Such portable power tools, which are driven hydraulically, pneumatically, or electrically, weight about 15 kg and are usually equipped with an elongate, waterflushed drill rod which is rotably and axially displaceably, within narrow limits, secured in the power tool and is provided at its free end with a drill bit made of a hard material and having a diameter of about 35 mm.
German Patent DE 74833 discloses a portable electrical rock power drill for drilling shot holes during underground mining works and provided with an elongate water-flushed drilling rod with a drill bit made of hard material, and a support device.
The drill rod displacement is effected with a hydraulic cylinder of which the telescopic drill rod forms a part.
U.S. Patent No. 4,000,873 discloses a portable power tool with an easily mountable displacement and support device which is supported on the ground and simultaneously applies a controlled displacement force to the drill. For forming substantially horizontal holes, the displacement and support device is inclined rearwardly and downwardly.
U.S. Patent No. 1,464,486 discloses a rotary-percussion power tool having a one-leg support and a discretely controlled control valve rotable about 3600. A sensitive manual control of the displacement and support device with such a valve is not possible.
U.S. Patent No. 1,151,261 discloses a fluid-driven percussion power tool with an axially arranged, one-leg support that is formed as a double-action cylinder and displacement of which is constantly controlled by a radial, rotationally adjustable worm 00 -2-

gear valve by effecting several revolutions. For a manual control over the entire control region of the displacement and support device, turning over of the controlling head is 0 z necessary.
00 It is an object of the present invention to overcome or ameliorate at least one of the disadvantages of the prior art, or to provide a useful alternative.
An object of the present invention at least in a preferred form is to provide a displacement and support device that can be comfortably controlled manually with one hand over its entire control region.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION According to the invention, there is provided a displacement and support device for a portable power tool having a first handle for providing a first gripping location, the displacement and support device comprising: a fluid-operated power cylinder; assembly means provided at one end of the power cylinder for connecting the power cylinder with the power tool wherein the assembly means is formed as partially torsion-free bolt connection element extending transverse to the power tool axis and projecting sideways on one side of the one end of the power cylinder and wherein the bolt connection element extends through an eyelet provided on the power tool; a support leg provided at another, opposite end of the power cylinder; a control valve for controlling operation of the power cylinder; a manually rotationally adjustable actuation member for actuating the control valve, the actuation member being formed as a second handle extending transverse to an axis of the power cylinder for providing a second gripping location, the second handle being rotationally adjustable about a handle axis within a rotational angle of 1800 that encompasses an entire control region of the control valve; and a fluid conduit formed in an interior of the bolt connection element and extending along a portion of a longitudinal extent thereof.
Unless the context clearly requires otherwise, throughout the description and the claims, the words "comprise", "comprising", and the like are to be construed in an inclusive sense as opposed to an exclusive or exhaustive sense; that is to say, in the sense of "including, but not limited to".
00 -2a- O With the entire control region of the control valve being within a rotational angle of the actuation member of 1800 or 900, a comfortable control and fixation of the 0 z displacement and support device becomes possible, without a need to turn the 00 controlling hand over and over again.
Advantageously, the continuously controlled control valve is formed as a rotary valve, which makes possible to continuously control, in a technological simple manner, the flow rate by adjusting the rotary position of the valve.
C~ Advantageously, the power cylinder is formed as a double-action cylinder, which provides for an easy withdrawal of the drill rod from the bore or hole.
Advantageously, fluid is fed through the pressure hose into the displacement and support device. This fluid is fed through the fluid conduit in the bolt connection element to the power tool. The fluid, which enters the displacement and support device flows to the conduit through a junction. Advantageously, the power cylinder is hydraulically operated in which the water, which is necessary for cooling and flushing the drill bit, is used as a pressure medium.
Advantageously, the support leg, which can be formed as an elongate member, is connected with the power cylinder by a claw member securable with a cross-pin.
Advantageously, the support device includes a stirrup-shaped handle rotably and linearly displaceably mounted on the power cylinder, which provides for an easy transportation of the displacement and support device with two hands.
The novel features of the present invention, which are considered as characteristic for the invention, are set forth in the appended claims. The invention itself, however, both as to its construction and its mode of operation, together with additional advantages and objects thereof, will be best understood from the following detailed description of preferred embodiment, when read with reference to the accompanying drawings.
