Abstract

A hand-held power tool includes a housing in which a drive unit for actuating a tool holder is arranged. The housing forms a handle for holding the hand-held power tool. At least one fastening region is associated with the housing to which a safety loop for securing the hand-held power tool against falling can be fastened. The at least one fastening region has an optical and/or haptic marking element for marking the at least one fastening region.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A hand-held power tool comprising:
a housing;
a tool holder; and
a drive unit arranged in the housing and configured to actuate the tool holder, wherein:
the housing is configured to form a handle for holding the hand-held power tool,
the housing includes at least one fastening region configured to receive a safety loop for securing the hand-held power tool against falling,
the at least one fastening region has a marking element configured as an optical marking element, a haptic marking element, or an optical and haptic marking element for marking the at least one fastening region,
the marking element is enclosed by a groove, and
a region haptically different from a surrounding region of the groove formed by the housing is formed within the groove.

2. The hand-held power tool according to claim 1 , wherein the optical and/or haptic marking element includes a depression.

3. The hand-held power tool according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one fastening region is arranged on the handle.

4. The hand-held power tool according to claim 3 , wherein the marking element is arranged on the handle in at least one of the following positions:
on a side arranged facing the tool holder,
on a side arranged facing away from the tool holder, and
on a side surface aligned perpendicularly to a longitudinal direction of the tool holder.

5. The hand-held power tool according to claim 3 , wherein the at least one fastening region is arranged in a connecting region between the handle and a receiving region for a battery pack connected to the handle.

6. The hand-held power tool according to claim 3 , wherein the handle is tapered in the at least one fastening region.

7. The hand-held power tool according to claim 3 , wherein:
the handle includes a main holding section configured to be gripped by a user, and
the at least one fastening region is spaced apart from the main holding section.

8. The hand-held power tool according to claim 3 , wherein the handle is arranged angled on the housing.

9. The hand-held power tool according to claim 1 , wherein the hand-held power tool is designed as a hammer drill.

10. A system, comprising:
a hand-held power tool; and
an auxiliary handle having at least one fastening region that has a marking element configured as an optical marking element, a haptic marking element, or an optical and haptic marking element which is configured to mark the at least one fastening region,
wherein:
the at least one fastening region is configured for fastening a safety loop for securing the hand-held power tool against falling,
the marking element is enclosed by a groove, and
a region haptically different from a surrounding region of the groove formed by the housing is formed within the groove.
