A reciprocating cutting tool reduces deteriorating movement of an operating drum due to entry of chips between the operating drum and a housing. A reciprocating cutting tool includes a motor, a slider being rod-like and extending in a front-rear direction, a reciprocation converter that converts rotation of the motor to reciprocation in the front-rear direction and transmits the reciprocation to the slider, a power transmission housing accommodating the reciprocation converter, a tip tool holder at a front end of the slider to detachably receive a tip tool, and an operating drum operable to attach or detach the tip tool with the tip tool holder through rotation. The operating drum is rotatably held on the power transmission housing with one or more ring members.

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 percussive massage device that includes a housing, an electrical source, a motor positioned in the housing, a switch for activating the motor, a push rod assembly operatively connected to the motor and configured to reciprocate in response to activation of the motor, a massage attachment configured to be removably attached to the push rod, and an attachment module operatively connected to the housing. The housing includes first, second, and third handle portions that cooperate to define a handle opening, wherein the first handle portion defines a first axis, the second handle portion defines a second axis and the third handle portion defines a third axis, and wherein the first, second, and third axes cooperate to form a triangle.

Providing a reciprocating tool capable of reducing vibrations generated during operations and improving work performance and processing precision. A reciprocating tool includes a transmission gear part 61 and a counter weight part 62. The transmission gear part 61 includes a bevel gear 611 and a weight 611A. The bevel gear 611 is rotatable in a first direction about an axis B by receiving a drive force of a motor 3. The weight 62A is rotatable in a second direction opposite to the first direction about the axis B by receiving the drive force of the motor 3. A center of gravity 61G of the transmission gear part 61 and a center of gravity 62G of the counter weight part 62 are separated farthest from a blade mounting part 8 when the blade mounting part 8 is positioned in a rearward position. The center of gravity 61G of the transmission gear part 61 and the center of gravity 62G of the counter weight part 62 are closest to the blade mounting part 8 when the blade mounting part 8 is positioned in a forward position.

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.

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.
