Die Schnitttiefenbegrenzungsvorrichtung 10 fĆ¼r die tragbare Werkzeugmaschine 12 ist zu einer Einstellung einer Begrenzung einer Schnitttiefe auf einer dem WerkzeugmaschinengehƤuse 38 zugewandten Seite der Schutzeinheit 46 an der Schutzeinheit 46 angeordnet. Es ist jedoch auch denkbar, dass die Schnitttiefenbegrenzungsvorrichtung 10 an einer anderen, einem Fachmann als sinnvoll erscheinenden Position an der Schutzeinheit 46 oder einem anderen Bauteil der tragbaren Werkzeugmaschine 12 angeordnet ist. Die Schnitttiefenbegrenzungsvorrichtung 10 umfasst zumindest eine SchnitttiefenfĆ¼hrungseinheit 14 und zumindest eine Anschlageinheit 16, die zumindest ein beweglich gelagertes Anschlagelement 18 und zumindest ein Fixierelement 20 zu einer Fixierung des Anschlagelements 18 in zumindest einer Position aufweist. Hierbei ist das Anschlagelement 18 zu einer Einstellung einer Begrenzung einer Schnitttiefe des Bearbeitungswerkzeugs 42 entlang eines FĆ¼hrungselements 28 der SchnitttiefenfĆ¼hrungseinheit 14 beweglich gelagert.The cutting depth limiting device 10 for the portable power tool 12 is arranged to set a limitation of a cutting depth on a side facing the machine tool housing 38 side of the protection unit 46 on the protection unit 46. However, it is also conceivable that the cutting depth limiting device 10 is arranged at another, to a skilled person appear appropriate position on the protection unit 46 or other component of the portable power tool 12. The cutting depth limiting device 10 comprises at least one cutting depth guide unit 14 and at least one stop unit 16 which has at least one movably mounted stop element 18 and at least one fixing element 20 for fixing the stop element 18 in at least one position. In this case, the stop element 18 is movably mounted for setting a limitation of a cutting depth of the machining tool 42 along a guide element 28 of the cutting depth guide unit 14.

Die Anschlageinheit 16 umfasst zu einer Bewegung des Anschlagelements 18 zumindest ein Bedienelement 32, das verschiebbar in einer FĆ¼hrungsausnehmung 34 des FĆ¼hrungselements 28 der SchnitttiefenfĆ¼hrungseinheit 14 gelagert ist. Das Anschlagelement 18 ist schwenkbar um eine Bewegungsachse 36 des Anschlagelements 18 an dem beweglich am FĆ¼hrungselement 28 der SchnitttiefenfĆ¼hrungseinheit 14 gelagerten Bedienelement 32 der Anschlageinheit 16 gelagert. Die FĆ¼hrungsausnehmung 34 ist in einer zumindest im Wesentlichen senkrecht zur Bewegungsachse 36 des Anschlagelements 18 verlaufenden Ebene angeordnet. Hierbei weist die FĆ¼hrungsausnehmung 34, betrachtet entlang einer Gesamterstreckung der FĆ¼hrungsausnehmung 34, einen bogenfƶrmigen Verlauf auf. Es ist jedoch auch denkbar, dass die FĆ¼hrungsausnehmung 34 an einer anderen, einem Fachmann als sinnvoll erscheinenden Position am FĆ¼hrungselement 28 angeordnet ist, wie beispielsweise an einer dem WerkzeugmaschinengehƤuse 38 abgewandten Seite des FĆ¼hrungselements 28 usw. Zudem ist es ebenfalls denkbar, dass die FĆ¼hrungsausnehmung 34 einen anderen, einem Fachmann als sinnvoll erscheinenden Verlauf aufweist, wie beispielsweise einen geradlinigen Verlauf usw.The stop unit 16 comprises, for a movement of the stop element 18, at least one operating element 32 which is displaceably mounted in a guide recess 34 of the guide element 28 of the cutting depth guide unit 14. The stop element 18 is mounted pivotably about a movement axis 36 of the stop element 18 on the operating element 32 of the stop unit 16 movably mounted on the guide element 28 of the cutting depth guide unit 14. The guide recess 34 is arranged in a plane extending at least substantially perpendicular to the movement axis 36 of the stop element 18. Here, the guide recess 34, viewed along an overall extension of the guide recess 34, an arcuate course. However, it is also conceivable for the guide recess 34 to be arranged on the guide element 28 at another position which would appear meaningful to a person skilled in the art, for example on a side of the guide element 28 facing away from the machine tool housing 38 etc. In addition, it is also conceivable for the guide recess 34 another, which appears appropriate to a person skilled in the course, such as a straight course, etc.

