Abstract
A powered tool for repairing a tire includes an electric power unit, a control unit, a trigger unit, and a speed switching unit. The electric power unit includes a driven shaft adapted to output kinetic energy and a motor driving the driven shaft to rotate. The control unit includes an actuating switch operable to output an actuated signal associated with a movement distance of an actuator and a processing module configured to control rotation of the rotating member at one of first and second rotational speeds according to the actuated signal. The speed switching unit is operable to move between first and second rotational speed positions such that the actuator travels first or second distances as being pushed by the trigger unit.

A powered tool for repairing a tire, comprising:
- a housing unit that extends along an axis;
- an electric power unit that is mounted to said housing unit and that includes
- a driven shaft rotatable and adapted to output kinetic energy, and
- a motor for converting electrical energy into kinetic energy, and including
- a rotating member that is rotatable and that drives rotation of said driven shaft;
- a control unit that is mounted to said housing unit, and that includes
- an actuating switch including an actuator that is movable, said actuating switch being operable to output an actuated signal that is associated with a movement distance of said actuator, and
- a processing module electrically connected to said actuating switch and said motor, and configured to control rotation of said rotating member of said motor at one of a first rotational speed and a second rotational speed according to the actuated signal;
- a trigger unit that is mounted to said housing unit and that includes a trigger operable to actuate movement of said actuator;
- and
- a speed switching unit that is mounted on said housing unit and that includes a speed changing switch operable to move relative to said trigger between a first rotational speed position and a second rotational speed position, said speed changing switch being distal from said trigger when being at the first rotational speed position such that said actuator travels a first distance as being pushed by said trigger, said speed changing switch being adjacent to said trigger and disposed between said trigger and said housing unit when being at the second rotational speed position such that said actuator travels a second distance that is smaller than said first distance as being pushed by said trigger.
