摘要:
A system of cordless power tools includes a cordless power tool adapted to removably receive a rechargeable battery pack. The battery pack and the power tool can have complementary grooves and rails or L-shaped surfaces that aid in aligning the positive and negative blade terminals of the battery pack to the positive and negative tool terminals, respectively, of the power tool.

A wet/dry utility vacuum with a canister, a powerhead assembly with a fan, a shut-off device that prevents the fan from drawing liquids into the fan inlet when a volume of the liquid in the canister exceeds a predetermined volume. The powerhead assembly includes a controller that permits the utility vacuum to be operated in a desired power mode so that the user may employ either an AC power source or a DC power source, such as a battery pack, for example. In some applications, the battery pack may be interchangeable with the battery packs of various cordless tools, including drill/drivers and saws. A tool set and a method for operating a battery-powered tool set are also provided.

摘要:
A modified barrel device (1) and method of retarding injection timing of EMD-type unit injectors by a desired amount of crank degrees includes the steps of providing a modified pump barrel (8) whose port locations differ, in their spacing from the top shoulder of the associated barrel, that corresponds to the spacing from the top face of the associated follower, from the spacing of the barrel port sealing location of the pump barrel of the original injector from the top shoulder of the associated barrel, that corresponds to the top face of the associated follower (2), such difference in spacing being by an amount equal to the amount of retardation, in linear units, that corresponds to the desired amount of retardation in crank degrees, and assembling the modified pump barrel (8) into an injector assembly.

A user interface enables the display of browser information in a space conserving fashion. A plurality of icons may be displayed along a bar adjacent a browser display window. When an icon is selected, an appropriate panel may be displayed. A uniform resource locator text entry block may only be displayed when an appropriate icon is selected. Thus the extra space that is lost through the display of the text entry block is only encountered when the user actually needs to make a uniform resource locator text entry.
