  • Patent number: 8619430
    Abstract: A switch/circuit board unit and a hand-held tool equipped with such a switch/circuit board unit are proposed. The switch/circuit board unit is adapted for installation in a handle of the tool and has a switch and a circuit board. The switch/circuit board unit also has a mechanical coupling element for producing a rigid mechanical coupling between the switch and circuit board. The rigid coupling that the coupling element produces between the switch and circuit board allows the arrangement of the switch and circuit board to be embodied as a unit, which can enable maneuvering before installation and permit a simplified installation, and in particular, it is possible to simplify a fastening of the switch and circuit board inside a housing of the tool, and in the accompanying installation of electrical connections, for example in the form of flexible cables, it is possible to avoid an incorrect placement or wedging of cables.

  • Patent number: 8189312
    Abstract: A circuit arrangement (10) for detecting undervoltage in an energy source (12) includes a transistor switch (48) and at least one further switch element (30). The transistor switch (48) and the further switch element (30) are of low impedance in an operating state of the circuit arrangement (10). The transistor switch (48) blocks the further switch element (30) for interrupting the voltage supply if a supply voltage (U) of the energy source (12) is below a defined voltage value (Us).
