An electronic switch module for a power tool is provided including a housing, a trigger moveable relative to the housing, a magnet being moveable relative to the housing with the trigger along a movement axis, and a linear hall sensor fixed relative to the housing and intersecting the movement axis of the magnet. The linear hall sensor magnetically detects a linear position of the magnet along the movement axis and outputs a voltage signal based on the detected linear position.

A portable power tool includes an electromotive drive with an output shaft defining a first axis and having a first end portion and a second opposite end portion. The first end portion is between a mounted machining tool and the second end portion. The electromotive drive is received in a first power tool housing portion and includes a stator having a first stator end defining a first plane and a second stator end defining a second plane, the first plane is located between the first end portion and the second plane. A second power tool housing portion defines a handle gripping portion with a first surface defining a third plane which intersects the output shaft at a location whereat the first plane is between the third plane and the second plane. A second surface portion opposite the first surface portion defines a fourth plane parallel to the third plane.

A battery pack and charger platform including a voltage coupling circuit comprising an input that receives an input voltage and an output that sends an output voltage, a voltage monitoring circuit having an input coupled to the voltage coupling circuit output and an output, and a power source having an input coupled to the voltage monitoring circuit output, the power source input receives an input voltage representative of a charge instruction.

Systems and methods of operating power tools. The method includes receiving a command to start a recording mode at a first electronic processor of a first power tool, and receiving at the first electronic processor, a measured parameter from a sensor of the first power tool while a first motor of the first power tool is operating. The method also includes generating a recorded motor parameter by recording the measured parameter, on a first memory of the first power tool, when the first power tool operates in the recording mode, and transmitting, with a first transceiver of the first power tool, the recorded motor parameter. The method further includes receiving the recorded motor parameter at an external device, transmitting the recorded motor parameter to a second power tool via the external device, and receiving the recorded motor parameter via a second transceiver of the second power tool.

A torque transmission mechanism transmits a torque produced by a rotation of a driving shaft to an output shaft. A clutch mechanism is provided between a motor and the torque transmission mechanism. The torque transmission mechanism includes a magnet coupling including a driving magnet member coupled to the driving shaft side and a driven magnet member coupled to the output shaft side. The driving magnet member and the driven magnet member are arranged such that magnetic surfaces on each of which S-pole magnets and N-pole magnets are alternately arranged face other. The clutch mechanism transmits the torque produced by the rotation of the driving shaft to the driving magnet member but does not transmit a torque the driving magnet member receives from the driven magnet member to the driving shaft.

An impact tool includes an impact assembly and a housing. The impact assembly is used for applying an impact force to an output shaft and includes a main shaft driven by a drive shaft, an impact block connected to the main shaft, and a hammer anvil mating with and struck by the impact block. A motor is at least partially accommodated in the housing. A length L from a rear end of the housing to a front end of the output shaft is greater than or equal to 78 mm and less than or equal to 97 mm and an outer circumferential diameter D of the housing is less than or equal to 60 mm.

A system is provided with a set of removable battery packs and a set of power tools each including a motor, a controller, and a battery receiving portion. For each power tool, the controller is configured to identify a type of battery pack coupled to the battery receiving portion and limit a maximum amount of electric current drawn from the battery pack by the motor based on the identified type of the battery pack. The greater a ratio of an impedance of the motor to an impedance of the battery pack, the less the controller limits the maximum amount of electric current drawn from the battery pack such that for a given battery pack of the set of removable battery packs, the lower the impedance of the motor, the more current the motor draws from the given battery pack.
