Abstract
A hand-held power tool including a housing (1) having a handle (7), and a holding device (3) having a catch element (9) with a free end (9a) for suspending the power tool, with the free end (9a) having a main axis (K) intersecting a normal live (N) that extends transverse to the tool plane which is defined by the plane of the handle and the operational direction of the tool, and passes through the center of gravity (S) of the tool.
Claims6
A hand-held power tool, comprising a housing (1) having a handle (7), with a plane of the handle (7) defining, together with an operational direction (A) of the tool, a tool plane;
- and a holding device (3) having a catch element (9) with a free end (9a) for suspending the power tool, the free end (9a) having a main axis (K) intersecting a normal line (N) that extends transverse to the tool plane and passes through a center of gravity (S) of the tool,
- wherein the holding device (3) comprises a locking device (11) having a first release position in which the catch element (9) is pivotable about a pivot axis (12), at least one holding position in which the catch element (9) is fixedly secured to the housing (1) and a second release position in which the catch element (9) is completely detachable from the housing (1),
- wherein the housing (11) has a through-bore (17) for receiving the catch element (9), and the locking device (11) has at least one closed recess (14) extending radially relative to the through-bore (17), at least one open recess (14a, 14b) extending radially relative to the through-bore (17), and a locking element entirely formed on the catch element, the locking element having a projection (13) pivotable between a first position in which the locking element projection (13) engages in the at least one closed recess (14) for retaining the catch element (9) in the holding position, and a second position corresponding to the second release position of the catch element (9) and in which the locking element projection (13) is located in an axial projection region of the at least one open recess (14a, 14b) and the catch element along with the locking element (9) is detachable from the housing (11) by being pulled out of the through-bore (17) by an axial movement relative thereto.
