Abstract:
A tool communication adapter system is provided. One exemplary system described herein includes a tool communication adapter having an adapter body including first and second mechanical attachment ends, a first electrical connector proximate the first mechanical attachment end and a second electrical connector proximate the second mechanical attachment end, a first supply channel having an opening extending through the body between the first and second mechanical attachment ends, and including a first supply channel connector at the first attachment end and a second supply channel connector at the second mechanical attachment end, and a control unit in communication with the first and second electrical connectors. The control unit is configured to provide a filter command signal to a protective filter in response to a signal received at the first electrical connector. An exemplary tool communication adapter thus allows communication between a tool and personal protective equipment.

Claim (Index 18):
A system comprising:\n a tool comprising a user input configured to generate a tool activation signal; a tool power controller configured to provide power to the tool in response to the user input; a tool communication adapter attachable between the tool and the tool power controller such that the tool power controller provides power to the tool in response to activation of the user input; and a protective filter movable between a closed position and an open position in response to a filter command signal, wherein the tool communication adapter is configured to provide unique identity codes within at least one of the tool activation signal and the filter command signal to prevent undesired communication with nearby protective filters or tools.
