Abstract: A tool for removing an interchangeable cooking insert from a grill has a handle end and an engagement end. A handle extends from the handle end toward the engagement end. A support arm extends from the handle toward the engagement end. The support arm has a first lateral edge defining a first lifting hook and a second lateral edge defining a second lifting hook. The first lifting hook and second lifting hook are configured to engage a portion of the cooking insert. A support pin extends across the support arm between the first lateral edge and the second lateral edge. A latch member is pivotally coupled to one of the support arm and the handle. The latch member includes a first end selectively engageable with a portion of the cooking insert and a second end extending through the handle for actuation of the latching member by a user.

Abstract: A power tool includes a housing, a motor supported by the housing and having an output shaft, a planetary transmission coupled to the output shaft and having an output carrier, a dual-eccentric scotch yoke mechanism coupled to the output carrier and drivable by the planetary transmission in response to rotation of the output shaft, and a blade coupled to the dual-eccentric scotch yoke mechanism for movement in a reciprocating manner.

Abstract: A charcoal ignition device generally includes a housing having a wall defining an interior cavity and an exterior surface. A blower assembly has an inlet end and an outlet end, with the outlet end in fluid communication with the interior cavity. The blower assembly includes a motor and a blower coupled to the motor. A battery receptacle is in electrical communication with the electric motor. The battery receptacle is configured to receive a rechargeable power-tool battery pack.

Abstract: An air compressor assembly is disclosed. The air compressor assembly includes a substantially curved frame including a lower frame portion and an upper frame portion, a fluid tank carried by the lower frame portion, a compressor mechanism carried by the lower frame portion, and a storage bin including an engagement mechanism releasably coupled to the upper frame portion.

Abstract: A power tool handle is selectively connectable to a power tool head. The power tool handle includes a grip portion defining a longitudinal axis, and a motor housed within the handle and including a drive shaft driven by the motor, the drive shaft mounted for rotation within the handle and defining an axis of rotation substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis of the handle. The power tool handle also includes a trigger disposed proximate the grip portion for actuating the motor, and a button movable in a direction defining an axis substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis to a first position when the tool head is coupled to the handle and to a second position when the tool head is removed from the handle. In the first position, the trigger can actuate the motor, and in the second position, the trigger is inhibited from actuating the motor.

Abstract: An air compressor includes a compressor unit having a motor with a motor housing, a pump operably coupled to the motor and having a pump housing formed as a single piece with a portion of the motor housing, and a first tank fluidly connected to the pump to receive pressurized air from the pump when operated by the motor. The air compressor also includes a tank unit removably coupled to the compressor unit in a stacked arrangement. The tank unit includes a second tank fluidly connected to the pump to receive pressurized air from the pump when operated by the motor.

Abstract: A battery pack that is capable of supplying high- and low-current discharge to end products. The battery pack includes a cylindrical housing with a lithium-ion battery cell enclosed within the housing. The housing also includes a first end portion, a second end portion, and a body portion. The first end portion includes a plurality of terminals for electrically connecting to the end product. The terminals include a high-current discharge terminal, a low-current discharge terminal, a battery pack identification terminal, a battery pack temperature terminal, and a positive voltage terminal. The second end portion includes a recess for removably securing the battery pack to an end product, such as a battery charger or a power tool. Included within the battery pack housing is circuitry for controlling the charging and discharging of the battery pack through the low-current discharge terminal.

Abstract: A mixing device includes a housing, a motor supported by the housing, and an agitator operably coupled to the motor. The mixing device also includes a clamping mechanism operable to secure the housing to an open end of a container. The clamping mechanism includes a backing member engageable with an interior surface of a container, and a movable clamping member engageable with an exterior surface of the container, such that a wall of the container may be grasped or secured between the backing member and the movable clamping member. The mixing device also includes an actuator coupled to the housing and movable between a first position in which the movable clamping member is biased to engage the exterior surface of the container, and a second position in which the movable clamping member is disengaged from the exterior surface of the container, against the bias of the clamping member.

Abstract: An air compressor assembly is disclosed. The air compressor assembly includes a substantially curved frame including a lower frame portion and an upper frame portion, a fluid tank carried by the lower frame portion, a compressor mechanism carried by the lower frame portion, and a storage bin including an engagement mechanism releasably coupled to the upper frame portion.

Abstract: A screw guide and a method of driving a screw into a work surface utilizing a driving tool and a screw guide. The screw guide having a body configured to be coupled with a rotating clamp of the rotary tool, the body defining a chamber for receiving a screw, and a support member coupled with the body and configured to maintain the screw in an orientation substantially parallel with the axis of the rotating clamp.

Abstract: A portable hand tool includes a housing with a handle configured to be carried by a user and a motor with a motor shaft rotatably extending therefrom. An output shaft rotatably connected to the motor shaft, upon which a cutting blade is rotatably fixed. The cutting blade is substantially enclosed within a blade guard. An impeller is rotatably mounted with one of the motor shaft or the output shaft and substantially enclosed within a fan housing. A plenum is configured to provide enclosed fluid communication between the blade guard and the fan housing, and at least one aperture defined in the blade guard in communication with the plenum.
