  • Patent number: 12377479
    Abstract: A reciprocating saw includes a housing, a motor, and a drive mechanism. The motor includes an output gear rotatable about a motor axis. The drive mechanism includes a driven gear that engages the output gear and is rotated by the motor. The driven gear has a circumference and is vertically-oriented within the housing. The drive mechanism also includes an output shaft coupled to the driven gear and configured to reciprocate relative to the housing. The drive mechanism further includes a single counterweight fixed relative to the driven gear and rotating with the driven gear through a path and in a same direction. As the counterweight moves through a rearward half of the path, the counterweight generally moves in an upward direction, and as the counterweight moves through a forward half of the path, the counterweight generally moves in a downward direction.

  • Patent number: 12367015
    Abstract: Methods and systems for generating a sharable script related to an input digital model on a digital platform are provided. The method includes receiving a user request indicative of a digital task involving an input digital model, and retrieving a corresponding input digital model file. Then, determining characteristic attributes of the input digital model, where the characteristic attributes include digital artifacts generated from the input digital model file. Then, selecting from a collection of templates, using a machine learning (ML) engine, a template matching the characteristic attributes of the input digital model. The ML engine may be trained on documentations of digital tools integrated into the digital platform, a resource-capability mapping of the digital platform, and sample digital thread orchestration scripts collected through past uses of the digital platform. Finally, the method includes generating the sharable script that implements the digital task, based on the selected template.
