Power tools described herein include a housing, a brushless direct current (DC) motor, a non-conductive terminal mount, and a plurality of terminals. The housing has a motor housing portion, a handle portion, and a battery pack interface. The brushless DC motor is located within the motor housing portion and has a rotor and a stator. The non-conductive terminal mount is located on an outer peripheral surface of the stator and includes an angled surface. The angled surface is not substantially parallel to a longitudinal axis of the motor. The plurality of terminals is mounted on the angled surface of the terminal mount. Each of the terminals is angled in a first direction such that the terminals are not substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis of the motor.

There is disclosed an orthopaedic impactor, comprising: a strike assembly arranged to impart a force to an object; and a winding arranged to receive a current and thereby generate a magnetic field. The winding is arranged to interact with the strike assembly so that, in use, a magnetic field generated by the winding causes the strike assembly to move so as to impart the force to the object.

Method for the open-loop and closed-loop control of a power tool, in particular a chipping hammer, having a drive, a control device, a sensor device, a transmission device and a handle apparatus, wherein the handle apparatus contains a lever element with a signal transmitter, said lever element being pivotable relative to the sensor device. The method includes: sensing a first and second position of the signal transmitter by the sensor device; determining an acceleration of the signal transmitter from the first position to the second position by the control device; setting a first rotational speed for the drive by the control device for the output of a first impact energy value of the transmission device when the determined acceleration reaches a first predetermined threshold value or setting a second rotational speed for the drive by the control device for the output of a second impact energy value of the transmission device when the determined acceleration reaches a second predetermined threshold value. A handle apparatus on a power tool, in particular a chipping hammer, is also provided.

An impact tool includes a tubular tool holder, a hammering mechanism, a resistor, and a biasing member. An impact element moves forward and rearward in conjunction with a piston. An intermediate element is housed movable back and forth between the impact element and a tip tool. The intermediate element abuts on a rear end of the tip tool to indirectly transmit a striking force from the impact element to the tip tool in a normal striking. The resistor is configured to abut on at least one of the intermediate element and the tip tool to apply a resistance to a front-rear movement of at least one of the intermediate element and the tip tool in a non-striking state. The biasing member disposed on the tool holder biases the resistor to a side of at least one of the intermediate element and the tip tool.

A power tool (1) is provided, especially a hammer drill and/or a chiseling hammer drill, including a percussive mechanism (12) with a percussive element (13) to generate a percussive pulse onto a tool (1), the element being reversibly movable along a longitudinal axis (R) by a magnetic field in order to generate the percussive pulse, and including at least a first and a second coil device (1, 2) to generate the magnetic field. Each coil device (1, 2) has at least a first coil ring (3) with a first radius (R1) and a second coil ring (4) with a second radius (R2), whereby the first radius (R1) of the first coil ring (3) is greater than the second radius (R2) of the second coil ring (4), so that a space (S) is formed, at least in certain areas, between the at least first and second coil rings (3, 4), whereby a fluid (L), especially an air stream, that serves to cool the coil device (1, 2) can flow through the space.

There is disclosed an orthopaedic impactor, comprising: a strike assembly arranged to impart a force to an object; and a winding arranged to receive a current and thereby generate a magnetic field. The winding is arranged to interact with the strike assembly so that, in use, a magnetic field generated by the winding causes the strike assembly to move so as to impart the force to the object.

A reciprocating tool includes a motor, a motion converting mechanism, a body housing, an inner housing, a support body, and a counterweight. The motion converting mechanism is operably coupled to a motor shaft and is configured to convert rotation into a linear reciprocating motion along a driving axis. The inner housing is within the body housing and houses at least a portion of the motion converting mechanism. The support body is originally separate from the inner housing and is attached to the inner housing in the body housing. The counterweight is operably coupled to the motion converting mechanism and is configured to be driven by the motion converting mechanism. The counterweight is supported by the support body to be pivotable around a pivot axis that extends in a direction orthogonal to the driving axis. At least a portion of the counterweight is housed in the inner housing.

A percussion tool comprises a housing, an electric motor positioned within the housing, a percussion mechanism driven by the electric motor and including a striker supported for reciprocation in the housing, a battery pack removably coupled to the housing for providing power to the electric motor when coupled to the housing, and an electronic controller including an electronic processor and a memory. The electronic controller is coupled to the electric motor and configured to activate the motor and determine whether the percussion tool is in a loaded condition. In response to determining that the percussion tool is in the loaded condition, the electronic controller is configured to operate the motor in accordance with a predetermined profile and in response to determining that the percussion tool is in a no load condition, the electronic controller is configured to operate the motor at a no-load speed.

A power tool includes a transmission mechanism provided with transmission gears for making an output shaft output different rotational speeds, where the number of transmission gears is greater than or equal to 3; the transmission mechanism includes multi-stage planetary gear sets; each stage of the multi-stage planetary gear sets includes one layer of planet gears in an axial direction; the total number of the multi-stage planetary gear sets is less than or equal to the number of transmission gears; and among the multi-stage planetary gear sets in the multiple stages, a first-stage planetary gear set closest to a motor shaft includes a first drive state and a first variable state, and any one of the remaining planetary gear sets is connected to a clutch mechanism.

To reduce size increase, a power tool includes a motor, an output shaft located frontward from the motor, rotatable by the motor, and having an insertion hole extending rearward from a front end of the output shaft, a bearing supporting the output shaft in a rotatable manner, a locking member supported by the output shaft and movable to a locking position for locking a tip tool placed in the insertion hole and to an unlocking position for unlocking the tip tool, a bit sleeve surrounding the output shaft, and movable to a movement-restricting position for restricting radially outward movement of the locking member and to a movement-permitting position for permitting radially outward movement of the locking member, and an operable member operable to move the bit sleeve and at least partly overlapping the bearing in an axial direction.
