An electro-hydraulic pump for hydrodynamic compression tools which comprises a pump housing carrying an electric motor and a hydrodynamic group for pressurizing a hydraulic liquid, a control circuit for controlling the electric motor, a flexible pressure hose connected to the hydrodynamic group, and a work head of the tool to communicate the hydraulic liquid pressure to the work head. A flexible control cable connects the control circuit in the pump housing to a hand held remote control. The hand held remote control comprises an actuating button for starting the electric motor and a button for selecting an operation mode of the electro-hydraulic pump from a plurality of pre-set operation modes, as well as a multifunction display which shows the selected operation mode.

A hydrodynamic compression tool comprises an electrical motor, which can be powered by a control circuit, a hydraulic pump which can be actuated by the motor so as to increase the pressure of a hydraulic liquid acting on an actuating piston, two jaws, which can be mutually moved by the actuating piston between an open position and a closed position for carrying out the compression or the cut, an actuating button, which acts on a switch of the control circuit to actuate the motor, a return device which returns the jaws to the open position by a return of the hydraulic fluid from the actuating piston towards the hydraulic pump through a return valve, and a mechanism for delaying the opening of the return valve via the return device, so as to allow verification of the position of the jaws before the return of the jaws to the open position.

A shearing tool includes a drive device and a shearing assembly. The drive device includes a housing and an output member linearly movable relative to the housing along a drive axis. The shearing assembly includes a frame coupled to the housing, a blade pivotally coupled to the frame, and a linkage assembly interconnecting the output member and the blade. The blade is pivotable relative to the frame about a pivot axis in response to movement of the output member along the drive axis.

A method for operating an electromechanical or electrohydraulic working device or rescue device is performed by an operator person and can be used autonomously. The working/rescue device includes a cutting tool having two cutting tool halves movable toward and away from one another and define a virtual cutting plane by their movement. The working/rescues device includes a housing; an electric motor; a pump or mechanical transmission, each driven by the electric motor for actuating the tool insert. An exchangeable rechargeable electrical energy source is in/on a device side of the working/rescue device and includes a housing. During operation of the working/rescue device, orientation of the working/rescue device is sensed and the relationship between the angular position of the working/rescue device cutting plane and the force applied by the cutting tool to the object to be cut is established and the working/rescue device is controlled in dependence on the relationship.

An example shearing head includes a first member and a second member being rotatable about a pin. The first member has a shearing surface forming a substantially right angle with a first lateral surface of the first member. The second member has a shearing surface forming a substantially right angle with a second lateral surface of the second member. The second member includes a first distal surface and a second distal surface forming a substantially right angle. The first distal surface and the second distal surface are substantially perpendicular to the second lateral surface. The second member includes a third lateral surface opposing the second lateral surface and a retainer is attached to the second member. A first surface of the retainer contacts the first distal surface, a second surface of the retainer contacts the second distal surface, and the third lateral surface contacts a third surface of the retainer.

A remotely controlled cutting tool for safely cutting electrified cables using a remote control and a method of setting up and operating the remotely controlled cutting tool and remote control.

A cutting head for a hydraulic power tool includes a first jaw that includes a first ear configured with a slot for receiving a corresponding ear. The second jaw includes a second ear with a third ear bore that aligns in between a first ear bore and to a second ear bore of the first ear when the second ear is coupled in the slot of the first ear. The cutting head further includes a spring-biased flange coupled to a blade mounted to the first jaw and a retained coupled at a fixed position to a blade mounted to the second jaw. The retainer is configured to receive the flange during a cutting action such that the flange prevents the blades from shifting out of alignment during the cutting action.

A powered threaded rod cutter configured to perform a cutting operation on a threaded rod includes a first cutting die and a second cutting die, at least the first cutting die including a recess in which a first portion of the threaded rod is at least partly receivable, an electric motor, and a planetary transmission positioned downstream of the electric motor. The powered threaded rod cutter additionally includes a drivetrain for converting a rotational output of the planetary transmission to a pivoting movement of the second cutting die, and a guide against which a second portion of the threaded rod may contact to support the threaded rod to be perpendicular relative to the second cutting die prior to the cutting operation.

A power tool includes a cutting unit configured to perform a cutting action, and a cutting action input unit configured to turn the cutting action on and off. The cutting action input unit is configured to, when the cutting action input unit is turned on, cause the cutting unit to move in a direction of an end position of the cutting action, and when the cutting action input unit is turned off, cause the cutting unit to stop moving in a case where the cutting action has not ended at a time when the cutting action input unit is turned off, and move in a direction of a standby position at which the cutting unit was located prior to a start of the cutting action in a case where the cutting action has ended at the time when the cutting action input unit is turned off.
