Abstract

An insertion tool includes at least one machining region, and at least one fastening region. The at least one fastening region is configured to couple to at least one tool holding fixture of a handheld machine tool, and has at least two fastening elements arranged substantially into a circle around a drive axis. The at least one fastening region is further configured to be at least substantially free of recesses in a radial direction within the circle.

Claims (29)

1. An insertion tool comprising:

at least one machining region; and

at least one fastening region configured to couple to at least one tool holding fixture of a handheld machine tool and including at least two fastening elements arranged substantially into a circle around a drive axis,

wherein the at least one fastening region is further configured to be at least substantially free of recesses in a radial direction within the circle; and

wherein the at least one fastening region is further configured to be completely free of fastening recesses within the circle.

2. The insertion tool as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the at least one fastening region further includes at least one coding element.

3. The insertion tool at least as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the coding element is at least substantially arranged in the radial direction within the circle.

4. The insertion tool at least as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the coding element is at least substantially formed by an at least substantially plate-like material extent.

5. The insertion tool as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the coding element is configured to prevent the insertion tool from being coupled to a tool holding fixture that does not correspond with the coding element.

6. The insertion tool as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the at least one fastening region is configured to be free of fastening elements in a radial direction within the circle.

7. The insertion tool as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the at least two fastening elements are configured to fasten the insertion tool in at least one of: (i) an axial direction; (ii) a radial direction; and (iii) a circumferential direction.

8. The insertion tool as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the at least two fastening elements are configured at least partially as an edge of at least one fastening recess.

9. The insertion tool at least as claimed in claim 8 , wherein the at least one fastening recess is at least substantially enclosed by at least one material extent.

10. The insertion tool as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the at least one fastening region includes at least one material extent at least substantially located in the radial direction outside the circle.

11. The insertion tool as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the insertion tool is configured as a handheld machine tool insertion tool.

12. The insertion tool as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the at least one fastening region is configured to couple to the at least one tool holding fixture such that the insertion tool is configured for at least one of oscillating movement and rotatory movement.

13. The insertion tool as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the fastening region is free of a centering recess configured to center the insertion tool relative to the at least one tool holding fixture.

14. A handheld machine tool, comprising:

a tool holding fixture; and

at least one insertion tool including: (i) at least one machining region; and (ii) at least one fastening region configured to couple to the tool holding fixture and having at least two fastening elements arranged substantially into a circle around a drive axis,

wherein the at least one fastening region is further configured to be completely free of recesses in a radial direction within the circle.

15. A system, comprising:

at least one handheld machine tool including at least one tool holding fixture; and

at least one insertion tool including: (i) at least one machining region; and (ii) at least one fastening region configured to couple to the at least one tool holding fixture and having at least two fastening elements arranged substantially into a circle around a drive axis,

wherein the at least one fastening region is further configured to be completely free of fastening recesses within the circle.

16. An insertion tool, comprising:

at least one machining region; and

at least one fastening region configured to couple to a tool holding fixture, and having at least two fastening elements arranged substantially into a circle around a drive axis,

wherein the at least one fastening region is further configured to be completely free of recesses in a radial direction within the circle.
