A power operated percussion tool in which a shoulder (28) in the tool housing (10, 17) defines a rear rest position for working implement (12) attached to the tool, and in which an energy absorbing bias unit (23, 31) is arranged to resiliently load the working implement (12) toward the rest position. The bias unit (23, 31) comprises a spring (23) and a shock wave mitigating ring assembly (31) and acts between a rearwardly facing shoulder (22) in the housing (10, 17) and a forwardly facing shoulder (30) on the working implement (12). The ring assembly (31) includes two spring steel rings (32, 33) formed with mating conical contact surfaces for transforming axial load variations into radial deformation of the rings (32, 33). |
