  • Publication number: 20060237205
    Abstract: A mode selector mechanism is provided for a rotary power tool for selecting between an impact mode and a drill mode. The power tool includes a housing, a motor oriented in the housing, an input shaft and an output shaft both rotationally mounted in the housing. An impact mechanism connects the input shaft to the output shaft for imparting a rotary impact to the output shaft when the torque load exceeds a predetermined torque capacity of the impact mechanism. A stopping member is shiftable by a user between a first orientation that permits the impact mechanism to operate in the impact mode and a second orientation that prevents a coupler of the impact mechanism from retracting, thus maintaining the connection of the input shaft and the output shaft in the drill mode.

  • Publication number: 20050273373
    Abstract: The present invention generates a grid of low-priced fare combinations for either a selected departure and return date or a range of departure and return dates. The present invention uses various techniques to reduce processing and delay in generating the grids. The present invention first converts flight itineraries for the selected departure and return dates or the range of dates into the fare domain. The invention discards fare combinations that are not valid for the given travel request. The valid fare combinations are processed to determine which has the lowest fare price. The fare combinations are processed one at a time starting with the cheapest fare combination to determine which of the possible flight itineraries may be covered by the fare combination. The invention may use additional prunning steps to validate the fare combinations prior to application to individual flight itineraries. As each fare combination is matched to a flight itinerary, the grid is populated with this fare combination.