Des Weiteren umfasst das FĆ¼hrungselement 28 zumindest eine Rastbahn 24, die korrespondierend mit dem Fixierelement 20 ausgebildet ist. Hierbei ist die Rastbahn 24 als SƤgezahnrastbahn ausgebildet (Figuren 2 und 4). Das FĆ¼hrungselement 28 umfasst zudem zumindest eine weitere Rastbahn 26, die dazu vorgesehen ist, mit einem Vorpositionierungselement 22 der Anschlageinheit 16 zu einer Vorpositionierung des Anschlagelements 18 zusammenzuwirken(Figuren 2 und 4). Somit umfasst die SchnitttiefenfĆ¼hrungseinheit 14 zumindest ein FĆ¼hrungselement 28, das zumindest eine weitere Rastbahn 26 aufweist, mit der zumindest das Vorpositionierungselement 22 in zumindest einer Position zusammenwirkt. Das Vorpositionierungselement 22 ist hierbei am Anschlagelement 18 angeordnet. Die weitere Rastbahn 26 ist als Dreieckszahnrastbahn ausgebildet, wobei einzelne ZƤhne der weiteren Rastbahn 26 als gleichschenklige Dreiecke ausgebildet sind.Furthermore, the guide element 28 comprises at least one detent track 24, which is formed corresponding to the fixing element 20. Here is the Detent track 24 designed as SƤgezahnrastbahn ( Figures 2 and 4 ). The guide element 28 additionally comprises at least one further latching track 26, which is provided to cooperate with a pre-positioning element 22 of the stop unit 16 to pre-position the stop element 18 ( Figures 2 and 4 ). Thus, the cutting depth guide unit 14 comprises at least one guide element 28, which has at least one further latching track 26, with which at least the Vorpositionierungselement 22 cooperates in at least one position. The Vorpositionierungselement 22 is in this case arranged on the stop element 18. The further detent track 26 is formed as a triangular tooth detent track, wherein individual teeth of the further detent track 26 are formed as isosceles triangles.

Die Rastbahn 24 und die weitere Rastbahn 26 verlaufen auf einer dem WerkzeugmaschinengehƤuse 38 zugewandten Seite. Hierbei verlaufen die Rastbahn 24 und die weitere Rastbahn 26 zumindest im Wesentlichen parallel. Es ist jedoch auch denkbar, dass das FĆ¼hrungselement 28 lediglich eine einzige Rastbahn 24 aufweist, die dazu vorgesehen ist, mit dem Fixierelement 20 und dem Vorpositionierungselement 22 zusammenzuwirken. Auf einer der Rastbahn 24 und der weiteren Rastbahn 26 abgewandten Seite des FĆ¼hrungselements 28 weist das FĆ¼hrungselement 28 eine MaƟskala 54 auf, die zu einer Anzeige einer einer mittels der Anschlageinheit 16 eingestellten Begrenzung einer Schnitttiefe entsprechenden Abmessung einer Schnitttiefe mit einem an dem Bedienelement 32 angeordneten Zeigerelement 56 zusammenwirkt (Figur 5). Es ist jedoch auch denkbar, dass die Schnitttiefenbegrenzungsvorrichtung 10 eine digitale Anzeigeeinheit zu einer Anzeige einer einer eingestellten Begrenzung einer Schnitttiefe entsprechenden Abmessung einer Schnitttiefe umfasst.The detent track 24 and the further detent track 26 extend on a machine tool housing 38 side facing. Here, the latching track 24 and the further latching track 26 extend at least substantially parallel. However, it is also conceivable that the guide element 28 has only a single detent track 24, which is intended to cooperate with the fixing element 20 and the pre-positioning element 22. On one of the detent track 24 and the further detent track 26 side facing away from the guide member 28, the guide member 28 on a scale 54, which corresponds to a display of a set by means of the stop unit 16 limit a depth of cut dimension of a depth of cut with a arranged on the control element 32 pointer element 56 cooperates ( FIG. 5 ). However, it is also conceivable that the cutting depth limiting device 10 comprises a digital display unit for displaying a dimension of a cutting depth corresponding to a set limit of a cutting depth.

