A vacuum tool that is removably couplable to a hose or wand of a vacuum includes a body, funnel, gasket, and connection portion. The body includes a first end, second end, and wall extending between the first and second ends. The wall forms a work surface suction opening and a cavity in fluid communication with each other. The funnel includes a proximal skirt portion coupled to the first end and a distal skirt portion integrally formed with the proximal skirt portion. The proximal skirt portion has an aperture in fluid communication with the cavity. The distal skirt portion extends from the proximal skirt portion in a direction away from the first and second ends. The gasket is positioned along a perimeter of the work surface suction opening. The connection portion is coupled to the second end and includes a conduit in fluid communication with the cavity and an outlet.

Vacuum tools

A vacuum tool is removably couplable to a hose or wand of a vacuum. The vacuum tool includes a frustoconical head portion, a base portion, and fasteners. The frustoconical head portion includes a distal end of the vacuum tool, an interior support body, and an outer layer. The distal end has a central inlet opening and an annular distal face. The interior support body has a central conduit and fastener receiving recesses. The outer layer includes rubber and forms at least a portion of the annular distal face and an entirety of an outer lateral surface of the frustoconical head portion. The base portion includes a flared portion and a tubular portion. The flared portion has a maximum outer diameter and fastener access openings. The tubular portion has an outer diameter, a central conduit, and a proximal end of the vacuum tool.

Debris separator

A battery powered box-type fan assembly includes a fan housing that at least partially defines an airflow chamber, a plurality of fan blades positioned within the airflow chamber, a motor operable to rotate the plurality of fan blades, a battery receptacle positioned on the fan housing, the battery receptacle configured to receive a removable battery pack to power the motor, and a base coupled to the fan housing and configured to be placed on a support surface. The base elevates the fan housing above the support surface and is operable to support the fan housing in multiple configurations. The base also includes a stand pivotable relative to the fan housing between a collapsed position, in which the stand is flipped up toward the fan housing, and a deployed position, in which the stand extends away from the fan housing and is configured to contact the support surface.

Fan assembly

A fan assembly includes a fan housing including a shroud that at least partially defines an airflow chamber, a battery receptacle supported on the shroud, a first grille positioned adjacent a first end of the airflow chamber, a fan supported within the airflow chamber and rotatably coupled to one of the first grille or the shroud, and a motor supported on the other of the first grille or the shroud. The motor is operable to drive rotation of the fan and thereby generate airflow through the airflow chamber. The fan assembly further includes a base coupled to the fan housing. The base is operable to support the fan housing in multiple configurations to direct the airflow in multiple directions.

Adjustable fan assembly

A battery powered fan assembly for use with a stackable storage system includes a base defining a storage area, a fan housing that at least partially defines an airflow chamber, a plurality of fan blades positioned within the airflow chamber, a motor operable to rotate the plurality of fan blades, a battery receptacle configured to receive a removable battery pack to power the motor, a mating interface formed on at least one of the base and the fan housing, and a latch mounted to the base. The mating interface is configured to interact with a complementary mating interface formed on a stackable element of the stackable storage system, and the latch is configured to selectively inhibit relative movement between the fan assembly and the stackable element while the mating interface of the fan assembly interacts with the complementary mating interface of the stackable element.

A vacuum tool configured to be removably coupled to hose or wand of a vacuum includes a body including a first end, a second end, and a first longitudinal axis extending between the first end and the second end. The vacuum tool also includes a head coupled to the first end of the body, a connection portion coupled to the second end of the body and configured to couple the body to a hose or wand of a vacuum cleaner, and a brush coupled to the head. The brush includes an elongate support defining a second axis perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the body and configured to couple the brush to the head, and a plurality of bristles positioned on the elongate support.

A power tool tracking clip includes a wireless beacon transmitter having a memory that stores an identifier and a transmitter configured to wirelessly transmit the identifier. A clip body member has a beacon receptacle, and the wireless beacon transmitter is positioned within the beacon receptacle. A first arm member is coupled to a first end of the clip body and has a first inner surface configured to engage a power tool. A second arm member is coupled to a second end of the clip body and has a second inner surface configured to engage the power tool. A mounting feature on the first arm member aligns with a corresponding mounting feature on a corresponding outer wall of the power tool when the power tool tracking clip is mated to the power tool.
