Abstract

A carrying arrangement for a hand-guided power tool has a carrying element to be guided across a shoulder of an operator and a shoulder support arranged slidably in a longitudinal direction on the carrying element. A friction-reducing element for reducing friction between the carrying element and the shoulder support is provided. The shoulder support has a shoulder section and a lateral support section connected to the shoulder section. The carrying element is arranged on the shoulder section and the lateral support section rests against a side of the operator. In this way, excellent force distribution during operation is ensured.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A carrying arrangement for a hand-guided power tool, the carrying arrangement comprising: 
 a carrying element to be guided across a shoulder of an operator;    a shoulder support arranged slidably in a longitudinal direction on the carrying element;    a friction-reducing element for reducing friction between the carrying element and the shoulder support.    
   
   
       2 . The carrying arrangement according to  claim 1 , wherein the friction-reducing element is a slideway provided on the shoulder support.  
   
   
       3 . The carrying arrangement according to  claim 2 , further comprising a flexible sliding plate that is provided with the slideway, wherein in operation the carrying element is resting on the sliding plate.  
   
   
       4 . The carrying arrangement according to  claim 3 , wherein the sliding plate is a comprised of plastic material.  
   
   
       5 . The carrying arrangement according to  claim 1 , wherein the shoulder support has at least one loop and the carrying element is passed through the at least one loop.  
   
   
       6 . The carrying arrangement according to  claim 1 , wherein the shoulder support has a passage and the carrying element is passed through the passage.  
   
   
       7 . The carrying arrangement according to  claim 6 , wherein the passage is a tube.  
   
   
       8 . The carrying arrangement according to  claim 1 , wherein the carrying element has free ends each provided with a fastening element for attaching the carrying element to a power tool.  
   
   
       9 . The carrying arrangement according to  claim 1 , wherein the carrying element has a first section, a second section, and a releasable buckle connecting the first and second sections, wherein the shoulder support is arranged on the first section.  
   
   
       10 . The carrying arrangement according to  claim 1 , further comprising an adjusting device for adjusting a length of the carrying element.  
   
   
       11 . The carrying arrangement according to  claim 1 , wherein the shoulder support is a shoulder pad.  
   
   
       12 . A carrying arrangement for a hand-guided power tool, the carrying arrangement comprising: 
 a carrying element to be guided across a shoulder of an operator;    a shoulder support arranged slidably in a longitudinal direction on the carrying element;    wherein the shoulder support has a shoulder section and a lateral support section connected to the shoulder section;    wherein the carrying element is arranged on the shoulder section;    wherein the lateral support section is adapted to rest against a side of an operator.    
   
   
       13 . The carrying arrangement according to  claim 12 , further comprising a friction-reducing element for reducing friction between the carrying element and the shoulder support.  
   
   
       14 . The carrying arrangement according to  claim 12 , wherein the friction-reducing element is a slideway provided on the shoulder support.  
   
   
       15 . The carrying arrangement according to  claim 14 , further comprising a flexible sliding plate that is provided with the slideway, wherein in operation the carrying element is resting on the sliding plate.  
   
   
       16 . The carrying arrangement according to  claim 15 , wherein the sliding plate is a comprised of plastic material.  
   
   
       17 . The carrying arrangement according to  claim 12 , wherein the lateral support section is comprised at least partially of a mesh material.  
   
   
       18 . The carrying arrangement according to  claim 12 , wherein the lateral support section and the shoulder section are connected to one another in an area of the shoulder section that is to be positioned on a chest part of an operator and in an area of the shoulder section that is to be positioned on a back of the operator, wherein the lateral support section and the shoulder section form an arm opening for an arm of the operator.  
   
   
       19 . The carrying arrangement according to  claim 12 , wherein the lateral support section has a lower edge and the shoulder section has a lower edge, wherein the lower edge of the lateral support section is displaced in a direction toward a free end of the carrying element.  
   
   
       20 . The carrying arrangement according to  claim 12 , wherein the shoulder support has at least one loop and the carrying element is passed through the at least one loop.  
   
   
       21 . The carrying arrangement according to  claim 12 , wherein the shoulder support has a passage and the carrying element is passed through the passage.  
   
   
       22 . The carrying arrangement according to  claim 21 , wherein the passage is a tube.  
   
   
       23 . The carrying arrangement according to  claim 12 , wherein the carrying element has free ends each provided with a fastening element for attaching the carrying element to a power tool.  
   
   
       24 . The carrying arrangement according to  claim 12 , wherein the carrying element has a first section, a second section, and a releasable buckle connecting the first and second sections, wherein the shoulder support is arranged on the first section.  
   
   
       25 . The carrying arrangement according to  claim 12 , further comprising an adjusting device for adjusting a length of the carrying element.
