Abstract

The invention refers to a double-sided polishing or sanding member (24) for releasable attachment to a hand-guided power tool (2). The polishing or sanding member (24) has an essentially disc-shaped form with an areal extension (26). A reinforcement plate (28) is located inside the polishing or sanding member (24) in the areal extension (26). The reinforcement plate (28) has a central attachment portion (30) for releasable attachment of the polishing or sanding member (24) to the power tool (2). It is suggested that the central attachment portion (30) comprises at least one magnetic element (32) adapted for interaction with at least one respective magnetic element (34) directly or indirectly attached to a tool shaft (14) of the power tool (2) in order to hold and secure the polishing or sanding member (24) in respect to the tool shaft (14).

First claim

2 . Double-sided polishing or sanding member ( 24 ) according to claim 1 , wherein the double-sided polishing or sanding member ( 24 ) comprises two layers ( 48 ) of polishing or sanding material, each layer ( 48 ) extending parallel to the areal extension ( 26 ) of the reinforcement plate ( 28 ), one layer ( 48 ) attached to each side of the reinforcement plate ( 28 ), and an external surface opposite to the reinforcement plate ( 28 ) of each layer ( 48 ) forming a respective working surface ( 40 ) of the double-sided polishing or sanding member ( 24 ), with which a surface of a workpiece can be polished or sanded.

3 . Double-sided polishing or sanding member ( 24 ) according to claim 2 , wherein the working surfaces ( 40 ) of the two layers ( 48 ) in the axial direction extend beyond the central attachment portion ( 30 ) of the reinforcement plate ( 28 ) on respective sides of the double-sided polishing or sanding member ( 24 ).

4 . Double-sided polishing or sanding member ( 24 ) according to claim 2 , wherein the two layers ( 48 ) of polishing or sanding material are either fixedly attached to the reinforcement plate ( 28 ), including by means of gluing, welding, co-moulding, or are releasably attached to the reinforcement plate ( 28 ), including by means of a hook-and-loop-connection or an adhesive connection.

5 . Double-sided polishing or sanding member ( 24 ) according to claim 1 , wherein the central attachment portion ( 30 ) of the reinforcement plate ( 28 ) comprises a respective recess ( 36 ) on each side of the double-sided polishing or sanding member ( 24 ), respective the recesses ( 36 ) having a not rotation-symmetric internal circumferential form in a plane extending parallel to the areal extension ( 26 ), the respective recesses ( 36 ) each being further adapted to receive a respective protrusion ( 38 ) directly or indirectly attached to the tool shaft ( 14 ) in a torque-proof manner and having a not rotation-symmetric external circumferential form corresponding to the not rotation-symmetric internal circumferential form of the respective recesses ( 36 ), whereby the central attachment portion ( 30 ) is adapted to receive a torque from the tool shaft ( 14 ) and to transmit the torque to the double-sided polishing or sanding member ( 24 ) during operation of the hand-guided power tool ( 2 ).

6 . Single-sided polishing or sanding member ( 24 ) for releasable attachment to a hand-guided power tool ( 2 ), the single-sided polishing or sanding member ( 24 ) having an essentially disc-shaped form with an areal extension ( 26 ), and comprising a reinforcement plate ( 28 ) extending in the areal extension ( 26 ), to which a layer ( 48 ) of polishing or sanding material is attached and which comprises a central attachment portion ( 30 ) for releasable attachment of one side of the single-sided polishing or sanding member ( 24 ) to a tool shaft ( 14 ) of the hand-guided power tool ( 2 ), characterized in that
the central attachment portion ( 30 ) of the reinforcement plate ( 28 ) comprises at least one magnetic element ( 32 ) adapted for interaction with at least one respective magnetic element ( 34 ) directly or indirectly attached to the tool shaft ( 14 ) of the hand-guided power tool ( 2 ), in order to hold and secure the single-sided polishing or sanding member ( 24 ) in respect to the tool shaft ( 14 ) in an axial direction extending parallel to a rotational axis ( 46 ) of the single-sided polishing or sanding member ( 24 ).

7 . Single-sided polishing or sanding member ( 24 ) according to claim 6 , wherein the central attachment portion ( 30 ) of the reinforcement plate ( 28 ) comprises a recess ( 36 ) on one side of the single-sided polishing or sanding member ( 24 ), the recess ( 36 ) having a not rotation-symmetric internal circumferential form in a plane extending parallel to the areal extension ( 26 ), the recess ( 36 ) further being adapted to receive a protrusion ( 38 ) directly or indirectly attached to the tool shaft ( 14 ) in a torque-proof manner and having a not rotation-symmetric external circumferential form corresponding to the not rotation-symmetric internal circumferential form of the recess ( 36 ), whereby the central attachment portion ( 30 ) is adapted to receive a torque from the tool shaft ( 14 ) and to transmit the torque to the single-sided polishing or sanding member ( 24 ) during operation of the hand-guided power tool ( 2 ).

8 . Single-sided polishing or sanding member ( 24 ) according to claim 6 , wherein the layer ( 48 ) of polishing or sanding material extends parallel to the areal extension ( 26 ) of the single-sided polishing or sanding member ( 24 ) and is fixedly attached to the reinforcement plate ( 28 ) on a side opposite to the central attachment portion ( 30 ), including by means of gluing, welding or co-moulding.
