Publication number: 20230410385Abstract: The systems described in this disclosure can be used in construction settings to facilitate the tasks being performed. The location of projectors and augmented reality headsets can be calculated and used to determine what images to display to a worker, based on a map of work to be performed, such as a construction plan. Workers can use spatially-aware tools to make different locations be plumb, level, or equidistant with other locations. Power to tools can be disabled if they are near protected objects.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 30, 2023Publication date: December 21, 2023Inventors: Samuel A. Gould, Kellen Carey, Michael John Caelwaerts, Gareth J. Mueckl, Christopher S. Hoppe, Benjamin T. Jones

Patent number: 11848579Abstract: A data logger device for a power tool including a housing, a power tool interface provided at the top of the housing and configured to be received in a corresponding interface of the power tool, and a battery pack interface provided at the bottom of the housing and configured to receive a corresponding interface of a battery pack providing operating power to the power tool. The data logger also includes a tool terminal block, a battery terminal block provided, and bus bars connecting the tool terminal block to the battery terminal block to provide pass through power from the battery pack to the power tool. The data logger is configured to obtain data related to power tool operation, and export, using a transceiver, the data to a user device.Type: GrantFiled: January 10, 2020Date of Patent: December 19, 2023Assignee: Milwaukee Electric Tool CorporationInventors: John W. Thiele, Richard A. Zainer, Matthew Post, Gareth Mueckl, Jonathan E. Abbott, Matthew N. Thurin, Kellen Carey

Publication number: 20220299964Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for a power tool in control of a vacuum. In response to activation input, the power tool controls a motor for driving power tool operation and wirelessly transmits a control signal to a vacuum. In response to receiving the control signal, the vacuum controls a motor for driving operation of the vacuum. The power tool, the vacuum, or both include a wireless communication pairing butting for paring the power tool and the vacuum. The power tool and/or the vacuum may be cordless and powered by a battery pack.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 10, 2022Publication date: September 22, 2022Inventors: Matthew Post, Kellen Carey, Gareth Mueckl, Jeremy R. Ebner, Tauhira Hoossainy
