A vibration float tool comprising a float pad, an enclosed vibrating component affixed to the top of the float pad, a switch affixed to a battery used for activating and deactivating the enclosed vibrating component, a handle affixed to a surface of the enclosed vibrating component and the battery is used for powering the enclosed vibrating component wherein the battery attached to the handle. A method of using the vibrating float tool to level and settle a semi-liquid construction substrate, comprising activating the enclosed vibrating component with the switch, applying the float pad of the vibrating float tool across the semi-liquid construction substrate, leveling the surface of the semi-liquid construction substrate and setting the semi-liquid construction substrate.

A portable backpack-borne power unit used for concrete vibration and consolidation, that is switchable between left-handed and right-handed applications. The power unit can transmit motor-generated power to a variety of tools with various power cables known in the art. For concrete vibration, power is transmitted to a vibrator that is immersed within green concrete. The instant design enables the power connection at the power unit to be secured on either side of the backpack, effectively facilitating either left-handed or right-handed operation.

A stand-alone motor unit includes a base having a first side and a second side adjacent the first side, an electric motor arranged in the base and including an output shaft, a power take-off shaft receiving torque from the motor and protruding from the second side of the base, a battery pack, and a battery module removably coupled to the base. The battery module includes a side wall and a battery receptacle for receiving the battery pack for providing power to the motor when the battery module is coupled to the base. The battery module is configured to be coupled to the base in a first position, in which the side wall of the battery module is parallel with the second side of the base, and in a second position, in which the side wall is perpendicular to the second side of the base.

An automatic vibrator assembly includes a single vibrator mechanism or first and second vibrator mechanisms connected to first and second switch assemblies that are all housed with a case that attaches between a concrete finishing tool float and adaptor using industry standard bolt layouts. The vibrator mechanisms propel the float when the switch assemblies recognize a predetermined amount of forward and backward float tilt. Where the assembly uses two vibrator mechanisms or a single bidirectional vibrator assembly, the vibrator mechanisms can propel the float in different directions depending on the direction of tilt. Additional features include a variable speed controller, master switch for operating in automatic or manual mode, and docks that accommodate one or two removable batteries.

Bi-directional motor (36) for gas engine replacement device (10). One embodiment provides a gas engine replacement device (10) including a housing (14), a battery receptacle (54), a motor (36), a power take-off shaft (38) receiving torque from the motor (36), a power switching network (310) configured to selectively provide power to the motor (36), and an electronic processor (302) coupled to the power switching network (310). The electronic processor (302) is configured to rotate the motor (36) in a first direction and receive an input to switch a rotation direction of the motor (36). The electronic processor is also configured to control the power switching network (310) to stop the motor (36) and rotate the motor (36) in a second direction after controlling the power switching network (310) to stop the motor (36).

A rammer includes: an outer cylinder (31); an inner cylinder (32) slidably contacted with an inside of the outer cylinder (31); a slider (33) connected to a connecting rod (14) and slidably provided in the inner cylinder (32); a first coil spring (34) housed in the upper part of the inner cylinder (32); and a second coil spring (35) housed in the lower part of the inner cylinder (32), wherein the slider (33) is disposed between the first coil spring (34) and the second coil spring (35), wherein a crank shaft has a rotational axis disposed orthogonally to the moving direction, and the first coil spring (34) and the second coil spring (35) have respectively different winding directions to each other.

A vibratory handle for use with a surface finishing float, the vibratory handle including a first end having a bore for receiving a first float attachment screw therein for attaching the first end to the finishing float. The vibratory handle further including a second end having an oblong slot for receiving a second float attachment screw therein for attaching the second end to the finishing float such that the first float attachment screw and second float attachment screw are in operative alignment and spaced apart a distance along a surface the float. The vibratory handle also includes a gripping portion extending between the first end and second end.

A vibrating float including an elongate plate, having a substantially planar lower surface configured to be moved across the concrete; a plurality of evenly spaced electric motors coupled to the elongate plate and configured to vibrate the plate; and a handle, coupled to the elongate plate, for use by an operator to control movement of the vibrating float.

A hand-held power tool has a lower mass and an upper mass. The lower mass has a tool and a working device for causing the tool to effect a work movement. The upper mass is movable relative to the lower mass and has a drive motor for the working device. A first vibration decoupling device is arranged between the lower mass and the upper mass for decoupling the upper mass from the lower mass in terms of vibration. A guide drawbar guides is provided for guiding the work tool by an operator. An electrical energy storage provides electrical energy for starting the drive motor. A drawbar carrier is carried by the upper mass and is connected to the upper mass via a second vibration decoupling device. The the guide drawbar is attached to the drawbar carrier, and the energy storage is carried by the drawbar carrier.
