A blade attachment system includes a tool mount, a blade holder plate attached to the tool mount adapter; and a clamping assembly attached to the blade holder plate. The clamping assembly includes a plurality of fixed clamping positioned adjacent to at least one of the lateral edges of the blade when the blade is placed on the blade holder plate and including tapered surfaces configured to overlap the lateral edges of the blade and at least one movable clamping pin that is movably mounted to the blade holder plate, the movable clamping pin being configured to move with respect to the blade to move the lateral edges of the blade into engagement with the tapered surfaces of the clamping pins.

A blade attachment system includes a tool mount adapter for attaching the blade attachment system to a toolholder of an oscillating tool, a blade holder plate for supporting a blade, a clamping assembly for clamping the blade to the blade holder plate in a clamped position, and a locking mechanism for locking the blade in the clamped position.

A representative power tool has a spindle transmitting a motor driving force to a tool accessory, a tool accessory holding member movable between a holding position and a tool accessory releasing position, a lock mechanism movable between an engaging position for locking the tool accessory holding member in the holding position and a disengaging position for releasing the lock, an inner housing housed in a body housing and houses at least part of the lock mechanism, and an operation mechanism. The operation mechanism includes a handle part, a switching part that switches the lock mechanism between the engaging position and the disengaging position according to the handle part operation, and a switching connection part that is separated from the inner housing when the lock mechanism is placed in the engaging position and comes into contact with the inner housing when the lock mechanism is placed in the disengaging position.

A method and a hand-held device for derrnaplaning is disclosed that includes a blade assembly which includes a blade, a blade holder and a safety cage. In accordance with an important aspect of the invention, the safety cage limits the amount of penetration of the blade into the facial skin to enable the device to be safely used by non-professionals. The dermaplaning device includes a vibration generator that causes the blade to vibrate at a predetermined frequency. Various embodiments of the hand-held dermaplaning device are disclosed for vibrating the blade.

An oscillating drive for a power tool includes a wobble shaft located on a drive shaft of a motor for a power tool, and a wobble member rotatably supported on the wobble shaft. The wobble member includes a wobble drive structure that defines a drive axis. A tool driver includes a tool drive structure at one end that is coupled to the wobble drive structure and a tool holder configured to releasably retain an accessory tool. Rotation of the drive shaft causes the wobble shaft to wobble about an axis of the drive shaft. The tool driver holds the wobble member against the rotation of the wobble shaft such that the wobble member wobbles without rotating which results in an oscillating motion of the drive axis of the wobble member in a plane that is parallel to the axis of the drive shaft. The oscillating motion of the drive axis causes the tool driver to oscillate.
