  • Patent number: 11926028
    Abstract: A gas spring-powered fastener driver includes a cylinder, a moveable piston positioned within the cylinder, a driver blade attached to the piston and movable therewith between a ready position and a driven position, a lifter to move the driver blade from the driven position to the ready position, and a transmission including an output shaft operatively coupled to the lifter to provide torque to the lifter. The fastener driver also includes an input to provide torque to the transmission and a clutch positioned downstream of the input and operably coupled to the output shaft to limit an amount of torque transferred to the output shaft and the lifter. In response to an application of a reaction torque to the output shaft above a predetermined threshold, torque from the input is diverted from the output shaft via the clutch.

  • Publication number: 20010039496
    Abstract: A method for managing real estate brokerage referrals in which the referrals are made by a broker for residential real estate. A geographically categorized real estate list is created and reviewed by a potential tenant. From this list the potential tenant makes a selection of a desired apartment complex. An individual referral fee agreement is generated which is specific to the potential tenant and to the specific desired apartment complex. The agreement that is generated is provided to the potential tenant who delivers the agreement to the agent for the desired apartment complex for acceptance by that agent. A broker computer system stores a database of real estate rental listings and is programmed for generating an online brokerage referral fee agreement specific to the potential tenant and the apartment complex when the potential tenant makes a selection of a specific complex from a database.
