  • Publication number: 20100213676
    Abstract: The invention relates to a tool system which includes an exchangeable rotary tool for electric hand-held machine tools, preferably with a drill and/or hammer function, in particular for an electric hammer drill, and an electric drill, in particular a percussion drill. The tool system also includes at least two tool holders that are embodied as tool fittings that are associated with the hand-held machine tools and are different types. The rotary tool has an insertable shaft to be accommodated in the respective tool holder of the hand-held machine tools, the shaft having at least two slaving ribs that are diametrically opposed and that extend along the shaft for rotational engagement. The tool fitting of a first type is embodied as a positive fit fitting and another tool fitting of the second type as a multi-jaw clamping chuck. The slaving ribs have a width and a height such that, in the clamped state, they are at a lateral distance from the clamping jaws of the multi jaw clamping chuck.
