  • Patent number: 11780060
    Abstract: An anvil receives less stress around a rectangular prism and has higher durability. An impact wrench includes a motor, a hammer rotatable by the motor, a body accommodating the motor and the hammer, and an anvil protruding frontward from the body and to be struck in a rotation direction by the hammer. The anvil includes a blade to be in contact with the hammer, a cylinder located frontward from the blade, a rectangular prism located frontward from the cylinder, at least one chamfered surface each at an edge of the rectangular prism, and a concave on a rear end of the at least one chamfered surface.

  • Patent number: 11428402
    Abstract: A cement kiln burner device includes a powdered-solid-fuel flow channel, a first air flow channel placed inside the powdered-solid-fuel flow channel to be adjacent to the powdered-solid-fuel flow channel, having means for swirling an air flow, an outer air flow-channel group placed concentrically in an outermost side outside the powdered-solid-fuel flow channel, having three or more second air flow channels adapted to form means for straightly forwarding an air flow, and a combustible-solid-waste flow channel placed inside the first air flow channel. The second air flow channels are placed proximally to each other in a radial direction within a range where air flows ejected from the respective second air flow channels are merged to form a single air flow, and are configured to control flow rates of the air flow ejected from the respective second air flow channels, independently for each second air flow channel.
