Abstract:

A charging module is configured to be removably coupled to a mobile work cart. The charging module includes a housing having a first end, a second end, a front side, and a rear side. The housing defines a cavity in the front side and includes a charging bay located within the cavity. The charging bay is configured to removably receive a battery pack to electrically connect the battery pack to the charging module. The charging module also includes a clamp coupled to the rear side of the housing. The clamp includes a handle portion and an arm. The clamp is movable relative to the housing between a deployed position and a retracted position. The clamp is biased toward the retracted position. The housing defines a recess in the rear side. When the clamp is in the retracted position the arm is received within the recess.
