Particular embodiments of the inventive technology relate to apparatus and methods for cutting multi-layered material to reconfigure it so it may be used to construct sub-compartments in a larger storage container. The inventive technology, in particular embodiments may feature one or more of the following: dual blades, “staggered” blades (where one blade is more forward than another), a blade(s) angled upwards and forwards, blades separated in a left-right direction, prong recesses to accept trailing tips of blades, a rearwardly angled handle and/or a removed material ejection ramp, in conjunction perhaps with other features such as, e.g., a guide prong. One or more of such features may appear in the various manifestations of a defluting cutter or through cutting apparatus, whether guided or unguided, and/or manual or powered.

An oscillation drive with a drive and with an eccentric coupling drive for converting a rotary motion of the drive into an oscillating rotary motion of a tool spindle about its longitudinal axis is disclosed, wherein the eccentric coupling drive has an eccentric with a first eccentricity that is driven by the drive and that works together with a coupling element that is coupled to the tool spindle in order to convert the motion of the eccentric into an oscillating rotary motion of the tool spindle, wherein the eccentric is coupled to an additional eccentric with a second eccentricity so that the eccentricities are superimposed, wherein the relative position between the eccentric and the additional eccentric is adjustable to at least two different positions in order to change the amplitude of the oscillating motions of the tool spindle.

An oscillatory power tool that is capable of using various types of cutting tools is disclosed. The power tool includes an output shaft for mounting one of the cutting tools and driving the cutting tool in an oscillating rotary motion. An end of the output shaft has a driving section for engaging with a securing section of the cutting tool. The power tool further includes a fastener connected to the output shaft at the end and connectable to the securing section of the cutting tool for fastening the cutting tool to the end of the output shaft. The driving section has a fitting surface for contacting a surface of the securing section. Through a close fit between the friction surface and the surface of the securing section, the power tool can be connected with different types of cutting tools, which greatly improves the universality and convenience of the power tool.

A power cutter disclosed herein may include: a disk blade; a body configured to rotatably support the disk blade about a rotation axis and comprising an electric motor for rotationally driving the disk blade; a plurality of battery packs detachably attached to the body and configured to supply electric power to the electric motor; a grip disposed on the body and configured to be gripped by a user; and a main switch disposed on the grip and configured to electrically connect the plurality of battery packs to the electric motor when the user activates the main switch; wherein a central axis of the grip extends along a reference plane which is perpendicular to the rotation axis of the disk blade, and a distance from the reference plane to the disk blade is less than or equal to 1.5 times a width of the grip.

A power tool includes a direct current (DC) unit, a motor, a driving circuit, a capacitor circuit, and a control unit. The capacitor circuit includes a switching element and a capacitor. The control unit drives the switching element to realize the control of charging or discharging of the capacitor. The capacitor circuit is connected between the DC unit and the driving circuit, and can buffer the impact on the power supply side of the power tool, making the power tool compact in structure.

An oscillating power tool includes a drive motor (M) producing rotary motion and an oscillating mechanism (30) for converting the motor rotary motion to an oscillatory side-to-side movement. The oscillating mechanism (30) includes a link (32) driven by an eccentric shaft (16) of the motor (M), a drive arm (40) that drives the hub (45) of the working tool (B) in oscillating motion, and a bearing arrangement (37) between the drive arm (40) and the link (32) that isolates relative rotation and translation between the components while still imparting an oscillatory motion to the drive arm (40).
