Abstract: A demolition hammer is provided that may include a housing having a distal end, a power cell disposed in the housing, an end plate attached to the distal end of the housing, and a damper disposed in the housing between the power cell and the end plate, wherein the damper is spaced apart from the power cell by a gap. The damper may also support and align a plurality of wear plates interposed between the housing and power cell. The damper may have generally rectangular first portion having a planar upper surface and a planar lower surface generally parallel to the upper surface and a generally circular second portion extending from the lower surface, wherein the first portion and the section portion define a central through bore.

Abstract: A rock claw is provided for a demolition hammer. The rock claw may be a separate component attachable to the external surface of the hammer housing. The rock claw may include a first portion with a first distal end and a first proximal end and a second portion with a second distal end and a second proximal end. The first proximal end is joined to the second proximal end to form an elbow and the second distal end having a first leg spaced apart from a second leg.

Abstract: A demolition hammer may include a housing having a distal end and a proximal end, a power cell disposed in the housing along a longitudinal axis and a side buffer positioned to support the power cell in the housing, wherein the housing forms a first retaining structure that prevents axial movement of the side buffer toward the proximal end. The housing may also form a second retaining structure that prevents inward radial movement of the side buffer and a third retaining structure that prevents outward radial movement of the side buffer.

Abstract: A demolition hammer is provided that includes a housing that is reversible and a plurality of interchangeable wear plates. The demolition hammer may include a housing a housing having a first wall and a second wall opposite the first wall, and a power cell disposed within the housing, the power cell having a front face, wherein the housing is reversible such that the housing can be used with the power cell in a first orientation in which the front face faces the first wall and a second orientation in which the front face faces the second wall.
