  • Active cooling for power tool gripping surfaces
    Patent number: 9919411
    Abstract: A power tool includes a housing having a front portion and a handle portion. The front portion defines a cavity that encloses a motor and includes a gripping portion surrounding the cavity. An insulating cover is provided on the gripping portion of the housing and includes a gripping surface. A thermoelectric cooling unit is located between the gripping portion of the housing and the insulating cover. The thermoelectric cooling unit has a cold side positioned in thermal contact with an inner surface of the insulating cover and a hot side positioned in contact with an outer surface of the gripping portion of the housing. The thermoelectric cooling unit is configured to absorb thermal energy from the insulating cover via the cold side of the thermoelectric cooling unit and to release the absorbed heat via the hot side of the thermoelectric cooling unit.
