Abstract: A portable fluid tank system can include a fluid tank with an internal volume for fluid storage and a fluid actuation system for controlled fluid movement and pressurization. An electronics housing within the portable fluid tank system can accommodate a removable energy storage device, providing power to the actuation system. The portable fluid tank system can include an integrated spill face that has an annular rim defining an aperture for fluid transfer into or out of the fluid tank. An upper segment of the rim can be elevated and closer to the housing, guiding fluid overflow away from the electronics housing and thus the electronics. A lower segment of the rim can serve as an egress point during overflows.

Abstract: A power tool comprises a housing and a motor having a drive shaft. An output shaft is connectable to a tool. A mode selection mechanism is couplable between the drive shaft and the output shaft and arranged to transmit drive therebetween. The mode selection mechanism is moveable between a first position in which the power tool operates in a first mode and a second position in which the power tool operates in a second mode. A mode selection actuator is mounted on the housing and arranged to select at least the first position and the second position of the mode selection mechanism. An actuating rod is coupled between the mode selection mechanism and an engaging portion of the mode selection actuator. The engaging portion and rod are moveable in a direction along a longitudinal axis of the rod when the mode selection mechanism moves between the first and second positions.

Abstract: A power tool accessory for cutting tubular members includes a housing, an input shaft configured to be coupled to a rotary power tool, a transmission, and a cutting head removably received in a front end of the housing. The transmission includes an input gear and an output gear with a first plurality of teeth. The cutting head has a central opening, a cutting blade protruding into the central opening, and a second plurality of teeth engaged by the first plurality of teeth. A clamp assembly coupled to the housing is moveable between a first position where the cutting head is removable from the housing and a second position where the cutting head is retained in the housing. The cutting head receives a tubular member in the central opening with the cutting blade engaging the tubular member to cut the tubular member as the cutting head rotates about the tubular member.

Abstract: A high inertia driver system for a fastening tool having an electric motor that drives a flywheel to contact a driver blade to drive a fastener into a workpiece. The high inertia driver system also has a return system which prevents the unintentional driving of a second fastener. The return system uses a return spring that controls the recoil energy of the driver blade after driving a fastener into a workpiece. The system achieves a long operational life for the fastening tool by increasing the number of return cycles of the driver blade free of a return spring failure.

Abstract: According to examples, a pressure washer may include a main housing including an inlet, an outlet, and a pump to force liquid to enter the main housing through the inlet and to exit the main housing through the outlet. The pressure washer may also include a roll cage surrounding the main housing, in which the roll cage may include a pair of support bars, a crossbar movably mounted to the pair of support bars; and a latch mechanism to releasably secure the crossbar to at least one of the pair of support bars. The crossbar may be spaced from the main housing to form a storage space, in which the crossbar is movable between multiple positions to enable ready access to the storage space.

Abstract: A power tool is provided including a tool housing; a rear tool cap separately formed from the tool housing and mounted on a rear end of the tool housing; and a motor. The motor includes a stator, a rotor shaft; a rear bearing mounted on the rotor shaft and supported by a central bearing pocket of the rear tool cap, and a rotor. The rear tool cap further comprises a constraining member extending from the radial body, where the constraining member is configured to engage a portion of the stator to securely locate the stator within the tool housing and pilot the rear bearing relative to the stator independently of the tool housing.

Abstract: According to examples, a power tool may include a chassis and a guide bar mounted to the chassis, the guide bar having a central axis. The power tool may also include a handle attached to the chassis above the central axis of the guide bar and a motor housed within the chassis to drive a chain around the guide bar, in which the motor is positioned beneath the central axis of the guide bar and a central axis of the motor is at a certain angle with respect to the central axis. The handle, the motor, and the battery pack mount may be positioned with respect to the chassis to cause the power tool to substantially be balanced in both lateral and longitudinal directions about a location near the trigger mechanism when the battery pack is mounted to the battery pack mount.

Abstract: Power-driven knockout tools are provided, including knockout tool accessory devices for power-driven tools. A plurality of different die sets can be coupled to the knockout tools, for forming openings through rigid plate or sheet material. The knockout tool portion of the tools may include a transmission that provides for sufficient speed reduction and corresponding increase in output torque from an input speed/torque associated with a rotary force input to the transmission to an output speed and an output torque for the pulling of a punch portion of the die set through the rigid sheet or plate material.

Abstract: This application relates to a cordless power tool system including a set of cordless power tools, a set of rechargeable and removable battery packs, and a set of battery pack chargers.

Abstract: A crimping accessory and/or a pinching accessory for a power-driven tool is provided. The crimping accessory and/or the pinching accessory can include first and second jaws that are rotatably coupled relative to a guide assembly and an actuating mechanism coupled in the guide assembly. The actuating mechanism includes a trunnion mounted on a rod. First and second cam followers exert a force on first cam surfaces of the first and second jaws as the trunnion moves in a first longitudinal direction, to bring the jaws together in a crimping and/or pinching area of the accessory and exert a crimping and/or pinching force on a workpiece. Movement of a pair of first pins and a pair of second pins along second cam surfaces of the first and second jaws guides an opening movement of the first and second jaws to release the force exerted on the workpiece.

Abstract: A power tool battery pack enclosure is configured to be coupled to battery pack receptacles of a plurality of power tools, each battery pack receptacle configured to removably receive a plurality of power tool battery packs. The enclosure includes a first clamshell member and a second clamshell member configured to be coupled around at least a portion of an exterior surface of each battery pack receptacle. Each of the first and second clamshell members have a top wall portion configured to be received over the exterior surface of the battery pack receptacle and a sidewall portion that extends downward from the top wall portion over at least a portion of the battery pack housing when the battery pack is received in the battery pack receptacle.

Abstract: A circular saw blade includes a circular plate-like body having a first side face, an opposite second side face, a periphery, and a central opening defining a center point, and rotatable in a cutting direction. A plurality of circumferentially-spaced teeth are separated by a plurality of gullets. The teeth include a plurality of first beveled teeth with a top face beveled radially inward in a first direction, a plurality of second beveled teeth with a top face beveled radially inward in an opposite second direction, and a plurality of unbeveled teeth. The first beveled teeth, second beveled teeth, and unbeveled teeth are arranged in an alternating top bevel+raker pattern. Each second beveled tooth is disposed radially inward toward the central opening from each first beveled tooth by a first drop distance.
