A quick clamping device for a portable power tool, in particular an angle grinder, includes an output shaft that is configured to be driven in rotation and at least one clamping unit that is configured to fix an application tool unit to the output shaft without tools. The clamping unit has at least one movably mounted clamping element configured to apply a clamping force to the application tool unit in a clamping position of the clamping element. The clamping element is formed by a positive-locking element that is movable transversely to an axis of rotation of the output shaft and is configured to engage behind at least a subregion of the application tool unit in a positive-locking manner so as to secure the application tool unit.

A quick clamping device for arranging at least one application tool on a power tool, in particular on an angle grinder, includes at least one output unit for moving the application tool about an output axis of the output unit, and at least one fixing unit having at least one movably mounted fixing element that is mounted, in particular in a non-removable manner, on the output unit, at least for axially fixing the application tool to the output unit. The quick clamping device has at least one securing unit, which has at least one, in particular movably mounted, securing element that is intended to secure the fixing element, which is mounted so as to be movable relative to the output unit at least about the output axis, so as to prevent the fixing element from moving about the output axis.

A rotary bit for use with a rotary tool to improve grinding, sanding, buffing, polishing and like operations on a work object. The rotary bit is structured and arranged to flex when it comes into contact with round, curved and other shaped surfaces of the work object to prevent damage to those surfaces and the areas adjacent thereto. The rotary bit comprises a flexible member that fixedly or detachably mounts to one end of an elongated shaft of a mandrel that fits into and is rotated by the rotary tool. The flexible member has a compressible body with a cap member at the proximal end to provide stiffness and grit paper attached, either fixedly or removably, at the distal end to accomplish the desired work operations. The rotary bit can use different materials for the compressible body and different abrasive materials to accomplish the work operations.

It is an object of the invention to increase the degree of freedom in designing a power tool. A representative power tool has a spindle that transmits a driving force of a motor to a tool accessory, a tool accessory holding member that is configured to be movable in a direction of a spindle rotation axis direction between a holding position for holding the tool accessory and a releasing position for releasing the tool accessory, a lock mechanism that locks the tool accessory holding member in the holding position, and a body housing. The lock mechanism is disposed between a second end of the spindle and a wall of the body housing in the spindle rotation axis direction.

Provided is a rotary tool. In the rotary tool, the rotating tip tool is mounted on a spindle by the fixture, and the spindle and the tip tool are rotated by a motor. The rotary tool has a switch which can switch the motor between a rotation state and a stop state, and a control device which controls the rotation of the motor corresponding to the operation of the switch. When the switch is turned off after a required time T elapses after the motor is started, the control device stops the rotary tool (104d, 106d) by performing a common braking operation on the spindle, and when the switch is turned off before the required time T elapses after the motor is started, the control device stops the tip tool (101d) by inertia without applying a braking force.

A work tool includes a spindle, a clamp shaft, a holding member, an engagement member and a first biasing member. The holding member has a pass-through part. The engagement member is rotatable around a driving axis relative to the holding member between a first position in which the engagement member is allowed to pass through the pass-through part and a second position in which the engagement member is engaged with the holding member. The engagement member allows the clamp shaft to move in an up-down direction relative to the holding member when located in the first position, and to prevent the clamp shaft from moving downward relative to the holding member when located in the second position. The holding member is configured to fixedly hold the clamp shaft relative to the spindle while being biased upward by the first biasing member, with the engagement member in the second position.

A grinding or disc cutting-type hand-held tool including: a casing housing a motor and an output shaft rotated by the motor along an axis of rotation. The output shaft is capable of rotating: a first type of accessory having a threaded central opening; and a second type of accessory having a smooth central opening. The output shaft has: an end portion supporting a first connection element for rigidly connecting the first type of accessory; and an intermediate portion supporting a second connection element for rigidly connecting the second type of accessory.

A work tool includes a spindle and a clamp shaft. The spindle is supported to be rotatable around a driving axis defining an up-down direction of the work tool. The clamp shaft includes a shaft part and a fixing part. The shaft part extends coaxially with the spindle. The fixing part is coupled to the shaft part on a lower side of the spindle. The clamp shaft is supported to be movable in the up-down direction relative to the spindle. The clamp shaft is configured to be biased upward and to fix the tool accessory to a lower end portion of the spindle by the fixing par. The fixing part is configured to be removable from the shaft part and to be integrally coupled to the shaft part only by moving upward relative to the shaft part.

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.

The belt sander includes a gear casing coupled to a tool housing, the gear casing surrounding one or more gears configured to receive input from a motor to drive a shaft about a drive axis. The belt sander includes a belt arm assembly having a belt arm, the belt configured to translate in response to input from the shaft. The belt sander includes a plurality of incrementally spaced apart receivers on the gear casing and an engagement member in operational communication with the belt arm assembly, the engagement member being movable between a locked position and an unlocked position, wherein in the locked position the engagement member engages a receiver to fix the belt arm assembly incrementally relative to the gear casing, and wherein in the unlocked position the belt arm assembly freely rotates relative to the belt arm assembly to pivot the belt arm about the drive axis.
