  • the shaft element 128 lies in a central region of the tool head 14. At least approximately, the rotation axis 130 forms a central axis of the tool head 14.
  • the suction channel 42 opens via the interior 116 of the third tube element 114 into a corresponding central region 132 of the tool head.
  • a corresponding suction chamber surrounds the shaft device 84 in its connection to the tool head 14 and is arranged in the central region 132.
  • the suction channel 42 intersects with the channel 126, the sheet member 94. This ensures, if as a tool holder 16, for example, a corner grinder is used, a free rotation.
  • a housing 134 with a lower shell 136 and an upper shell 138 is arranged on the housing 134.
  • the second tube member 86 is fixed.
  • the third tube member 114 is fixed to the housing 134.
  • the first tube element 18 is fixed to the housing 134.
  • the connection region 122 lies within this housing 134.
  • the connection of the channel 126 with the first tube element 18 and the third tube element 114 likewise takes place within the housing 134.
  • a corresponding tool holding device 16 may comprise a reduction gear.
  • Corresponding tool holding devices are in the EP 1 719 581 A1 described, to which reference is expressly made.
  • a corresponding Tool holding device comprises in particular a fixing device for releasably fixing to the tool head 14 and a shaft for driving a held by the tool holder 16 tool which is rotatably coupled to the shaft member 128 of the tool head 14.
  • a corresponding tool holding device can have a rotation axis coaxial to the rotation axis 130 or a parallel spaced rotation axis.
  • the tool holding device has a triangular outer contour.
  • Such a tool holding device is used in particular for processing corners and the like. It is in this context in particular on the FIGS. 5 to 8 and the corresponding description in the EP 1 719 581 A1 directed.
  • the distance of the drive motor 50 to the tool head 14 in the extension direction 20 is fixed.
  • the length of the holding device 12 between the handle 32 and the tool head 14 can be adjusted via the displaceability of the rod element 24 in the first tube element 18.
  • the distance between the drive motor 50 and the tool head 14 in the direction of extent 20 is in particular greater than 0.3 m and preferably greater than 0.5 m. This allows fatigue-free wall and ceiling work as well as tillage for an operator.
  • the drive motor 50 is, as in FIG. 6 shown schematically, floating in the housing device 44 mounted on the first housing portion 58.
  • a plurality of elastic elements 140 is provided.
  • the elastic elements are, for example, rubber buffers.
  • the drive motor 50 is supported on the lower shell 46 and the upper shell 48 via the elastic elements 140. This results in a vibration damping.
  • the transmission device 52 is also floatingly mounted on the housing device 44 in the second housing region 60 and thereby decoupled from the drive motor 50 mounted. These are also elastic elements 140th provided (for example rubber buffer). About this, the transmission device 52 is supported on the lower shell 46 and upper shell 48.
  • the fan device 54 is preferably likewise mounted in a floating manner or connected to the transmission device 52 in such a way that it is mounted floating on the housing device 44 via this device.
  • the shaft 56 transmits the torque of the drive motor 50 to the transmission device 52. Thus, it causes a torque coupling of the transmission device 52 to the drive motor 50. About this coupling vibrations can be transmitted in principle.
  • FIG. 9 In a third embodiment ( FIG. 9 ) is provided as a shaft 56, a rigid shaft 142, which provides for a rigid coupling of the drive motor 50 and the transmission device 52.
  • the shaft 56 is not rigidly configured to provide further vibration isolation between the transmission 52 and the drive motor 50.
  • FIG. 7 The flexible shaft 144, which is non-rotatably connected to the rotor of the drive motor 50 and rotatably connected to an "input" of the transmission device 52 and a torque-effective coupling between a drive motor 50 and the Transmitter device 52 has, due to its flexible design, a certain transverse mobility transversely to a spacing direction 146 between drive motor 50 and transmission device 52. (The distance direction 146 is parallel to the extension direction 20.) As a result, the torque-effective coupling between the drive motor 50 and the transmission device 52 is non-rigid and there is an at least partial vibration isolation.
  • the shaft 56 is formed in several parts with at least two shaft elements, which are connected to an elastic coupling.
