A tool holder system with first and second spindles, a locking ring slideably mounted on the first spindle, a first biasing mechanism biasing the locking ring towards an indentation position where the locking ring surrounds an indentation on the first spindle, and a moveable locking element mounted on the second spindle, the locking element being engageable to the indentation. The first spindle can be unlocked from the second spindle by sliding the locking ring away from the indentation position against the biasing force of the biasing mechanism and towards the second spindle. Such action moves the locking element to disengage from the indentation.

A power tool adapted to impart axial impacts to a tool bit includes a housing having a motor housing portion and a handle portion extending transversely from the motor housing portion, an electric motor supported in the motor housing portion and defining a motor axis, a non-rotatable barrel extending from the motor housing portion and defining a barrel axis parallel to the motor axis, a reciprocation drive assembly coupled to the electric motor and configured to convert torque from the electric motor to reciprocating motion of a piston received within the barrel for reciprocation therein along the barrel axis, a striker received within the barrel for reciprocation in response to the reciprocation of the piston, and an anvil at least partially received within the barrel and positioned between the striker and tool bit.

The anvil communicates axial impacts to the tool bit in response to reciprocation of the striker.

A drilling tool configured to operate in two drilling modes, respectively with and without hammer action, said tool comprising a front end equipped with a rotating part for mounting a drill bit by way of an SDS-type push-fitting, characterized in that said rotating part comprises a mechanism for the removable attachment to a first longitudinal end of a tubular extension, this tubular extension being configured to extend along and around a drill bit mounted in the rotating part and comprising a second longitudinal end configured to bear at least one screw-driving element, such that the tool can be used for a screw-driving operation even when it is equipped with the drill bit.

In a hand-held machine tool, having a tool holder for holding at least one first tool, which has a tang having a first coupling contour that is able to be connected to the tool holder and having a striking mechanism for the striking drive of the first tool connected to the tool holder in the axial direction of the tool holder in a striking operation associated with the hand-held machine tool, a chuck adapter is provided to hold at least one second tool, which has a tang provided with a second coupling contour, which is able to be connected to the chuck adapter in a torsionally fixed manner.

A tool holder for a power tool comprising: a body defining a passageway in which a shank of a cutting tool can be located; at least one axial locking element moveably mounted within the body and which is capable of being moved between and held in at least a first release position and a second locking position where it projects into the passageway where it is capable of engagingly a shank of a cutting tool when located within the passageway in order to axially restrict the movement of the shank in the passageway; and at least one axial guide moveably mounted within the body and which can be moved between and held in at least two positions, including one position where it projects into the passageway where it is capable of engagingly supporting a side of a shank of a cutting tool when located within the passageway.

A hand-held power tool includes a tool receiver that includes a tubular tool holder configured to lock an insert tool therein by an assigned locking device via at least one locking element. The locking device includes a pressure sleeve that is spring-loaded via an assigned spring element, and a stop sleeve, the stop sleeve having a contact surface on its inner circumference, and the spring-loaded pressure sleeve pressing the at least one locking element in a locking position against the contact surface. The tubular tool holder has at least one recess in which the at least one locking element in the locking position is located, at least portionally, the at least one recess having a ramp-type guideway. The at least one locking element is displaceable along the ramp-type guideway from the locking position to an unlocking position.

A hand-held power tool includes a tool receiver with a tubular tool holder and an assigned locking device. The assigned locking device includes a locking element configured to lock an insert tool in the tubular tool holder, a pressure sleeve that is spring-loaded via an assigned spring element, and a stop sleeve, the spring-loaded pressure sleeve configured to press the locking element in a locking position against the stop sleeve. The tubular tool holder includes at least one recess in which the locking element in the locking position is located, at least portionally. The stop sleeve has, on its inner circumference, at least one contact surface that is matched to an outer contour of the locking element such that a first surface contact between the at least one contact surface and the locking element is established in the locking position.

A tool receptacle is disclosed. The tool receptacle has a receiving sleeve which has a prismatic or cylindrical cavity for receiving a tool and an elongated hole for receiving a locking body. The elongated hole has a closed edge formed of two opposing longitudinal sides at a constant distance and two end sides completing the elongated hole. An extension along the working axis of at least one of the end sides is less than half of the constant distance of the opposing longitudinal sides. A groove running parallel to the working axis is provided on an inner surface of the receptacle sleeve. The groove is disposed in an extending manner at the elongated hole on the inner surface along the working axis.

Two balls can reliably retract for smooth insertion of a tip tool into a tool holder. A hammer drill includes a tool holder, two balls in reception holes in the tool holder, a guide washer urging the balls forward in the reception holes with a coil spring, a pressure ring adjacent to a front of the guide washer, and an operation sleeve allowing the pressure ring to move backward and forward between locked and unlocked positions of the two balls. The guide washer includes, on its front surface, a projection toward the pressure ring to cause, with the pressure ring at the locked position, the guide washer to be inclined with respect to an axis of the tool holder for a first ball to move more backward than a second ball.

A tool holder for a rotary impact tool can include a plurality of retention members, an anvil movably received in a spindle and configured to impact a bit, the spindle defining a longitudinal axis and including a channel extending along the longitudinal axis, and a plurality of slots that open into the channel and are sized to receive the plurality of retention members, and a chuck collar that is rotatable about the longitudinal axis to selectively place the tool holder in an unlocked configuration and a locked configuration. The chuck collar can include a plurality of sockets sized to receive the plurality of retention members. The plurality of retention members can be recessed in the plurality of sockets in the unlocked configuration and extend through the plurality of slots into the internal volume in the locked configuration.
