  • Publication number: 20260221796
    Abstract: A mobile power distribution system is provided. In one example embodiment, the mobile power distribution system can include a wireless module, a display with a graphical user interface, and a battery charger system. The wireless module can communicate data associated with the mobile power distribution system via one or more wireless communication links. The battery charger system can include one or more input power sources, a power bus coupled to the one or more input power sources, a communication bus coupled to the one or more input power sources and to the power bus, and one or more charger devices coupled to the power bus and the communication bus. The battery charger system can be configured to provide bus power to the one or more charger devices based at least in part on one or more arbitration schemes configured to allocate bus power between the one or more charger devices.

  • Publication number: 20260123587
    Abstract: A walk-behind blower includes a frame, one or more movable elements, a housing, and a fan assembly. The one or more movable elements are mounted to the frame to movably support the frame. The housing is supported on the frame. The housing defines an airflow conduit extending therethrough between a first end and a second end. At least a portion of the housing is movable relative to the frame to selectively redirect an airflow from the airflow conduit. The fan assembly is disposed between the first end and the second end to motivate the airflow through the airflow conduit.

  • Publication number: 20240397868
    Abstract: A modular equipment assembly may include a base unit and a secondary front unit. The base unit may include a base frame, a motor, a tool interface, one or more wheels, and a handle. The motor may be mounted on the base frame. The tool interface may be disposed within the base frame in mechanical communication with the motor to removably attach a first tool head to the base frame. The one or more wheels may be mounted to the base frame apart from the movable tool to support the base unit. The handle may be mounted to and extend rearwardly from the base frame. The secondary front unit may be removably attached to the base unit, the secondary front unit may include a secondary front frame selectively disposed in front of the base frame forward from the tool interface to move with the base unit.

  • Publication number: 20240333179
    Abstract: A power including a housing, a motor, a motor drive circuit, a trigger, and an electronic controller. The motor is located within the housing and is coupled to an output member. The trigger is configured to generate a trigger signal related to an activation of the trigger. The electronic controller is configured to receive the trigger signal from the trigger. The trigger signal corresponds to a first amount of activation of the trigger. The electronic controller is also configured to determine a magnitude of a characteristic associated with the first amount of activation of the trigger and modify the trigger signal based on the magnitude of the characteristic. The modified trigger signal corresponds to a second amount of activation of the trigger. The second amount of activation of the trigger is different than the first amount of activation of the trigger.