Das Fixierelement 20 ist als Feststellfortsatz ausgebildet. Zu einer Fixierung des Anschlagelements 18 in zumindest einer Position relativ zum FĆ¼hrungselement 28 ist das Fixierelement 20 auf einer dem FĆ¼hrungselement 28 zugewandten Seite des Anschlagelements 18 angeordnet. Hierbei ist das Fixierelement 20 einstĆ¼ckig mit dem Anschlagelement 18 ausgebildet. Das Fixierelement 20 weist, betrachtet in einer zumindest im Wesentlichen senkrecht zur Bewegungsachse 36 des Anschlagelements 18 verlaufenden Ebene, eine polygonale Form auf. In der zumindest im Wesentlichen senkrecht zur Bewegungsachse 36 des Anschlagelements 18 verlaufenden Ebene weist das Anschlagelement 18 eine SƤgezahnform auf. Das Fixierelement 20 ist korrespondierend mit der als SƤgezahnrastbahn ausgebildeten Rastbahn 24 ausgebildet. Insgesamt weist die Anschlageinheit 16 zumindest vier Fixierelemente 20 auf, die als FeststellfortsƤtze ausgebildet sind. Die vier Fixierelemente 20 weisen eine zueinander analoge Ausgestaltung auf und sind einstĆ¼ckig mit dem Anschlagelement 18 ausgebildet.The fixing element 20 is designed as a locking extension. In order to fix the stop element 18 in at least one position relative to the guide element 28, the fixing element 20 is arranged on a side of the stop element 18 facing the guide element 28. In this case, the fixing element 20 is formed integrally with the stop element 18. The fixing element 20 has, considered in a at least substantially perpendicular to the axis of movement 36 of the stop element 18 extending plane, a polygonal shape. In the plane extending at least substantially perpendicular to the movement axis 36 of the stop element 18, the stop element 18 has a sawtooth shape. The fixing element 20 is formed corresponding to the detent path 24 designed as a sawtooth detent track. Overall, the stop unit 16 has at least four fixing elements 20, which are designed as locking projections. The four fixing elements 20 have an analogous configuration to each other and are formed integrally with the stop element 18.

