It is an object of the invention to provide an effective technique for
enhancing the effect of reducing vibration of a grip of a reciprocating
power tool. According to the present invention, a representative
reciprocating power tool may comprise a tool bit, a tool body and a grip.
The grip is connected to the tool body via an elastic element and a
vibration damping part. The elastic element is resiliently disposed
between the tool body and the grip and serves to absorb vibration
transmitted from the tool body to the grip during operation. The
vibration damping part is disposed between the tool body and the grip and
serves to damp and/or attenuate the vibration. According to the
invention, the spring constant of the elastic element can be made smaller
due to vibration damping part.
