    Abstract: A battery pack that includes a housing connectable to and supportable by a tool. The battery pack also includes a controller having a processor and a memory. The controller is connected to one or more sensors which provide data to the controller related to operational characteristics of the battery pack. The controller stores the operational characteristics of the battery pack in the memory. The battery pack also includes a battery pack black box. The controller communicates with the black box using a wired communication bus and transmits the stored operational characteristics of the battery pack to the black box. The battery pack black box is capable of transmitting the stored operational characteristics wirelessly to a device external to the battery pack.

    Abstract: A combination of a floor cleaner and a cleaning apparatus for cleaning the floor cleaner is disclosed. The floor cleaner includes a base movable along a surface to be cleaned, a brushroll motor, and a brushroll rotatable about a brushroll axis relative to the base by the brushroll motor. The brushroll has a brushroll radius defined from the brushroll axis to an outer perimeter of the brushroll. The cleaning apparatus includes a tray that selectively removably receives a portion of the floor cleaner in a mounted position. The tray includes a brushroll-receiving portion to receive the brushroll of the floor cleaner. The combination further includes a light source directed toward the brushroll when the brushroll is received in the brushroll-receiving portion of the tray. The light source is operable to emit ultraviolet light onto the brushroll, the ultraviolet light having a wavelength less than 400 nm.

    Abstract: Centrifugal clutch mechanisms, and transmissions and lawnmowers having centrifugal clutch mechanisms are provided. A centrifugal clutch mechanism includes a clutch bell comprising an annular wall and a circular ring extending away from the annular wall to define an internal cavity, wherein the circular ring comprises an inward facing surface defining a drive surface. The centrifugal clutch mechanism also includes a plurality of centrifugal weights disposed in the internal cavity and an inward biasing element engaged with the centrifugal weights. The inward biasing element biases the centrifugal weights towards a disengaged position in which the centrifugal weights do not interface with drive surface, and upon application of a sufficient centrifugal force, the centrifugal weights are configured to transition to an engaged position in which the centrifugal weights interface with the drive surface.

    Abstract: A lithium-ion battery positive electrode material, containing lithium carbonate and lithium hydroxide, the molar ratio of the lithium carbonate to the lithium hydroxide being 4:1-14:1, preferably 5:1-12:1, and more preferably 8:1; the content of the lithium carbonate and lithium hydroxide is 0.1 wt %-10 wt %, preferably 1 wt %-7 wt %, and more preferably 4 wt %. By adding lithium carbonate and lithium hydroxide, and controlling the total amount of lithium carbonate and lithium hydroxide in the positive electrode material as well as the proportions of lithium carbonate and lithium hydroxide, rapid activation of a CID during overcharging of a battery is made possible, thus improving safety performance and avoiding abnormal activation of the CID before overcharging occurs.
