a tail cover attached to a lower end of said motor housing,
wherein a projection, which projects beyond said tail cover, is integrally-formed with said motor housing, and
wherein said projection comprises a rib between said tool holder and said tail cover.
7. The tool of claim 6 , wherein said projection projects beyond a tangential line between a lower end portion of said tool holder and a lower end portion of said tail cover on a side of said tool holder.
8. The tool of claim 6 , wherein said projection comprises a downward projection on a lower end of said motor housing.
9. The tool of claim 8 , wherein said downward projection projects beyond said tail cover through a hole formed in said tail cover.
10. The tool of claim 9 , wherein said tail cover does not protrude beyond a tangential line between a lower end of said rib and a lower end of said downward projection.
11. A percussion tool comprising:
a motor;
a tool holder detachably holding a tool bit;
a member that converts a turning force of said motor into a reciprocating force, and transmits the reciprocating force to said tool bit;
a motor housing comprising a hard material that covers said motor; and
a tail cover attached to a lower end of said motor housing,
wherein a projection projects from said motor housing beyond a tangential line between a lower end portion of the tool holder and a lower end portion of the tail cover on a side of the tool holder.
12. The tool of claim 11 , wherein said projection comprises a rib.
13. The tool of claim 12 , wherein said rib comprises right and left projections above said tail cover and covering an upper side of brush holding holes formed in said motor housing.
14. The tool of claim 13 , wherein said tail cover comprises brush pressers that engage engaging portions of said right and left projections.
15. The tool of claim 11 , wherein said projection comprises a plurality of ribs that provide a three-point support.
16. The tool of claim 11 , further comprising a downward projection on a lower end of said motor housing.
17. The tool of claim 16 , wherein said downward projection projects beyond said tail cover through a hole in said tail cover.
