An impact tool that realizes an ON-lock function with a simple mechanism and makes it possible to switch between activation and deactivation of the ON-lock function with few operation processes is provided. A hammer drill having at least two operating modes including a hammer mode in which an impact force is transmitted to a tool bit whereas a rotational force is not transmitted thereto includes: a motor as a power source; a trigger lever and an ON-lock button that are operated by an operator; a sensor that detects whether a selected operating mode is the hammer mode or not; and a controller that controls the motor based on an operation of the trigger lever and the ON-lock button. When the ON-lock button is operated while the hammer mode is selected, the controller performs ON-lock control to maintain the motor in the operating state even when the trigger lever is not operated.

A hand-held power tool device, in particular a hammer drill and/or chisel hammer device, includes at least one operating element and at least one locking unit. The at least one locking unit includes at least one locking element and at least one controllable actuator element. The at least one locking element can be moved from at least one storage position into at least one locking position, and vice versa, and locks the operating element in at least one operating state in the locking position. The at least one controllable actuator element influences motion of the locking element.

A hand-held power tool having a motor-driven impact mechanism and monostable operating button. A locking switch for the monostable operating button has a sliding direction, an actuating knob, a catch and a sliding block, wherein the actuating knob is able to be moved by the user in the sliding direction from a releasing position to a locking position. The catch is pivotable in a pivoting direction perpendicular to the switching direction between a first position and a second position. The catch is disengaged from the operating button 6 in the first position and the catch engages in the operating button in the second position, arresting the operating button in the pressed position. The catch has, on a side facing in the pivoting direction, a slotted-guide face that is inclined with respect to the sliding direction. The sliding block bears on the slotted-guide face.

A power tool includes a motor disposed in a motor housing, a handle extending downward from the motor housing, a main switch provided on the handle and configured to switch the motor ON and OFF, and a state-changing operation part located on a lower portion of the motor housing or on an upper-end portion of the handle. The state-changing operation part is located upward of the main switch and is configured to effect a change of a rotational state of the motor, other than a direction of rotation of the motor, or an illumination level of a light.

A dust collector includes a body configured to be removably attached to a lower side of a tool body of a drilling tool, a dust storing part to be disposed on a lower side of the body, a sliding part having a suction port and held by the body so as to be slidable in a front-rear direction, a dust transfer passage extending within the sliding part and connecting the suction port and an inlet of the dust storing part, and a tool connection passage disposed within an internal space of the body and configured to connect an outlet of the dust storing part and an inlet of the tool body of the drilling tool. The dust storing part includes the inlet, a filter, a dust storing space and the outlet. The filter is disposed forward of the inlet of the dust storing part.

A hand-held electric hammer includes a handle arrangement on a tool carrier shank in which a striking mechanism actuated by an electric motor is accommodated and at the lower end of which a tool holder is arranged, which is suitable for receiving a tool attachment in the form of a spade blade, a demolition chisel, or a PVC scraper. The handle arrangement is designed as a T-shaped T-handle seated on the tool carrier shank, so that on both sides of the tool carrier shank there are two handles for both a left and a right hand of a user, whereby in the lower half of the tool carrier shank an additional handle stub is attached protruding in parallel with the T-handle from the tool carrier shank, which allows the electric hammer to be gripped with one hand on the T-handle and with the other hand on the additional handle stub.

A power tool including a brushless motor having a sensor circuit board has higher durability. The power tool includes a housing, a brushless motor including a rotor having a rotational shaft, a stator, and a sensor circuit board fixed to the stator and having a rotation detecting element that detects rotation of the rotor, and receiving the rotational shaft through the sensor circuit board, and a bearing held in the housing and supporting the rotational shaft. The bearing is located to overlap the rotation detecting element in an axial direction of the rotational shaft.

A power tool contains a brushless motor that includes a stator having a stack thickness and an outer diameter, a rotor having a diameter, and a motor shaft extending from the rotor and having a rotational axis. A drive mechanism is operably coupled to the motor shaft and is configured to drive a tool accessory in relation to a drive axis. A first housing houses the motor and the drive mechanism. The drive axis does not intersect the brushless motor, but the rotational axis of the motor shaft intersects the drive axis. The outer diameter of the stator is at least five times greater than the stack thickness. Furthermore, the diameter of the rotor is greater than the stack thickness.

A dust collector includes a body configured to be removably attached to a lower side of a tool body of a drilling tool, a dust storing part to be disposed on a lower side of the body, a sliding part having a suction port and held by the body so as to be slidable in a front-rear direction, a dust transfer passage extending within the sliding part and connecting the suction port and an inlet of the dust storing part, and a tool connection passage disposed within an internal space of the body and configured to connect an outlet of the dust storing part and an inlet of the tool body of the drilling tool. The dust storing part includes the inlet, a filter, a dust storing space and the outlet. The filter is disposed forward of the inlet of the dust storing part.

Vibrations resulting from a reciprocating piston and vibrations resulting from a rotating crank shaft are reduced effectively. A housing for a hammer drill accommodates, at a position at which a cap closes a supply port, a counterweight movable in cooperation with a crank mechanism to reduce vibrations in a striking axis direction resulting from a reciprocating piston, and a second counterweight rotatable in cooperation with the crank mechanism to reduce vibrations in a rotational direction resulting from a crank shaft.
