Electric power tool and dust collector
First Claim
Patent Images
1. An electric power tool comprising:
- a wireless transmission unit that transmits a wireless signal to a dust collector; and
a transmission control unit that causes the wireless transmission unit to transmit a linking signal to the dust collector, to thereby cause the dust collector to operate in a linked manner,wherein an operation mode of the transmission control unit is shifted, by operation of an operation unit, from a normal mode in which the dust collector is caused to operate in the linked manner to a pairing mode in which the electric power tool is caused to be registered in the dust collector as a link target appliance, andwherein the transmission control unit is configured, when in the pairing mode, to cause the wireless transmission unit to transmit a pairing request signal to the dust collector, to thereby cause the electric power tool to be registered in the dust collector as the link target appliance.

Abstract
An electric power tool includes a wireless transmission unit and a transmission control unit that causes the wireless transmission unit to transmit a linking signal to a dust collector to thereby cause the dust collector to operate in a linked manner. An operation mode of the transmission control unit is shifted from a normal mode to a pairing mode by operation of an operation unit. When in the pairing mode, the transmission control unit causes the wireless transmission unit to transmit a pairing request signal to the dust collector. In this way, the electric power tool can be registered in the dust collector as a link target appliance.

13. A dust collector comprising:
-
a motor for dust collection; a wireless reception unit that receives at least one wireless signal transmitted from at least one electric power tool; and a reception control unit that drives the motor in accordance with at least one linking signal received by the wireless reception unit, wherein, when at least one pairing request signal is received by the wireless reception unit, an operation mode of the reception control unit is shifted from a normal mode in which the motor is driven in accordance with the at least one linking signal to a pairing mode, and wherein the reception control unit is configured, when in the pairing mode, to register a specific electric power tool that has transmitted one of the at least one pairing request signal, among the at least one electric power tool, as a link target appliance that will transmit one of the at least one linking signal for driving the motor. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
