A power tool to which an auxiliary handle is attachable includes a housing, a nut held on a side surface of the housing to be screwed with the auxiliary handle, and an elastic member between the housing and the nut.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A power tool to which an auxiliary handle is attachable, the power tool comprising: a housing having a mount hole located on a side surface of the housing; a nut held in the mount hole to be screwed with the auxiliary handle; an elastic member between the housing and the nut; and a mount to be screwed with the mount hole to mount the nut and the elastic member in the mount hole, wherein the elastic member is externally mounted on the nut, and the nut is held by the mount in a nonrotatable manner. 2. The power tool according to claim 1 , further comprising: a drop stopper mounted on the housing to prevent the mount from dropping. 3. The power tool according to claim 2 , wherein the housing includes, in a front portion, a gear housing with a spindle protruding downward, and the spindle has a lower end to which a tip tool is attachable, and the nut is located on a side surface of the gear housing. 4. The power tool according to claim 1 , wherein the nut is coupled to be rotatable about a pivot in the housing. 5. The power tool according to claim 4 , wherein a clearance is between the nut and the pivot. 6. The power tool according to claim 5 , further comprising: a second elastic member located opposite to the elastic member across the nut in a rotation direction of the nut. 7. The power tool according to claim 4 , wherein the housing includes, in a front portion, a gear housing with a spindle protruding downward, and the spindle has a lower end to which a tip tool is attachable, and the nut is located on a side surface of the gear housing. 8. The power tool according to claim 1 , wherein the housing includes, in a front portion, a gear housing with a spindle protruding downward, and the spindle has a lower end to which a tip tool is attachable, and the nut is located on a side surface of the gear housing. 9. A power tool to which an auxiliary handle is attachable, the power tool comprising: a housing; a nut held on a side surface of the housing to be screwed with the auxiliary handle; and an elastic member between the housing and the nut; a second elastic member located opposite to the elastic member across the nut in a rotation direction of the nut, wherein the nut is coupled to be rotatable about a pivot in the housing, and the elastic member is between the nut and the housing.
