An electric work machine is driven appropriately. An electric work machine includes a motor including a stator, a rotor rotatable relative to the stator, and a rotor shaft fixed to the rotor, an output unit drivable by the rotor shaft, a plurality of heat-radiating fins, a motor case having an outer surface receiving the plurality of heat-radiating fins and accommodating the stator and the rotor, a cooling fan located outside the motor case and rotatable by the rotor shaft, and a duct including a guide to guide air through the cooling fan to a fin passage between adjacent heat-radiating fins of the plurality of heat-radiating fins.

A ring element includes a convex, in particular rounded, surface element for arrangement on at least one axial end region of a winding section of an electric motor rotor. The surface element provides a minimum radius curvature for supporting an inner layer of a rotor winding on the winding head. An insulating lamination element for an electric motor rotor onto which a rotor winding is intended to be wound includes the ring element. An electric motor, in particular a universal motor, includes a rotor with a rotor winding having the ring element. An electric machine tool, in particular a handheld electric machine tool such as an angle grinder, a drill, a saw or the like, includes the electric motor.

A grasp-activated power switch is integrated within a handle for a hand-held power tool. The switch has an outer shell defining an inner channel with a first and second pin extending therein. The tool body has a first and second conductor. A motor within the tool body is electrically connected to one of the first or second conductors and to an internal battery. The internal battery is connected to the other of the first or second conductors. On its surface the outer shell has actuating and non-actuating areas. A manual grasping force when applied to the actuating area connects the first and second pins with the first and second conductors to complete an electrical circuit. The closure energizes the tool motor. With each grasp, the switch toggles power to the motor off or on, and when on, the motor transmits power through the inner channel.

A power tool including an electric motor is provided. The tool includes a substantially disc-shaped printed circuit board (PCB), power switches mounted on the PCB; magnetic sensors mounted on the PCB facing the motor; a heat sink in thermal communication with the power switches disposed between the PCB and the electric motor; and a molded casing structurally securing the heat sink relative to the PCB. The molded casing includes a center opening, at least one first opening provided at a first radial distance from the center opening arranged to receive the magnetic sensors therein, and at least one second opening provided at a second radial distance from the center opening arranged to securely receive the heat sink therein.

A power tool comprising a housing, an interface configured to receive a battery pack, a trigger for user control of power tool operation, at least one sensor configured to measure an operational characteristic of the power tool, and a controller. The controller is configured to receive a control signal from the trigger, control the power tool in response to the control signal, receive power tool operational data from the at least one sensor indicative of the operational characteristic of the power tool, and provide additional energy to the power tool via an auxiliary energy supply within the power tool housing based on the operational characteristic of the power tool.

A power tool includes a multi-phase BLDC motor, a plurality of switches, an input unit, and a controller. For each phase, the controller operates to vary power output to the motor between a first power and a second power by varying a duty cycle of a PWM signal from 0% to 100% while keeping a conduction band (CB) of corresponding motor switches and/or an advance angle (AA) at a predetermined value when the input unit moves between a first position and a predetermined position between the first and a second position. For each phase, the controller operates to increase the power output by the motor to greater than the second power by increasing the CB/AA to greater than the predetermined value while keeping the duty cycle of the PWM signal at 100% when the input unit moves between the predetermined position and the second position.

A power tool includes a housing and an electric motor supported within the housing. The housing includes a main housing portion that defines a rear opening. The electric motor includes an output shaft supporting a rotor assembly for rotation about a motor axis. The electric motor also includes a stator assembly surrounding the rotor assembly, and a rear end cap. The rear end cap supports a rear motor bearing that rotatably supports the output shaft at a rear end. A portion of the rear end cap resides within the rear opening to close the rear opening.

A rotor includes a yoke, an end cap, and a rotary shaft. The yoke is fixed relative to the end cap. The rotary shaft extends into the yoke. One end of the rotary shaft is connected to the end cap. The end cap is formed on the yoke and the rotary shaft by injection molding. The present invention further provides a motor and an electric tool including the rotor. In the rotor of this invention, the end cap is formed by injection molding, and the yoke and the rotary shaft are connected into a whole at the same time of forming the end cap. The traditional aluminium end cap is replaced with the molded end cap, which makes the rotor easier to fabricate and have a lighter weight and lower cost.

Positioning apparatus for an electric motor and bearing block, wherein the electric motor includes a rotor, a rotor shaft and a stator. The positioning apparatus is configured at least partially from an elastic material and in a substantially pot-like manner with an interior and can be positioned in a central recess of the bearing block for at least partially receiving a first end of the rotor shaft.

A hand tool machine device with a drive unit comprising at least one drive shaft, a transmission unit including at least one transmission element, a cooling unit including at least one fan element, and at least one sealing element configured to seal the transmission unit in at least on axial direction. The at least one fan element includes at least one receiving region configured to at least partially receive the at least one sealing element.
