on a pivot distance between the pivot axis (300) and the force transmission point which varies for each saw blade of the set.
