A hand-held power tool includes a housing, in which at least one drive unit configured to drive a tool holder is arranged. The tool holder is designed to hold an insertable tool. The hand-held power tool includes an alignment apparatus having a control unit and at least one luminous element arranged on the housing. The alignment apparatus is designed to determine, in real time, during operation of the hand-held power tool, a current deviation of a selectable machining angle, which is selected via the control unit and which is formed between the insertable tool inserted in the tool holder and a workpiece surface that is to be machined, from an actual inclination angle between the insertable tool inserted in the tool holder and the workpiece surface to be machined, and to visualize said deviation using the at least one luminous element.

Hand-held power tool having an alignment apparatus

A hand-held power tool, in particular an impact drill, is disclosed. The hand-held power tool includes a housing in which a drive unit for driving an output spindle is arranged. A catch mechanism is associated with the drive unit. The catch mechanism has a first crown disk which is connected to the output spindle for conjoint rotation, and a second crown disk which is arranged in the housing for conjoint rotation. In a first position, the first and second crown disks contact each other via associated catch geometries. In a second position, the second crown disk is arranged spaced apart from the first crown disk along a rotation axis of the output spindle. An annular friction element is arranged without friction in the first position, and generates a specified frictional force between the first and second crown disk in the second position.

Hand-held power tool comprising a catch mechanism

A portable power tool has a drive unit for rotationally driving a tool receptacle about an axis of rotation, the drive unit having at least one drive motor and a shiftable transmission, which is arranged in a transmission housing with an at least partially sleeve-like clutch housing and a transmission cover fastened thereto. The tool includes a shifting element for shifting the shiftable transmission between at least two different gears, and a locking sleeve for locking the shifting element in at least a first and a second shifting position is arranged in the clutch housing. The shiftable transmission forms, at least in the first shifting position, a cross-sectional plane perpendicular to the axis of rotation in which the locking sleeve is arranged at least regionally between the transmission cover and the shifting element and the shifting element is arranged at least regionally between the locking sleeve and the clutch housing.
