A power tool stand includes a base and a projecting frame connected to the base. The power tool stand also comprises a power tool carriage moveably mounted on the projecting frame. The power tool stand further comprises a tool interface mounted on the power tool carriage arranged to secure a removeable power tool. The power tool carriage comprises at least one duct having a duct inlet in fluid communication with a duct outlet.

Power tool stand

A handheld pole sander is provided including an elongate body having two ends, the elongate body including a first pole and a second pole made partially of electrically conductive material and capable of sliding in and out of each other in a telescopic manner the first pole and second pole are made from electrically conductive material. An electric motor electrically controlled by control electronics is provided, and a sanding head is attached via a pivot mechanism to a first end of the elongate body. At least one seal is located between overlapping parts of the first pole and second pole. The seal includes an electrically conductive material and provides an electrical connection between the first pole and second pole. Alternatively, at least one electrical contact is provided between the first pole and second pole to provide an electrical connection between the first pole and second pole.

Pole sander

A pole sander is provided including an elongate body having a first end and a second end, an electric motor, and a sanding head attached via a pivot mechanism to the first end of the elongate body. The sanding head includes a hood including a plate and a peripheral wall formed on the underside of the plate around an edge of the plate; an output spindle that projects from the hood and is rotatably driven by the electric motor around a rotational axis; and a brush ring mounted on the underside of the plate adjacent the edge of the plate inside of the peripheral wall. The brush ring is attached to the plate via a spring comprising at least one of a leaf spring or a wave spring.

A pole sander is provided including an elongate body including a passageway for passage of air, an electric motor, and a sanding head attached via a pivot mechanism to a first end of the elongate body. The sanding head includes a hood including a plate and a sidewall to form a chamber, an output spindle projecting from the hood and rotatably driven by the electric motor, and a tubular passage including a first end forming an opening and a second end coupled to an aperture formed through the plate. A flexible pipe is disposed between the passageway at the first end of the elongate body and the opening of the tubular passage to fluidly connect the passageway to the chamber. The tubular passage is oriented at least partially around a portion of the output spindle in a turning direction of the output spindle and extending angularly from the plate.