Die Anschlageinheit 16 umfasst ferner zumindest das Vorpositionierungselement 22, das das Fixierelement 20 in zumindest einem Zustand in Richtung einer Freigabeposition des Fixierelements 20 mit einer Kraft beaufschlagt. Das Vorpositionierungselement 22 bewegt in zumindest einem Zustand das Fixierelement 20 von zumindest der Rastbahn 24 des FĆ¼hrungselements 28 der SchnitttiefenfĆ¼hrungseinheit 14 weg. Hierbei bewegt das Vorpositionierungselement 22 das Fixierelement 20 zumindest in einem vom WerkzeugmaschinengehƤuse 38 der tragbaren Werkzeugmaschine 12 unbelasteten Zustand des Anschlagelements 18 weg von der Rastbahn 24 des FĆ¼hrungselements 28. Hierdurch wird das Fixierelement 20 in eine Freigabeposition des Fixierelements 20 Ć¼berfĆ¼hrt. In der Freigabeposition des Fixierelements 20 ist das Anschlagelement 18 zu einer Einstellung einer Schnitttiefe relativ zum FĆ¼hrungselement 28 durch eine Bewegung des Bedienelements 32 in der FĆ¼hrungsausnehmung 34 entlang der FĆ¼hrungsausnehmung 34 beweglich.The stop unit 16 further comprises at least the Vorpositionierungselement 22, which acts on the fixing element 20 in at least one state in the direction of a release position of the fixing element 20 with a force. The Vorpositionierungselement 22 moves in at least one state, the fixing element 20 of at least the latching track 24 of the guide member 28 of the cutting depth guide unit 14 away. In this case, the Vorpositionierungselement 22 moves the fixing member 20 at least in an unloaded from the machine tool housing 38 of the portable power tool 12 state of the stop member 18 away from the detent track 24 of the guide member 28. As a result, the fixing member 20 is transferred to a release position of the fixing element 20. In the release position of the fixing element 20, the stop element 18 is movable to adjust a depth of cut relative to the guide element 28 by a movement of the operating element 32 in the guide recess 34 along the guide recess 34.

Das Vorpositionierungselement 22 ist dazu vorgesehen, das Anschlagelement 18 gegen eine Bewegung entlang der Rastbahn 24 bzw. entlang der FĆ¼hrungsausnehmung 34 infolge einer auf das Anschlagelement 18 wirkenden Gewichtskraft zu sichern. Hierzu ist das Vorpositionierungselement 22 als federbelasteter Rastbolzen ausgebildet (Figuren 2 und 4). Somit ist das Vorpositionierungselement 22 relativ zum Anschlagelement 18 beweglich gelagert. Das Anschlagelement 18 weist zu einer Aufnahme des Vorpositionierungselements 22 zumindest eine Aufnahmeausnehmung 30 auf, in der das Vorpositionierungselement 22 zumindest teilweise angeordnet ist. Die Anschlageinheit 16 umfasst zu einer Belastung des Vorpositionierungselements 22 mit einer Kraft in Richtung des FĆ¼hrungselements 28 bzw. in Richtung der weiteren Rastbahn 26 zumindest ein Federelement 58 (Figuren 2 und 4). Das Federelement 58 ist als Schraubendruckfeder ausgebildet. Es ist jedoch auch denkbar, dass das Federelement 58 eine andere, einem Fachmann als sinnvoll erscheinende Ausgestaltung aufweist. Das Federelement 58 ist in der Aufnahmeausnehmung 30 des Anschlagelements 18 angeordnet. Zudem ist das Federelement 58 in einer Ausnehmung 60 des Vorpositionierungselements 22 angeordnet. Somit stĆ¼tzt sich das Federelement 58 mit einem Ende am Anschlagelement 18 ab und mit einem weiteren Ende stĆ¼tzt sich das Federelement 58 an dem Vorpositionierungselement 22 ab. Somit wird das Anschlagelement 18 durch eine Federkraft des Federelements 58 und durch das Zusammenwirken des Vorpositionierungselements 22 mit der weiteren Rastbahn 26 mit einer Kraft in eine vom FĆ¼hrungselement 28 abgewandte Richtung beaufschlagt. Hierdurch wird auch das Fixierelement 20 in zumindest einem Zustand in Richtung einer Freigabeposition des Fixierelements 20 mit einer Kraft beaufschlagt.The Vorpositionierungselement 22 is intended to secure the stop member 18 against movement along the latching track 24 and along the guide recess 34 due to a force acting on the stopper member 18 weight. For this purpose, the pre-positioning element 22 is designed as a spring-loaded detent pin ( Figures 2 and 4 ). Thus, the pre-positioning element 22 is movably mounted relative to the stop element 18. The stop element 18 has, for receiving the pre-positioning element 22, at least one receiving recess 30, in which the pre-positioning element 22 is arranged at least partially. The stop unit 16 comprises a load on the Vorpositionierungselements 22 with a force in the direction of the guide member 28 or in the direction of the further latching track 26 at least one spring element 58 (FIG. Figures 2 and 4 ). The spring element 58 is designed as a helical compression spring. However, it is also conceivable that the spring element 58 has another, a skilled person appear appropriate design. The spring element 58 is arranged in the receiving recess 30 of the stop element 18. In addition, the spring element 58 is arranged in a recess 60 of the Vorpositionierungselements 22. Thus, the spring element 58 is supported with one end on the stop element 18 and with a further end, the spring element 58 is supported on the Vorpositionierungselement 22 from. Thus, the stop element 18 is acted upon by a spring force of the spring element 58 and by the interaction of the Vorpositionierungselements 22 with the further latching track 26 with a force in a direction away from the guide member 28 direction. As a result, the fixing element 20 is also subjected to a force in at least one state in the direction of a release position of the fixing element 20.

