  • Patent number: 11970385
    Abstract: A fuel transfer station may provide for the refilling of fuel canisters providing fuel to combustion powered equipment. The fuel transfer station may include a base, a frame coupled to the base, a first connection port and a second connection port provided in the base, and fluid flow lines connecting the first connection port and the second connection port. A supply tank may be supported by the frame and detachably connected to the first connection port. A fuel canister to be refilled may be detachably connected to the second connection port. Fuel contained in the supply tank may be selectively supplied to the fuel canister through the fluid flow lines in response to a pressure gradient drawing the fuel into the fuel canister.

  • Patent number: 11937032
    Abstract: A system for remotely retrieving sensed conditions at one or more building components. The building components are remote or numerous so that a wireless collection of the sensed conditions provides a significant benefit to a builder or building operator. A remote transceiver sends a wireless signal to a building component. The building component includes an onboard transceiver. At least some of the energy from the transmitted wireless signal is received by the onboard transceiver, sent to a storage device, and stored therein. The stored energy is used to operate a sensor for sensing an onboard condition. The onboard condition is then wirelessly transmitted by the onboard transceiver back to the remote transceiver to be displayed.

  • Publication number: 20230405792
    Abstract: A power tool is provided including a power supply interface receiving a removable battery pack, a brushless direct current (BLDC) motor including a rotor and a stator, and a multi-phase inverter bridge circuit. A controller is provided to output drive signals to the inverter bridge circuit to control flow of current from to the motor, where each drive signal is activated within each corresponding phase of the motor within a conduction band. The controller is configured to control a length of the conduction band at a variable value within a first torque range below a torque threshold and at a substantially constant value within a second torque range above the torque threshold. The torque threshold is greater than approximately 1 Newton-meters and the motor produces a maximum power output of at least approximately 1250 watts at the torque of approximately 1 Newton-meters.
