Abstract

The present invention relates to various methods for changing an operating state of a machine tool. In the methods according to the invention, a machine tool comprises an acceleration sensor, wherein the acceleration of the machine tool can be measured in the three spatial directions by means of the acceleration sensor. On the basis of these values, an overall acceleration can be ascertained, which can be compared with a threshold value a_drop. The machine tool can, for example, be switched off, or the operating state thereof can be changed, when the overall acceleration falls below the threshold value a_drop for longer than a time period t_drop. According to an alternative method for changing an operating state of a machine tool, the machine tool can be switched off, or the operating state thereof can be changed, when the overall acceleration falls below the threshold value a_drop for longer than a time period t_min_drop_impact and exceeds a second threshold value a_impact within a time period t_post_drop_impact.

Abstract

The present invention relates to a method for tightening or loosening a screw connection between a core drill and a core bit, wherein the core drill comprises a core bit and a motor, wherein the core bit can be made to move in a first direction of rotation, while a reaction torque is generated by actuation of the motor during the tool change, in order to tighten or loosen the rotary lock between the core drill and the core bit. A second aspect of the invention relates to a core drill for carrying out the proposed method. By the actuation of the motor of the core drill, the motor can be made to work against the movement of the core bit in the first direction of rotation. As a result, a difference between the torque in the first direction of rotation and the reaction torque can be increased considerably by the actuation of the motor.
