| 20140005820 | CONTROLLING A BATTERY-OPERATED HANDHELD POWER TOOL | 01-02-2014 |
| 20140088753 | CONTROL SYSTEM FOR A FASTENING POWER TOOL - A fastening power tool such as a nailer is provided including a tool housing, an input unit actuated in response to an operator input, and a motor assembly including a motor housed within the tool housing. A control unit is provided including a controller programmable to control an operation of the motor and a decoder circuit configured to control a supply of power from a power source to the controller based on a status of the power source and a status of the input unit. The decoder circuit is configured to connect supply of power from the power source to the controller when the power tool is coupled to the power source prior to an engagement of the input unit, but disconnect the supply of power when the power tool is coupled to the power source after the engagement of the input unit. | 03-27-2014 |
| 20150292872 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR AUTOMATED PIPE MEASUREMENT AND ALIGNMENT - A method of aligning a portable machining system to a pipe end portion includes automatically moving a measurement sensor mounted to the portable machining system about the pipe end portion in a first measurement plane to generate a first set of measurement data. The method includes translating the measurement sensor from the first measurement plane to a second measurement plane. The method includes automatically moving the measurement sensor about the pipe end portion in the second measurement plane to generate a second set of measurement data and processing the first and second sets of measurement data with a processing module to determine a center and an axis of the pipe end portion. | 10-15-2015 |
| 20150293518 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR CONTROLLING THE MACHINING OF A PART BY A PORTABLE AUTOMATIC MACHINING APPARATUS - A method for controlling the machining of a part by a portable automatic machining apparatus. A machining tool configured to machine the part under the action of a pressurized fluid feeding the apparatus, and following a machining cycle, comprising a number of phases and a machining support equipment item. The machining support equipment item cooperates with the machining tool during the machining of the part. The method comprises the steps of measuring the pressure of the fluid at the outlet of the apparatus, analyzing the measured pressure to detect at least one phase of the cycle of machining of the part by the machining tool from the duly measured pressure, and controlling the machining support equipment item as a function of the phase of the machining cycle which has been detected. | 10-15-2015 |
| 20160046010 | SYSTEM FOR ENHANCING OPERATION OF POWER TOOLS - A system for facilitating power tool operation and positioning includes a power tool, remote detectable device attached to the power tool, a computing device communicating with the power tool to detect the location of the power tool relative to the computing device by detecting the location remote detectable device, and a display for displaying or inputting information into the computing device. The computing device is able to receive and store CAD dimensional data representing a layout of a work area and specific locations in that area where work need to be done. The computing device directs a positioning of the tool at a work site by comparing the position of the tool with the CAD layout position of a location where work needs to be done. | 02-18-2016 |
| 20160054721 | POWER TOOL - A power tool, which includes or is connectable to a computerised unit including a user interface, includes: a portable tool body supporting a motion sensor unit; and an activation unit by which the power tool may be set in two different modes, one production mode and one user interaction mode in which the power tool is configured to provide data from the motion sensor unit to interact with the user interface, such that a movement of the tool body is translated into an input to the user interface. | 02-25-2016 |
| 20160378097 | SECURITY LOCK-OUT FOR POWER TOOLS - A security lock-out device for power tools is provided. The lock-out device includes an input device configured to receive an input parameter and a control unit configured to store a predetermined value and evaluate whether or not the input parameter matches the predetermined value and to permit powered operation of the tool when the input parameter matches the predetermined value and prohibit powered operation of the tool when the input parameter does not match the predetermined value. | 12-29-2016 |
