Abstract: A handheld work apparatus includes a work tool, a belt drive, a drive motor configured to drive the work tool via the belt drive, a brake unit configured to act on the belt drive, and a holding arrangement. The brake unit has a braking position and a released position and the holding arrangement is configured to hold the brake unit in the released position. The holding arrangement includes an electromagnet to which current is supplied during operation of the work apparatus.

Abstract: The invention relates to a marker element for marking body tissue. The marker element has an at least approximately rotation-symmetric geometry about a longitudinal axis, is formed by interlinked, elastic and preformed wire members and can assume a radially compressed and a radially expanded state. The wire members are interlinked at their respective ends, preferably in pairs.

Abstract: The invention refers to an ultrasound marker that comprises an enclosure. The marker comprises an energy transducer for transducing impeding sound energy into electric energy. The marker also comprises an ultrasound emitter that is configured to generate an ultrasound signal when fed with electric energy. The marker further comprises a trigger that is operatively connected to the ultrasound emitter and that can be activated via a wireless signal. The trigger is configured to control the generation of ultrasound by the ultrasound emitter in dependence of the wireless signal.

Abstract: A handheld work apparatus has a drive motor which drives a work tool rotationally via a belt drive. The belt drive has a first, driving pulley and a second, driven pulley. The second pulley is connected fixedly to the work tool so as to rotate therewith. The rotational speed of the second pulley is lower during operation than that of the first pulley. A brake unit acts on the belt drive. A first drive belt of a first stage and a second drive belt of a second stage act between the pulleys to transfer the drive torque. The belts each bring about a rotational speed reduction. The belt drive includes a redirection roll which bears against the belt, via which the highest drive torque is transmitted during operation. As a result, a braking operation of the work tool is enabled independently of the rotational speed of the tool.

Abstract: A handheld work apparatus has a drive motor which drives a work tool in rotation via a belt drive. The belt drive has at least one first, driving pulley and at least one second, driven pulley. Between the first pulley and the second pulley there acts at least one drive belt for transmitting the drive torque. A second pulley is connected to the tool for conjoint rotation. The rotational speed of the second pulley is less than the rotational speed of the first pulley during operation. The work apparatus has a brake unit which acts on the first pulley. The belt drive includes at least one redirection roll. During braking, at least one redirection roll bears on the tight side of each drive belt which acts between the first pulley and the second pulley. This allows a simple structure and safe braking of the work tool.
