Abstract
A power tool includes a main body portion and a grip portion. The main body portion includes a motor unit. The grip portion extends from the main body portion between a front end and a rear end of the main body portion. The main body portion further includes an auxiliary handle mounting structure disposed between the rear end of the main body portion and a rearmost end of a region where the grip portion meets the main body portion. An auxiliary handle member is coupled to the auxiliary handle mounting structure of the main body portion.
Claims25
A power tool comprising:
- a main body portion including a motor unit;
- and
- a grip portion extending from the main body portion between a front end and a rear end of the main body portion,
- the main body portion further including an auxiliary handle mounting structure including a generally cylindrical surface disposed between the rear end of the main body portion and a rearmost end of a region where the grip portion meets the main body portion.
A power tool comprising:
- a main body portion including a motor unit including a rotor and a stator;
- and
- a grip portion extending from the main body portion between a front end and a rear end of the main body portion,
- the main body portion further including an auxiliary handle mounting structure disposed between the rear end of the main body portion and a rearmost end of a region where the grip portion meets the main body portion, and
- the auxiliary handle mounting structure is disposed at a position at least partially overlapping at least one of the rotor and the stator as viewed along a direction perpendicular to a rotational axis of the motor unit.
A power tool comprising:
- a main body portion including a motor unit including a rotor and a stator;
- and
- a grip portion extending from the main body portion between a front end and a rear end of the main body portion,
- the main body portion further including an auxiliary handle mounting structure disposed at a position the auxiliary handle mounting structure is disposed at the position at least partially overlapping at least one of the rotor and the stator as viewed along a direction perpendicular to a rotational axis of the motor unit.
A power tool comprising:
- a main body portion including a motor unit;
- and
- a grip portion extending from the main body portion,
- the main body portion further including an auxiliary handle mounting structure defining a through-hole extending through the main body portion, the through-hole being defined by a pair of openings formed in an outer housing cover on each side of the main body portion and a hollow space inside the main body portion extending between the openings.
A power tool comprising:
- a housing including a main body portion and a grip portion extending from the main body portion;
- and
- a motor assembly disposed in the main body portion of the housing, the motor assembly including a motor unit including a brush and a commutator, and a generally cylindrical motor casing member enclosing the motor unit,
- the main body portion of the housing including an auxiliary handle mounting structure configured and arranged to be coupled to an auxiliary handle member, the auxiliary handle mounting structure is disposed at a position at least partially overlapping at least one of the brush and the commutator as viewed along a direction perpendicular to a rotational axis of the motor unit.
