A striking tool restricting movement of an intermediate member toward a striker reliably prevents no-load strokes. A hammer drill includes a cylindrical tool holder holding a tip tool, a motor, a piston that reciprocate with rotation from the motor, a striker that reciprocate in cooperation with the piston, an intermediate member reciprocably accommodated in the tool holder between the striker and the tip tool and in contact with a rear end of the tip tool at a normal strike to indirectly transmit a strike from the striker to the tip tool, and at least two ring members that move in a front-rear direction accommodated in the tool holder at a front of the intermediate member between the tool holder and the intermediate member. At least one ring member is made of metal.

An impact mechanism for an impact tool having a housing with a housing longitudinal axis, wherein the impact mechanism includes an impact mechanism longitudinal axis that is offset and substantially perpendicular to the housing longitudinal axis. The impact mechanism includes a gear carrier adapted to be driven by a motor of the impact tool to rotate about the impact mechanism longitudinal axis, a hammer slidably coupled to the gear carrier and rotatable about the impact mechanism longitudinal axis, the hammer includes a radial surface with a hammer lug extending therefrom, and an intermediate bit adapted to receive impact force from the hammer lug and transfer impact force to a tool bit.

An electric working machine with the same or more prevention or suppression of the transmission of the vibration than that of a related art because of having the less components and the less man-hours for assemblies than those of the related art is achieved. A hammer drill includes a motor serving as a driving source and is equipped with a drill bit driven by a driving force that is output from the motor. The hammer drill includes a main-body housing and a handle housing forming at least a part of an outer shell, and the main-body housing and the handle housing are connected to each other through an elastic body to be relatively movable. The elastic body is formed on the main-body housing and the handle housing by a double-layer molding, and is a part of a continuous resin cover covering surfaces of the main-body housing and the handle housing.

A hand-held power tool includes a tool holder, a motor for rotational and/or percussive driving of the tool holder, and a magnetic field sensor disposed in a vicinity of the motor, where a magnetic field of the motor that is created by driving the tool holder by the motor is detectable by the magnetic field sensor. The hand-held power tool further includes a control device where the control device determines a load state of the motor in dependence on a detected magnetic field of the motor and differentiates between an idle mode of the hand-held power tool and a load mode of the hand-held power tool based on the determined load state of the motor.

Position sensing related to a component within a power tool. The component within the power tool is, for example, a hammer of an impact mechanism and can include one or more sensible features that allow a controller of the power tool to precisely determine the position, speed, and acceleration of the component. One or more sensors can be used to determine the rotational position of the hammer and the axial position of the hammer. The rotational position of the hammer can then be used to calculate, for example, rotational speed and acceleration of the hammer. With precise determinations of the rotational and axial position of the hammer, the controller of the power tool is able to precisely time the impact between the hammer and the anvil to optimize the impact between the hammer and the anvil (e.g., to maximize energy transfer between the hammer and the anvil).

A power tool, such as a rotary hammer, includes a housing, an output shaft for mounting a tool accessary and a motor having a motor shaft that generates a rotational output for rotating and linearly hammering the output shaft. The rotational output of the motor shaft is coupled to the output shaft via a driving mechanism that includes a hammer mechanism. An intervening member is axially movable relative to the motor shaft and is operably coupled between the motor shaft and the hammer mechanism. The hammer mechanism and the output shaft are supported by a movable support that is axially movable relative to the housing. Because the output shaft and the driving mechanism are movable relative to the motor and the housing, which preferably includes handle, via the intervening member and the movable support during hammering operations, vibration generated during hammering operations can be dampened before reaching the housing.

An electric hammer includes a housing, an electric motor, an output assembly, an impact assembly, a mounting shaft, a clutch assembly, and a switching assembly. The mounting shaft is rotatable about a second axis. When the electric hammer is in the drill mode, a sleeve of the output assembly rotates. When the electric hammer is in the hammer drill mode, the sleeve rotates and an impact block of the impact assembly reciprocates in the sleeve. The switching assembly is configured to switch the clutch assembly between a first state and a second state and includes a switching element. The switching element includes a forced end and a drive end, the output assembly moving along a first axis drives the forced end to move, and the drive end is configured to drive the clutch assembly to be switched to the first state.

A hand-held power tool includes a tool holder for holding a tool on a working axis, a pneumatic striking mechanism for striking the tool, and an absorber, which includes a bending spring, situated transversely to the working axis, and a mass body. A countershaft is driven by the motor around a rotation axis which runs in parallel to the working axis. A wobble drive for driving the pneumatic striking mechanism is situated on the countershaft. In addition, a cam disk is situated on the countershaft and includes a cam which projects in a start-up direction which runs in parallel to the working axis. The bending spring includes a counterpiece provided relative to the cam. The cam, which abuts the counterpiece, pretensions the bending spring in the start-up direction.

A power tool includes a motor, a drive mechanism, and an impact mechanism. The drive mechanism is capable of driving a tip functional element to rotate about an output axis. The impact mechanism is capable of abutting against the tip functional element and capable of driving the tip functional element. The impact mechanism includes an impact rod, an impact power piece, and an impact block. The impact rod abuts against the tip functional element. The impact power piece is used for generating impact power. The impact block is disposed between the impact rod and the impact power piece, capable of forming a gas space with the impact power piece, and capable of reciprocating when impacted by the impact power generated by the impact power piece. A minimum length of the gas space in a direction of the output axis is less than or equal to 13 mm.
