A hand held trencher assembly for digging a trench with existing weed trimmers includes a weed trimmer that is manipulated by a user. The weed trimmer has a motor, a pole and a drive that is positioned within the pole. The drive is rotatably coupled to the motor such that the motor rotates the drive when the motor is turned on. A trenching unit is removably coupled to the pole such that the trenching unit lies on the ground when the weed trimmer is employed. The trenching unit is releasably coupled to the drive for powering the trenching unit thereby facilitating the trenching unit to dig a trench in the ground.

A blade assembly for cutting roots is installed on a hand-carried weed cutter or hand-carried sidewalk edger. The blade assembly comprises a rear blade configured to support a plurality of blades on the shaft of the weed cutter. The rear blade has a plurality of teeth disposed around its perimeter, and a central opening configured to be received by the shaft of the weed trimmer. A front blade has a plurality of teeth disposed around its perimeter. Stacks of grinding segments are sandwiched together between the rear blade and the front blade, each stack of grinding segments extending partially around the blade assembly at an angle. Each grinding segment has a plurality of teeth disposed along an outer edge of the grinding segment. Spacers without teeth are adjacent to and separate the stacks of grinding segments from one another. The spacers are also sandwiched between the rear blade and the front blade.

Described herein is a combination apparatus and methods of using the combination apparatus. The combination apparatus is operable as both an edger and a sod cutter. The combination apparatus includes an arm that oscillates when driven by a motor. Both a sod cutter blade and an edger blade are coupled to the arm.

An outdoor surface treating apparatus having a body having a handle and a head arranged to be removably connected with an accessory tool assembly. The head includes a first engagement arrangement for releasably engaging with a second engagement arrangement in the accessory tool assembly. A drive unit, arranged in the head, includes a first coupling member for drivingly coupling with a second coupling member in the accessory tool assembly. The first engagement arrangement is fixed. The second engagement arrangement is movable between an extended position and a retracted position. The accessory tool assembly includes a biasing element for biasing the second engagement arrangement into the extended position. As the accessory tool assembly is aligned with the head, in particular when the first engagement arrangement is aligned with the second engagement arrangement, and is moved along a movement axis into engagement with the head, the second engagement arrangement first moves over the first engagement arrangement against the bias then returns to the extended position and locks with the first engagement arrangement while the first coupling member couples with the second coupling member.

A guard tube assembly for a drive shaft of a power tool has a guard tube with a tube cross section deviating from a circular shape and having an inner contour and a center. An inner support tube inside the guard tube supports the drive shaft. The inner support tube has a bearing sleeve supported by support elements on the inner contour. The inner contour has a first and a second circumferential section. The first circumferential section has a smallest spacing to the center and the second circumferential section has a largest spacing to the center. The elastic support elements have a contact surface contacting the inner contour and spaced at a contact surface spacing to the center. The contact surface spacing is longer than the smallest spacing of the first circumferential section and shorter than or identical to the largest spacing of the second circumferential section.

A power tool (1) is disclosed comprising a tool (3), a power source (5) arranged to power the tool (3), a throttle lever (7), a circuit board (9), and a human machine interface (10) comprising components (15, 17, 19) arranged on the circuit board (9). The power tool (1) further comprises a magnet (11) operably connected to the throttle lever (7), and a sensor arrangement (13) configured to sense the intensity of the magnetic field of the magnet (11). The sensor arrangement (13) is arranged on the circuit board (9).

A lawn mower includes a housing with a baffle that defines an air path to produce a cross-flow. The baffle includes a vent to manipulate air pressures within the housing and facilitate movement of plant clippings. A hand-held device for trimming with a rotary blade assembly may also include a housing that defines an air path to produce a cross-flow. The hand-held trimming device may also a baffle with a vent to facilitate movement of plant clippings.

The disclosure provides a driving assembly and a garden tool. The driving assembly includes a connecting base and a driving device. The driving device includes a driving body, a mounting part and an output shaft. The output shaft includes an input section and an output section. The input section is housed in the driving body and extends outward from the driving body to form the output section. The mounting part is arranged on a side of the driving body close to the output section, and a receiving hole is opened on the connecting base. A side of the driving body away from the output section passes through the receiving hole and connects a bottom of the connecting base with the mounting part.

The disclosure provides a garden tool, which includes a control assembly, a working head and a connecting rod connecting the control assembly and the working head. The working head includes a housing and a cover, and the connecting rod is connected with the housing. The connecting rod is provided with a power cable extending into the housing and connected with the control assembly. An accommodating cavity is formed in the housing, and an opening of the accommodating cavity may be detachable connected with the cover. A motor is accommodated in the accommodating cavity, the motor is fixedly connected with the cover, a blade is arranged in the cover, and a motor shaft part of the motor extends into the cover and is fixedly connected with the blade. The motor is provided with a motor wire that is pluggably connected with the power cable.

Inductively powered power tool systems are provided. An inductively powered power tool system includes an inductive power supply backpack comprising a power source; a power transmitter system configured to inductively transfer power from the power source via a transmittal coil; and a wearable transmitter, wherein the wearable transmitter comprises the transmittal coil. The inductively powered power tool system further includes an inductively powered power tool comprising a power receiver system configured to inductively receive power from the power transmitter system; a working implement; and a drive unit, configured to drive the working implement using power inductively received by the power receiver system from the power transmitter system.
