Abstract: A wireless hoist system including a first hoist device having a first motor and a first wireless transceiver and a second hoist device having a second motor and a second wireless transceiver. The wireless hoist system includes a controller in wireless communication with the first wireless transceiver and the second wireless. The controller is configured to receive a user input and determine a first operation parameter and a second operation parameter based on the user input. The controller is also configured to provide, wirelessly, a first control signal indicative of the first operation parameter to the first hoist device and provide, wirelessly, a second control signal indicative of the second operation parameter to the second hoist device. The first hoist device operates based on the first control signal and the second hoist device operates based on the second control signal.

Abstract: A power tool includes a soft-stop transmission having a first component and a second component. The first component is configured to receive torque from a motor to rotate the first component in a first rotational direction. The second component is connected to an output of the power tool and is configured to rotate in a first rotational direction in unison with the first component. The second component is configured to rotate in the first rotational direction relative to the first component in response to angular deceleration of the first component. A damping element is positioned between the first component and second component, and the damping element is configured to bias the first component in the first rotational direction and the second component in an opposite, second rotational direction.

Abstract: An angle grinder is disclosed and includes a housing, a motor within the housing, a gearcase extending from the housing, wherein the gearcase includes a spindle and the spindle is driven by the motor, a rotating tool removable engaged with the spindle, a flange removably engaged with the spindle to secure the rotating tool on the spindle, and a flange retainer disposed on the grinder, wherein the flange retainer is configured to receive and retain the flange when the flange is disengaged from the spindle.

Abstract: A storage container for a hoist device includes a base that defines an inner cavity, and a lid pivotally coupled to the base and configured to close the inner cavity. The storage container also includes a lid pivotally coupled to the base and configured to close the inner cavity, a handle pivotally coupled to the base, and a latch configured to selectively secure the lid to the base in a closed state. The base further defines first storage receptacle having a first shape corresponding to a main body of the hoist device, a second storage receptacle having a second shape corresponding to a first hook of the hoist device, a third storage receptacle having a third shape corresponding to a second hook of the hoist device, and a fourth storage receptacle having a fourth shape corresponding to a chain of the hoist device.
