  • Patent number: 11951596
    Abstract: A rotary impact tool includes a motor housing, an electric motor supported in the motor housing, and a drive assembly for converting a continuous torque input from the motor to consecutive rotational impacts upon a workpiece. The drive assembly includes an anvil including an anvil lug and a hammer that is both rotationally and axially movable relative to the anvil. The hammer includes a hammer lug for imparting the consecutive rotational impacts upon the anvil lug. The rotary impact tool further comprises a printed circuit board assembly including a sensor that is configured to detect rotation of the anvil. The printed circuit board assembly is spaced from the anvil to define an axial gap therebetween.

  • Patent number: 11938594
    Abstract: An impact tool includes a housing including a motor housing portion and a front housing coupled to the motor housing portion, a motor supported within the motor housing portion, a battery pack supported by the housing for providing power to the motor, and a drive assembly supported within the housing and configured to convert continuous torque from the motor to consecutive rotational impacts upon a workpiece capable of developing at least 1,700 ft-lbs of fastening torque. The drive assembly includes a camshaft driven by the motor for rotation about an axis, an anvil extending from the front housing, and a hammer configured to reciprocate along a travel portion of the camshaft between a rearmost position and a forwardmost position to deliver rotational impacts to the anvil in response to rotation of the camshaft.

  • Publication number: 20230202022
    Abstract: An impact tool includes a housing extending along a longitudinal axis. The housing includes a motor housing portion, a first handle extending from the motor housing portion, and a front housing coupled to the motor housing portion opposite the first handle. The impact tool also includes a motor supported within the motor housing portion, an anvil extending from the front housing, an impact mechanism supported within the front housing, and an auxiliary handle assembly. The auxiliary handle assembly includes a mount, an auxiliary handle coupled to the mount and spaced from the first handle, and an adjustment mechanism. Loosening the adjustment mechanism permits rotation of the auxiliary handle assembly about the longitudinal axis relative to the housing, and tightening the adjustment mechanism secures the auxiliary handle assembly in a selected rotational position.

  • Publication number: 20230184652
    Abstract: Implementations described herein are directed to leveraging odor sensor(s) of client device(s) in responding to user request(s) and/or in generating notification(s). Processor(s) of a given client device can receive a request to identify an odor in an environment of the given client device, process an odor data instance generated by the odor sensor(s) of the given client device, identify the odor based on processing the odor data instance, generate a response that identifies the odor and/or a source of the odor, and cause the response to the request to be rendered via the given client device. Processor(s) of the given client device can additionally, or alternatively, establish baseline odor(s) in the environment and generate a notification when an odor is detected that does not correspond to the baseline odor(s) and/or exclude the baseline odor(s) in generating the response to the request.
