  • Patent number: 11469645
    Abstract: A power tool includes an electric motor having an output shaft, a transmission having a transmission housing, a spindle rotatable in response to receiving torque from the transmission and a pinion coupled to the output shaft. The pinion includes a bushing portion, a toothed portion for driving the transmission, and a cylindrical portion between the bushing portion and the toothed portion. The power tool further comprises a fan coupled to the bushing portion of the pinion and a bearing arranged between the cylindrical portion and the transmission housing for rotatably supporting the pinion and the output shaft.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 21, 2019
    Date of Patent: October 11, 2022
    Assignee: MILWAUKEE ELECTRIC TOOL CORPORATION

  • Patent number: 10213885
    Abstract: A drill press includes a main housing, a drill unit supported by the main housing for relative movement therewith, and a magnetic base for coupling the drill press to a ferromagnetic workpiece. The magnetic base includes a ferromagnetic body having spaced, substantially parallel first and second rails. Each of the first and second rails includes a flat bottom surface engageable with the ferromagnetic workpiece. A coil is positioned between the first and second rails for generating a holding force on the ferromagnetic workpiece. The coil defines a central axis that is parallel with the bottom surface of each of the first and second rails.
