Abstract: The present invention is directed at a handheld power tool comprising means for receiving a tool accessory; means for rotating said tool accessory; and at least one quick connect means for use with power tool attachments.

Abstract: The invention is directed at a portable tool case and workstation comprising storage means for housing tools; and at least one workstation attachment, stored with the tool case; wherein the at least one workstation attachment cooperates with the tool case to provide a portable workstation to a user.

Abstract: A point-of-sale security system is provided herein. The security system includes a container for containing the product and a holder assembly, the holder assembly including a cap for closing the container. The holder assembly and the container are operatively coupled together by means of cooperative members. The cooperative members being configured in a special way, i.e., when an associated stop member is enabled, the cooperative members prevent decoupling of the holder assembly from the container, and when the stop member is disabled, the cooperative members enable decoupling of the holder assembly from the container.

Abstract: A tool (1) has a distal operative portion and a proximal shank (2) with a mounting portion (3), for mounting the tool in a holder (10). A substancial portion of the mounting portion has a cross-sectional shape with at least one and fewer than six 60-degree segments thereof having segment ends joined by a flat surface (5). The holder has a distal axial aperture or mounting hole (12) for receiving the tool (1), the aperture having a cross-sectional shape which has 60-degree segments thereof having segment ends joined by a flat surface (13), but no more such flat surface segments than those corresponding to flat surface segments of the tool. The holder further has a ball-detent (21) mechanism or other locking mechanism for engaging the mounting portion (3) of the tool (1).

Abstract: A chuck for retaining the shank of a tool bit or accessory, having a fixed diameter, inserted in a central channel at a distal end of said chuck, comprising at least one torsion spring mounted axially within a housing and having an inner dimension and shape comparable to said shank's outer dimension and shape, and mechanical means for winding and unwinding said torsion spring to respectively grip or release said shank, said winding being in a rotational direction consistent with a normal operating rotational direction of said chuck such that said shank tends to further wind said torsion spring for further self-tightening in normal operation.

Abstract: A tool holder comprising an elongated connector means having a first end and a second end, where the elongated connector means has a central longitudinal hole, of a cross-section corresponding to a cross-section of a mounting portion of the tool bit, at the first end, and a tool mount at the second end, and a first sleeve arranged to reciprocally slide over the connector means between a first end position and a second end position, the first sleeve having a third end facing the tool bit and a fourth end facing the hand tool.