Zu einer Beweglichkeit des Anschlagelements 18 durch eine Bewegung des Bedienelements 32 in der FĆ¼hrungsausnehmung 34 in einer Freigabeposition des Fixierelements 20 weist das Vorpositionierungselement 22 einen halbkugelfƶrmigen Rastkopf 62 auf. Der Rastkopf 62 wirkt hierbei mit der weiteren Rastbahn 26 zusammen. Hierbei wird der Rastkopf 62 mittels einer Federkraft des Federelements 58 in Richtung des FĆ¼hrungselements 28 bzw. der weiteren Rastbahn 26 beaufschlagt. Bei einer Bewegung des Anschlagelements 18 durch eine Bewegung des Bedienelements 32 in der FĆ¼hrungsausnehmung 34 kann der Rastkopf 62 infolge eines Ɯberrastens entlang der weiteren Rastbahn 26 gleiten. Hierbei werden der Rastkopf 62 und das Vorpositionierungselement 22 entgegen einer Federkraft des Federelements 58 in Richtung des Anschlagelements 18 in die Aufnahmeausnehmung 30 des Anschlagelements 18 hineingedrĆ¼ckt. Sobald eine Bewegung des Bedienelements 32 beendet wird, werden das Vorpositionierungselement 22 und der Rastkopf 62 durch eine Federkraft des Federelements 58 in Eingriff von zumindest zwei Rastbereichen bzw. von zumindest zwei RastzƤhnen der weiteren Rastbahn 26 gebracht. Hierdurch wird sichergestellt, dass das Anschlagelement 18 sich nach einer Einstellung einer Schnitttiefe nicht durch eine auf das Anschlagelement 18 einwirkende Gewichtskraft aus der eingestellten Position bewegt. Somit ist das Anschlagelement 18 mittels des Vorpositionierungselements 22 vorpositioniert.For a mobility of the stop element 18 by a movement of the operating element 32 in the guide recess 34 in a release position of the fixing element 20, the pre-positioning element 22 has a hemispherical latching head 62. The latching head 62 interacts here with the further latching track 26. Here, the latching head 62 is acted upon by means of a spring force of the spring element 58 in the direction of the guide element 28 and the further latching track 26. During a movement of the stop element 18 by a movement of the operating element 32 in the guide recess 34, the latching head 62 can slide as a result of overriding along the further latching track 26. Here, the latching head 62 and the pre-positioning element 22 are pressed against a spring force of the spring element 58 in the direction of the stop element 18 in the receiving recess 30 of the stop element 18. As soon as a movement of the operating element 32 is terminated, the pre-positioning element 22 and the latching head 62 are brought into engagement with at least two latching areas or at least two latching teeth of the further latching track 26 by a spring force of the spring element 58. This ensures that the stop element 18 is not adjusted by a force acting on the stop element 18 weight force from the set after setting a depth of cut Position moves. Thus, the stop element 18 is prepositioned by means of the pre-positioning element 22.

