| 20080210076 | STUD PUNCH - A stud punch head for a power tool includes a head housing and a first arm movably coupled to the head housing. The first arm supports a punch. The stud punch head also includes a second arm movably coupled to the head housing and relative to the first arm. The second arm supports a die opposite the punch. The stud punch head also includes a drive mechanism positioned at least partially within the head housing and operatively coupled to a motor of the power tool. The drive mechanism is operable to move the first arm and the second arm toward and away from each other. | 09-04-2008 |
| 20080219790 | CONDUIT REAMER TOOL ELEMENT - A conduit reamer for a cutting tool includes a generally cylindrical body having a longitudinal axis and a blade coupled to the generally cylindrical body. The blade includes a first blade portion defining a first height of the conduit reamer with respect to the longitudinal axis and a second blade portion defining a second height of the conduit reamer with respect to the longitudinal axis, wherein the first height is different than the second height. The conduit reamer further includes a shank end having a shank configured to be received and driven by the cutting tool, a bit end opposite the shank end and having a cavity configured to receive a tool bit, and a locking mechanism positioned proximate the bit end and configured to secure the tool bit within the cavity. | 09-11-2008 |
| 20090028653 | AC/DC MAGNETIC DRILL PRESS - A drill press includes a housing and a motor assembly, with a motor carriage attached to the housing. The motor assembly includes an electric motor and drill bit, and the motor carriage is operable for moving the motor assembly relative to the housing. A base, coupled to a portion of the housing, is operable for magnetically coupling the tool to a workpiece. The drill press also includes a DC power source and an AC power input for providing power to the motor. A power supply switching unit, electrically coupled to DC power source and the AC power input, selectively electrically couples the motor with one of the DC power source and the AC power input for providing power to the motor. | 01-29-2009 |
| 20090031865 | POWER TOOL, BATTERY, CHARGER AND METHOD OF OPERATING THE SAME - A power tool includes a housing assembly having a first housing portion and a second housing portion supported for pivoting movement relative to the first housing portion about a pivot axis. The first housing portion supports a motor. The second housing portion includes a chuck for supporting a tool element. The power tool also includes a gear supported within the housing assembly for rotation relative to at least one of the first and second housing portions about the pivot axis. The gear is operable to transfer drive force from the motor to the tool element. | 02-05-2009 |
| 20090194923 | PIPE STAND WITH ACCESSORIES - A pipe stand able to support a conduit includes a table having a first surface, supports pivotably coupled to the table for supporting the table in an elevated position with respect to the support surface, and a shelf extending between the supports and positioned between the table and the support surface. At least one of the supports includes an electrical connector, and a power cord is in electrical communication with the electrical connector and connectable to an external power source. The pipe stand includes a first jaw extending from the first surface of the table and shaped to engage a portion of the conduit, and a second jaw a second jaw extending from the first surface of the table and spaced a distance from the first jaw, the second jaw shaped to engage another portion of the conduit. A clamping device is supported by one of the first jaw and the second jaw. The clamping device includes a cord removeably coupled to the table and engageable with the conduit and a winch for biasing the cord with respect to the conduit. | 08-06-2009 |
