A power operated rotary knife assembly including a power operated rotary knife having an annular rotary knife blade, a trim guide, and a drive mechanism for driving the rotary knife blade about an axis of rotation. The assembly also includes a portable power unit, a vacuum assembly and a flexible shaft drive transmission coupled between the power operated rotary knife and the portable power unit. The portable power unit includes a drive motor assembly providing a rotational power source which is operatively coupled to the drive mechanism through the flexible drive transmission to rotate the rotary knife blade. The portable power unit also includes a blower assembly providing vacuum pressure at an inlet duct side, the vacuum assembly being in fluid communication with the inlet duct side to generate a vacuum pressure condition in a region of a cutting opening defined by the rotary knife blade and the trim guide.

Power operated rotary knife with notched rotary knife blade and trim guide

A combination of a rotary knife blade and a trim guide for a power operated rotary knife. The annular rotary knife blade supported for rotation about a central axis of rotation in a direction of rotation and rotating with respect to the trim guide, the knife blade including a blade section extending from an annular body, the lower end of the blade section defining a plurality of circumferentially spaced apart notches including an opening at the lower end and a central open portion defined by a peripheral wall, the peripheral wall including an arcuate cutting portion adjacent the lower end of the blade section. The trim guide including a guide section defining a plurality of circumferentially spaced apart notches extending from a lower end, each of the plurality of notches including a shearing portion in overlapping axial alignment with the arcuate cutting portions of the blade section.

The present invention provides an electronic plumbing fixture fitting, such as an electronic faucet. The electronic plumbing fixture fitting includes a wand hose and a hose bracket. The hose bracket is operable to connect to a mounting shank and to the wand hose. The hose bracket is operable to position the wand hose between a mixed water outlet of a flow module and an inlet of the mounting shank such that a portion of the wand hose extends in a loop between the hose bracket and the inlet of the mounting shank. When installed, the hose bracket is in direct contact with the wand hose between the mixed water outlet of the flow module and the inlet of the mounting shank.