Bei einer Bearbeitung eines WerkstĆ¼cks (hier nicht nƤher dargestellt) wird nach einer Einstellung einer Schnitttiefe mittels einer Positionierung des Anschlagelements 18 das WerkzeugmaschinengehƤuse 38 um die Tauchschwenkachse 50 relativ zur Auflageeinheit 44 in Richtung der Auflageeinheit 44 geschwenkt (Figur 3). Hierdurch kommen SchneidzƤhne des Bearbeitungswerkzeugs 42 zu einer Bearbeitung des WerkstĆ¼cks in Kontakt bzw. in Eingriff mit dem WerkstĆ¼ck. Das WerkzeugmaschinengehƤuse 38 wird solange um die Tauchschwenkachse 50 geschwenkt, bis ein Anschlagbereich 64 des WerkzeugmaschinengehƤuses 38 am Anschlagelement 18 anschlƤgt. Hierdurch wird ein Moment erzeugt, das das Anschlagelement 18 um die Bewegungsachse 36 des Anschlagelements 18 relativ zum Bedienelement 32 schwenkt. Infolge der Schwenkbewegung des Anschlagelements 18 relativ zum Bedienelement 32 gelangt das Fixierelement 20 in Eingriff mit der Rastbahn 24 bzw. mit RastzƤhnen der Rastbahn 24. Das Fixierelement 20 ist somit in einer Sperrposition, in der eine Bewegung des Anschlagelements 18 entlang der FĆ¼hrungsausnehmung 34 durch ein Zusammenwirken des Fixierelements 20 und der Rastbahn 24 verhindert wird. Das Vorpositionierungselement 22 greift in einer Sperrposition des Fixierelements 20 stets in die weitere Rastbahn 26 ein.When machining a workpiece (not shown in detail here), the machine tool housing 38 is pivoted about the dip pivot axis 50 relative to the support unit 44 in the direction of the support unit 44 after setting a depth of cut by means of a positioning of the stop element 18 ( FIG. 3 ). As a result, cutting teeth of the machining tool 42 come to a machining of the workpiece in contact or in engagement with the workpiece. The machine tool housing 38 is pivoted as long as the dip pivot axis 50 until a stop portion 64 of the machine tool housing 38 abuts the stop element 18. As a result, a moment is generated which pivots the stop element 18 about the movement axis 36 of the stop element 18 relative to the operating element 32. As a result of the pivotal movement of the stop element 18 relative to the operating element 32, the fixing element 20 engages with the latching track 24 or with latching teeth of the latching track 24. The fixing element 20 is thus in a locking position, in which a movement of the stop element 18 along the guide recess 34 by a Cooperation of the fixing element 20 and the latching track 24 is prevented. The Vorpositionierungselement 22 always engages in a locking position of the fixing element 20 in the further latching track 26 a.

Sobald das WerkzeugmaschinengehƤuse 38 infolge einer Unterbrechung einer Bearbeitung des WerkstĆ¼cks usw. in eine von der Auflageeinheit 44 abgewandte Richtung geschwenkt wird, bewegt das Vorpositionierungselement 22 bzw. eine auf das Vorpositionierungselement 22 wirkende Federkraft des Federelements 58 das Fixierelement 20 in eine von der Rastbahn 26 weg gerichtete Richtung in eine Freigabeposition des Fixierelements 20. Hierbei wird das Anschlagelement 18 durch das Vorpositionierungselement 22 bzw. eine auf das Vorpositionierungselement 22 wirkende Federkraft des Federelements 58 in eine vom FĆ¼hrungselement 28 weggerichtete Richtung um die Bewegungsachse 36 des Anschlagelements 18 relativ zum Bedienelement 32 geschwenkt. Das Vorpositionierungselement 22 bleibt hierbei in Kontakt mit der weiteren Rastbahn 26 und vorpositioniert das Anschlagelement 18 in einer Position relativ zum FĆ¼hrungselement 28.As soon as the machine tool housing 38 is pivoted in a direction away from the support unit 44 as a result of an interruption of machining of the workpiece, the pre-positioning element 22 or a spring force of the spring element 58 acting on the pre-positioning element 22 moves the fixing element 20 away from the latching track 26 Direction in a release position of the fixing 20. Here, the stop member 18 is pivoted by the Vorpositionierungselement 22 and acting on the Vorpositionierungselement 22 spring force of the spring element 58 in a direction away from the guide member 28 direction about the movement axis 36 of the stop member 18 relative to the control element 32. The pre-positioning element 22 in this case remains in contact with the further latching track 26 and pre-positions the stop element 18 in a position relative to the guide element 28.

