  • Patent number: 10330307
    Abstract: A screwdriver includes a handle having a longitudinal axis. At the one end of the handle, the screwdriver includes a bit holder extending in the direction of the longitudinal axis or a screwdriver blade extending in the direction of the longitudinal axis. The screwdriver is further includes a drive mechanism in the handle. The drive mechanism causes a bit holder in the handle or the screwdriver blade opposite the handle to rotate. The drive mechanism includes a motor and a freewheel through which the motor can be coupled to the bit holder or the screwdriver blade. The freewheel is designed to relieve the torque when manual torque is introduced into the bit holder or the screwdriver blade through the handle. The drive mechanism further includes a torque limiter for limiting the drive torque of the motor on the bit holder or the blade.

  • Patent number: 7886638
    Abstract: A pliers includes first and second pliers parts and an articulation that pivotably connects the pliers parts. The articulation is arranged on at least one of the pliers parts between its ends. First and second handle elements associated with the first and second pliers parts. The first pliers part is connected rotation-fast to the first handle element. The second pliers part is pivotably connected to the second handle element. A coupling element that is pivotably attached to the second handle element has a hinge point arranged on the second handle element spaced apart from the hinge point of the second pliers part on the second handle element. The coupling element is also pivotably attached to the first pliers part or to the first handle element. The hinge point of the coupling element is arranged on the first pliers part or on the first handle element spaced apart from the articulation that connects the pliers parts.

  • Patent number: 7080582
    Abstract: A screwdriver tool has a driving body and a tool shank mounted in the driving body so it can rotate about its axis. A device for transmitting a torque from the driving body to the tool shank interrupts the torque transmission if a predefined limiting torque is exceeded. In its longitudinal area accommodated in the driving body, the tool shaft has a clutch section featuring a non-circular cross section. At least one spring element adjoins the clutch section radially on the outside. The spring element is mounted in the driving body in a non-rotatable manner with respect to the axis of the tool shank and in a radially deflectable manner against its spring force.
