A power tool includes a tool head having a working element and a powerhead configured to provide power to the working element. The powerhead includes a fluid tank configured to hold a combustible fuel and defines an initial internal volume having an internal pressure. A diaphragm is formed of a flexible material and forms at least a portion of the fluid tank. The diaphragm moves from an unexpanded state to an expanded state when a temperature of the combustible fuel increases above a threshold value. Movement of the diaphragm to the expanded state increases the internal volume of the fluid tank to allow the internal pressure of the fluid tank to remain approximately constant.

A lubricant supply member of a linear guide includes a first recessed part formed above a guide rail, a pair of second recessed parts formed at both left and right side-surface positions of the guide rail, and protrusions slidable on rail side raceway surfaces of the guide rail. A lubricating unit includes a first cylindrical part, arranged in the first recessed part, to allow the first recessed part to move in a vertical direction of the slider, and to press the first recessed part to a widthwise outside of the slider, and a pair of second cylindrical parts, arranged in the pair of second recessed parts, to allow the pair of second recessed parts to move in a width direction of the slider, and to press the pair of second recessed parts in the vertical direction of the slider, respectively.

In a drive device, a pump includes a pump room in a housing, a suction port through which oil is to be sucked into the pump room, and a discharge port through which the oil is to be discharged from the pump room. The housing includes an inner lid that holds a bearing journaling a motor shaft and covers one side in an axial direction of a stator, an outer lid that is attached to one side in the axial direction of the inner lid and covers one side in the axial direction of the motor shaft, and a suction oil passage connecting a lower region in a vertical direction in an accommodation portion and the suction port. At least a portion of the suction oil passage is between the inner lid and the outer lid. The inner lid includes an opening penetrating the inner lid and connecting the lower region in the vertical direction and a portion of the suction oil passage between the inner lid and the outer lid. The strainer is provided in the opening.

A drive device includes a rotor, a stator, a housing including an accommodation portion to store oil and accommodate the rotor and the stator, a pump driven through a motor shaft, and a valve in the housing. The pump includes a pump room in the housing, a suction port through which the oil is to be sucked into the pump room, and a discharge port through which the oil is to be discharged from the pump room. The housing includes a first oil passage connected to the discharge port and a branch oil passage that is connected to the first oil passage and is open to an inside of the accommodation portion on an upper side in a vertical direction of the stator. The motor shaft includes a second oil passage located in the motor shaft and connected to the first oil passage and a first through-hole connecting the second oil passage and an outer circumferential surface of the motor shaft. The valve is provided in the branch oil passage, and switched between a closed state in which a flow of the oil in the branch oil passage is blocked and an open state in which the flow of the oil in the branch oil passage is permitted.
