Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of tools, and particularly to a power tool. Background Art

[0002] In the prior art, a lithium-ion drill includes a speed switching push button, which is disposed on the upper part of the main body housing. The speed switching push button is operated by an operator to move forward or backward. By operating the speed switching push button, the rotational speed of the main shaft can be switched from one of a first speed and a second speed to the other, where the first speed is different from the second speed. On the one hand, the speed switching push button is higher than the surface of the housing, and when the whole machine drops, it is easy to cause the speed switching push button to be damaged first, affecting the function. On the other hand, the speed switching push button is relatively rearward, which is likely to affect the air outlet located at the rear.
