Abstract
A power tool brake mechanism, in particular a portable power tool brake mechanism, includes at least one mechanical brake unit that has at least one brake element mounted rotatably about a rotation axis and at least one actuating unit that has at least one movably mounted actuating element. The actuating unit is configured to activate and/or deactivate the brake unit. The power tool brake mechanism further includes at least one movement converting unit that has at least one movement converting element configured to convert a movement of the actuating element into a movement of a counter-brake element of the brake unit. The movement of the counter-brake element is at least in a direction that is different from a direction extending along the rotation axis of the brake element.
