Thilo HAMMERS has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 11338425
    Abstract: Control method for a dust extraction module (2) for a chiseling tool (5), including the following steps: using a fan (18) of the dust extraction module (2) to draw in an air flow Q from a certain place of a substrate (31) being worked by the tool (5), using a material detector (24) to identify the material M at the place of the substrate being worked by the tool (5), and adapting the suction power of the dust extraction module (2) as a function of the identified material M in order to set the air flow Q. The air flow Q is greater than or equal to a rated value Qo in the case of an iron-free mineral material M1, whereas the air flow Q is less than the rated value Qo in the case of a material M2 containing iron.

  • Patent number: 10906166
    Abstract: A control method for a bore-chiseling portable power tool for machining a substrate by a drill bit includes superimposing a periodic striking on the drill bit at an impact rate and a rotating of the tool holder at a rotational speed in a rotational direction, identifying a material of the substrate being machined by the drill bit by a sensor, adjusting the rotational speed and/or the rotational direction to a first rotational speed and a first rotational direction when the identified material is an iron-based material, and adjusting the rotational speed and/or the rotational direction to a second rotational speed and a second rotational direction when the identified material is a mineral material. The first rotational speed is less than the second rotational speed and the first rotational direction is counter-clockwise and the second rotational direction is clockwise.
