Hand plane, in particular a hand plane machine designed as an electric hand tool machine

摘要

A hand plane, especially a hand plane machine, is provided with an adjusting and indicating arrangement for the planing depth. A wedge which is located before the tool element of the hand plane machine is adjustably fixed to an inclined base surface of the housing and constitutes the contact surface of the hand plane machine. A part of the wedge projects beyond the forward edge of the housing and is provided at its upper side with a scale. By means of the housing edge, the displacment of the wedge and consequently the adjustment of the planing depth can be read from the scale. The hand plane is of simple structure and good stability with respect to the adjustment, wherein the wedge can be fastened to the housing for example through screwing.
