Abstract: An anesthesia machine that integrates the presence and charge status of another medical device, such as a video laryngoscope, into the operation. The anesthesia machine communicates with the medical device to determine the presence and charge status and present this information to the user as part of the checkout procedure. A medical device holder is associated with the anesthesia machine to receive and charge the medical device. The medical device holder can include both a medical device charging holder and a battery charging holder that receives and charges a replacement battery. The medical device holder can communicate with the anesthesia machine to provide the charge and presence status of the medical device. During the checkout procedure for the anesthesia machine, the user can be presented with the presence and battery status information or could be prompted to manually enter this information into the anesthesia machine.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a device for mounting a breathing circuit in an anaesthesia machine. The device comprises: a baffle, which is arranged above the breathing circuit; a hanging member, which is arranged on the baffle and the breathing circuit, for hanging the breathing circuit onto the baffle; and a locking member, which is arranged on the breathing circuit or on the baffle, for locking the breathing circuit below the baffle, when the breathing circuit is hung in place.

Abstract: A hand-held power tool includes a housing having a motor provided therein, a cutting accessory coupled to the motor and means for selectively directing a flow of air toward a point of cut of the cutting accessory. The flow of air acts to remove debris at the point of cut to improve visibility of the workpiece.

Abstract: A rotary cutting tool includes a housing and a motor provided within the housing for rotating a cutting accessory coupled to the rotary cutting tool. The rotary cutting tool also includes a plurality of light emitting diodes for illuminating a point of cut of the rotary cutting tool. Each of the plurality of light emitting diodes have a central longitudinal axis, and at least one of the light emitting diodes is couple to the housing such that the central longitudinal axis of the light emitting diode is not parallel to a rotation axis of the cutting accessory.

Abstract: A hand-held power tool, such as a rotary cutting tool, allows for improved operator control and visibility. The power tool includes a housing and a motor provided in the housing. A cutting accessory is coupled to the motor and is adapted to cut a workpiece at a point of cut. At least one light emitting diode is coupled to the housing and configured to direct light toward the point of cut.

Abstract: A hand-held power tool, such as a spiral cutting tool, with improved operator control and visibility. The power tool includes a motor contained in a motor housing. The motor may be a variable speed motor controlled by a speed control user interface mounted on the housing. Each time a speed control button is actuated, the motor speed is changed. A display provides the operator of the tool with an indication of the motor speed selected. A detachable handle is provided with a moveable mechanism for easily, quickly, and securely attaching the handle to the housing and removing the handle therefrom with one hand. The detachable handle may include one or more storage compartments formed therein. The detachable handle includes a trigger switch mounted therein for operating the cutting tool motor. The trigger switch is mounted in the detachable handle in a position such that the switch is operated by the little finger and ring finger of an operator's hand.
