Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of controllers, and in particular to the wiring structure of controllers that facilitates automated production. Background Technology

[0002] A power tool controller is a device that controls the mechanical quantities, working sequence, and operating mode of a power tool by controlling its electrical parameters. It is primarily connected to the brushless motor within the power tool. With the continuous advancement of lithium battery technology and the evolving needs of consumers, the power tool industry is showing a trend towards cordless operation, lithium battery integration, integration, and intelligence. As a core component of power tools, the controller plays a crucial role in driving this trend.

[0003] like Figure 1 The structure of the controller for power tools on the market includes a PCB assembly 1, a switch 3 and an EMC assembly 2. The EMC assembly 2 is connected to the PCB assembly 1 via two input lines 5. The motor is connected to the PCB assembly 1 via three output lines 4. The switch 3 is connected to the PCB assembly 1 via a ribbon cable.

[0004] In the existing controller, the three output lines 4 and the two input lines 5 are directly soldered to the circuit board of PCB assembly 1. During the production process, they can only be soldered manually and cannot be assembled by automated equipment, resulting in low production efficiency and the quality of manual soldering cannot be guaranteed.

The end of the output terminal away from the terminal pin is used to connect to the motor lead.

[0008] Furthermore, a connecting piece is provided inside the conductive wiring cavity. The end of the input terminal away from the terminal pin is assembled with the connecting piece. The connecting piece extends to the surface of the upper cover and connects with the EMC component. Connecting the input terminal and the EMC component through the connecting piece can further improve production efficiency.

[0009] Furthermore, the edge of the conductive wiring cavity is provided with a lead wire sleeve and a ribbon cable sleeve.

The lead wire sleeve and the ribbon cable sleeve can fix the position of the ribbon cable of the push-button switch and the output wire of the motor, and prevent the ribbon cable and the output wire from shaking and causing the connection to loosen.

[0010] Furthermore, the output terminal is provided with a wiring port, into which the motor's output wire can be inserted. The side wall of the wiring port is provided with a wire clamping screw hole, which can be screwed into the wire clamping screw hole to clamp the motor's output wire, facilitating quick connection or disconnection of the output wire from the output terminal.

[0011] Furthermore, the lower cover and the upper cover are detachably connected by bolts, and the upper cover can be removed when wiring, making wiring more convenient.

[0012] Furthermore, the input terminal is provided with a threaded connection hole at one end near the top cover, and the bolt can be passed through the top cover and tightened into the threaded connection hole of the input terminal. The input terminal is hexagonal prism-shaped to prevent the input terminal from slipping and rotating in the terminal positioning groove when the bolt is tightened.

[0013] Furthermore, the lower cover is integrally formed with the output and input terminals through an insert injection molding process, which simplifies the assembly steps in the production process and improves production efficiency.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: an output terminal and an input terminal are provided in the lower cover. The output terminal and the input terminal are electrically connected to the PCB assembly. The output line of the motor is electrically connected to the PCB assembly through the output terminal. The EMC assembly and the PCB assembly are electrically connected through the input terminal. This makes the connection between the motor and the EMC assembly and the PCB assembly more convenient. During production, the PCB assembly does not need to be soldered to the wires, so it can be assembled by automated equipment, which effectively improves production efficiency.
