A drive manipulation member is configured to be allowed to move to a drive position when an interlock member is at a first position and to be prohibited from moving to the drive position when the interlock member is at a second position. The drive manipulation member is supported rotatably about an axis with respect to the second housing, and is provided with first and second portions extending from the axis in different directions. The first portion is configured to be manipulated by the user. The second portion is provided with a switch operation portion configured to operate a switching unit and an interlock engaging portion configured to engage with or contact with the interlock member. The switch operation portion and the interlock engaging portion are located at different positions from each other in a direction parallel to the axis.

A manually guided implement possesses a guide tube, wherein a first mass body is disposed on a first end of the guide tube, and a second mass body is disposed on a second end of the guide tube. One of the mass bodies has a housing, and the other of the mass bodies has a tool driven by a drive motor. A power transmission mechanism for driving the tool between the first and second ends of the guide tube is guided in the interior of the guide tube. A first antivibration element is disposed between the first end of the guide tube and the first mass body. The guide tube in the direction of the longitudinal central axis thereof includes a first rigid sub-portion and a second rigid sub-portion that are connected to one another at an abutment location by at least one second antivibration element.

A hedge trimmer may include a housing provided with a handle configured to be gripped by a user, a pair of shear blades extending forward from the housing; a motor housed in the housing and configured to drive at least one of the pair of shear blades; and an electric circuit unit housed in the housing and configured to control power supplied to the motor. The handle may be provided at an upper portion of the housing in rear of the motor, and the electric circuit unit may be located under the handle in the rear of the motor.

Various trocars and trocar supports are provided for allowing an insufflation port on the trocar to be coupled through the trocar support to an insufflation fluid. In one embodiment, the trocar includes a housing, a cannula extending through the housing, and an insufflation port projecting from the housing. A trocar support is provided having an opening that receives the insufflation port on the housing such that the insufflation port is unobtrusive during use and can be connected and disconnected rapidly.

Herein a blade arrangement (6) for a hand-held power tool (2) is disclosed. The blade arrangement (6) comprises a driving member (16) configured for being driven to reciprocate along a driving direction (18), an elongated cutting blade body (12), and a clamping member (26). The clamping member (26) is configured to engage with the driving member (16) and the elongated cutting blade body (12) so as to press the driving member (16) against the elongated cutting blade body (12) at least partially in the driving direction (18).

A blade arrangement for a garden tool is disclosed. The blade arrangement has a guide rail, a first blade bar that can be moved relative to the guide rail, and a cover. The first blade bar is guided so as to be displaceable in an oscillating manner. The guide rail is located between the cover and the first blade bar. The first blade bar has slotted holes. The guide rail has through-openings. The cover has screw bosses. The first blade bar is attached to the cover with screws. The screws are guided through the slotted holes of the first blade bar and the through-openings of the guide rail and screwed into an internal thread of the screw bosses.

A cultivator tool includes a power head having a handle and a user interface. A motor is positioned within the power head and is configured to rotate a drive shaft about a drive axis. The cultivator further includes an attachment stem removably coupled to the power head at a first end and removably supporting a tool attachment unit at an opposite second end. A cover is receivable on the attachment stem between the tool attachment unit and the power head to cover a cutter rotatably supported on the tool attachment unit. The cover includes an aperture configured to receive a projection extending from the stem to limit rotation and sliding of the cover relative the tool attachment unit.

A cutter assembly for a hedge trimmer comprises a lower cutter and an upper cutter overlap each other and slidable along their longitudinal direction. Each of the lower cutter and the upper cutter has a cutter main body and a plurality of cutting edges protruding laterally from the cutter main body. At least the cutter main body of the lower cutter has an elongated hole penetrating the cutter main body of the lower cutter in its thickness direction and extending along the longitudinal direction. The elongated hole is exposed to an outside of the cutter assembly. An area along the longitudinal direction on an inner circumferential face of the elongated hole has at least one removal structure having a function of contacting a branch that has entered the elongated hole, and thereby removing the branch from within the elongated hole.

A hand-held drive apparatus comprises an apparatus main body including a pruner and a handle rotatably connected to the apparatus main body and including a rotation lock mechanism and a drive operation mechanism. The rotation lock mechanism includes a rotation lock lever movable to a rotation prevention position where the handle is prevented from rotating, and to a rotation allowance position where the handle is allowed to rotate. The drive operation mechanism includes a switch configured to control activation of the pruner and a throttle lever movable to a contact position where the throttle lever pushes the switch and to a non-contact position where the throttle lever is separated from the switch. The throttle lever contacts the rotation lock lever at the rotation allowance position to maintain the non-contact position, and is, when the rotation lock lever is at the rotation prevention position, allowed to move to the contact position.
