The floor surfacing machine (1) also comprises a second motor (22) that is arranged to propel the satellite surfacing heads (19, 20, 21) such that the planetary head (15) and the satellite surfacing heads (19, 20, 21) are independently operable.

An accessory for coupling to an attachment mechanism of an oscillating power tool includes a working end, an opposite rear end, and a fitment portion adjacent the rear end portion. The fitment portion includes a central opening having a central portion and a rearward portion open to the rear end, and configured to receive a post of a tool clamping mechanism. The fitment portion further includes a first plurality of openings in communication with and extending radially outward from the central portion, a second plurality of openings not in communication with and positioned radially outward from the central portion. The central portion, the first plurality of openings, and the second plurality of openings are configured to couple the fitment portion to a plurality of different configurations of attachment mechanisms for oscillating power tools.

A hand-held power tool includes a housing, a filter support, a plurality of securing element, and an actuating unit. The filter support has receiving openings, at least one first fixing element, and at least one second fixing element. The receiving openings are configured to receive filter elements configured to seal the hand-held power tool against a penetration of dust into the housing of the hand-held power tool. First and second fixing elements are fixable to corresponding securing elements arranged on the hand-held power tool, and are configured to releasably fix the filter support to the housing. The actuation unit is actuatable to release the filter support from the hand-held power tool.

A jig assembly is disclosed herein for holding a mower blade and a grinding tool during a sharpening operation on the mower blade. The jig assembly includes a mast, a fixture portion, and a jig portion. The fixture portion and jog portion can be mounted to the mast. The jig portion can include an arm and a tool-seat. The arm can include at least a first link and a second link movable relative to one another. The first link can be pivotally connected to the mast with a first pin defining an arm pivot axis. The first link and the second link can be interconnected whereby the second link is prevented from rotating in any plane that contains the arm pivot axis. The tool-seat can be disposed on the second link.

The present invention relates to a floor surfacing machine (1) comprising a frame (2) that is carried by a first wheel (3) and a second wheel (4). The floor surfacing machine (1) further comprises a first motor (6), a handle arrangement (7), at least one planetary head (15) that is rotatably mounted to the frame (2) and at least one satellite surfacing head (19, 20, 21) that is rotatably mounted to the planetary head (15), where the first motor (6) is arranged to propel the planetary head (15). The floor surfacing machine (1) comprises a first control unit (10), and a remote control panel (11) which in turn comprises a second control unit (12) that is arranged to communicate with the first control unit (10). The floor surfacing machine (1) also comprises a second motor (22) that is arranged to propel the satellite surfacing heads (19, 20, 21) such that the planetary head (15) and the satellite surfacing heads (19, 20, 21) are independently operable.

A one-way clutch is provided at the end of the rotary shaft of the hydraulic pump, which can receive the rotary shaft of the drive unit. The one-way clutch has spring-urged rollers, balls or sprags, which are urged by springs, and which are brought into direct contact with the drive shaft of the drive unit when the drive shaft of the drive unit is received in the one-way clutch.

A walk-behind apparatus and method for cutting non-linear trenches in concrete includes a frame supported by fixed direction wheels at a front end on a fixed axis of rotation, and multi-directional wheels at a rear end to rotate on movable axes of rotation, to permit the frame to rotate about a vertical axis passing through the frame. A handle is engageable by a user walking behind the frame for pushing the apparatus forward and/or for steering. A cutting wheel has a diameter of 5-20 inches and a cutting portion having a width of 0.5-1.5 inches. The cutting rotates on an axis parallel to the fixed axis and which extends notionally through the fixed direction wheels. The cutting wheel is disposed within a protective shroud viewable by the user to permit the user to visually align and guide the cutting wheel along a non-linear path on the ground while steering.

A handheld machine tool comprises a machine tool main body and a tool part. The machine tool main body comprises a circular shaft, a grip portion and a convex portion. The circular shaft is a cylindrical shape and has a convex shaft disposed at the bottom. The tool part is connected to the machine tool main body through the convex shaft. The grip portion and the convex portion are disposed on a side of the circular shaft. The handheld machine tool further comprises a first button and a second button. The first button is located in an inertial direction of rotation of the machine tool main body during operation. When a user keeps pressing the first button with the finger to drive the tool part to operate continuously, the machine tool main body pushes the first button to the finger pressed thereon along the inertia direction.
