  • Water supply for a hand-held power tool
    Patent number: 8062100
    Abstract: A water supplying device of a hand-held power tool has a water-conveying line and a valve arrangement arranged in the line for controlling the water flow through the line. The valve arrangement has a control valve with a valve body adjustable across a positioning travel. The opening cross-section of the control valve, as a function of the positioning travel, has a progressive characteristic line. An arrangement for actuating the water supplying device has an actuator that is separate from additional control elements of the power tool.

  • Water supply for a hand-held power tool
    Patent number: 7713111
    Abstract: A device for supplying water to a cutting wheel of a hand-held cut-off machine has a water-conducting line and a valve arrangement arranged in the line. The valve arrangement has a shut-off valve for controlling the water flow flowing through the line. The shut-off valve is actuated as a function of an operating signal of the cut-off machine such that in operation of the cut-off machine the water flow through the line is released by the shut-off valve. The shut-off valve interrupts the water flow through the line when the operating signal is absent.
