Portable electric power tools.

摘要

A portable electric power tool incorporates in conjunction with its double-pole main switch mechanism (11) a separate carrier member (10) which carries two pairs of terminals (20; 41) for the attachment of the mains electric leads and the motor stator leads. Four pairs of complementary connectors (23, 24, 32, 33; 48) are also provided, the two connectors of each pair being mounted one on the carrier member and the other on the switch mechanism, and the four connectors on the carrier members are respectively connected to the said terminals (20; 41). The carrier member is appropriately located in the tool and has two posts (44) which become engaged in apertures (45) in the body of the switch mechanism as the mechanism is placed in position. The connectors of each pair are so disposed that the act of positioning the switch mechanism in this way brings the ' connectors of each of the four pairs into engagement.
