Pass-through brushless motor

A power tool comprising:

• a housing including a motor housing portion and a handle housing portion;
• a rechargeable battery pack coupled to the handle housing portion;
• a motor defining a motor axis and supported by the motor housing portion, the motor including
• a stator assembly forming a central bore, the stator assembly including a stator frame and a plurality of coil windings configured to be selectively powered by the rechargeable battery pack, the stator frame includes an opening extending therethrough in a direction perpendicular to the motor axis, and
• a rotor assembly extending through the central bore of the stator assembly and configured to rotate as the plurality of coil windings are powered by the rechargeable battery pack, the rotor assembly includes a first rotor portion and a second rotor portion with a gap defined therebetween;
• and
• an output drive assembly supported by the motor housing portion and defining an output drive axis oriented perpendicular to the motor axis, the output drive assembly extends through the opening of the stator frame and is at least partially disposed within the gap to be operably coupled to the rotor assembly.

A power tool comprising:

• a housing
• a rechargeable battery pack coupled to the housing;
• a motor supported by the housing and configured to be selectively powered by the rechargeable battery pack for rotation, the motor including
• a stator assembly including a stator frame having an opening extending therethrough and a plurality of coil windings, the plurality of coil windings includes a first coil winding and a second coil winding that are disposed on opposite sides of the opening, and
• a rotor assembly disposed within the stator assembly and configured to rotate as the plurality of coil windings are powered by the rechargeable battery pack;
• and
• an output drive assembly supported by the housing, the output drive assembly extending through the opening of the stator assembly and past the first and second coil windings to be operably coupled to the rotor assembly for reciprocating motion in a direction perpendicular to the motor.
