ELECTRIC TOOL WITH TRIGGER SWITCH AND LOCK-OUT ARRANGEMENT

摘要

The disclosure describes a portable electric tool having an on-off trigger switch and a motor reversing switch. The actuators for the two switches are so interlocked as to prevent the tool from being reversed while the tool is running. The tool housing has a separate integral cavity adjacent to the moving parts of the tool, such as the motor, for containing wires or solid state control devices and positively protects said wires or devices against physical or mechanical damage from the motor or related parts.
