Abstract
A hand-held tool for use as a powered drill or screw driver, has a chuck for holding a tool bit, and the chuck is replaceable without employing another tool. A conically shaped shaft section on a rotary spindle fits into a conically shaped bore in a socket section of a part of the chuck. The shaft section and chuck part are secured together by clamping members held in place by a spring. The interconnection affords concentricity and true runout. The rotary spindle is provided with a recess or groove in its outer surface. The groove has an inclined flank closer to the front end of the spindle and the clamping members is biased by the spring against the flank. The spring is displaceable by a gripping sleeve between the biasing position and a released position.
