Electric motor power cord for portable electrical assembly

A drill assembly comprising:

• a housing comprising:
• an outer side enclosure wall,
• an inner side enclosure wall spaced from said outer side enclosure wall,
• a top enclosure wall, and
• a bottom enclosure wall spaced from said top enclosure wall with said top enclosure wall and said bottom enclosure wall defining a length along a central axis therebetween,
• wherein said outer side enclosure wall, said inner side enclosure wall, said top enclosure wall and said bottom enclosure wall define a cavity therebetween;
• a power module coupled to said housing;
• an electric motor coupled to said housing and moveable relative to said power module between a plurality of operating positions including a resting position, an extended position, and one or more intermediate positions between said resting position and said extended position;
• and
• an electric motor power cord contained within said cavity and operatively connected to said electric motor at a first end and to said power module at a second end opposite said first end, said electric motor power cord circularly wrapped within the cavity about said central axis in a clockwise or counterclockwise direction so as to define a plurality of windings, and with said plurality of windings having a pitch defined by a distance measured along said central axis between an upper surface of an uppermost one of said plurality of windings and a lower surface of a lowermost one of said plurality of windings;
• a slide assembly coupled to said housing and said electric motor;
• a gear rotatably coupled to said housing and configured to engage said slide assembly to move said electric motor in said first direction or in said second direction;
• an arbor coupled to said electric motor and configured for rotation by said electric motor;
• a cutter coupled to said arbor;
• and
• a magnetic base mounted to said housing,
• wherein said plurality of windings are configured so that said pitch is a maximum pitch when said electric motor is in said resting position, and said pitch is a minimum pitch when said electric motor is in said extended position, said maximum pitch having a greater distance than said minimum pitch,
• wherein said uppermost one of said plurality of windings is at a minimum gap distance along said length from said top enclosure wall and said lowermost one of said plurality of windings remains adjacent to said lower enclosure wall when said electric motor is in said resting position, with said minimum gap distance corresponding to said maximum pitch of said plurality of windings, and/or
• wherein said uppermost one of said plurality of windings is at a maximum gap distance along said length from said top enclosure wall and said lowermost one of said plurality of windings remains adjacent to said lower enclosure wall when said electric motor is in said extended position, with said maximum gap distance corresponding to said minimum pitch of said plurality of windings.
