A drill system including a drill and a secondary computing device. The drill includes a housing, a controller, a wireless transceiver, a motor, and a chuck. The motor, the controller and the wireless transceiver are housed in the housing. The chuck is selectively driven by the motor. The secondary computing device includes a wireless transceiver which allows wireless communication between the drill and the secondary computing device. The secondary computing device further includes a user interface configured to allow an operator to change operating parameters of the drill. The operating parameters are configured to be automatically reset.

Remote programming of a power tool

A battery pack power transfer adaptor and a battery pack system that includes a battery pack adaptor. The adaptor enables a battery pack to provide high level power transfers to a variety of devices and to receive high level power transfers from a variety of power sources. The adaptor includes a battery pack interface to enable the adaptor to mechanically and electrically connect to the battery pack. The adaptor is able to transfer power at a variety of levels dependent upon the device to which it is attached.

Battery pack power transfer adaptor

A hand-held power tool is configured to receive an input indicative of a clutch setting for an electronic clutch from the tool operator, where the clutch setting is selectable from a drill mode, an automated drive mode and one or more user-defined drive modes. Each of the user-defined drive modes specifies a different value of torque at which to interrupt transmission of torque to the output spindle. In an automated drive mode, the controller interrupt torque to the output spindle in an automated manner when a fastener being driven reaches a desired stopping position. In a selected one of the user-defined drive modes, the controller sets a value of a maximum current threshold in accordance with the selected one of the user-defined drive modes and interrupts torque to the output spindle when current measures exceeding the maximum current threshold.

Power tool having multiple operating modes

A wall panel system including a first wall panel, the first panel including at least a first panel hook portion. The system also including a second wall panel having a different configuration than the first wall panel. The second panel includes at least a second panel hook portion and a third panel hook portion opposing the second panel hook portion. The first wall panel is configured to engage with the second wall panel to create a wall panel assembly.

Wall hanging system

It is common for a power tool system from a manufacturer to include a battery pack that is designed and configured to mate and operate with at least one power tool and a battery charger. However, as systems have evolved it has become desirable to provide a battery pack that is designed and configured to mate and operate with at least one power tool and a first battery charger but not a second battery charger. The present disclosure provides a battery pack including a housing, a terminal block, a plurality of terminals, and a mechanical lockout for allowing engagement with a power tool and a first battery charger while preventing engagement with a second battery charger.

Battery pack for cordless devices

A power tool is provided which accommodates interchangeable tool heads. The power tool includes: a tool body having a housing and an electric motor mounted within the housing, as well as a tool head that releasably attaches via a mechanical connection and an electrical connection to the tool body. The tool releasably connects to the output shaft of the electric motor when the tool head is attached to the tool body. A tool switch interposed between a power source for the electric motor and the electric motor is operable to supply power from the power source to the electric motor. A tool accessory switch interposed between the tool accessory and the power source for the electric motor is operable to supply power from the power source via the electrical connection to the tool accessory, thereby providing the tool operator independent control of the tool accessory.

Power tool having interchangeable tool heads with an independent accessory switch

This application relates to a system and method for wirelessly charging battery packs. More particularly, the application relates to a system and method for wirelessly charging battery packs stored in a container. In one implementation, the system includes a sealable storage box having a transmitter for transmitting RF power to at least one battery pack stored in the storage box.

Wireless charging system

A system for identifying a type of a power tool, the system comprising: a power tool having an electric motor; and a usage attachment configured to couple to the power tool, the usage attachment having a vibration sensor that generates vibration data when the power tool vibrates, a memory that stores the vibration data generated by the vibration sensor, and an identification subsystem that receives the vibration data from the memory, and identifies the type of the power tool by comparing the received vibration data to predetermined vibration data of a known type of power tool.

System and method for identifying a power tool

A drill system is provided. The drill system includes a drill driver and a secondary computing device. One or more descriptors for a fastening application is entered into the secondary computing device and is being received by a controller residing in the power tool. The descriptors are indicative of a fastening application to be performed by the power tool and are received via a wireless data link from the secondary computing device located remotely from the power tool. A parameter of the drill driver is changed in response to the input of the descriptor in the secondary computing device.
