Abstract

A power tool braking device, in particular a portable power tool braking device, for a portable power tool has at least one magnetic field braking unit. The power tool braking device comprises at least one drive unit which has at least one drive element, on which at least one braking element of the magnetic field braking unit is arranged.

Claims (16)

1. A power tool braking device of a portable power tool comprising:

at least one magnetic field braking unit having at least two braking elements; and

at least one output unit including at least one output element, on which at least one braking element of the magnetic field braking unit is supported,

wherein the at least two braking elements are permanent magnets configured to provide a braking force based on the magnetic field between the braking elements, and

wherein the at least one output unit includes two output elements rotatable with each other and each of the braking elements is supported on a corresponding one of the two output elements.

2. The power tool braking device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the at least one output unit includes a bevel gear.

3. The power tool braking device as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the at least one magnetic field braking unit is positioned at least in part after an input gearwheel of the bevel gear along a flux of force.

4. The power tool braking device as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising at least one mechanical activation unit configured to change at least one characteristic of a magnetic field of the at least one magnetic field braking unit by relative movement of said braking elements.

5. The power tool braking device as claimed in claim 4 , wherein the at least one mechanical activation unit is configured to change a pole position of the permanent magnets of the braking elements relative to each other.

6. The power tool braking device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the at least one magnetic field braking unit includes an eddy current brake.

7. The power tool braking device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the at least one magnetic field braking unit includes a hysteresis brake.

8. A hand-held power tool, comprising:

a power tool braking device including at least one magnetic field braking unit and at least one output unit,

wherein the at least one magnetic field braking unit has at least two braking elements;

wherein the at least two braking elements are permanent magnets configured to provide a braking force based on the magnetic field between the braking elements, and

wherein the at least one output unit includes two output elements rotatable with each other and each of the braking elements of the magnetic field braking unit is supported on a corresponding one of the two output elements.
