A power tool attachment device for securing an accessory to a power tool is disclosed. The power tool attachment device includes a first threaded portion and a second threaded portion. The second threaded portion has a shape and size different from the first threaded portion. The first threaded portion inserts in a hole of a power tool while the second threaded portion remains outside of the hole. The second threaded portion is shaped and sized to be able to attach accessories of the power tool. The second threaded portion receives and secures an accessory to the power tool, via an accessory hole that conforms to the shape and size of the second threaded portion. The power tool attachment device allows to attach the accessory such as a nut to the power tool such as a grinder, for example so that the accessory does not get lost.

A power tool receives a reaction force with an auxiliary handle attached to the power tool. An auxiliary handle attachable to a power tool includes a first arm, a second arm that fastens, together with the first arm, at least a part of the power tool located between the first arm and the second arm, a handle, a grip sensor that detects the handle being gripped with the first arm and the second arm fastening at least the part of the power tool in between, and a signal output unit that outputs, to the power tool, a grip signal indicating that the handle is gripped based on a detection signal from the grip sensor.

A power tool includes a side handle that can be toollessly positioned and also attached to or detached from a tool body. The power tool includes a tool body having a side surface, a side handle on the side surface of the tool body, and an operable portion operable to attach or detach the side handle to or from the tool body and to position the side handle being attached to the tool body.

A handle for use with a power tool includes a handle body, a beam and a weight. The handle body includes a mounting part and a grip part. The handle body is configured to be removably secured to a tool body of a power tool. The grip part is formed in an elongated hollow shape. The beam is supported by the handle body in a cantilever manner and extends within the grip part. The weight is supported by the beam.

A rotary hammer includes a housing, a first motor supported by the housing and defining a first motor axis, a second motor supported by the housing and defining a second motor axis that is coaxial with the first motor axis, and a spindle coupled to the first motor for receiving torque from the first motor, causing the spindle to rotate. The rotary hammer further includes a reciprocation mechanism operable to create a variable pressure air spring within the spindle. The reciprocation mechanism includes a piston configured to reciprocate within the spindle in response to receiving torque from the second motor, a striker that is selectively reciprocable within the spindle in response to reciprocation of the piston, and an anvil that is impacted by the striker when the striker reciprocates towards the tool bit. The anvil imparts axial impacts to the tool bit.

An impact tool (1) includes: a motor (10); an impact mechanism (115), which is rotatable about an output rotational axis (BX) and is operably driven by the motor; an anvil (16) having an anvil shaft (113) disposed forward of the impact mechanism, and a radially-outward-protruding anvil projection (114) that is impacted in a rotational direction by the impact mechanism; a hammer case (6) housing the impact mechanism; an anvil bearing (115) held by the hammer case and surrounding the anvil shaft; a first groove (121) formed on an outer-circumferential surface of the anvil shaft so as to encircle the output rotational axis; a second groove (122) formed on an inner-circumferential surface of the anvil bearing so as to encircle the output rotational axis; and a restraining member (123) having a first portion (124) disposed in the first groove, and a second portion (125) disposed in the second groove.

A side handle for a power tool is provided including a main gripping body; a rod extending through the main gripping body and having a threaded end extending through a frontal end of the main gripping body; and a knob mounted on an end of the rod opposite the threaded end and being rotatable relative to the main gripping body. The frontal end of the main gripping body includes a keying feature operable to engage a portion of the power tool to prevent rotation of the main gripping body relative to the power tool while the knob is rotated to fasten the threaded end of the rod to a threaded opening of the power tool.

A power tool with at least one control device and at least one communication circuit for exchanging signals in a half-duplex mode with a first and a second communication line for differential communication between at least a first transceiver and a second transceiver. A system including a power tool with at least one control device and a rechargeable battery with at least one set of control electronics, the rechargeable battery being designed for supplying the power tool with electrical energy. The system includes at least one communication circuit for exchanging signals in a half-duplex mode with a first and a second communication line for differential communication between at least a first transceiver and a second transceiver.

A dual positionable adaptor for a fastener driver assembly employs a tandem guide assembly mounted to a guide head which has an entry reference surface defining an opening for a fastener to provide a proper location and entry angle for the fastener. A pair of wings each defines a pair of reference engagement edges which engage either an upper horizontal member or a lower horizontal member. The wings, together with the entry reference surface, define a proper entry location and angle for connecting a vertical stud to either an upper plate or a lower plate. The selected adaptor position is achieved by securing the adaptor in one of two angular positions relative to the tube axis of the fastener driver assembly. The wings are also affixed with squirrel claws to lock the adaptor in place for installing the fastener. The adaptor also includes flush indicators to indicate that the proper flush position of the reference surface against the vertical member is achieved. The wings are independently pivotal to accommodate situations wherein the tandem wing configuration cannot be employed. The fastener is retained within the adaptor fastener channel via a magnet assembly.

A handle adjustment assembly is attached to a walk-behind lawn mower, wherein the handle adjustment assembly is rotatably adjustable relative to a deck of the mower to allow the handle to be adjusted to multiple different heights relative to the ground at distinct operative positions. The handle adjustment assembly is also rotatable to allow the handle to be adjusted to a stored position adjacent to the deck, wherein the mower can be stored in a substantially vertical orientation.
