  • Patent number: 10722960
    Abstract: A dust collection nozzle extends from the front of a fixing cover parallel to a base below an upper end of an electric motor. Heavy and large cutting dust can be immediately collected from an area relatively close to a cutting position of a portable cutting device cutting a workpiece immediately after dust is generated due to the cutting, which can in turn improve dust collection efficiency of a dust collection device to which the dust collection nozzle is attached.

  • Publication number: 20120198708
    Abstract: A cutting tool includes a base and a tool unit coupled to the base and movable together with the base in a cut proceeding direction for cutting a workpiece. The tool unit includes an electric motor having an output shaft, a reduction gear section, and a spindle having a cutting blade mounted thereto. The reduction gear section is coupled between the output shaft and the spindle, so that the rotation of the output shaft is transmitted to the spindle via the reduction gear section. The reduction gear section has an intermediate shaft, a first reduction gear mechanism provided between the output shaft and the intermediate shaft, and a second reduction gear mechanism provided between the intermediate shaft and the spindle. The intermediate shaft is positioned forwardly of the output shaft and the spindle in the cut proceeding direction at least when the tool unit is positioned for cutting the workpiece.

  • Patent number: 7101197
    Abstract: In printed boards arranged in a vertical relationship, outer peripheral portions of an upper printed board are projected outward from outer peripheral portions of a lower printed board. Conductive bodies with terminal holes are arranged side by side on the upper and the lower printed boards along peripheral edges of the boards. Press-fit terminals are arranged in row arrangement along the outer peripheral portions of the printed boards. Each of the press-fit terminals is pressed from below into terminal holes of the two upper and lower printed boards with a long first vertical portion outside and a short second vertical portion inside.
