Hand-Held Power Tool with a Fastening Region for a Safety Loop - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18442832 titled 'Hand-Held Power Tool with a Fastening Region for a Safety Loop

The abstract describes a hand-held power tool with a housing that includes a drive unit for actuating a tool holder, forming a handle for holding the tool. The housing has at least one fastening region for attaching a safety loop to prevent the tool from falling, with an optical and/or haptic marking element for identification.

  • The hand-held power tool has a housing with a drive unit for tool actuation.
  • The housing doubles as a handle for ease of use.
  • A fastening region on the housing allows for the attachment of a safety loop.
  • An optical and/or haptic marking element on the fastening region aids in identification.

Potential Applications: - Construction industry - Woodworking - Metalworking

Problems Solved: - Preventing hand-held power tools from falling and causing damage or injury - Ensuring secure attachment of safety loops for user protection

Benefits: - Increased safety for users - Ease of identification of fastening regions - Enhanced usability of hand-held power tools

Commercial Applications: Title: "Enhanced Safety Hand-Held Power Tools for Construction and Woodworking Industries" This technology can be marketed to construction companies, woodworking shops, and metalworking facilities looking to improve safety standards and efficiency in their operations.

Questions about the technology: 1. How does the optical and haptic marking element improve the usability of the hand-held power tool? 2. What are the specific safety benefits of using a safety loop with this tool?


Original Abstract Submitted

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.
