A power tool in which a tip end tool is driven by a motor to thereby perform a predetermined machining process on a workpiece, wherein the motor is a dual rotor motor comprising: an inner rotor; an outer rotor; and a stator including a driving coil mechanism, with the inner rotor and the outer rotor being coaxially disposed. | 10-31-2013 |
20130327554 | POWER TOOL - A power tool includes a chuck assembly having a driveline axis. A motor housing extends from an end cap portion to a drive end. The end cap portion includes an end cap bumper coupled to the end cap portion that extends radially outward with respect to the driveline axis. A handle extends from the motor housing along a handle axis and defines a battery receptacle. A mode selector ring is rotatably coupled to the housing assembly about the driveline axis between the chuck assembly and the motor housing drive end. The mode selector ring includes a drive end bumper extending radially outward with respect to the driveline axis. The power tool may rest upon a flat surface with only the end cap bumper and drive end bumper contacting the surface when a battery pack is inserted into the battery receptacle. | 12-12-2013 |

20140020917 | TILTABLE TOOL ASSEMBLY - A fluid-powered tool actuator usable with a vehicle having an arm and a rotation link for rotation of the tool actuator in a first plane and being laterally tiltable in a second transverse plane. In some embodiments pressurized fluid is communicated using distribution channels and passageways internal to the actuator to limit use of external hydraulic lines. In some embodiments the tool actuator has certain components in a compressive pre-loaded state to reduce their fatigure failure during operation of the tool actuator under load. | 01-23-2014 |
20140054055 | POWER TOOL HOUSING CONSTRUCTION - An apparatus is disclosed including a motor housing structured to receive at least a portion of an electric motor, a tool housing including a first half and a second half, wherein the tool housing defines an end taper, a tool attachment in mechanical communication with the electric motor, and a retention member including an inner taper structured to interface with the end taper of the tool housing to resist relative motion between the tool housing and the motor housing. | 02-27-2014 |
20140069672 | Power Tool - A power tool includes: a motor configured to be driven based on one of a plurality of drive modes; a mode section switch; a control portion. The control portion is configured to operate responsive to a first operation to assign one or more drive modes preselected from the plurality of drive modes to the mode selection switch. A second operation different from the first operation is capable of manipulating the mode selection switch to select one drive mode from the one or more preselected drive modes, the control portion being further configured to control the motor based on the one drive mode selected by the mode selection switch. | 03-13-2014 |
20140158390 | ELECTRIC TOOL - An electric tool including: a motor; a tip tool configured to be rotationally driven by the motor; and a control unit configured to control the rotation of the motor and including a microprocessor and a memory unit, wherein the memory unit is configured to store control information by learning a use state of the motor, and wherein the motor is configured to be driven according to the stored control information. | 06-12-2014 |
20140174775 | HAND-HELD POWER TOOL WITH TORQUE LIMITING UNIT - A hand-held power tool has a torque-limiting unit with which a maximum torque transferred from a motor output shaft to a tool driver is adjustable by an operator. The torque-limiting unit has a spring system with spring elements having substantially similar characteristics (such as length, compression forces, etc.) and yet generating different spring forces. | 06-26-2014 |
20140174776 | HANDHELD POWER TOOL HAVING A SHIFTABLE MECHANISM - A handheld power tool with a shiftable mechanism, which is adjustable between two operating positions, has a coupling spring that is coupled with an adjustable shifting member of the mechanism. The coupling spring is embodied as a metastable spring. | 06-26-2014 |
20140216774 | MECHANICAL ASSEMBLY FOR A POWER TOOL - A mechanical assembly for a power tool, and a power tool incorporating the mechanical assembly are provided. The mechanical assembly includes (i) a first member having a first axis and a first engagement portion inclined relative to the first axis, (ii) a second member having a second axis and a second engagement portion inclined relative to the second axis, wherein the first and second engagement portions engage each other by movement of the first and second members relative to each other in the direction of at least one of the axes; and wherein the first member is a ring gear and the second member is a central gear and the first and second engagement portions engage and disengage each other by movement of the second member within a space defined within the first member. | 08-07-2014 |
