Patent attributes
A drill has a housing, a drivable drill spindle rotatably mounted in the housing, a chuck body coaxially connected and rotationally fixed to the drill spindle, a tightening sleeve rotatable on and relative to the chuck body, and jaws moveable relative to the chuck body by the tightening sleeve. A coupling between the housing and the tightening sleeve has a sleeve held on the housing so as not to rotate with the chuck body and movable relative to the chuck body chuck between a coupling position in which it connects the tightening sleeve to the spindle housing angularly in a friction-fit manner and a decoupling position into which it is urged by a decoupling spring when torque between the tightening sleeve and the coupling sleeve in the coupling position exceeds a predetermined value.
