A power tool handle has a shaft with a fastening end securing the handle on the power tool and with a free end. The handle has an outer side for supporting a palm of a hand. First and second operating elements are pivotably supported at the shaft about first and second pivot axes, respectively. The first operating element controls a power tool drive motor. In non-actuated position, the second operating element prevents a control action of the first operating element and has an actuating section projecting from the shaft and having a first and a second end. The first end is closer to the fastening end of the shaft than the second end. The second end is closer to the free end of the shaft. The second pivot axis is closer to the first end than to the second end. A trimmer is provided with such a handle.

Handle for a hand-guided power tool and trimmer

A trimmer line spool has first and second spool chambers for a trimmer line. First and second holder pairs are provided. The first holder pair has first and second trimmer line holders associated with the first spool chamber and the second spool chamber, respectively. The second holder pair has first and second trimmer line holders associated with the first spool chamber and the second spool chamber, respectively. The trimmer line holders of the first holder pair each have a first opening for the trimmer line. The trimmer line holders of the second holder pair each have a second opening for the trimmer line. A diameter of the first openings is larger than a diameter of the second openings. The first openings are positioned at an angle of 150° to 210° to each other. The second openings are positioned at an angle of 150° to 210° to each other.

A handle for a hand-guided power tool has a shaft with a fastening end and a free end. The fastening end is provided to secure the handle on the power tool. The handle has an outer side that is designed to at least partially support a palm of a hand of a user. An inner side is positioned opposite the outer side at the handle. A thumb support surface is provided at the inner side. The thumb support surface, viewed in a side view of the handle perpendicular to the inner side, is positioned at an angle of at least 20° and at most 70° in relation to a longitudinal axis of the handle at every point of the thumb support surface. A power tool such as a trimmer has a handle bar provided with a handle with such a thumb support surface.

A trimmer has a guide tube and a tool unit connected to an end of the guide tube. A handlebar is secured to the guide tube and has handles connected to a respective end of the bar of the handlebar. Each handle has a shaft with a fastening end and a free end. The fastening end is provided to secure the handle on the power tool. The handles each have a front side facing the tool unit of the guide tube end and an oppositely positioned rear side. The handles each have an inner side and an outer side, wherein the inner sides face each other and wherein the outer sides face away from each other. At least one of the handles is provided with a heel of hand support designed as an elevation extending at the inner side and at the rear side of the shaft.

A carrying device for carrying a hand-guided power tool by a user has a shoulder strap and a lateral leg plate with a connecting unit for coupling a power tool to the carrying device. A support strap is connected with one end to the shoulder strap and the leg plate is slidably arranged at the support strap to slide along the support strap in a longitudinal direction thereof. A fixation device is arranged between support strap and leg plate and has a release position and a blocking position. In the release position, the leg plate is slidable along the support strap; in the blocking position, the leg plate is non-slidably secured on the support strap. The blocking position is correlated with a first working mode of the power tool; the release position is correlated with a second working mode of the power tool.
