An electric working machine in one aspect of the present disclosure includes: a motor; a controller for controlling driving of the motor; a first setter; and a second setter. The first setter is operated for setting, as a control method for the motor, which is usable by the controller, one of control methods preliminarily registered. The second setter is operated for setting, as a control method for the motor, which is usable by the controller, at least one of the control methods settable via the first setter.

An electric working machine in one aspect of the present disclosure includes: a motor, a manipulator, a setter, and a controller. The setter sets first control characteristics preliminarily registered. The first control characteristics are set to achieve a rotational speed of the motor from a minimum rotational speed to a maximum rotational speed with a manipulating range of the manipulator, which is 50% or less of an effective manipulating range thereof.

A hand-held driver device, comprising a solid impact body, configured to provide a user a surface for driving fasteners, an adjustable strap attached to a top surface of the solid impact body for retaining the solid impact body on the user's hand, a pair of inextensible rings attached to the adjustable strap, the pair of inextensible rings laterally opposed to each other and configured to provide a secure attachment point between the adjustable strap and the solid impact body, an adjustment device attached to the adjustable strap for modifying the length of the adjustable strap, an insulating surface integral to the top surface of the solid impact body, which is configured to conform to the shape of the user's hand and provide impact protection to the user's hand during use of the hand-held driver device, and a sacrificial bottom surface integral to the solid impact body, which is configured to make contact with the fasteners.

A rotary power tool comprises a drive mechanism including an electric motor and a transmission, a housing enclosing at least a portion of the drive mechanism, a spindle rotatable in response to receiving torque from the drive mechanism, a first ratchet coupled for co-rotation with the spindle, a second ratchet rotationally fixed to the housing, a sleeve bushing supported by the housing, and a bearing rotatably supporting the spindle. The spindle has an outer race. And, the outer race of the bearing moves along the sleeve bushing during reciprocation of the spindle when the first ratchet and second ratchet are engaged.

A rotary power tool comprises a drive mechanism including an electric motor and a transmission, a housing enclosing at least a portion of the drive mechanism, a spindle rotatable in response to receiving torque from the drive mechanism, a first ratchet coupled for co-rotation with the spindle, a second ratchet rotationally fixed to the housing, a sleeve bushing on an interior of the housing, and a bearing arranged between the spindle and the sleeve bushing and rotatably supporting the spindle. The bearing has an outer race. The spindle is movable relative to the housing in response to contact with a workpiece, causing the first and second ratchets to engage and the spindle to reciprocate while rotating. The outer race of the bearing moves along the sleeve bushing during reciprocation of the spindle when the first ratchet and second ratchet are engaged.

A hand tool may include a head, a handle and one or more instances of an adjustable weight. The head may include a bell and a face for delivering an impact. The handle may be operably coupled to the head and extend linearly away from the head along an axis. The adjustable weight may be positionable on the head and/or the handle at a selected one of a plurality of different locations relative to the axis such that the hand tool is configurable to adjust both a striking power and a swinging balance of the hand tool.

A prior art powered wrist pin knocker is improved with a new plunger that prevents wobbling. The new plunger responds to a return vacuum pressure. The improved plunger is symmetrical along a longitudinal axis. New embodiments include a new side mount valve head to reduce length, a remote air controller and a variable length cylinder for the cannon. The new valve head is a simplified valve head assembly that adapts to an end of the cannon mount or a side mount or a remote mount. Another embodiment provides a stand for a surface mount application. This embodiment can have an extended piston for loosening tail bearings down a long channel. A manual return embodiment can use a rod to manually return the plunger to the proximal end for another firing cycle.

A power tool communication system including an external device including a first controller configured to transmit, via wireless communication to a power tool, configuration data including a work light duration parameter value and a work light brightness parameter value. The power tool includes a housing, a brushless direct current (DC) motor, a trigger, a work light, a wireless communication circuit configured to wirelessly communicate with the external device to receive the configuration data, and a second controller configured to control a work light duration of the work light based on the work light duration parameter value, and control a work light brightness of the work light based on the work light brightness parameter value.

Adjustable weight striking device can be selectively loaded with weighting material to temporarily increase striking force during use and unloaded to reduce weight while carrying. The tool has body made of low density material and working end for striking tool, handle extending from the body made of low density material, striking tool at working end, and apparatus for holding weighting material adjacent to the body. The weight holding apparatus can be platform with straps or other securing feature for temporarily holding weighting material and/or an interior chamber within the body for receiving weighting material. Weighting material can be sand, water, dirt, gravel, rock, or metal and can temporarily increase the weight of the striking tool by 50%, 100%, 200% 250%, 300%, 400%, 500% or more depending on volume and/or density of weighting material as compared to striking device.
