Abstract
A power tool is disclosed. The power tool includes a striker, a guide tube in which the striker is guided along an axis, and a pneumatic chamber, which is closed by the striker, the guide tube and a valve device actuated by its own medium. A volume of the pneumatic chamber changes in the case of a movement of the striker along the axis. The valve device has a swivelable sealing element between the striker and the guide tube. The swivelable sealing element is swiveled into a retracted position when the striker moves in the impact direction and is swiveled into an extended position when the striker moves against the impact direction. In the retracted position, the sealing element has a first inflow surface. In the extended position, the sealing element has a second inflow surface. The second inflow surface is larger than the first inflow surface.
