A hand-held power tool includes a housing in which a drive unit and an impact-mechanism unit are arranged. The hand-held power tool further includes a tool-receiver interface configured to releasably connect with a tool receiver, the tool receiver configured as a stirrer-basket receiver. A user interface is configured to set at least one of a rotary-hammer mode and a stirring mode for the hand-held power tool.

A reciprocating tool includes a motor, a motion converting mechanism, a body housing, an inner housing, a support body, and a counterweight. The motion converting mechanism is operably coupled to a motor shaft and is configured to convert rotation into a linear reciprocating motion along a driving axis. The inner housing is within the body housing and houses at least a portion of the motion converting mechanism. The support body is originally separate from the inner housing and is attached to the inner housing in the body housing. The counterweight is operably coupled to the motion converting mechanism and is configured to be driven by the motion converting mechanism. The counterweight is supported by the support body to be pivotable around a pivot axis that extends in a direction orthogonal to the driving axis. At least a portion of the counterweight is housed in the inner housing.

A hand-held power tool has a tool holder for holding a tool along a working axis. A hammer mechanism has a striker that is moved periodically at an impact rate along the working axis between a turning point in the proximity of the tool and a turning point remote from the tool. A drive control of the hammer mechanism sets the impact rate to a set point value. A vibration absorber has an oscillator that moves along the working axis about a resting position and one or multiple springs that drive the oscillator back into the resting position. A first sensor is used to determine a phase of the motion of the striker. A sensor is used to determine a first phase of a compression point of the hammer mechanism. Another sensor is used to determine a second phase of a turning point in the proximity of the tool, of the hammer mechanism. A damping controller adapts the set point value in such a way that a phase difference between the first phase and the second phase is less than a threshold value.

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 demolition device support has an elongated body that includes a base frame, a base frame support member, and an upper support member. The base frame is fixedly attached to the base frame support member, which is pivotably connected to the upper support member by a hinge. A handle extension member is mounted at the upper end of the body, and includes a mount for receiving handlebar. A collar is mounted at the lower end of the body, and is configured to receive a portion of the housing of a demolition device. The demolition device support is used to support a demolition device in an ergonomic and efficient position during use of the demolition device.

A method of driving a rod into the ground comprises coupling an impact portion of an attachment to a powered hammer, positioning the rod between a first jaw of the attachment and a second jaw of the attachment, activating a first motor to move the first jaw toward the second jaw, such that the rod is clamped between the two jaws, and activating a second motor to drive an axial impact mechanism of the powered hammer to deliver repeated axial impacts to the impact portion of the attachment.

A hand-tool is provided for installing and removing a tire, comprising a substantially elongated body member having a longitudinal axis, the body member further comprising a handle portion (102); a first engagement portion (108), arranged at a first end of said handle portion, adapted to operably engage with a first flange of opposed first and second rim flanges of a wheel, so as to form a fulcrum on the contact point with the first flange; a second engagement portion (112), spaced apart at a predetermined distance in a direction away from said first engagement portion along said longitudinal axis, adapted to abuttingly engage with a rim-overlapping bead portion of a tire.

An adapter for a power tool including a housing, a tool-side connector, and a battery-side connector in electrical communication with each other. The tool-side connector is configured to couple to a power tool, and the battery-side connector is configured to couple to a battery pack. The adapter also includes a communication interface configured to couple with an external device, and a controller. The controller is configured to determine a state of the power tool, operate in a data transmission mode when the power tool is in the idle state, operate in a pass-through mode when the power tool is in the active state, and switch between the data transmission mode and the pass-through mode based on the state of the power tool.

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.
