Abstract

A housing device for a hand-held power tool includes at least one receiving interface configured to receive a battery unit. The at least one receiving interface is further configured to receive a mains power connection unit as an alternative to the battery unit.

Claims

1. A housing device for a hand-held power tool, comprising:

at least one receiving interface configured to separably couple to a battery unit and to receive a mains power connection unit as an alternative to the battery unit, the at least one receiving interface including at least one fastening member configured to inseparably couple to the mains power connection unit.

2. The housing device according to claim 1, wherein the at least one fastening member is configured to inseparably couple to the mains power connection unit prior to an initial operation of the hand-held power tool.

3. The housing device according to claim 1, further comprising at least one electric-motor bearing unit configured to mount at least two electric motors that each have different designs.

4. The housing device according to claim 3, wherein the at least one electric-motor bearing unit includes at least one electric-motor bearing adapter configured to alter a geometry of an electric motor.

5. The housing device according to claim 1, further comprising at least one operating-switch bearing unit configured to mount at least two operating switches that each have a different design.

6. The housing device according to claim 1, further comprising at least one rotational-direction switch bearing unit configured to mount at least two rotational-direction switches that each have a different design.

7. A hand-held power tool, comprising:

a housing device that includes;

at least one receiving interface configured to receive a battery unit and to receive a mains power connection unit as an alternative to the battery unit; and

at least one electric-motor bearing unit configured to mount at least two electric motors that each have different designs.

8. A system, comprising:

a hand-held power tool, including;

a housing device having;

at least one receiving interface configured to receive a battery unit and to receive a mains power connection unit as an alternative to the battery unit; and

at least one operating-switch bearing unit configured to mount at least two operating switches that each have a different design.

9. The system according to claim 8, wherein the battery unit is separably coupled to the at least one receiving interface of the housing device of the power tool.

10. The system according to claim 8, wherein the mains power connection unit is inseparably coupled to the at least one receiving interface of the housing device of the power tool.

11. The system according to claim 10, wherein the mains power connection unit includes a motor-control electronics unit configured to effect electrical control of an electric motor.
