20080245542 | Hammer drill - It is an object of the invention to provide an improvement in ease of operation of a driving mode switching mechanism in a hammer drill. According to the invention, a representative hammer drill includes a driving mode switching mechanism which has an operating part, a first switching member and a second switching member. The operating part can be turned to at least three rotating positions in its circumferential direction, while the operating part can be turned 360° on the rotation axis in the both directions. Thus, the user can select the desired driving mode in the shortest turning distance without passing through an unnecessary driving mode position. Therefore, ease of operation in mode change can be enhanced. | 10-09-2008 |

20100236801 | IMPACT TOOL - It is an object of the invention to provide a technique that contributes to realizing both the switch selecting function and the handle vibration-proofing function, in an impact tool which can switch an operation mode of a tool bit. An impact tool includes a motor | 09-23-2010 |
20110008117 | DUST COLLECTING ATTACHMENT - It is an object of the invention to provide a technique that contributes to rationalization of dust collection, in a dust collecting attachment for use on a power tool. | 01-13-2011 |
20110008118 | DUST COLLECTING ATTACHMENT - A technique for allowing a user to operate an operating member disposed in a front end region of a power tool in the state in which a dust collecting attachment designed to be attached to the front end region of the power tool is left attached to the power tool. The dust collecting attachment is used on a power tool having an operating member for removal and/or bit angle setting of a tool bit coupled to a front end region of a tool body. The dust collecting attachment has a dust collecting member which can be attached to the front end region of the tool body. The dust collecting member has an opening formed in a region which faces the operating member in the state in which the dust collecting member is attached to the tool body, and the operating member can be operated by user's finger through the opening. | 01-13-2011 |
20110114347 | HAND-HELD TOOL - An effective technique for detecting several load conditions different in presence or absence and magnitude of load applied to a tool bit is provided in a hand-held tool. A hand-held tool | 05-19-2011 |
20110308830 | POWER TOOL - A power tool that performs a predetermined operation by using a tool bit and has a grip part and a dust suction device. The dust suction device has a dust suction part that extends in an axial direction of the tool bit and sucks and collects dust generated during operation at a tip of the tool bit, and the dust suction part can be moved between a first position in which the dust suction part covers a bit tip of the tool bit and a second position in which the bit tip is exposed. The dust suction device further has an operation mode switching mechanism that is capable of switching between a first operation mode in which the dust suction part is allowed to move between the first and second positions and a second operation mode in which the dust suction part is locked in the second position, and the operation mode switching mechanism is provided in a region of the grip part or its vicinity such that it can be operated with a user's hand holding the grip part. | 12-22-2011 |
20120067605 | STRIKING TOOL - A technique for improving the vibration-proof effect and usability of a handle is provided in an impact tool. An impact tool is provided which linearly drives a tool bit in an axial direction thereof to cause the tool bit to perform a predetermined hammering operation. The impact tool includes a motor, a striking mechanism part, that is driven by the motor and causes the tool bit to linearly move, a tool body that houses the motor and the striking mechanism part, an outer shell housing that covers at least part of the tool body and is connected to the tool body via a vibration-proofing first elastic element so as to be movable in a direction transverse to the axial direction of the tool bit with respect to the tool body, and a handle which is designed to be held by a user and connected to an opposite side of the outer shell housing from the tool bit via a vibration-proofing second elastic element so as to be movable in the axial direction of the tool bit with respect to the outer shell housing. | 03-22-2012 |
20120205131 | POWER TOOL - An improved power tool is provided which can alert a user of any halfway selection of a driving mode of a tool bit. A representative power tool is provided which is capable of switching among driving modes different in driving state of a tool bit | 08-16-2012 |
20120279740 | STRIKING TOOL - A technique for making a handle vibration-proof while avoiding size increase is provided in an impact tool. The impact tool has a striking mechanism part for driving a tool bit in its axial direction, a motor for driving the striking mechanism part, a tool body housing the motor and striking mechanism part, an outer shell housing covering part of the tool body, a handle that is integrally formed with the outer shell housing and extends transversely to the axial direction, a first handle end portion formed on one extending end of the handle, a second handle end portion formed on the other extending end of the handle, a first elastic element that connects the first handle end portion and tool body for relative movement in the axial direction, and a second elastic element that connects the second handle end portion and tool body for relative movement in the axial direction. | 11-08-2012 |
