Patent ID: 11071427

Abstract:
A handheld power tool comprises a cruise control actuator (22), which is mechanically connected to a controller input actuator (27) so as to variably move the controller input actuator (27) in a trigger direction (T) based on the position of the cruise control actuator (22). The cruise control actuator (22) is movable between a plurality of different, stable cruise speed positions, in which the cruise control actuator (22) is connected to said controller input actuator (20) in a unidirectional manner to allow a trigger (20) to move the controller input actuator (27) even further in the trigger direction (T) without moving the cruise control actuator (22). The cruise control actuator (22) is also movable to an “OFF” position in which it mechanically blocks the trigger (20) from moving the controller input actuator (27) in the trigger direction (T). Suggested figure for publication.
