Abstract:
A power tool includes a chuck assembly having a driveline axis. A motor housing extends from an end cap portion to a drive end. The end cap portion includes an end cap bumper coupled to the end cap portion that extends radially outward with respect to the driveline axis. A handle extends from the motor housing along a handle axis and defines a battery receptacle. A mode selector ring is rotatably coupled to the housing assembly about the driveline axis between the chuck assembly and the motor housing drive end. The mode selector ring includes a drive end bumper extending radially outward with respect to the driveline axis. The power tool may rest upon a flat surface with only the end cap bumper and drive end bumper contacting the surface when a battery pack is inserted into the battery receptacle.
Abstract:
A computer case for protecting a computer. The computer case comprising a front housing and a rear housing. The front housing including a first aperture operable to allow a user to operate the computer. The rear housing pivotally coupled to the front housing, the rear housing including a latch for securing the computer between the front housing and the rear housing, a battery receptacle for receiving a battery, an electrical interface for electrical communication with the computer, an electrical input, and a controller. Wherein the controller is operable to receive power from the battery, provide power to the computer via the electrical interface, receive an electrical signal from the electrical input, and output the electrical signal to the computer via the electrical interface.
Abstract:
A clamp meter configured to receive a removable and rechargeable battery pack. The clamp meter includes a main body having a first axis, a handle, a clamp, a trigger, and a display. The handle has a second axis and includes a first recess configured to receive the battery pack. The first recess includes at least first and second electrical terminals which are exposed when the battery pack is not inserted into the first recess. The second axis forms an oblique angle with the first axis, and the battery pack is inserted into the first recess along the second axis. The clamp is coupled to the main body, aligned with the first axis, and operable to measure an electrical characteristic of a conductor based on an induced current. The trigger is operable to selectively open and close the clamp, and the display configured to display an indication of the electrical characteristic.
Abstract:
A visual inspection device includes a housing, a handle coupled to the housing that is grasped by a user while the device is in use, and an articulating camera unit coupled to the housing. The articulating camera unit includes a flexible cable with a first end coupled to the housing and a second end, a camera coupled to the second end of the flexible cable and operable to transmit image data through the flexible cable, and an articulation mechanism operable to articulate the camera relative to the flexible cable. The articulation mechanism includes a mount that is removably coupled to the housing. The articulating camera unit further includes a means for securing the mount to the housing in a plurality of different orientations relative to the housing. The visual inspection device further includes a display unit coupled to the housing to display an image transmitted by the articulating camera unit.

Abstract:
A battery charger and a method of charging a battery pack. The battery charger may generally include a housing defining an opening, a tray defining a receptacle operable to receive a battery pack, the tray being movable through the opening between an open position, in which the receptacle is accessible, and a closed position, in which the receptacle is closed, and a locking member movable relative to the housing between an unlocked position, in which the tray is movable between the open position and the closed position, and a locked position, in which the tray is retained in the closed position.
Abstract:
A carrier assembly for a light includes a main housing having a first end, a second end, and a main axis extending between the first end and the second end. The carrier assembly also includes an extension member slidably coupled to the main housing for movement along the main axis between a retracted position and an extended position. The extension member is biased toward the retracted position. The carrier assembly further includes a wireform hook extending from the first end of the main housing. The wireform hook includes two legs coupled to the extension member for movement with the extension member. The carrier assembly also includes a bracket member coupled to the wireform hook. The bracket member includes a base material extending between the two legs of the wireform hook and a second material overlaying a portion of the base material. The second material is softer than the base material.
