Abstract

A screwdriver having a changeable direction freewheel lock, having a drive output member that is mounted so as to be rotatable about an axis in a bearing eye of a drive input member and has a circumferential toothing and a drive-output profile portion, and locking members that are inserted in a pocket of the drive input member and each have a locking toothing for engaging with the circumferential toothing in a manner preventing rotation. What is essential is that the locking members are two bodies that are movable relative to one another, can be displaced in an articulated manner with respect to one another and each have a switching extension which project into the same switching recess of a switching member.