Des Weiteren weist die Anschlageinheit 16 zumindest ein FĆ¼hrungsschienenausgleichselement 66 auf (Figur 2). Das FĆ¼hrungsschienenausgleichselement 66 ist dazu vorgesehen, eine Abstandsdifferenz einer AuflageflƤche 68 (Figur 1) relativ zu einer WerkstĆ¼ckoberflƤche bei einer Nutzung der tragbaren Werkzeugmaschine 12 mit einer FĆ¼hrungsschienenvorrichtung (hier nicht nƤher dargestellt) im Vergleich zu einer Nutzung der tragbaren Werkzeugmaschine 12 entkoppelt von der FĆ¼hrungsschienenvorrichtung auszugleichen. Das FĆ¼hrungsschienenausgleichselement 66 ist hierbei drehbar um eine zumindest im Wesentlichen parallel zur Bewegungsachse 36 des Anschlagelements 18 verlaufende Bewegungsachse 70 des FĆ¼hrungsschienenausgleichselements 66 am Anschlagelement 18 gelagert. Bei einer Nutzung der tragbaren Werkzeugmaschine 12 mit einer FĆ¼hrungsschienenvorrichtung wird infolge einer Drehung des FĆ¼hrungsschienenausgleichselements 66 um die Bewegungsachse 70 des FĆ¼hrungsschienenausgleichselements 66 relativ zum Anschlagelement 18 eine neue AnschlagflƤche fĆ¼r den Anschlagbereich 64 des WerkzeugmaschinengehƤuses 38 bereitgestellt, die einen Ausgleich der Abstandsdifferenz ermƶglicht. Zu einer Bewegung des FĆ¼hrungsschienenausgleichselements 66 weist die Anschlageinheit 16 zumindest ein Drehhebelbedienelement 72 auf (Figur 2). Das Drehhebelbedienelement 72 ist am FĆ¼hrungsschienenausgleichselement 66 fixiert.Furthermore, the stop unit 16 has at least one guide rail compensation element 66 (FIG. FIG. 2 ). The guide rail compensation element 66 is intended to provide a distance difference of a support surface 68 (FIG. FIG. 1 ) relative to a workpiece surface when using the portable power tool 12 with a guide rail device (not shown in detail here) compared to a use of the portable power tool 12 decoupled from the guide rail device compensate. The guide rail compensation element 66 is in this case mounted rotatably about an at least substantially parallel to the movement axis 36 of the stop element 18 extending movement axis 70 of the guide rail compensation element 66 on the stop element 18. When using the portable power tool 12 with a guide rail device, a new abutment surface for the abutment portion 64 of the machine tool housing 38 is provided as a result of rotation of the guide rail compensation element 66 about the movement axis 70 of the guide rail compensation element 66 relative to the stop element 18, which allows compensation of the distance difference. For a movement of the guide rail compensation element 66, the stop unit 16 has at least one rotary lever operating element 72 (FIG. FIG. 2 ). The rotary lever operating element 72 is fixed to the guide rail compensation element 66.
