  • Publication number: 20230211490
    Abstract: An oscillating power tool includes an outer housing, and an inner housing positioned within the outer housing. A motor and a drive mechanism are supported by the inner housing. The drive mechanism includes an output shaft that is rotational in an oscillating manner and that defines an output axis. A damping element is positioned between the inner housing and the outer housing through which the inner housing is mounted to the outer housing, thereby attenuating vibration transmitted to the outer housing from the inner housing. An over-travel limit member is positioned between the inner housing and the outer housing. In response to relative movement between the inner housing and the outer housing while the power tool is in use, the limit member is configured to prevent direct contact between the inner housing and the outer housing, inhibiting vibration produced by the motor and/or drive mechanism from bypassing the damping element.

  • Publication number: 20230053646
    Abstract: The disclosure provides a photodegradant for carbamazepine, a method and an apparatus for degrading carbamazepine, and relates to the technical filed of degradation of organic pollutants. The photodegradant provided by the disclosure includes a composite solution of a persulfate and a sulfite. In the disclosure, ultraviolet (UV), the persulfate (PS) and the sulfite (S(IV)) are combined to degrade carbamazepine, during which hydrogen sulfate (HSO3?) generated by the hydrolysis of sulfite in water participates in the reaction to produce a large amount of SO4?? and HO?, thus improving the degradation rate and degradation efficiency of carbamazepine. The composite advanced oxidation system, i.e., the ultraviolet/persulfate/sulfite (UV/PS/S(IV)) system, provided by the disclosure has stronger oxidizability than the ultraviolet/persulfate (UV/PS) system and the ultraviolet/sulfite (UV/S(IV)) system, and results in high degradation rate and high degradation efficiency of carbamazepine.

  • Publication number: 20220347829
    Abstract: An oscillating power tool has a housing including a handle portion defining a handle axis and a head portion defining an output axis that is perpendicular to the handle axis. The head portion includes a front face intersected by the handle axis. A drive mechanism includes an output shaft configured to oscillate about the output axis in a rotational manner in response receiving torque from a motor. A lighting assembly is configured to illuminate a workpiece in front of the head portion of the housing. The lighting assembly includes a lens arranged on the front face of the housing, a holder coupled to the lens, a plurality of printed circuit boards supported by the holder, and an LED arranged on each of the printed circuit boards. In response to being activated, the LEDs are configured to project a wide-angle beam of light through the lens.
