Has anyone ever looked at https://patents.google.com and looked at any of the tool patents? I watched a video of a guy who did some patent research for potential NPS19 tools and it got me curious what other companies have been working on. Here is his video.
I found an interesting one from Stanley Black and Decker that appears to be a new OMT connection. It appears to look very similar to starlock but it keeps a variation of the opening of the current SB&D OMT system. Also there will be two versions. I am guessing like what Starlock Plus is to Starlock Max. Might be both the SB&D connection and Starlock compatible?https://patents.google.com/patent/EP3348367A1/en?q=dewalt&assignee=black+and+decker&sort=new
I thought if anyone else has patents they would like to share they could post them below.
That is pretty interesting stuff. I know a ton of guys go there and find some cool stuff. Thanks for sharing, this is good stuff.
welcome back @Eric – TIA haven’t seen you on the forum in awhile. I find patents to be interesting even if they never become an actual product released to the public.
LOL, it has been crazy. I miss this place. Lots of good people and cool information like what you found above.
