  • Patent number: 9903655
    Abstract: Impact tool and method for a hammer device that includes impact tool housing and tubular piston structured and arranged for axial displacement in impact tool housing via pressure medium. Tubular piston has essentially radial pressure surfaces structured and arranged on opposite portions of tubular piston to be acted on with pressure medium. Grooves are formed in impact tool housing that are structured and arranged for a reversal of a direction of a pressure medium impingement on pressure surfaces and discharge or recirculation of medium. Grooves include a control recess formed in tubular piston and at least two control grooves for a shift of pressure medium impingement on pressure surfaces that are arranged axially offset in impact tool housing. A controller is structured and arranged to alternatively activate one of the at least two control grooves via connection channels.

  • Patent number: 9689616
    Abstract: A device for supplying a rinsing medium to a tool of a hammer drill and a hammer drill. The device includes at least one of a rotatable and axially displaceable drilling tool holder having at least one supply channel for the rinsing medium, a transfer part interacting with the drilling tool holder, a housing, a feeder structured and shaped essentially in an axially symmetrical manner, and a holding part with a rinsing medium inlet. The feeder and the holding part are arranged as a connected component, and friction bearings are arranged on both sides of the feeder and arranged toward the drilling tool holder. The holding part is structured to be radially displaceable within limits via bending with respect to at least one of the housing and a fixing ring connected to the housing, but positively fixed tangentially.
