Patent ID: 10536056

Abstract:
An electric power tool 1 has a motor 3, a housing 2, a power cord 9, and a power supply control circuit portion 8. The housing 2 has a body portion 21 for accommodating the motor, a substrate accommodating portion 23 for accommodating a substrate on which a control substrate for operating the motor 3 is mounted, a handle portion 22 having one end connected to the body portion 21 and another end connected to the substrate accommodating portion 23. The power cord 9 extends from the substrate accommodating portion 23 and is connected to an AC power supply. The power supply circuit portion 8 has a choke coil 86 and a film capacitor 88 for filtering noise, and converts AC power supplied through the power cord 9 to DC power. The choke coil 86 and a film capacitor 88 are accommodated in the substrate accommodating portion 23. Accordingly, the handle portion can be formed shorter, and assemblability of the electric power tool can be improved.
