摘要:
The cylindrical plug of a low-voltage, high current capacity connector assembly has an axially positioned sleeve wiping contact and a transversely positioned U-shaped channel member to provide two pairs of planar wiping contact surfaces parallel to the plug axis and substantially perpendicular to the plug housing surface. The socket component, which will accept standard low-voltage, low current car appliance plugs, includes an internally mounted, closed face pin contact and a barrel contact having depending ears positioned to engage the protruding sides of the plug U-shaped channel member. The socket also has an internal boss and housing lip to prevent electrical activation of a standard automotive cigarette lighter plug, and the plug component of the connector assembly has the sleeve contact recessed to prevent contact following insertion into a conventional cigarette lighter socket. The mobile power tool and appliance operating system includes a portable lead-acid battery pack having a high current capacity socket compatible with existing low current plugs used with appliances intended to operate from automotive cigarette lighter sockets. Matable high current capacity plugs are attached to power tools and appliances through retractable cords. The battery pack is receivable in a 120 VAC powered charging base having a self-contained charging circuit including a transformer and a voltage regulator.

A circuit provides a half-wave rectified current for charging batteries from an AC source. The circuit comprises a rectifier, such as a diode, in series with the batteries and biased to conduct a first half cycle charging current from the AC source and a signal emitting and rectifying device, such as a light emitting diode (LED), biased oppositely from said rectifier, to conduct the opposite half cycle of current and adapted to emit a signal when conducting to indicate the charging process.

Magnet wires wound in slots in a lamination stack of a dynamoelectric machine are encapsulated, in whole or in part, with thermally conductive plastic. Pre-formed features having a thermal conductivity higher than the thermally conductive plastic are insert molded when the plastic is molded. The pre-formed features may include a finned end cap and a fan. Alternatively, end domes of the plastic over end coils of the wound magnet wires have a metallic layer on them, such as by being metallized. The end domes can be formed with features which are also metallized. The thermally conductive plastic can have a phase change additive in it. The magnet wires can have a layer of heat activated adhesive that is activated when the plastic is molded. Slots in the lamination stack can include slot liners formed of thermally conductive plastic. A fan can be formed when the thermally conductive plastic is molded to encapsulate the magnet wires.

A viewing window for covering an aperture in a hand-held circular saw includes an optically transmissive member adapted to be coupled with the guard. The member is movable between a closed position, wherein the member substantially covers the aperture, and the open position, wherein the member at least partially uncovers the aperture, to allow the cleaning of the member. A structure is provided for biasing the member to the closed position.
摘要:
A method for forming an armature for an electric motor includes securing a lamination stack having slots therein on an armature shaft. A commutator is secured on one end of the armature shaft. Magnet wires are wound in the slots in the lamination stack and ends of the magnet wires are secured to the commutator. Plastic is molded around the lamination stack, commutator and magnet wires. Excess plastic is machined off. The magnet wires can have a layer of heat activated adhesive that is activated when the plastic is molded. Slots in the lamination stack can include slot liners formed of thermally conductive plastic. A fan can be formed when the thermally conductive plastic is molded to encapsulate the magnet wires.
摘要:
Magnet wires wound in slots in a lamination stack of a dynamoelectric machine are encapsulated, in whole or in part, with plastic. The plastic may be thermally conductive and have features molded therein that enhance heat transfer. The plastic may stiffen the armature and increase its critical speed. Characteristics of the plastic, its geometry and its distribution may be varied to adjust spinning inertia and resonant frequency of the armature. The magnet wires may be compressed into the slots, by application of iso-static pressure or by the pressure of the plastic being molded around them. Larger magnet wire can then be used which increases the power of the electric motor using the armature having the larger magnet wire. A two or three plate mold may be used to mold the plastic around the armature. Balancing features can be molded in place. The plastic can have a base polymer that is a blend of two or more polymers and various thermally conductive fillings.

A mobile power tool and appliance operating system includes a portable lead-acid battery pack having a high current capacity socket compatible with existing low current plugs used with appliances intended to operate from automotive cigarette lighter sockets. Matable high current capacity plugs are attached to power tools and appliances through retractable cords. The battery pack is receivable in a 120 VAC powered charging base having a self-contained charging circuit including a transformer and a voltage regulator. The high current socket housing prevents inadvertent operation with an automotive cigarette lighter plug, and the high current plug housing prevents electrical contact in a automotive cigarette lighter socket, for safety reasons. In another embodiment, the battery pack is provided with two sockets for delivering different power outputs at each respective socket. Recharging of the battery pack can also be accomplished via connection made to one of the sockets.
