Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 3
Claim 1
Independent Claim
147 words
An electric hand tool comprising a body case, a cell case coupled to said body case for relative rotation with respect thereto, a motor contained within said body case and including an output shaft, nickel-cadmium battery means contained within said cell case and adapted to energize said motor, contact means electrically coupled to said battery means, said contact means being movable between a circuit open position and a circuit closed position upon rotation of said cell case, a planetary gearing system having an input end coupled to the output shaft of said motor and an output end journalled in said body case, a tool holding chuck drivingly coupled to the output end of said planetary gearing system and means for selectively preventing rotation of the output end of said planetary gearing system when the tool holding chuck is to be opened for the removal of the tool.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
147 words
An electric hand tool comprising a body case, a cell case coupled to said body case for relative rotation with respect thereto, a motor contained within said body case and including an output shaft, nickel-cadmium battery means contained within said cell case and adapted to energize said motor, contact means electrically coupled to said battery means, said contact means being movable between a circuit open position and a circuit closed position upon rotation of said cell case, a planetary gearing system having an input end coupled to the output shaft of said motor and an output end journalled in said body case, a tool holding chuck drivingly coupled to the output end of said planetary gearing system and means for selectively preventing rotation of the output end of said planetary gearing system when the tool holding chuck is to be opened for the removal of the tool.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
93 words
The electric hand tool according to claim 1, wherein said means for preventing rotation of said output end of said planetary gearing system comprises a slot formed in said body casing at the end thereof adjacent said tool holding chuck and a hole formed in the output end of said planetary gearing system whereby, when a pin is placed in said slot and in said hole, rotation of said output end of said planetary gearing system relative to said body case is prevented to thereby permit said tool holding chuck to be opened.
