A hammer drill has an aluminum cylinder non-rotatably mounted in a crank housing, a synthetic resin slide sleeve, and a tool holder. The latter two members are coaxially fitted over the front part of the cylinder. The slide sleeve is a cylindrical member slidably mounted between a large bore portion of the tool holder and the cylinder. A steel ring is mounted at the rear of the slide sleeve. The slide sleeve and the steel ring are urged in the forward direction by a compression spring interposed between a bevel gear and the steel ring. A first air chamber which is formed in the cylinder includes a plurality of air ports which are covered by the steel ring when the slide sleeve and steel ring are pushed in their respective rear positions by pressing a tool bit attached to the hammer against a work piece. A plurality of wide and narrow slits are formed in the front portion of the slide sleeve while a plurality of air passage holes are also formed in the large bore portion of the tool holder.

[ What is claimed is:] [1.] A hammer drill, comprising:a motor for providing drive power for the hammer drill;a cylinder fixed in a housing;a tool holder coaxially fitted around the cylinder for holding a tool bit in a front thereof;a piston reciprocably mounted in the cylinder;a striking member reciprocably mounted in the cylinder in front of the piston for imparting hammer blows to the tool bit held in the tool holder;an air chamber formed between the piston and the striking member in the cylinder for pneumatically actuating the striking member so that the reciprocating motion of the piston can be transmitted to the striking member;a rotation transmission mechanism for transmitting the rotation of the motor to the tool holder so as to rotate the tool holder;means forming at least one air port formed in a peripheral wall of the air chamber for pneumatically communicating the inside of the air chamber with the outside of the cylinder; andan axially movable cylindrical slide sleeve urged in the forward direction by urging means, the slide sleeve being mounted between the cylinder and the tool holder, the slide sleeve being pushed backward together with the tool bit and covering the at least one air port in the peripheral wall of the air chamber during normal operation of the hammer drill, and the slide sleeve being moved forward by the urging means and uncovering the at least one air port during idle operation of the hammer drill, thereby, terminating the pneumatic actuation of the striking member;wherein each of the cylinder, the slide sleeve, and the tool holder has at least one air vent formed therein for venting air in the cylinder in front of the striking member to the outside of the tool holder.
