    Abstract: A power tool, wherein a lubricant for gearbox lubrication can be accommodated in a gearbox housing interior of the gearbox housing, wherein the output shaft has a first end on which an insert tool unit can be mounted, and has a second end, wherein the output shaft is designed as a hollow spindle with a cavity. A hollow cylinder section is formed at its second end. An actuator is arranged in a rotationally resistant manner to the gearbox housing, which engages with the hollow cylinder section. Between the hollow cylinder section and the actuator, a gap extends along the axis of rotation which at its first end is connected to the cavity and at its second end to the gearbox housing interior. A shaft seal is disposed in the gap, which counteracts the leakage of lubricant from the gap towards the first end of the output shaft.

  • Patent number: 11590584
    Abstract: The invention relates to a tool device which is suitable for use with a machine tool, in particular a hand guided machine tool, having a driving device moving, in particular in an oscillating manner, around a driving axis. The tool device has an attachment device which allows it to be fastened on a machine tool such that its driving axis and an axis of rotation of the tool substantially coincide. The attachment device, for absorbing the driving force, has at least two driving area regions, which are spaced apart from said tool axis of rotation and each has a plurality of surface points. The tangent planes to said surface-area points are inclined in regard to an axial plane, which encloses the tool axis of rotation. Furthermore, said tangent planes are inclined regard to a radial plane which extends perpendicularly to the tool axis of rotation. This means that the torque introduced into the tool device by the machine tool, via the driving device, is reliably absorbed.
