The invention relates to a device, a method and an assembly of parts produced by cutting in a block B of metal or composite material, following a determined trajectory. The device comprises a guide (3) forming said trajectory and a support (chain 9) mounted in the guide in a sliding manner, comprising a lateral blank (23) provided with at least one cutting plate (24) comprising a protruding cutting edge (25) arranged so as to carry out the cutting in a normal direction (26) in relation to the blank.

The present disclosure provides chain guards for chain saws attached to the end of a long reach pole. The chain guards include a chip deflector and a deflector cover that deflects and channels wood chips away from an operator. The chip deflector includes one or more curved surfaces configured to deflect the wood chips out of the chain guard and away for the operator while minimizing binding of the wood chips with the chain.

A method and system automatically determine cleaning, maintenance and/or repair information for a motor-driven treatment tool, wherein the treatment tool comprises a residue, able to be detected externally optically, caused during the operation of the treatment tool. The method involves the steps of: optically detecting the residue; classing the detected residue in accordance with a type of the residue; determining the cleaning, maintenance and/or repair information based on the classing; and outputting the determined cleaning, maintenance and/or repair information.

A multi-functional tool that is particularly useful for in-field service and maintenance of a chainsaw, the tool having a handle section and a head section, wherein the handle section includes a plurality of tubular openings adapted to receive a multiplicity of repair tools, such as a chain file, depth gauge, screwdriver, wrench tool, etc., without requiring the removal of all other tools. The head section includes a pair of spaced-apart spikes to allow the tool to be secured to a wooden structure, such as a tree stump and a clamp to secure the chainsaw while service or maintenance is performed. The multi-functional chainsaw field maintenance tool further includes a device to facilitate transport of the multi-functional tool, such as a belt clip, shoulder strap or magnetic attachment device.

A gardening and/or forestry system includes a distance measuring system, including a first distance part and a second distance part, wherein the second distance part is configured to be carried on a body of a gardener and/or forestry worker. The distance measuring system is configured to exchange a measuring signal between the first distance part and the second distance part and to measure a distance between the first distance part and the second distance part based on the exchanged measuring signal. An output device is configured to output information based on the measured distance to the gardener and/or forestry worker.

An outdoor tool includes a powerhead, a tool unit powered by the powerhead, and a shaft assembly extending between the powerhead and the tool unit. The tool unit includes a transmission housing, a support plate, a guide bar adjustably supported by the support plate, a drive gear, and a chain circumscribing a portion of the drive gear and a portion of the guide bar, the drive gear operatively coupled to the powerhead. The tool unit further includes a tension adjustment mechanism for adjusting a position of the guide bar relative to the drive gear to increase and decrease a tension in the chain. The tension adjustment mechanism includes an adjustment screw, a threaded adjustment bolt, at least one adjustment gear, and a member coupled to the adjustment bolt and the guide bar. Rotation of the adjustment screw causes translation of the guide bar relative to the drive gear.

A chainsaw includes a housing including a handle housing portion, a motor housing portion, and a drive housing portion. The handle housing portion has a cavity extending along a longitudinal axis defining a first axis. A motor includes an output shaft having a longitudinal axis that defines a second axis. The chainsaw also includes a driven gear coupled to the output shaft, a sprocket coupled to the driven gear such that rotation of the driven gear rotates the sprocket, and a guide bar extending from the drive housing portion and having a longitudinal axis that defines a third axis of the chainsaw. The first and second axes define an included angle less than 75 degrees, the second and third axes define a second included angle between 110 degrees and 130 degrees, and the first and third axes define an external angle between 150 degrees and 170 degrees.

A method operates a device arranged on or in a mobile motor-driven processing device, wherein the device has an inertial sensor device with at least one inertial sensor formed for detecting an inertial variable and a control device. The method has the following steps: a) operating the inertial sensor device in a motion-monitoring operating mode to monitor whether the inertial variable or a variable based on the inertial variable fulfills the motion criterion, wherein the motion criterion is characteristic of a motion of the processing device, b) if the motion criterion is fulfilled, operating the inertial sensor device in a shock and/or impact-monitoring operating mode to monitor whether the inertial variable or a variable based on the inertial variable fulfills a shock and/or impact criterion, wherein the shock and/or impact criterion is characteristic of an atypical motion of the processing device, and c) if the shock and/or impact criterion is fulfilled, transmitting an information signal via the inertial sensor device and operating the control device as a function of the transmitted information signal.

An electric working machine may include: an electrical component; a first space in which the electrical component is disposed; a partition wall separating the first space from a second space different from the first space, the partition wall including a first communication opening communicating the first space and the second space; and a first one-way valve disposed at the first communication opening.
