Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A hand-power tool includes at least one tool spindle and a drive unit configured to drive the tool spindle at a rotational speed greater than 10,000 min−1. The drive unit has a brushless electric motor.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A hand-held power tool, comprising: at least one tool spindle defining a first axis of rotation; and a drive unit connected in a gearless fashion to the at least one tool spindle and configured to drive the at least one tool spindle at a rotational speed higher than 10,000 rotations per minute, the drive unit including a brushless electric motor defining a second axis of rotation that is coaxial with the first axis of rotation. 2. The hand-held power tool as claimed in claim 1 , wherein, in at least one operating state, the drive unit takes up a direct voltage configured to supply the electric motor. 3. The hand-held power tool as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the drive unit has an electronic commutator configured to convert the direct voltage at least into one alternating voltage. 4. The hand-held power tool as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the commutator is configured to convert the direct voltage into an alternating voltage as a function of a rotational speed. 5. The hand-held power tool as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the electric motor has an internal rotor. 6. The hand-held power tool as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the drive unit is configured to brake a rotor of the electric motor. 7. The hand-held power tool as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the drive unit has a maximum power between 15 watts and 150 watts. 8. The hand-held power tool as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising a lithium-based accumulator configured to supply the drive unit with electrical energy. 9. The hand-held power tool as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising a hose coupling connecting the drive unit to the tool spindle, the hose coupling having a rubber-elastic structure.
