Abstract: 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.

Abstract: A charging box has a housing with first and second ends, charging bays, a cover, and a lock assembly. The charging bays are between the first end and the second end. Each of the charging bays removably receives a battery pack in an insertion direction. The cover pivots on the housing nearer to the second end than to the first end. The cover moves between an open position and a closed position. The lock assembly includes a staple, a slot in the cover, a protrusion coupled to the housing adjacent the staple, and a tether coupled to the housing. The staple is nearer to the first end than to the second end. The staple receives a padlock. The slot receives the staple therethrough. The tether has a distal end with a loop. The loop is receivable about the protrusion.

Abstract: A data logger device for a power tool including a housing, a power tool interface provided at the top of the housing and configured to be received in a corresponding interface of the power tool, and a battery pack interface provided at the bottom of the housing and configured to receive a corresponding interface of a battery pack providing operating power to the power tool. The data logger also includes a tool terminal block, a battery terminal block provided, and bus bars connecting the tool terminal block to the battery terminal block to provide pass through power from the battery pack to the power tool. The data logger is configured to obtain data related to power tool operation, and export, using a transceiver, the data to a user device.

Abstract: 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.

Abstract: A wireless hoist system including a first hoist device having a first motor and a first wireless transceiver and a second hoist device having a second motor and a second wireless transceiver. 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.
