A power tool includes a body, a power assembly, an output member, a clamping device, a battery pack, and a baseplate assembly. The power assembly is disposed in the body. The output member is driven by the power assembly to output power. The clamping device is connected to the output member and used for clamping a work attachment. The battery pack is connected to the body and supplies power to the power assembly. The baseplate assembly is connected to the body and includes a baseplate in contact with a workpiece. The battery pack includes a first support unit, the baseplate includes a second support unit, and the first support unit and the second support unit are disposed in the same support plane.

A reciprocating saw includes a housing, a motor, and a drive mechanism. The motor includes an output gear rotatable about a motor axis. The drive mechanism includes a driven gear that engages the output gear and is rotated by the motor. The driven gear has a circumference and is vertically-oriented within the housing. The drive mechanism also includes an output shaft coupled to the driven gear and configured to reciprocate relative to the housing. The drive mechanism further includes a single counterweight fixed relative to the driven gear and rotating with the driven gear through a path and in a same direction. As the counterweight moves through a rearward half of the path, the counterweight generally moves in an upward direction, and as the counterweight moves through a forward half of the path, the counterweight generally moves in a downward direction.

A surgical tool may move a saw blade in a sagittal plane. The saw blade has a distal blade end with teeth. The surgical tool comprises a handpiece body and a carrier operatively attached to the handpiece body. The carrier is configured for oscillating movement about a pivot axis. A retainer is operatively attached to the carrier for concurrent movement and releasably secures the saw blade in the sagittal plane relative to the handpiece body. An actuator is coupled to the handpiece body to selectively oscillate the carrier relative to the handpiece body such that the retainer and the saw blade pivot back and forth about the pivot axis within the sagittal plane. An ultrasonic transducer is operatively attached to the handpiece body to selectively generate ultrasonic energy to resonate the saw blade such that the teeth at the distal blade end reciprocate proximally and distally within the sagittal plane.

A power tool includes a body housing including a first grip, inlet facing a front surface of the first grip, first outlet, and second outlet; a brushless motor held on the body housing and including a rotational shaft; an output unit supported on the body housing in a reciprocable manner; a power transmission mechanism between the brushless motor and the output unit in the body housing to transmit rotational motion of the rotational shaft to the output unit; a controller held on the body housing to control the brushless motor; and a fan held on the body housing and mounted on the rotational shaft. The body housing allows air drawn through the inlet and having cooled the brushless motor to be divided into first and second outlet blows respectively cooling the power transmission mechanism and discharged through the first outlet, and cooling the controller and discharged through the second outlet.

An electric work machine in one aspect of the present disclosure includes a motor, a manual switch, and a control circuit. The control circuit switches a preset control either to be enabled or disabled. During the preset control being enabled, the control circuit (i) varies an actual rotational speed of the motor in accordance with an actual moved distance of the manual switch and (ii) increases the actual rotational speed in response to a load being imposed on the motor. During the preset control being disabled, the control circuit varies the actual rotational speed in accordance with the actual moved distance of the manual switch in a manner at least partly distinctive from a variation in the actual rotational speed during the preset control being enabled.

A method of assembling a gearcase cover assembly of a reciprocating saw. The method includes providing a gearcase cover with a cylindrical opening and a receiving portion, providing a shaft with a yoke affixed to the shaft, inserting a first end of the shaft into the cylindrical opening and rotating the shaft such that a second end of the shaft sits in the receiving portion.

A metal wire may be provided inside a hanger portion extending with an annular shape and which is integrally formed with an outer casing. An electric power tool may be prevented from falling, etc. due to deformation or breakage of the hanger portion by being reinforced by the wire.

A reciprocating saw includes a housing, a motor, and a drive mechanism. The drive mechanism includes a driven gear that is rotated by the motor. The driven gear is vertically-oriented within the housing. The drive mechanism also includes a drive arm coupled to the driven gear to translate rotary motion of the driven gear into reciprocating motion, and an output shaft coupled to the drive arm to reciprocate relative to the housing along a spindle axis through a cutting stroke and a return stroke. The drive mechanism further includes a counterweight coupled to the driven gear and rotating with the driven gear through a path and in a same direction. As the counterweight moves through a rearward half of the path, the counterweight generally moves in an upward direction, and as the counterweight moves through a forward half of the path, the counterweight generally moves in a downward direction.

A reciprocating cutting tool allows a more stable operation. A reciprocating saw includes a motor extending vertically, a reciprocating transmitter located below the motor, a slider extending in a front-rear direction, connected to the reciprocation transmitter, and movable in the front-rear direction, a power housing holding the motor and the reciprocation transmitter, a grip housing extending rearward from the power housing, a battery housing located behind the grip housing, and a connecting housing located below the grip housing and connecting the power housing to the battery housing.

A suction device for a portable handheld power saw (10), wherein: the handheld power saw has a housing (17) in which a drive motor (11) is arranged and has a tool holder (14), which can be driven to linearly oscillate along an axis of movement (SO) by the drive motor (11), for a sawing tool (15) having an elongate design and extending along a longitudinal axis for making a saw cut in a workpiece (W). The suction device (30) has at least one guide contour (55) which, when the suction device is mounted on the handheld power saw, protrudes in front of the machine guide surface (23) such that the handheld power saw can be guided on the workpiece by means of the at least one guide contour (55) instead of the machine guide surface.
