Abstract: In a brushless motor, a rotor core is fixed to a shaft. Through holes are formed in the rotor core, and permanent magnets are inserted to be fixed in place in the through holes. A stator core is fixed to an outer circumferential surface of the rotor core such that the stator core faces the outer circumferential surface of the rotor core. Stator coils are provided on the stator core via insulators so as to configure magnetic flux generating portions. A cooling fan is provided in front of a stator which is configured by the stator core and the stator coils. Axial position of blades of the fan and axial positions of the rotor core and the permanent magnets partially overlap each other in their positions.

Abstract: A power tool includes a housing, an electric motor accommodated in the housing, a secondary battery that supplies electric power to the electric motor, a handle provided at the housing, a trigger switch provided at the handle for controlling electric power supply to the electric motor, a residual capacity display for displaying a residual capacity of the secondary battery, and a lock-release switch provided at the handle and configured to allow the trigger switch to be operable and to start displaying the residual capacity at the residual capacity display upon manipulation to the lock-release switch.

Abstract: According to one embodiment, an impact tool includes: a motor; and a hammer that is connected to the motor and that has a striking-side surface; and an anvil that is journalled to be rotatable with respect to the hammer, that has a struck-side surface and that provides a striking power to a tip tool, wherein the motor is drivable in: a first driving mode in which the motor is continuously driven in a normal rotation; a second driving mode in which the motor is intermittently driven only in the normal rotation; and a third driving mode in which the motor is intermittently driven in the normal rotation and in a reverse rotation.

Abstract: An impact tool including: a motor; a speed-reduction mechanism that reduces a torque of the motor; a hammer connected to an output portion of the speed-reduction mechanism; and an anvil that can be swung relatively to the hammer, wherein the hammer is directly driven by the motor, and wherein the impact tool can operate in: a drill mode in which an end tool attached to the anvil is rotated by rotating the hammer in one direction so as to rotate the anvil; and an impact mode in which the end tool attached to the anvil is rotated while the hammer intermittently strikes the anvil.

Abstract: An impact tool including: a motor; a hammer connected to the motor; and an anvil struck by the hammer by driving the motor alternately in a normal rotation and a reverse rotation, wherein a magnitude of a fastening torque by the anvil is calculated in accordance with a current value of a current supplied to the motor immediately after the striking.

Abstract: According to an aspect of the present invention, there is provided an impact tool including: a motor drivable in an intermittent driving mode; a hammer connected to the motor; an anvil to be struck by the hammer to thereby rotate/strike a tip tool; and a control unit that controls a rotation of the motor by switching a driving pulse supplied to the motor in accordance with a load applied onto the tip tool.

Abstract: According to an aspect of the present invention, there is provided an impact tool including: a motor; a hammer connected to an output portion of the motor; and an anvil to be struck by the hammer in a rotation direction and having a rotary shaft, the hammer striking the anvil in the rotation direction by driving the motor in pulses, wherein the anvil is provided in front of the hammer, wherein the hammer is driven in pulses by the motor, and wherein a rotation angle of the hammer is substantially proportional to a rotation angle of the motor.
