An accessory for an oscillating power tool includes an anchor for selectively coupling with an oscillating power tool. The anchor includes a generally planar portion having an anchor interface configured to couple to the oscillating power tool and defining a longitudinal axis and a center point. The anchor interface includes a central aperture and a plurality of peripheral openings. The central aperture includes the center point therein. The plurality of peripheral openings are disposed radially about the center point and in communication with the central aperture. The plurality of peripheral openings also includes at least one conjoined group of peripheral openings collectively in communication with the central aperture by way of a shared neck opening. The at least one conjoined group includes a first peripheral opening, a second peripheral opening, and a third peripheral opening.

A suction device for a hole saw of a hand-held power tool oscillatingly driven about an oscillation axis. A substantially disk-shaped base body has a first side that faces the hand-held power tool and a second side that faces the hole saw. A fastening section detachably fastens the suction device to an oscillatingly driven hand-held power tool; and a connecting piece connects the suction device to a suction apparatus.

A power tool, such as an oscillating multi-tool, is configured to drive a tool accessory in an oscillating manner. The power tool includes a motor, and a spindle supported to be rotatable around a driving axis and configured to pivotally oscillate the tool accessory, which is removably mounted on the spindle, using power generated by the motor. An inner housing of the power tool houses the motor and the spindle, and has at least one airflow inlet and at least one airflow outlet. An outer housing of the power tool houses the inner housing and is elastically connected to the inner housing via at least one elastic member to be movable relative to the inner housing. A partition is disposed between the at least one inlet and the at least one outlet. The partition divides a space defined between the inner and outer housings into first and second airflow spaces.

A surgical sagittal saw cartridge that includes a guide bar formed from an inner plate and opposed outer plates, the inner plate defining a head. The cartridge has a blade that is disposed against the head of the inner plate. The inner plate may comprise an inner tine and/or two opposed outer tines. The inner tine may be formed to define the head against which the blade is disposed. The outer tines may extend distally so as to define a space between the outer tines in which the blade is seated.

The present invention provides a cutting tool for surgical procedures. More specifically, the present invention provides a rotary surgical cutting tool which overcomes the disadvantages of prior art surgical cutting tools by providing a rotary cutting tool having straight flutes, with each side of the flute being provided with a cutting edge that permits cutting in both directions during limited oscillatory motion of the rotary surgical cutting tool. The areas between the cutting edges are provided with relief to reduce friction while the flute moves the cut material away from the cutting edges.

A method of using an oscillating accessory with an oscillating power tool may include providing an attachment member. The attachment member may include an attachment plate, a raised rim portion extending from the attachment plate, the raised rim having a central recess, a keyed sidewall with an at least partially star shape configured to be engaged by a first mating geometry of an oscillating power tool, and a top wall that includes a receiving portion having a plurality of recesses configured to be engaged by a second mating geometry of an oscillating power tool. The central recess may not be in communication with any of the plurality of recesses. The attachment member may be used to facilitate tool-free attachment of a working portion to the oscillating power tool via a clamp assembly having a first clamp member moveable relative to a second clamp member without use of a secondary tool.

A surgical sagittal saw blade cartridge that includes a guide bar formed from an inner layer and opposed outer plates. The inner layer comprising an outer tine extending distally from the proximal end of the guide bar. An outer surface of the outer tine forms a section of a side surface of the guide bar. A side weld may be formed along the side surface of the guide bar. The cartridge may include a blade coupled to the guide bar, the blade comprising a web disposed between the two outer plates. The blade may include a blade head integral with and located distal to the web, the head formed with teeth located distal to the guide bar, the teeth having a sufficient thickness to form a kerf able to receive the guide bar. A method of forming the cartridge is also contemplated, including welding the inner layer to the outer plates.

A surgical saw blade cartridge includes a bar, a blade and a drive link. The bar includes a first plate and an opposed second plate defining a space therebetween, and an opening in at least one of the plates for releasable connection to a saw. The blade includes a base moveably disposed in the space between the plates and a head integral with the base located outside of the bar. The head has teeth at least as wide as a portion of the bar adjacent the head. The drive link extends through the bar and is moveable therein with a proximal end configured for attachment to a drive component of the saw and a distal end connected to either the base of the blade or a pivot link. The bar includes a structural member adjacent the head that extends forward of the head.

A work tool includes a spindle, a clamp shaft and at least one biasing part. The spindle is configured to be reciprocally rotated within a specified angle range around a driving axis. The spindle has a first inclined face inclined in a direction crossing the driving axis. The clamp shaft includes a shaft part and a head part. The shaft part is configured to be coaxially inserted into the spindle. The head part is formed on a lower end portion of the shaft part and configured to clamp the tool accessory in cooperation with the spindle while a second inclined face of the tool accessory is pressed against the first inclined face. The at least one biasing part is provided in the spindle and configured to always bias the tool accessory downward while the tool accessory is clamped by the head part and the spindle.
