  • Publication number: 20180145523
    Abstract: A battery charger is disclosed. The battery charger includes a charger housing which has a main charging interface for connecting a main tool battery of a hand-held machine tool. The main charging interface is arranged on a connection side of the charger housing. The battery charger has at least one secondary charging interface arranged on the connection side of the charger housing. The secondary charging interface is configured to be displaceable between a charging position and a rest position so that a secondary tool battery can be connected to the secondary charging interface when the secondary charging interface is in the charging position.
