    Abstract: A braking mechanism for an electric motor includes an electromagnet configured to be selectively energized in response to a control signal. The braking mechanism also includes a first braking member coupled for co-rotation with an output shaft of the electric motor. The first braking member is configured to movable relative to the output shaft between a first position and a second position. The braking mechanism also includes a second braking member rotationally fixed relative to the first braking member. When the electromagnet is energized, the electromagnet causes the first braking member to move from the first position to the second position. The first braking member engages the second braking member to brake the electric motor in one of the first position or the second position.

    Abstract: A rotary hammer includes a motor, a spindle coupled to the motor for receiving torque from the motor, a piston at least partially received within the spindle for reciprocation therein, a striker received within the spindle for reciprocation in response to reciprocation of the piston, and an anvil received within the spindle and positioned between the striker and the tool bit. The anvil is configured to impart axial impacts to the tool bit in response to reciprocation of the striker. The rotary hammer also includes a retainer received within the spindle for selectively securing the striker in an idle position in which it is inhibited from reciprocating within the spindle. The retainer includes a detent member configured to engage the striker to secure the striker in the idle position, and a tensing element configured to bias the detent member radially inward toward engagement with the striker.
