A rotary power tool includes a housing, a tool element defining a working axis, and a handle coupled to the housing. The handle is movable along a first axis parallel with the working axis between a retracted position and an extended position. The handle includes an upper portion and a lower portion. The rotary power tool also includes an upper joint coupling the upper portion of the handle to the housing and a lower joint coupling the lower portion of the handle to the housing. Each of the upper and lower joints includes a rod extending into the handle and a biasing member disposed between the handle and the housing. The biasing member is operable to bias the handle toward the extended position. Each of the upper and lower joints is operable to attenuate vibration transmitted along the first axis and along a second axis orthogonal to the first axis.

1. A rotary power tool comprising: a housing;a tool element defining a working axis;a handle coupled to the housing and movable along a first axis parallel with the working axis between a retracted position and an extended position relative to the housing, the handle including an upper portion and a lower portion;an upper joint coupling the upper portion of the handle to the housing; anda lower joint coupling the lower portion of the handle to the housing, each of the upper and lower joints including a rod extending into the handle and a biasing member disposed between the handle and the housing, the biasing member operable to bias the handle toward the extended position,wherein each of the upper and lower joints is operable to attenuate vibration transmitted along the first axis and along a second axis orthogonal to the first axis,wherein each of the upper and lower joints further includes a first guide and a second guide disposed on opposing sides of the rod, the first and second guides being slidable along the rod as the handle moves between the extended position and the retracted position, andwherein each of the upper and lower joints further includes a first bumper disposed between the first guide and the handle and a second bumper disposed between the second guide and the handle, the first bumper and the second bumper operable to attenuate vibration transmitted along the second axis. 2. The rotary power tool of claim 1, wherein each of the upper and lower joints further includes a first bracket fixed to one of the housing and the rod and a second bracket coupled to the other of the housing and the rod. 3. The rotary power tool of claim 2, wherein at least one of the first bracket and the second bracket limits movement of the handle to the extended position. 4. The rotary power tool of claim 2, wherein the first bracket and the second bracket are generally T-shaped. 5. The rotary power tool of claim 2, wherein the first bracket is coupled to the housing using an insert molding process. 6. The rotary power tool of claim 1, wherein each of the upper and lower joints further includes a sleeve at least partially surrounding the rod and disposed between the rod and the first and second guides. 7. The rotary power tool of claim 6, wherein the sleeve has a generally square cross-sectional shape. 8. The rotary power tool of claim 1, wherein the biasing member attenuates vibration transmitted along the first axis. 9. The rotary power tool of claim 1, wherein the biasing member is a coil spring. 10. The rotary power tool of claim 1, wherein each of the upper and lower joints further includes a gap above and/or below the rod to permit limited movement of the handle relative to the housing along a third axis, the third axis being orthogonal to both the first axis and the second axis. 11. The rotary power tool of claim 10, wherein the biasing member attenuates vibration transmitted along the third axis. 12. The rotary power tool of claim 10, further comprising an upper bellows surrounding at least a portion of the upper joint and a lower bellows surrounding at least a portion of the lower joint, wherein the upper bellows and the lower bellows attenuate vibration transmitted along the third axis. 13. The rotary power tool of claim 1, wherein the handle includes first and second handle halves, wherein the first bumper is disposed between the first guide and the first handle half, and wherein the second bumper is disposed between the second guide and the second handle half. 14. The rotary power tool of claim 13, wherein each of the first and second handle halves includes a front wall, a rear wall, an upper wall, and a lower wall that collectively define a cavity. 15. The rotary power tool of claim 14, wherein the first and second guides are disposed within the cavity. 16. The rotary power tool of claim 14, wherein each of the upper and lower joints further includes a first gap between the upper wall and the rod and a second gap between the lower wall and the rod, the first and second gaps permitting limited movement of the handle relative to the housing along a third axis, the third axis being orthogonal to both the first axis and the second axis. 17. The rotary power tool of claim 16, wherein the biasing member is configured to resist shearing forces developed by movement of the handle relative to the housing along the third axis. 18. The rotary power tool of claim 16, wherein the first bumper and the second bumper are disposed within the cavity. 19. The rotary power tool of claim 16, wherein the first and second guides are constrained within the cavity along the first axis by the front wall and the rear wall. 20. The rotary power tool of claim 1, wherein the first and second guides are coupled to the handle for movement therewith along the first axis.
