Abstract

A hand-held power tool includes a work spindle ( 4 )in which a chuck ( 3 ) for receiving an axially displaceable, within limits, percussion working tool ( 2 ), is mounted on. The work spindle ( 4 ) having a coaxial die ( 5 ) located in its interior for imparting blows to the percussion working tool ( 2 ). At least one cooling air channel ( 7 ) extends in an outer housing ( 6 ) radially outwardly of the work spindle and opens into a chuck free space ( 8 ) which adjoins the work spindle ( 4 ). The at least one cooling air channel ( 7 ) communicates with the interior of the work spindle through an opening ( 10, 10′ ) formed in the work spindle. A seal ( 9, 9′ ) completely flowtight seals the free space ( 8 ) outwardly.

Claims (5)

1. A hand-held power tool, comprising an outer housing ( 6 ); a work spindle ( 4 ) located in the outer housing ( 6 ); a chuck ( 3 ) for receiving an axially displaceable, within limits, percussion working tool ( 2 ) and mounted on the work spindle ( 4 ), the work spindle ( 4 ) including a coaxial die ( 5 ) located in an interior thereof for imparting blows to the percussion working tool ( 2 ); at least one cooling air channel ( 7 ) extending in the outer housing ( 6 ) radially outwardly of the work spindle and opening into a free space ( 8 ) of the chuck ( 3 ) which adjoins the work spindle ( 4 ) and communicates with the interior of the work spindle through at least one opening ( 10 , 10 ′) formed in the work spindle ( 4 ); and a seal ( 9 , 9 ′) circumferentially surrounding an annular gap ( 11 ) that adjoins the free space ( 8 ) and is formed between the outer housing ( 6 ) and the chuck ( 3 ) for completely flowtight sealing the free space ( 8 ) outwardly.

2. A hand-held power tool according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one opening ( 10 , 10 ′) of the work spindle ( 4 ) is located in front of, in an operational direction, a cusp point of the die ( 5 ).

3. A hand-held power tool according to claim 1 , wherein the free space ( 8 ) adjoins a locking opening ( 16 ) formed in the work spindle ( 4 ) for receiving a locking member ( 15 ) radially displaceable relative to the work spindle.

4. A hand-held power tool according to claim 1 , wherein the seal ( 9 ) is formed as an elastically radially preloaded, annular diaphragm seal.

5. A hand-held tool according to claim 1 , wherein the seal ( 9 ′) is formed as an annular labyrinth seal completely circumferentially surrounding, in a contact-free manner, an annular gap ( 11 ) that adjoins the free space ( 8 ) and is formed between the outer housing ( 6 ) and the chuck ( 3 ).
