Power tool, battery, charger and method of operating the same
US7814816B2
2009
A power tool includes a housing assembly having a first housing portion and a second housing portion supported for pivoting movement relative to the first housing portion about a pivot axis. The first housing portion supports a motor. The second housing portion includes a chuck for supporting a tool element. The power tool also includes a gear supported within the housing assembly for rotation relative to at least one of the first and second housing portions about the pivot axis. The gear is operable to transfer drive force from the motor to the tool element.
Stud punch
US7797840B2
2007
A stud punch head for a power tool includes a head housing and a first arm movably coupled to the head housing. The first arm supports a punch. The stud punch head also includes a second arm movably coupled to the head housing and relative to the first arm. The second arm supports a die opposite the punch. The stud punch head also includes a drive mechanism positioned at least partially within the head housing and operatively coupled to a motor of the power tool. The drive mechanism is operable to move the first arm and the second arm toward and away from each other.
Keyless clamp assembly for reciprocating tool
US6237231B1
2001
A clamp for the blade of a hand held reciprocating tool includes a spindle coupled to the drive mechanism. A slot is formed in the spindle for receiving the blade tang and a collar is threadably received on the spindle. A blade clamping member is disposed between the collar and the blade and includes an engaging member for engaging a hole in the blade tang and a pair of ears which engage the upper and lower shoulders of the blade tang to provide three points of engagement when the collar is tightened. The clamp also includes a nose section which engages the blade at its junction with the tang to provide reinforcement against breakage.
Power toll including inertia responsive element
US5984020A
1999
A power tool including an inertia responsive element. The power tool comprises a housing, a motor supported by the housing and adapted to be connected to a power source, an output element supported by the housing and selectively coupled to the motor, the motor imparting motion to the output element, and an inertia responsive element for disconnecting the output element from the power source if movement of the housing is greater than a predetermined threshold. In one embodiment, the power tool is a hand held power tool having a handle, and the inertia responsive element disconnects the output element from the power source should the handle move at a rate greater than a predetermined rate. In another embodiment, the power tool is a stationary power tool, such as a drill press. The housing of the stationary power tool includes a base for supporting the stationary power tool on the workpiece. The base is selectively connectable to the workpiece so that, when the base is connected to the workpiece, the housing is substantially stationary relative to the workpiece. The inertia responsive element disconnects the output element from the power source when the housing moves relative to the workpiece at a rate greater than a predetermined rate.
Hand held power tool including inertia switch
US5704435A
1998
A hand held power tool includes a motor coupled to an output element and an inertia switch operative to disable the output element upon movement of the tool at a rate greater than a determined rate. The inertia switch disables the output element by open circuiting the motor or uncoupling the output element from the motor.

A variational method for evaluating thrust bearing element load distribution
Journal of Engineering for IndustryStango, R.J., Jungmann, R.H.
1989
A variational method is outlined for computing thrust bearing element loads on the basis of minimizing the potential energy of the system. The problem is formulated in terms of a polynomial displacement assumption for bearing elements. To illustrate the computational procedure, numerical studies are presented for a thrust bearing subjected to a range of load eccentricities. The variational approach is demonstrated to result in an accurate and efficient solution for bearing element load distributions. Excellent agreement is achieved when comparison is made to conventional methods of classical bearing theory for nominal load eccentricities, while superior performance is obtained when load eccentricities are considerably larger. Basic advantages of the variational formulation are discussed and an illustrative problem is presented which demonstrates extended capability of the variational method for examining the load distribution in thrust bearings.
