Abstract: A power tool includes a tool body with a power source. A working component is rotatably coupled to the tool body to rotate about an axis. An electronic component is supported on the working component to rotate with it. A wireless power transfer system transmits power from the power source to the electronic component. The system includes a first circuit on the tool body with a first coil and power conversion module. The power conversion module generates AC current in the first coil to produce a magnetic field. A second circuit on the working component includes a second coil that interacts with the magnetic field, generating AC current that powers the electronic component.

Abstract: A work scheduling method utilizes a Computerized Maintenance Management System (CMMS) which communicates with a work order database and a labor pool database, each having a plurality of entries therein. A resource leveling program accesses the entries in the databases and applies an order of fire to the entries to utilize available manpower in a manner which at least attempts to achieve plant success through the provision of at least a draft work schedule. After running the resource level program, the preferred embodiment allows user input to affect at least portions of the order of fire to allow modification and an ability to rerun the program.

Abstract: Treatments for solid substrates to enhance the durability thereof. The treatments are silicon-containing treatments that form silicon-containing networks on the substrate in a very rapid manner after the incipient components are applied to the solid substrate.
