To reduce size increase, a power tool includes a motor, an output shaft located frontward from the motor, rotatable by the motor, and having an insertion hole extending rearward from a front end of the output shaft, a bearing supporting the output shaft in a rotatable manner, a locking member supported by the output shaft and movable to a locking position for locking a tip tool placed in the insertion hole and to an unlocking position for unlocking the tip tool, a bit sleeve surrounding the output shaft, and movable to a movement-restricting position for restricting radially outward movement of the locking member and to a movement-permitting position for permitting radially outward movement of the locking member, and an operable member operable to move the bit sleeve and at least partly overlapping the bearing in an axial direction.

A hand-held power tool includes a drive unit configured to drive an insertion tool in at least one non-percussive operating mode. The drive unit includes a percussion mechanism for percussive driving of the insertion tool in an associated percussion mode. The hand-held power tool further include a user guidance unit configured to be actuated by a user and a communication interface configured to communicate with the user guidance unit and to receive, from the user guidance unit, changeover instructions for changing over the drive unit between the at least one non-percussive operating mode and the associated percussion mode in an application-specific manner.

A hand tool device includes: a striking mechanism which has a striker, a striker driving device, and a striker arresting device. In the case of a first drill rotation direction, the striker driving device is configured to propel the striker in at least a striking direction. The striker arresting device is configured to prevent the striker driving device from being operated in the case of a second drill rotation direction.

A secondary hammer support structure in a rotary impact tool is structured such that a plurality of steel balls are disposed between a secondary hammer and a retaining member. The plurality of steel balls are arranged between the first retaining groove of the secondary hammer and the second retaining groove of the retaining member. The retaining member is formed as a member separate from the spindle and has a retaining surface for retaining steel balls and a mounting surface mounted to the spindle so as not be rotatable. The mounting surface of the retaining member is mounted to a front member of a carrier.

An apparatus for generating impulse-dynamic process forces includes a pressure chamber, a connecting chamber and a bolt chamber. The pressure chamber includes a plunger arranged to be pushed into the pressure chamber for compression of a hydraulic medium located therein. In the connecting chamber there is displaceably arranged a stepped piston which has a valve body for closing an orifice connecting the pressure chamber to the connecting chamber. In the bolt chamber there is located a displaceable impact bolt which has a first bolt portion and a second bolt portion. The first bolt portion seals an interior space of the bolt chamber that surrounds the second bolt portion. Connected to the bolt chamber there is at least one pressure reservoir containing pressurised pressure medium, which pressure reservoir is in communicating connection via a connection port with the interior space of the bolt chamber.

Illustrative embodiments of impact tools with impact mechanisms rigidly coupled to electric motors are disclosed. In at least one illustrative embodiment, an impact tool may comprise an impact mechanism, an electric motor, and a control circuit. The impact mechanism may comprise a hammer and an anvil, the hammer being configured to rotate about a first axis and to periodically impact the anvil to drive rotation of the anvil about the first axis. The electric motor may comprise a rotor that is rigidly coupled to the impact mechanism, the electric motor being configured to drive rotation of the hammer about the first axis. The control circuit may be configured to supply a current to the electric motor and to prevent the current from exceeding a threshold in response to the hammer impacting the anvil.

An impact tool includes a motor, a first hammer, an anvil, and a second hammer. The first hammer is configured to be rotated by driving of the motor. The anvil is configured to be hammered in a rotation direction by the first hammer. The second hammer is configured to be switchable between a state being linked and a state not being linked to the first hammer. The impact tool ensures selections of a first hammering mode in which only the first hammer hammers the anvil and a second hammering mode in which the first hammer and the second hammer hammer the anvil.

The invention relates to a power drill, having a tool-clamping device that is fastened to a spindle shaft, having a torque clutch that includes an axially movable clutch plate on which an axial force is exerted by a plurality of compression springs that cooperate at least indirectly with an adjusting nut situated on a housing component. The compression springs are accommodated in first recesses embodied in the longitudinal direction of the housing component. A device for axially moving an axial bearing situated on the spindle shaft, is provided at the end of the spindle shaft oriented toward the tool-clamping device. According to the invention, on its side oriented toward the clutch plate, the device for axially moving the axial bearing has at least one actuating section that is situated in a second recess of the housing component and on the side oriented toward the clutch plate, cooperates with an adjusting element for the device.
