Abstract

A handheld apparatus includes a handle at least partially engaging around a housing. The housing extends along a longitudinal axis from the back to the front end. The apparatus possesses a longitudinal plane which in a storage position runs perpendicular to the horizontal plane and contains the longitudinal axis. An operator-control region has a handle opening penetrating fully through the housing in the direction transverse to the longitudinal plane. The handle opening has in the direction of the longitudinal axis a distance point with the largest distance to the back end. The operator-control region extends in the direction of the longitudinal axis from the back end up to the distance point. The housing possesses an imaginary tangential plane which is only tangent to the housing, runs perpendicular to the longitudinal plane and is tangent to the handle. The imaginary plane is tangent to the housing in the operator-control region.
