Abstract (en)

The invention relates to a holder, in particular a belt-suspendible, constructionally simple and hence light holder for an electric motor for driving a hand tool via a flexible shaft. According to the invention, the holder, in particular for a high-speed motor (8), consists of two members, viz. a member (1) which is mounted on a belt in a fixed position and a pivoting member (2) in which the motor (8) with the motor shaft can be fixed substantially horizontally, while the pivoting member (2), initiated by the flexible shaft, can pivot relative to the fixed member (1) with some friction. Thus, the flexible drive shaft is prevented as much as possible from being bent too sharply during work requiring the tool to be moved far from the motor. <IMAGE>
