Abstract
A power tool is disclosed. The power tool has a striker, which is guided along an axis in a guide tube. A pneumatic chamber has a volume which varies with a movement of the striker. The pneumatic chamber is closed by the striker, the guide tube and a valve device. The valve device has in a flow channel a sealing element that is moveable between two positions in a bearing along the axis. The flow channel has a first cross-sectional area in a first of the two positions of the sealing element adjacent to a first mating surface of the bearing, and the flow channel has a second cross-sectional area in a second of the two positions of the sealing element adjacent to second mating surface of the bearing offset from the first mating surface along the axis. The second cross-sectional area is greater than the first cross-sectional area.
