The invention relates to a machine tool, in particular a hand held machine tool, which has a tool receiving device that is movable, in particular in an oscillating manner, around an output shaft (2). The tool receiving device is designed to hold a tool device on the machine tool in such a manner that the output shaft and a tool rotation axis substantially coincide. The tool receiving device has at least one torque transmission region (9) and a holding device (4a, 4b). In order to transmit a driving force to the tool device, the torque transmission region has at least two output area regions (9a) that are arranged at a distance from said output shaft and each have a multiplicity of surface points. Here, the tangent planes to said surface points are inclined in regard to an axial plane which includes said output shaft. Furthermore, the tangent planes are inclined in regard to a radial plane which extends perpendicularly to the output shaft. In this way, the output torque is transmitted reliably to the tool device by the machine tool via the tool receiving device.

A bit holder assembly for a rotary hand or powered tool, includes a body having a hex shank at its rearward end and a retraction collar slidably disposed on the body. The body has a coaxial hex socket formed therein to allow a tool bit to be inserted thereinto. A coil spring biases the retraction collar forwardly and biases a retaining clip toward the bottom of an angular slot formed in the body. The bit is removed by sliding the retraction collar rearwardly, to compress the coil spring and allow the retaining clip to retract back up the slot. A ring magnet is disposed at the forward end of the retraction collar to magnetize a fastener to retain the fastener to the bit.

A power tool including a motor and a rotatable spindle driven by the motor to hold and drive a first bit. There is a recess located on the spindle. The power tool also includes a removable chuck with a lock member and a locking collar. The locking collar includes a locking position in which the locking collar biases the lock member into the recess to retain the chuck on the spindle. The locking collar also includes a release position in which the lock members are able to exit the recess and the chuck is able to be removed from the spindle by a user. The locking collar is axially movable from the locking position to the release position.

Disclosed are a power transfer device for transferring external power to a rotary body, a pipe cutting device using the power transfer device and a hydraulic chucking device using the power transfer device. The power transfer device is configured to transfer external power to a rotary body coupled to one side of a main body. The power transfer device includes at least one double-action interlocking cylinder mounted to a rear surface of the rotary body and provided with a rod protruding toward the main body, a push unit installed in the main body and provided with at least one pusher protruding toward the rotary body, and a bearing disposed between the pusher of the push unit and the rod of the interlocking cylinder and configured to allow relative rotation of the pusher and the rod and to transfer power between the pusher and the rod.

An accessory for coupling to an oscillating power tool includes a working end portion and an attachment portion. The working end portion defines and extends along a working axis. The attachment portion is coupled to the working end portion and includes a top wall, a bottom wall spaced apart from the top wall, and a peripheral wall extending from the top wall to the bottom wall at least partially around the top wall to form at least a portion of a polygonal shape. A generally U-shaped opening is defined in the top wall, extends along an attachment axis at an angle to the working axis, has a central portion at a center of the attachment portion, and is open to a gap in the peripheral wall. A plurality of radial openings is defined in the top wall and arranged between the U-shaped opening and the peripheral wall. The peripheral wall, the U-shaped opening, and the plurality of radial openings are configured to couple the attachment portion to at least two different configurations of accessory attachment mechanisms on different oscillating power tools.
