  • Publication number: 20180133872
    Abstract: An electric power tool includes a wireless module, a controller, a stage-selection module, a trigger switch, a driver and a driving motor. The method for operating the electric power tool includes steps of receiving a wireless signal from the outside via the wireless module, wherein the wireless signal includes a plurality of control parameters; storing the control parameters into the memory; upon receiving a stage-selection signal, extracting a control parameter in accordance with the stage-selection signal from the memory; upon receiving a triggering signal, outputting a control signal to the driver so as to drive the driving motor, wherein the control signal is output based on a torque value of at least one control parameter which is corresponding to the stage-selection signal. It allows a user to change the settings of the electric power tool via wireless communication, thereby increasing the flexibility of using the electric power tool.

  • Publication number: 20110203819
    Abstract: A power tool includes a detecting member mounted in an output end of a housing, and a to-be-detected member mounted in a driver. When the driver is assembled with the output end of the housing, the detecting member will detect the to-be-detected member and transmit a signal to a torque adjustment unit disposed in the housing so as to enable the torque adjustment unit to automatically adjust the torque applied to the driver to reach a predetermined value, thereby preventing damage to the driver.

  • Patent number: 7621177
    Abstract: An attached tire pressure sensor and air nozzle assembly includes an air nozzle for installation in the rim of a vehicle wheel, an attached tire pressure sensor threadedly coupled with the air nozzle for sensing the tire pressure of the vehicle wheel, and an anti-loosing device sandwiched between the air nozzle and the attached tire pressure sensor. The anti-loosing device has a rigid base stopped against the air nozzle, and a curved spring washer stopped against the attached tire pressure sensor to provide a spring force to the air nozzle and the attached tire pressure for preventing the attached tire pressure sensor from loosing from the air nozzle upon receiving vibration or accidental impact of the vehicle wheel during running of the vehicle.
