Patent ID: 10328563

Abstract:
A motor control unit (6) is adapted for controlling an electronically driven hand held and/or hand guided tool (1) featuring a housing (2) and a working element (3) located outside the housing (2), the housing (2) containing an electric motor (29) and a gear mechanism for translating a rotational movement of the motor (29) into an actuation movement of the working element (3). An electrically driven tool (1) is also provided that includes such a control unit (6). In order to reduce tool costs, the control unit (6) is embodied separately from the tool's housing (2). The control unit (6) includes a technique (9; 16) for mechanically attaching the control unit (6) to the housing (2) and a further technique (18; 23, 24) for electrically connecting the control unit (6) to electronic components (19; 29, 31, 32) of the tool (1) for operation of the tool (1).
