The light assembly includes a base, a leg, and a light source. The leg is coupled to the base or the lid and is rotatable about a rotation axis. The light source is pivotally coupled to the leg and is rotatable about a rotation axis.

Abstract: A blower vacuum, the blower vacuum including a nozzle forming a first opening, a fan housing in fluid communication with the nozzle, an inlet exhaust housing rotatably coupled to the fan housing, and a debris housing. The fan housing forms a second opening. A fan assembly is positioned at the fan housing. The inlet exhaust housing includes an inlet portion and an exhaust portion. The inlet exhaust housing is rotatable to a first position forming a blower operation and a second position forming a vacuum operation. The debris housing is coupled to the exhaust portion of the inlet exhaust housing.

Abstract: A circular saw includes a base with an opening therethrough, a blade guard coupled to the base, and a saw blade at least partially positioned within the blade guard and extending through the opening of the base. The saw blade and the blade guard are pivotable relative to the base to adjust a bevel angle of the saw blade relative to the base. The circular saw also includes a housing supported by the blade guard, a motor positioned within the housing that is operable to rotate the saw blade, and a bevel angle guide coupled between the base and the blade guard. The bevel angle guide configured to indicate the bevel angle at which the saw blade is adjusted. The bevel angle guide is integrally formed with the base as a single piece.

Abstract: A blade replacement apparatus is disclosed, including a nut loosening/tightening member, a locking member, and an operating member, wherein one of the nut loosening/tightening member and the operating member is provided with a first matching portion, and the locking member is provided with a second matching portion. The operating member is movable between an operating position and a non-operating position. When the operating member is in the non-operating position, the first matching portion engages with the second matching portion. The locking member and the operating member are rotatable to one another. Rotation of the nut loosening/tightening member around a first axis is obstructed by the locking member. When the operating member is in the operating position, the first matching portion is disengaged from the second matching portion, and rotation of the nut loosening/tightening member around the first axis tightens or loosens the nut.

Abstract: Systems and methods which provide motive forces with respect to various apparatuses using self-engaging/disengaging transmission configurations are described. An autonomous-state transmission may comprise a transmission unit configured to autonomously engage and disengage transmission of power from a driving input member to a driven output member without utilization of external gearing or additional mechanical feedback. Embodiments of an autonomous-state transmission may utilize various roller-ramp clutch configurations in communication with override control for disengaging the roller-ramp clutch. The override control may implement various configurations of a skidding mechanism for facilitating engaging and/or disengaging the roller-ramp clutch. According to some examples, motion of the driving input member and/or driven output member is utilized for override force detection and providing override control with respect to the autonomous-state transmission.

Abstract: A method of detecting a workpiece jam condition in a pneumatic tool includes striking a workpiece by a blade of the tool, detecting whether a piston to which the blade is attached reaches a predetermined position within a predetermined time, and determining a workpiece jam condition has occurred if the piston does not reach the predetermined position within the predetermined time.

Abstract: A work station includes a working surface configured to support a tool assembly, a base portion supporting the working surface, a table removably coupled to one or more of the working surface and the base portion, an aperture formed in the table, the aperture configured to selectively receive a suction device, and a downdraft surface positioned on at least one side of the table. The downdraft surface includes a plurality of recesses in fluid communication with the aperture, and the plurality of recesses are configured to generate a downdraft.

Abstract: A stackable storage system includes a first container, a second container, and a latch moveable between a first position and a second position. The first container includes a projection extending away from the first container along a stacking direction. An edge portion extends from the projection along a plane substantially perpendicular to the stacking direction. The second container includes a recess. The recess receives the projection when the first container and the second container are stacked relative to one another in the stacking direction. The latch overlaps the edge portion with respect to the stacking direction while in the first position to secure the first container and the second container. The latch and edge portion are positioned in a non-overlapping manner relative to one another while the latch is in the second position to permit separation of the first container from the second container.

Abstract: A storage system includes a panel secured to a support surface and a storage container removably supported on the panel. The panel includes a plurality of cleats. The storage container includes a first container portion, a second container portion, and a support feature engageable with the cleats. The second container portion and the first container portion are pivotably movable between a closed position and an open position. The support feature includes a first partial mounting portion and a second partial mounting portion. The second partial mounting portion is movable between a stowed position and an extended position. The first partial mounting portion and the second partial mounting portion cooperate to provide a mounting interface to engage the cleats while the second partial mounting portion is in the extended position.

Abstract: A power tool includes a power head receiving power from a power source. A drive coupled to the power head extends along a longitudinal axis, and the drive is engaged with a connector. Various aspects relate to the connector. The connector includes an internal bore configured to couple to the drive to a shank of a working tool. The connector further includes an external lobe protruding radially outward from the longitudinal axis, the lobe having a locking mechanism configured to secure the second working tool in response to relative movement between the lobe and the second working tool in both an axial direction and a rotational direction.

Abstract: A rotary tool mandrel includes a shaft, locking projections, a collar, and a fastener. The shaft extends along a longitudinal axis and includes a distal end. The locking projections protrude radially relative to the longitudinal axis and positioned on opposite sides of the longitudinal axis from one another. Each of the locking projections define a locking projection outer profile that is rectilinear. The collar is coupled to the shaft and includes a pair of coupling projections protruding from a surface of the collar adjacent the distal end of the shaft. The coupling projections are angularly offset from the locking projections with respect to the longitudinal axis. Each of the coupling projections define a coupling projection that is rectilinear. The fastener is coupled to the shaft and movable relative to the shaft along the longitudinal axis, and movement of the fastener causes the locking projections to move toward the coupling projections.
