Reciprocating tool

A reciprocating tool comprising:

• a motor having an output shaft;
• a driving mechanism that includes a reciprocating member configured to reciprocate along a driving axis in a first direction using power from the motor, the driving mechanism being configured to linearly drive a tool accessory in response to reciprocation of the reciprocating member;
• a body housing that houses the motor and the driving mechanism;
• a movable part that is connected to the body housing via a first elastic member and a second elastic member such that the movable part is movable relative to the body housing in the first direction between an initial position and a closer position, the movable part being closer to the body housing in the closer position than in the initial position, the movable part including a grip configured to be gripped by a user;
• and
• a vibration control mechanism in the body housing and including at least one weight, the vibration control mechanism being configured such that the at least one weight moves in a direction opposite to the reciprocating member in response to the reciprocation of the reciprocating member,
• wherein:
• a center of gravity of the at least one weight is offset from the driving axis in a second direction orthogonal to the driving axis;
• in the second direction, the first elastic member is closer to the center of gravity than the second elastic member;
• the first elastic member, the second elastic member and the movable part are configured such that a first elastic member mounting load on the first elastic member is smaller than a second elastic member mounting load on the second elastic member;
• the driving mechanism includes a crank shaft that is (i) operably coupled to the output shaft and (ii) configured to convert rotation of the output shaft into linear motion of the reciprocating member;
• and
• the at least one weight and the crank shaft are on opposite sides of the driving axis in the second direction.
