An impact tool is provided that can efficiently reduce the vibration resulting from the striker and that does not lead to a larger design even with the use of a counterweight mechanism. A counterweight mechanism is provided in a motion converter housing, facing the handle. The counterweight mechanism is positioned between a center of gravity of the impact tool and the grip of the handle and is positioned above the control substrate. The counterweight mechanism is equipped with a first support, a second support, a weight support member, and a counterweight.

What is claimed is: 1. An impact tool comprising: a housing: a motor having a rotation shaft, the motor being accommodated in the housing and generating a rotational drive force when powered; a reciprocating motion converter configured to convert the rotational drive force of the motor to a reciprocating motion; a tool bit attached to one end portion of the housing and driven by the reciprocating motion of the reciprocating motion converter; a handle positioned at another end portion of the housing; and a counterweight mechanism operable to reduce vibrations generated attendant to the reciprocating motion, the counterweight mechanism being disposed in a section of the housing which is separated by a wall from the handle; wherein the counterweight mechanism includes a counterweight supported at opposite ends thereof and extending in a direction transverse to a direction of the reciprocating motion. 2. The impact tool according to claim 1, further comprising a control substrate disposed in the housing and configured to control the rotational drive force generated by the motor, the control substrate being disposed in opposition to the section of the housing in which the counterweight mechanism is disposed. 3. The impact tool according to claim 2, wherein the control substrate is disposed between the motor and the handle, and the counterweight mechanism is disposed in opposition to the control substrate in a direction extending in parallel to the rotation shaft of the motor. 4. The impact tool according to claim 2, further comprising a transfer shaft interposed between the rotation shaft of the motor and the reciprocating motion converter, the transfer shaft transferring the rotational drive force generated by the motor to the reciprocating motion converter, wherein the counterweight mechanism is disposed between the transfer shaft and the handle. 5. The impact tool according to claim 1, wherein the handle comprises a grip, and wherein the counterweight is disposed between the grip and a center of gravity of the impact tool. 6. The impact tool according to claim 1, wherein the handle extends substantially in parallel to the rotation shaft of the motor, the handle comprising a grip, and the counterweight mechanism being disposed in opposition to and facing the grip. 7. The impact tool according to claim 6, wherein the counterweight extends in a direction substantially parallel to the rotation shaft of the motor. 8. The impact tool according to claim 1, wherein the counterweight mechanism is disposed in the section of the housing at a position below an upper part of the handle. 9. The impact tool according to claim 1, wherein the counterweight is disposed in the section of the housing at a position below an upper part of the handle. 10. The impact tool according to claim 1, wherein the counterweight is supported at the opposite ends by a leaf spring. 11. An impact tool comprising: a housing: a motor having a rotation shaft, the motor being accommodated in the housing and generating a rotational drive force when powered; a reciprocating motion converter configured to convert the rotational drive force of the motor to a reciprocating motion; a tool bit attached to one end portion of the housing and driven by the reciprocating motion of the reciprocating motion converter; a handle positioned at another end portion of the housing; a counterweight mechanism operable to reduce vibrations generated attendant to the reciprocating motion, the counterweight mechanism being disposed in a section of the housing which is separated by a wall from the handle; wherein the counterweight mechanism includes a counterweight supported at opposite ends thereof and extending in a direction substantially parallel to an extension direction of the handle. 12. The impact tool according to claim 11, wherein the counterweight is supported at the opposite ends by a leaf spring. 13. An impact tool comprising: a housing; a motor having a rotation shaft, the motor being accommodated in the housing and generating a rotational drive force when powered; a reciprocating motion converter configured to convert the rotational drive force of the motor to a reciprocating motion; a tool bit attached to one end portion of the housing and driven by the reciprocating motion of the reciprocating motion converter; a handle positioned at another end portion of the housing; and a counterweight mechanism operable to reduce vibrations generated attendant to the reciprocating motion, the counter weight mechanism being disposed in a section of the housing which is separated by a wall from the handle; wherein the counterweight mechanism includes a counterweight supported by a leaf spring extending in a direction transverse to a direction of the reciprocating motion. 14. The impact tool according to claim 13, wherein the counterweight is supported at opposite ends by the leaf spring.
