Abstract
A hammer drill includes, in a cylinder accommodated in a housing, a piston configured to advance and retract and an impact element to operate together with the piston with an air chamber interposed therebetween, and a bit mounted in a front part of a tool main body so that an impact operation can be transmitted to the bit by advancing and retracting movement of the impact element. Vent holes are provided in the cylinder, and configured to discharge air in the air chamber to outside of the cylinder, and to introduce the air outside the cylinder into the air chamber by the movement of the piston. One of the vent holes is located at a center of an upper half of a periphery of the cylinder and the other vent hole is located in a lower half of the periphery of the cylinder.
