In one embodiment, a power tool includes a cutting assembly, a sensor system proximate to the cutting assembly, a reaction system operably connected to the cutting assembly, a memory, program instructions stored within the memory, a spatial recognition algorithm stored within the memory, and a processor operably connected to the reaction system, the sensor system, and the memory. The processor is configured to execute the program instructions to detect a man profile within a detection zone associated with the cutting assembly, establish a location of the human profile within the detection zone based upon the detection using the spatial recognition algorithm, determine that an unsafe condition exists based upon the established location, and activate the reaction system.

Power tool with capacitive injury mitigation system

A terminal block includes a housing defining at least one bias compartment and at least one terminal compartment. A terminal plate is located within the housing and separates the bias compartment and the terminal compartment, and a bias element is positioned in the bias compartment. The bias element comprises a retainer portion extending through an opening in the terminal plate into the terminal compartment. The bias element is configured to retain a wire terminal to the terminal plate along a first direction and the terminal plate is configured to retain the wire terminal along a second direction when the wire terminal is received in through the retainer portion.

Locking spring-clamp terminal block and method for connecting the same

A terminal block assembly includes a base assembly including a terminal block housing and a terminal stud extending through the terminal block housing. A filter assembly is coupled to one end of the stud, and a second housing is coupled to the terminal block housing over the filter assembly. The filter assembly is enclosed between the first and second housing, and a ground plate is coupled to the base assembly and the filter assembly for dissipating filtered signals.

Filtered terminal block assembly

A terminal block assembly include a base assembly includes a terminal block housing and a terminal stud extending therethrough, a filter assembly coupled to the stud; and a ground assembly coupled to the base assembly and the filter assembly for dissipating filtered signals. The filter assembly is mechanically isolated from the base assembly and the ground assembly to prevent structural loading of the filter assembly.

A terminal block has a molded electrically insulative housing with through compartments containing terminal members each having a rectangular planar front section with a tapped hole for a terminal screw and three male terminal blades extending rearward from edges of the rectangular planar front section. The rectangular front section seats on ledges formed by bands integrally molded on opposing side walls of the compartments. Barbs projecting laterally from two facing male terminal blades engage the molded bands to secure the terminal member in the compartment. Partitions extending transversely between the front openings of the compartments provide electrical isolation between the screw terminals, and extend laterally beyond the molded body of the housing at both ends of the partitions to form mounting shoulders, which together with shoulders on projections molded on the housing body, secure the terminal block in an opening in a mounting panel. A cover integrally connected by a living hinge to a wall extending along one end of the partitions controls access to the screw connections on the planar front section of the terminal members.

Terminal block with front to multiple rear fast-on terminations

An electrical shorting block has a molded body with a plurality of side-by-side recesses in which terminal members having first, tapped apertures are secured. A shorting bar supported in the molded body extends across but is spaced from the terminal numbers and has second apertures aligned with the first apertures. For the hot side terminal members, shorting connectors slidable through but captured by the apertures in the shorting bar have threaded ends which can be selectively threaded into the tapped first apertures of those terminal members. Helical compression springs bias the captured shorting connectors away from the terminal members when not used to short the terminal. Common terminal members are connected to the shorting bar by shorting screws which remain threaded into the first apertures. The terminal members preferably have both screw terminations and male fast-on terminations.
