  • Patent number: 12202053
    Abstract: The invention relates to a machine tool with a tool receiving device that is movable around an output shaft. The tool receiving device is designed to hold a tool device on the machine tool such that the output shaft and a tool rotation axis substantially coincide. The tool receiving device has at least one torque transmission region and a holding device. To transmit a driving force to the tool device, the torque transmission region has at least two output area regions arranged at a distance from said output shaft, with each having a multiplicity of surface points. The tangent planes to said surface points are inclined in regard to an axial plane including said output shaft. The tangent planes are inclined in regard to a radial plane extending perpendicularly to the output shaft. The machine tool thus transmits the output torque to the tool device via the tool receiving device.

  • Patent number: 12053868
    Abstract: This clamping tool uses optical distance verification with a laser. Clamping tools, like all tools, are known to be operated improperly. Many tools verify process completion by monitoring the pressure within the pneumatic tool. Previous qualifiers use pressure to determine many things. However, it often misses if a small object impedes a full stroke. With the addition of an optical laser sensor, we are able to determine if a clamping tool reaches full stroke.

  • Patent number: 11811248
    Abstract: A system for generator-based charging of a battery module may include the battery module, a sensor located adjacent the battery module, a generator controller comprising a processor and a non-transitory memory device storing instructions. The instructions, when executed by the processor, cause the generator controller to analyze one or more sensor signals received from the sensor. The sensor signals may correspond to a condition of the battery module. The generator controller may then calculate, based on the one or more sensor signals, a generator current value for use in charging the battery module. Next, the generator controller may generate a control signal comprising a command that may cause the generator to provide a charging current having the current value.
