A chainsaw configured to be powered by a battery pack. The chainsaw includes a housing, a guide bar, and a power and drive assembly. The housing includes a battery interface for receiving the battery pack. The guide bar guides a cutting chain and is removably coupled to the housing. The power and drive assembly includes a motor and a gear train. The motor is disposed within the housing and is configured to be powered by the battery pack. The gear train is driven by the motor and configured to drive the cutting chain. The housing, the guide bar, and the power and drive assembly each contribute to a total weight of the chainsaw. A power output by the power and drive assembly compared to the total weight defines a power-to-weight ratio of above 150 Watts per Pound.

A handheld cutting tool includes a motor, a driven gear coupled to the motor for receiving torque therefrom and a sprocket coupled for co-rotation with the driven gear, a handle guard extending from handle portion, a chain supported on a guide bar and engaged with the sprocket such that rotation of the sprocket moves the chain along the guide bar, and a battery pack removably coupled to an end of the handle portion. The handle guard includes a support face configured to support the handheld cutting tool on a horizontal support surface, and the battery pack includes a foot portion. A center of gravity of the handheld cutting tool is located above the foot portion and permits balancing of the handheld cutting tool in an upright position on only the foot portion.

A method for operating a saw assembly as well as a saw assembly, having a chainsaw (1) with a circulating saw chain (2) and a chain drive sprocket (3) for driving the saw chain (2). The chainsaw (1) is secured to a moving device (8) via a chainsaw swivel device (19). The moving device (8) has a first operating mode, in which the chainsaw (1) is moved or movable from a first position through a saw area (9) and through the cutting material (18) into a second position, and the moving device (8) has a second operating mode, in which the chainsaw (1) is moved or movable from the second position back through the saw area (9) and through the cutting material (18) into the first position.

A chainsaw includes a housing having a handle housing portion, a motor housing portion, and a drive housing portion. The handle housing portion has a longitudinal axis that defines a first axis of the chainsaw. The chainsaw also includes a motor having an output shaft with a longitudinal axis that defines a second axis of the chainsaw, a driven gear coupled to the output shaft, a sprocket coupled to the driven gear, and a guide bar extending from the drive housing portion and having a longitudinal axis that defines a third axis of the chainsaw. A chain is supported on the guide bar and engaged with the sprocket. The first axis, the second axis, and the third axis are generally coplanar, and the first axis and the second axis define a first included angle between about 75 degrees and about 95 degrees.

A chainsaw apparatus has a body having a handle formed thereon or attached thereto, a motor, a saw blade coupled to the body so as to be extendable in transverse relationship to the longitudinal axis of the body, and a chain movably positioned on the saw blade. The motor is drivingly connected to the chain so as to cause the chain to move around the saw blade. The saw blade is adjustably coupled to the body so as to be movable between the position transverse to the longitudinal axis of the body to a position aligned with the longitudinal axis of the body. An angle adjustment mechanism is connected to the saw blade into the body. The angle adjustment mechanism is adapted to fix an angular position of the saw blade relative to the body.

A chainsaw includes a housing including a handle housing portion, a motor housing portion, and a drive housing portion. The handle housing portion has a cavity extending along a longitudinal axis defining a first axis. A motor includes an output shaft having a longitudinal axis that defines a second axis. The chainsaw also includes a driven gear coupled to the output shaft, a sprocket coupled to the driven gear such that rotation of the driven gear rotates the sprocket, and a guide bar extending from the drive housing portion and having a longitudinal axis that defines a third axis of the chainsaw. The first and second axes define an included angle less than 75 degrees, the second and third axes define a second included angle between 110 degrees and 130 degrees, and the first and third axes define an external angle between 150 degrees and 170 degrees.

A handheld cutting tool includes a housing including a motor housing portion, a drive housing portion, and a handle portion extending from one of the motor housing portion or the drive housing portion. A motor is located in the motor housing portion. A driven gear is coupled to the motor for receiving torque therefrom. A first guard extends between the handle portion and one of the drive housing portion or the motor housing portion, and a second guard extends between the drive housing portion and one of the handle portion and the motor housing portion. A guide bar extends from the drive housing portion at an angle offset relative to the handle portion and the first and second guards. A chain is supported on the guide bar, and a battery pack is removably coupled to a bottom part of the handle portion.
