    Abstract: Systems and methods for management of material stresses present at transitions between facets of an anvil and the anvil shaft are described. In one aspect, an apparatus includes an impact tool anvil extending along an axis of extension and having a faceted drive end and a shaft body which is connected to the faceted drive end through a transition region that couples respective faces of the faceted drive end to the shaft body, the transition region including a sweeping radius surface having a first axial end and a second axial end, the first axial end connected to a respective face of the faceted drive end, the first axial end having a tangency with the respective face of the faceted drive end; and an angular transition having a slope that radially rises from the second axial end of the sweeping radius surface to the shaft body.

    Abstract: Illustrative embodiments of impact tools with impact mechanisms rigidly coupled to electric motors are disclosed. In at least one illustrative embodiment, an impact tool may comprise an impact mechanism, an electric motor, and a control circuit. The impact mechanism may comprise a hammer and an anvil, the hammer being configured to rotate about a first axis and to periodically impact the anvil to drive rotation of the anvil about the first axis. The electric motor may comprise a rotor that is rigidly coupled to the impact mechanism, the electric motor being configured to drive rotation of the hammer about the first axis, The control circuit may be configured to supply a current to the electric motor and to prevent the current from exceeding a threshold in response to the hammer impacting the anvil.
