Abstract: A system with an integrated internal battery, a removable battery, and a power management integrated circuit. The power management integrated circuit is configured to provide power to the image capture device from the removable battery; provide power to the image capture device from the integrated internal battery when the removable battery is disconnected from the image capture device or the removable battery does not have a sufficient charge to drive the image capture device; and recharge the integrated internal battery before the removable battery until the integrated internal battery has a sufficient charge to power the image capture device. The power is continuously supplied to the image capture device from the integrated internal battery while the removable battery is disconnected from the image capture device or does not have sufficient power to drive the image capture device.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for active watercraft monitoring.

Abstract: A self-counterboring screw-threaded headed fastener, for the threaded insertion into an underlying fixed support or substrate in order to fixedly secure a structural component, such as, for example, an insulated metal panel (IMP), to the underlying fixed support or substrate without the need for pre-drilling a bore within the insulated metal panel (IMP), in order to accommodate the screw-threaded head of the fastener, prior to the insertion of the screw-threaded fastener into and through the insulated metal panel (IMP) for fixation within and to the underlying fixed support or substrate, is disclosed. Cutting wrench or screw-gun sockets are also disclosed for similar purposes.

Abstract: A boat having a deck section, e.g., a forward deck, having an opening in which a pivotable seat assembly is located. The pivotable seat assembly includes a seat that mounted on a frame and is arranged to be pivoted from a closed position, wherein the back of the seat forms a hatch closing the opening in the deck section, to an open position wherein plural passengers can be seated on the seat in the deck section. The frame pivotably supports the seat. A hydraulic actuating system under electrical control is provided arranged to pivot the seat between its closed and open positions and vice versa.

Abstract: A cage and upper probe assembly for use in a fastener-driving tool includes a cage including a base and a plurality of generally normally extending arms configured for attachment to a valve sleeve, a probe configured for direct attachment to the cage and having at least one lobe formation for receiving a pusher rod, and the probe being attached to the cage so that impact of the pusher rod upon the probe is directly transmitted to the cage.

Abstract: A driver blade for use in a combustion-powered fastener-driving tool includes an elongate tubular body having a combustion end and a driving end, the combustion end being configured for attachment to a piston, and the driving end having a substantially solid cross-section. The tubular body is in fluid communication with a tool combustion chamber.

Abstract: A housing for a power tool includes a primary handle configured for accommodating a primary hand used to control the operation of the tool, the handle having a first end closer to a power source of the tool, and a second end distal of the power source, a secondary handle configured for accommodating a secondary hand, being associated with the distal end and defining a distal extremity of the tool offsetting the power source.

Abstract: A combustion tool having a gas actuated magazine advance includes a combustion chamber defined in part by a cylinder, a valve sleeve axially reciprocating relative to the cylinder and an upper surface of a piston, a pneumatically actuated magazine fastener mechanism, and an exhaust driven actuation feed tube having a first end configured for insertion into an opening in the cylinder in fluid communication with the combustion chamber and a second end connected to the magazine fastener advance mechanism.

Abstract: A housing for a power tool having a power source, includes a fuel cell chamber configured for attachment to the power source and dimensioned for operationally receiving a fuel cell in either one of a first orientation and a second orientation.
