The wireless hoist system includes a controller in wireless communication with the first wireless transceiver and the second wireless. The controller is configured to receive a user input and determine a first operation parameter and a second operation parameter based on the user input. The controller is also configured to provide, wirelessly, a first control signal indicative of the first operation parameter to the first hoist device and provide, wirelessly, a second control signal indicative of the second operation parameter to the second hoist device. The first hoist device operates based on the first control signal and the second hoist device operates based on the second control signal.

Wireless hoist system

A gas spring-powered fastener driver includes a cylinder, a moveable piston positioned within the cylinder, a driver blade attached to the piston and movable therewith between a ready position and a driven position, a lifter to move the driver blade from the driven position to the ready position, and a transmission including an output shaft operatively coupled to the lifter to provide torque to the lifter. The fastener driver also includes an input to provide torque to the transmission and a clutch positioned downstream of the input and operably coupled to the output shaft to limit an amount of torque transferred to the output shaft and the lifter. In response to an application of a reaction torque to the output shaft above a predetermined threshold, torque from the input is diverted from the output shaft via the clutch.

Gas spring-powered fastener driver

A transportable machine including an elongated frame having a top end and a bottom end, a handle disposed on the top end of the frame, a base disposed on the bottom end of the frame, where the base and the frame together define a space configured to receive and support a load, and a wheel disposed on the bottom end of the frame. A track is coupled to the frame, where the track includes a roller and an endless belt configured to rotate about the roller. A motor is coupled to the roller, where the motor is operable to drive the endless belt, and a power supply provides power to the motor.

Transportable machine including a track system

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 device is operable to lift and transport a pipe at a worksite. The device includes a base, a mast coupled to the base, and a carriage coupled to the mast upon which the pipe is supportable. The device further includes a lifting assembly that is operable to move the mast and the carriage in a first direction to a desired elevation relative to the base and a positioning assembly that is operable to move the carriage relative to the mast in a second direction that is transverse to the first direction.

Lifting and transport device

A stand-alone motor unit for use with a piece of power equipment includes a housing and a flange coupled to the housing on a first side thereof. A plurality of apertures through the flange defines a first bolt pattern that matches an identical, second bolt pattern defined in the piece of power equipment. An electric motor has a power output of at least about 2760 W. The motor includes a stator having a nominal outer diameter of up to about 80 mm and a rotor supported for rotation within the stator. A power take-off shaft receives torque from the rotor and protrudes from one of the flange or a second side of the housing. A controller is positioned within the housing and electrically connected to the motor. A battery pack for powering the motor has battery cells having a nominal voltage of up to about 80 V.

Battery-powered stand-alone motor unit

A zero-gravity hoist system including a chain fall, a motor coupled to the chain fall and configured to drive the chain fall in one or more directions, a power supply configured to provide power to the motor, and a controller having one or more electronic processors. The one or more electronic processors are configured to measure a first force of a load in response to receiving an input, store the measured first force in a memory of the controller, measure a second force of the load, determine a difference between the second measured force and the first measured force, and adjust a height of the load based on determining that the second force differs from the first force by a predetermined threshold.

Zero-gravity hoist control

A sewer cleaning machine includes a frame, a drum supported by the frame, and a motor supported by the frame and coupled to the drum. The drum includes a cable that is selectively extendable out of the drum. The motor is operable to rotate the drum. The frame is moveable between a first position, in which the drum is supported by the frame off of a surface, and a second position, in which the drum contacts the surface.

Sewer cleaning machine

A housing for a handheld vacuum cleaner includes a suction opening, a cyclone chamber, and a helical passage. The suction opening is defined in the housing. The cyclone chamber is in fluid communication with the suction opening. The helical passage includes a first end, a second end, and at least one sidewall. The first end is in fluid communication with the suction opening. The second end is in fluid communication with the cyclone chamber. The at least one sidewall extends between the first end and the second end. The at least one sidewall separates the helical passage from the cyclone chamber.
