An electrical connector assembly for a power tool, a power tool and methods for assembling a power tool. A one-piece trace or spider terminal member assembly provides points of connection for the motor components, such as the field windings, the brushes and the switch. To assemble the motor, the terminal member assembly is positioned in the motor housing. To mount the terminal member assembly, the terminal member assembly is preferably co-molded with the housing or, alternatively, may snap-fit into connectors formed on the housing. The terminal member assembly and the housing are then preferably punched or stamped at points to provide the necessary number of electrically separated contact elements to connect the components of the motor. For example, the female ends or terminals of the field windings, the brushes and the switch are connected to the electrically separated contact elements to provide a suitable complete electrical circuit for the motor. Non-conducting members are positioned between adjacent ones of the electrically separated contact elements. |
