  • Patent number: 6419569
    Abstract: A hand-held belt sander has a housing, an on-off switch and a power supply conductor supported by the housing, a motor and a transmission received in the housing, a sanding belt, a driving roller driven by the motor and driving the sanding belt, a sliding shoe provided with a base, a deviating roller arranged so that said sanding belt is guidable over the deviating roller and the base of the sliding shoe, a unit for centering the sanding belt, a unit for clamping the sanding belt, the deviating roller and the driving roller have different diameters so that the sanding belt is guided inclinedly, the housing being elongated and the sanding belt being guided on guiding parts which are introduced in a rear region of the elongated housing so that with together with the sanding belt in a front region of the elongated housing a centrally forwardly extending, freely projecting, wedge tip-shaped contour is formed so that the hand-held belt sander as a whole has a lance-like contour.

  • Patent number: 5161334
    Abstract: For a hand power tool (1) with a multi-part manually operable quick-action chuck (2) for a disc-shaped tool (3) which is held on a shoulder (4) of a drive spindle (5) and onto which a force can be loaded from the other side by a pressure plate (7), with the pressure plate (7) concentrically embracing a threaded part (13) and being arranged positionally secured in relation to the threaded part and rotatable, with a hand screw part (11) embracing the threaded part (13) and th pressure plate (7) like a sleeve, and forming an annulus (14) with these, which contains at least a rolling contact bearing (9) and a drive which couples together the hand screw part (11), the threaded part (13), and the pressure plate (7), for improved function and a simplified design, and for a limitation of the maximum clamping pressure on the tool, a rolling planetary drive is formed from at least one of the rolling contact bearings (9, 12) in conjunction with a springly element (10), the drive which couples the pressure plate (7), the
