Power Tool
First Claim
1. A power tool comprising:
- a housing having an air intake hole and an air exhaust hole formed therein, the housing having an inner surface, a brushless motor having an outer surface disposed in the housing, a first endface near the air intake hole, and a second endface near the air exhaust hole;
a cover member covering at least one of the first endface and the second endface for preventing dust from entering the brushless motor; and
wherein the inner surface of the housing and outer surface of the brushless motor define a circulation path providing communication between the air intake hole and the air exhaust hole.

Abstract
A power tool includes a housing, a brushless motor, and a cover member. The housing has an air intake hole and an air exhaust hole formed therein, the housing having an inner surface. The brushless motor has an outer surface disposed in the housing, a first endface near the air intake hole, and a second endface near the air exhaust hole. The cover member covers at least one of the first endface and the second endface for preventing dust from entering the brushless motor. The inner surface of the housing and outer surface of the brushless motor define a circulation path providing communication between the air intake hole and the air exhaust hole.

18. A power tool comprising:
-
a housing having an inner surface; a brushless motor supported by the housing, the brushless motor comprising; a stator having; a cylinder part having an inner peripheral surface, and an outer peripheral surface held by the inner surface of the housing; and a plurality of teeth extending in an axial direction of the cylinder part and protruding radially inward from the inner peripheral surface; a coil having; a wound portion wound along the teeth; and a beginning portion connecting the wound portion to the circuit board and being formed in a bent shape so as not to interfere with the wound portion; a rotor concentric with the stator and rotatably disposed on a side of the inner peripheral surface of the stator; and an insulating member having; an annular part having an axial end of the stator; and a stator-covering part covering the teeth for insulating the teeth and the coil, the insulating member being held on the stator by winding the coil about the teeth covered by the stator-covering part; and a circuit board held on the annular part and electrically connected to the coil and controlling the brushless motor.
