  • Patent number: 4962617
    Abstract: This disclosure is directed to a portable handheld power-driven tool such as a cutoff machine. The cutoff machine includes an engine having a drive shaft. A drive wheel for the work tool is provided at one end of the drive shaft and a fan wheel for moving cooling air to the engine is mounted at the other end of the drive shaft. A pull rope starter is mounted at the power takeoff end of the drive shaft so that it lies outside of the flow of cooling air. In this way, abrasive dust is prevented from accumulating on the pull rope starter and its operational service life is significantly increased.

  • Patent number: 4662071
    Abstract: The invention is directed to a motor-driven chain saw wherein a sprocket for a saw chain and a drive wheel for an oil pump are rotatably journalled on the crankshaft. The oil pump pumps oil for lubricating the saw chain and guide bar. The sprocket and the drive wheel are driven via a clutch drum. In this arrangement, a detachable resilient connecting member is provided to connect the drive wheel of the oil pump to the clutch drum at the peripheral wall of the latter. The resilient connecting member protects the drive wheel and the oil pump from excessive wear.
