A dust extractor for a drill includes a housing having an engagement region for receiving the drill when connected to the dust extractor; and a latch mechanism. The latch mechanism includes a latch moveably mounted within the housing and moveable between a first position and a second position, a biasing mechanism biasing the latch towards the first position, and a catch attached to the latch. The catch has a chamfer which is arranged so that the chamfer slidingly engages the drill and moves the latch from its first position towards its second position when the drill enters the engagement region.

A power tool includes a drilling tool and a dust collector configured to be removably attached to the drilling tool. The dust collector includes a dust collector body, a passage part provided in the dust collector body and having elasticity, and a storing part configured to be removably attached to the dust collector body and to store dust. The passage part includes a drilling tool mounting port part configured to be connected to the drilling tool while pressing a specified region of the drilling tool, and a storing part mounting port part configured to be connected to the storing part while pressing a specified region of the storing part. Air containing the dust is led through the dust collector body to the storing part, and the air from which the dust has been separated in the storing part is led through the passage part into the drilling tool.
