Abstract
A hand-held power tool, in particular an angle grinder, includes a tool receiver, a tool housing, and a drive motor arranged in the tool housing. The drive motor is configured to be switched on and off via an electric On/Off switch for driving the tool receiver. The hand-held power tool also includes an actuating device configured to actuate the On/Off switch. The actuating device has a pivotably mounted actuating element and a pivotably mounted pawl that is configured to be coupled to the actuating element. The pawl is further configured, in a free-running state, to move pivotably relative to the actuating element and, in an actuation state, to exert upon the actuating element an actuating force that actuates the actuating device.

A hand-held power tool, comprising:
- a tool receiver;
- a tool housing;
- a drive motor arranged in the tool housing and configured to drive the tool receiver, the drive motor further configured to be switched on and off via an electric On/Off switch;
- and
- an actuating device configured to actuate the On/Off switch, the actuating device having a pivotably mounted actuating element and a pivotably mounted pawl configured to be coupled to the actuating element,
- wherein the pawl is further configured, in a free-running state, to move pivotably relative to the actuating element without exerting an actuating force upon the actuating element and, in an actuation state, to exert upon the actuating element the actuating force that actuates the actuating device.
A portable power tool, comprising:
- a hand-held power tool, the hand-held power tool including:
- a tool receiver;
- a tool housing;
- a drive motor arranged in the tool housing and configured to drive the tool receiver, the drive motor further configured to be switched on and off via an electric On/Off switch;
- and
- an actuating device configured to actuate the On/Off switch, the actuating device having a pivotably mounted actuating element and a pivotably mounted pawl configured to be coupled to the actuating element,
- wherein the pawl is further configured, in a free-running state, to move pivotably relative to the actuating element without exerting an actuating force upon the actuating element and, in an actuation state, to exert upon the actuating element the actuating force that actuates the actuating device.