  • a shaft 148 is provided which has a first shaft element 150a, a second shaft element 150b and a third shaft element 150c.
  • the first shaft member 150a is operatively connected to the second shaft member 150b via a resilient coupling 152.
  • the second shaft member 150b is connected to the third shaft member 150c via a second elastic coupling 154.
  • the first clutch 152 and the second clutch 154 may be formed differently.
  • the first clutch 152 and the second clutch 154 are rubber members.
  • the clutches can also be designed as torsional clutches. It is also possible, for example, that the couplings are designed as universal joints (cardan joints).
  • the inventive solution of the separation of the drive motor 50 and gear device 52 and their respective separate elastic mounting on a housing means 44 (wherein the drive motor 50 and the transmission device 52 may be mounted floating in the same housing or may be mounted in different housings) and the coupling via a shaft 56 of the transmission device 52 to the drive motor 50 causes increased vibration damping and thus improved operability by an operator.
  • the transmission of vibration and noise to the housing device 44 is reduced.
  • a region of the housing device 44, in which the shaft 56 is arranged, need not necessarily be designed as a handle, but it may, for example, a housing without opening 74 (Finger barntauch Scheme 72) may be provided.
  • the cleaning / grinding machine 10 functions as follows:
  • the appropriate tool holder 16 is fixed to the tool head 14 with tools.
  • the rotor of the drive motor 50 is rotated, which in turn causes rotation of the shaft 56.
  • the shaft device 84 is rotated, wherein in the formation of the transmission device 52 as a reduction gear, the shaft device 84 is rotated at a lower speed than the shaft 56th
  • the transmission device 52 drives the fan 62. Cooling air flows through the channel 64 and flows around the drive motor 50 for its cooling.
  • the handle 68 is heated.
  • An essential part of the weight of the cleaning / grinding machine 10 lies in the combination of drive motor 50 and gear mechanism 52. These are spaced from each other, wherein the handle 68 between the drive motor 50 and the transmission device 52 is located. As a result, the cleaning / grinding machine 10 can move over the handle 68 at or near its center of gravity being held. This causes a fatigue-free work. Holding on the handle 32 has essentially only a support function.
  • the various holding positions on the handle 32, the handle 68 and the outer periphery 92 of the second tube member 86 are in line. This provides a variety of different grip positions to a user.
  • the heaviest part of the cleaning / grinding machine 10, namely the drive motor 50, is when a user grips the handle 32 with one hand and the handle 68 with his other hand, between the hands.
  • the suction on the tool head 14 takes place centrally.
  • the suction channel 42 and the shaft device 84 run parallel to one another in a partial region (on the first tube element 18 and the second tube element 86).
  • the suction channel 42 crosses over the sheet element 94.
  • the central suction allows free rotation of the tool holder 16 or of a part of the tool holder 16 on the tool head 14. This allows a high Eckenzugnature for example by means of a tool, which on a tool holder according to FIG. 8 of the EP 1 719 581 A1 is held.
  • the drive motor 50 and the transmission device 52 are mounted floating in the housing device 44 separately from each other. As a result, there is a vibration decoupling of the drive motor 50 and the transmission device 52. There is a lower vibration transmission and noise transmission to the housing device 44th
  • the drive motor 50 and the gear device 52 are connected via the shaft 56, which is advantageously non-rigid, for example, by forming the shaft as a flexible shaft 144 or as a shaft having a plurality of shaft elements, with adjacent shaft elements having an elastic coupling are coupled.
  • the transmission device 52 may be adapted to a corresponding application.
  • the transmission device 52 can enable a reduced rotation, for example, of a shaft element to which a tool is to be coupled, or an eccentric movement. Different speeds can be adjustable.
  • the corresponding electric hand tool may for example be a drill, a hand-held grinding machine such as an orbital sander or the like, an angle grinder, etc.
  • the drive motor 50, the shaft 56 and the transmission device 52 are arranged in series.
  • the drive motor 50 is closest to the first end 38. From the drive motor 50, the shaft 56 leads to the transmission device 52. From there, the shaft device 84 leads to the tool head 14.
