Examples herein include a chainsaw bar shield and a method for using a chainsaw bar shield. A chainsaw bar shield comprises a bar shield arm extending from at least one securing mechanism for engaging and pinching a chainsaw bar extending from a chainsaw housing. The securing mechanism offsets the bar shield arm from a chainsaw chain extending from the chainsaw housing and, thereby, protects a user by separating the user from the chainsaw chain during maintenance of a chainsaw. Other examples of a chainsaw bar shield comprise an enclosure secured to a chainsaw bar which is offset from and substantially encloses a chainsaw chain extending from a chainsaw housing.

A hand tool holding rack assembly has multiple rail bases and two fixing bases. The rail bases are disposed to be parallel with each other, and each rail base has an elongated body and multiple positioning mounts. The positioning mounts are mounted slidably on the elongated body. The two fixing bases are connected with ends of the elongated bodies of the rail bases to connect the rail bases with each other, and each fixing base has at least one fixing slot, multiple fixing tabs, and multiple fixing fasteners. The at least one fixing slot is defined through the fixing base. The fixing tabs are attached respectively to the elongated bodies of the multiple rail bases, and each fixing tab has a threaded hole. The fixing fasteners are mounted through the at least one fixing slot and are screwed respectively with the threaded holes in the fixing tabs.

An Apparatus, Method, and System for Hardware Mapping and Management is disclosed. Apparatus comprises a substrate housing hardware units associated with an object; one or more holes within the substrate for housing at least one hardware unit of the object are positioned based on a layout corresponding to the hardware units' assembly within the object. A method providing a plurality of substrates for housing hardware comprised of at least two components and at least two hardware units for each component, configuring a first plurality of holes within a first substrate of the plurality of substrate, wherein the first plurality of holes are laid out within the first substrate at locations relative the location of hardware units within a first component, and configuring a second plurality of holes within a second substrate of the plurality of substrate, wherein the second plurality of holes are laid out within the second substrate at locations relative the location of hardware units within a second component.

An apparatus configured for attaching an air-powered accessory to a surface by which the apparatus may be installed and secured by the single act of inserting the accessory into the apparatus and by which the accessory may be removed from the apparatus by depressing the apparatus collar. The apparatus is attachable to a surface by bolt, screw, or other attachment means passing into the device substantially co-axially with the device.

A lanyard device suitable for connecting a tool to a user in use, including a housing at least part of which is adapted to be connected to clothing, belt and/or safety harness. The housing including at least one socket means formed thereon and/or therein, said device also including a flexible lanyard or tether means, at least one end of which is adapted to connect to a tool in use. At least part of the said lanyard means includes a portion to be received and/or engage with said socket means and said socket means shaped and/or orientated such that the flexible lanyard cannot pass freely through said socket means when the user lets go of the tool and/or lanyard.

A securable vertical toolbox includes a vertically disposed frame, a plurality of wheels for transporting the vertically disposed frame, and a plurality of support panels configured to extend horizontally from the vertically disposed frame, each of the support panels including a peg board configured to support tool supporting fixtures. The securable vertical toolbox further includes an enclosure including a rear panel, a top panel, and two doors configured to surround the vertically disposed frame when the plurality of support panels are retracted into the vertically disposed frame and the two doors are secured, each of the two doors including a first panel configured to cover a side portion of the vertically disposed frame and a second panel configured to cover a front portion of the vertically disposed frame.

The present disclosure is directed to a holster device. The holster device includes an arcuate shaft, a first end of the arcuate shaft connected to a first end of a cradle, a second end of the arcuate shaft connected to a handle support and a central portion of the arcuate shaft formed between the first end of the arcuate shaft and the second end of the arcuate shaft, the cradle configured to contact a tool in a central portion of the cradle, wherein a central portion of the cradle is at an angle that is substantially perpendicular to the first end of the arcuate shaft and the handle support configured to contact the tool in a central portion of the handle support, wherein a central portion of the handle support is at an angle that is substantially perpendicular to the central portion of the arcuate shaft.

A cutter and a kit. The cutter, such as a close quarters cutter, is operable to cut a work piece extending along an axis and includes a cutting wheel, a roller, and a housing assembly supporting the cutting wheel and the roller for movement about the axis in a cutting direction to cut the work piece. The housing assembly has a generally cylindrical outer surface engageable by a user to pivot the cutter about the axis. A grip portion is provided on the outer surface and includes a plurality of grip members. Each grip member includes, relative to the cutting direction, a trailing surface and a leading surface extending from the outer surface. The leading surface may be angled toward the cutting direction.

A retention device for hand-held power tools. The retention device may include a first plate which may be attached to the underside of the power tool; a second plate and a third plate which may be connected to the first plate via hinges. The second and third plates may have aligned notches fit for an object such as a piece of lumber. When the second and third plates are extended, the retention device may allow the power tool to be set down on the edge of the object in an upright position. When the second and third plates are folded, the power tool may still be placed in an upright position on a flat surface.

A system having a hand tool battery, a hand tool case which has at least one inductive charge receiving area which is provided for storing a hand tool battery which is inserted into the inductive charge receiving area at least partially in close proximity to at least one wall of the hand tool case, and having at least one latent heat storage unit which is provided for influencing at least a temperature of the at least one hand tool battery.
