Abstract

A hand-held power tool (10) includes a housing (11), and a drive (15) arranged in the housing (10), sensors (20) for acquiring measurement data, a control unit (50) for processing measurement data and for controlling power tool functions, and a remote data transmission device (30) for wireless, network-supported digital remote data transmission and having a wireless transmitting and receiving unit and a radio antenna (32) communicating with the control unit (50).

Claims

1. A hand-held power tool (10) comprising a housing (11);

a drive (15) located in the housing (11);

a plurality of sensors (20) for acquiring measurement data;

a control unit (50) for processing measurement data and for controlling power tool functions; and

a remote data transmission device (30) for wireless, network-supported digital remote data transmission and having a wireless transmitting and receiving unit communicating with the control unit (50), and a radio antenna (32).

2. A hand-held power tool according to claim 1, wherein the wireless transmitting and receiving unit is formed as a GSM module (31).

3. A hand-held power tool according to claim 2, further comprising a position determining device (40) for global positioning that communicates with the control unit (50).

4. A hand-held power tool according to claim 3, wherein the position determining device (40) has a separate antenna (42).

5. A hand-held power tool according to claim 3, wherein the position determining device (40) comprise a GPS module (41).

6. A hand-held power tool according to claim 4, wherein the radio antenna (32) and the antenna (42) are arranged in a handle area (12) of the housing (11).

7. A hand-held power tool according to claim 6, wherein the radio antenna (32) and the antenna (42) are arranged directly next to a housing wall (13) of the housing (11).

8. A hand-held power tool according to claim 3, wherein the GSM module (31) and the GPS module (41) are combined to form one constructional unit (34).

9. A hand-held power tool according to claim 1, wherein power tool data and the measurement data can be sent from the control unit (50) to an evaluation location (62) by the remote data transmission device (30) by means of SMS.
