Twisting of a locking member due to cogging torque is reduced without lowering the locking and unlocking operability for a user. A power tool includes a housing, an electric motor located inside the housing and including a permanent magnet, a shaft rotatable about an axis relative to the housing to transmit power from the electric motor, a locking member movable between a lock position and an unlock position in a nonenergized state of the electric motor and engageable with the shaft at the lock position to lock rotation of the shaft, and an abutting member that applies, to the locking member at the lock position, a force in a direction opposite to an axial torque caused by the permanent magnet and applied to the locking member.

A blade attachment-detachment assisting apparatus includes a nut rotating part having an engagement pin that engages with an engagement hole of a nut, a nut grip part that grips an annular groove of the nut, a housing that supports the nut rotating part rotatably by a predetermined angle, and a lock mechanism. The nut rotating part is capable of advancing and retreating, relative to the housing, to a protrusion position and a fixing position at which engagement between the nut grip part and the nut is kept, and is fixed to the housing with the intermediary of a spring. The lock mechanism includes an inside surface by which advancing and retreating of the nut rotating part are restricted through engagement of the nut rotating part with the housing when the housing is rotated in one direction at the fixing position to which the nut rotating part has been pushed.

A quick tensioning device for a portable machine tool, in particular for an angle grinding machine, includes at least one output shaft which can be rotated, at least one clamping unit that is at least partly arranged in the output shaft and has at least one clamping element, which is movably mounted at least about and/or along a movement axis of the clamping unit, for fixing an insert tool unit to the output shaft without tools, and at least one torque transmission unit for transmitting a torque to the insert tool unit when the insert tool unit is arranged on the output shaft, said torque transmission unit having at least one torque transmission element which is formed separately from the output shaft. The quick tensioning device includes at least one securing unit at least for securing the torque transmission element to the output shaft in a rotationally fixed manner.

The invention relates to a tool device which is suitable for use with a machine tool, in particular a hand guided machine tool, having a driving device moving, in particular in an oscillating manner, around a driving axis. The tool device has an attachment device which allows it to be fastened on a machine tool such that its driving axis and an axis of rotation of the tool substantially coincide. The attachment device, for absorbing the driving force, has at least two driving area regions, which are spaced apart from said tool axis of rotation and each has a plurality of surface points. The tangent planes to said surface-area points are inclined in regard to an axial plane, which encloses the tool axis of rotation. Furthermore, said tangent planes are inclined regard to a radial plane which extends perpendicularly to the tool axis of rotation. This means that the torque introduced into the tool device by the machine tool, via the driving device, is reliably absorbed.
