Description

本発明は、例えば、穴あけ作業や切断作業等に用いられる手持ち式電動工具に関し、詳しくはハウジング内に内装されるモータが、モータケースを省略したビルトイン式ブラシモータである電動工具に関するものである。   The present invention relates to a hand-held electric tool used for, for example, a drilling operation or a cutting operation, and more particularly to an electric tool in which a motor built in a housing is a built-in brush motor in which a motor case is omitted.

従来から、電車工具の軽量化のためにモータケースを排除して、モータの構成要素をハウジングに直接組み付けるビルトイン式ブラシモータが知られている(例えば、特許文献1参照)。   Conventionally, a built-in brush motor in which a motor case is eliminated to reduce the weight of a train tool and a motor component is directly assembled to a housing is known (for example, see Patent Document 1).

従来のモータ2は、図6、図7に示すように、ロータ3a及び界磁磁石3bから成る界磁部3と、ブラシ5及び整流子8から成る整流部22とを別体にしたブラシモータで構成されており、整流部22をハウジング1の本体部1aの基端側Fに配置すると共に界磁部3を本体部1aの先端側Eに配置している。なお図6中の9は充電式電池、21はチャックである。ここで、整流部22にはブラシ5の位置決めを行う円形状のブラシホルダ7が備えられているが、このブラシホルダ7の端縁部分をハウジング1に形成された1対の突起25によって扶持させることで、ブラシホルダ7をハウジング1に保持している。またハウジング1は内装品を収納するために2つ割りになっており、内装品を組み込んだあとにこれらをねじ止めするが、ねじ止めのためハウジング1に形成されるボス状のねじ止め部のうち、従来では本体部1aの後部における上下のねじ止め部11,12を円形状のブラシホルダ7と干渉しないようにブラシホルダ7よりも後ろ側(基端側F)に張り出して配設しなければならず、そのためにハウジング1の本体部1aの全長が長くなってしまうという問題があった。   As shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, the conventional motor 2 is a brush motor in which a field unit 3 composed of a rotor 3 a and a field magnet 3 b and a rectification unit 22 composed of a brush 5 and a commutator 8 are separated. The rectifying unit 22 is disposed on the base end side F of the main body 1a of the housing 1 and the field unit 3 is disposed on the front end E of the main body 1a. In FIG. 6, 9 is a rechargeable battery and 21 is a chuck. Here, the rectifying unit 22 is provided with a circular brush holder 7 for positioning the brush 5, and the edge portion of the brush holder 7 is held by a pair of protrusions 25 formed on the housing 1. Thus, the brush holder 7 is held in the housing 1. Further, the housing 1 is divided into two parts for accommodating the interior parts, and these are screwed after the interior parts are assembled. The boss-like screwing part formed on the housing 1 is used for screwing. Among them, conventionally, the upper and lower screwing portions 11 and 12 at the rear portion of the main body portion 1 a should be arranged so as to protrude rearward (base end side F) from the brush holder 7 so as not to interfere with the circular brush holder 7. For this reason, there has been a problem that the entire length of the main body 1a of the housing 1 becomes long.

他の従来例を図8に示す。この従来例では上記図6、図7のモータ2と同様の構成をとりつつ、モータ2の後方にモータ制御用のFET14a(電界効果トランジスタ)とFET14aの熱を逃がすための放熱板13とを配置したものであり、この場合も、ハウジング1の本体部1aの全長が長くなってしまうという問題がある。   Another conventional example is shown in FIG. In this conventional example, a motor control FET 14a (field effect transistor) and a heat dissipation plate 13 for releasing the heat of the FET 14a are arranged behind the motor 2 while adopting the same configuration as the motor 2 of FIGS. In this case as well, there is a problem that the entire length of the main body 1a of the housing 1 becomes long.

さらに他の従来例を図9、図10に示す。なお図中の15はベアリング、17はFETリード線、18はモータリード線である。この電動工具30のブラシホルダ7においても図10のように円形状をしており、そのうえ図9のようにFET14aと放熱板13とがブラシホルダ7の後方(基端側F)に配置されているため、ハウジング1の本体部1aの全長が長くなってしまうという問題がある。なお、全長を短くするためにFET14aと放熱板13をグリップ部1bのスイッチケースに配設しているものもあるが、この場合、放熱板13を通る風の流れがなく、グリップ部1bが熱くなるという別の問題が生じる。
特開2003−025255号公報
Still another conventional example is shown in FIGS. In the figure, 15 is a bearing, 17 is an FET lead, and 18 is a motor lead. The brush holder 7 of the electric power tool 30 is also circular as shown in FIG. 10, and the FET 14 a and the heat radiating plate 13 are arranged behind the brush holder 7 (base end side F) as shown in FIG. 9. Therefore, there exists a problem that the full length of the main-body part 1a of the housing 1 will become long. In some cases, the FET 14a and the heat radiating plate 13 are disposed in the switch case of the grip portion 1b in order to shorten the overall length. In this case, there is no flow of wind through the heat radiating plate 13, and the grip portion 1b is hot. Another problem arises.
JP 2003-025255 A

本発明は上記の従来の問題点に鑑みて発明したものであって、ブラシホルダとモータ制御用の電子部品とをハウジングの長さ方向と直交する方向にコンパクトに配設可能とし、これによりハウジングの全長を短くでき、小型で且つ使用性に優れた電動工具を提供することを課題とするものである。   The present invention has been invented in view of the above-described conventional problems, and allows the brush holder and the electronic component for motor control to be disposed compactly in a direction perpendicular to the length direction of the housing, whereby the housing It is an object of the present invention to provide a power tool that can shorten the overall length, is small, and has excellent usability.

前記課題を解決するために本発明は、ハウジング1に内装されるモータ2が、モータケースを省略したビルトイン式ブラシモータである電動工具において、上記モータ2は、ロータ及び界磁磁石から成る界磁部3と、ブラシ5及び整流子8から成る整流部22とが別体に構成されてハウジング1の長さ方向E,Fに配列されており、上記整流部22にブラシ5を位置決めする板状のブラシホルダ7を設けると共に、ブラシホルダ7におけるブラシ5の位置決め部分から離れた端部をDカット状に切欠することで、ブラシホルダ7のDカットされた端部とハウジング1内面との間に、ハウジング1の長さ方向E,Fと直交する方向に新規空間部26を形成し、該新規空間部26にモータ制御用の電子部品14を配設したことを特徴としている。   In order to solve the above-described problems, the present invention provides a power tool in which the motor 2 housed in the housing 1 is a built-in brush motor in which the motor case is omitted. The motor 2 includes a field magnet including a rotor and a field magnet. The plate 3 for positioning the brush 5 on the rectifying unit 22 is configured separately from the rectifying unit 22 composed of the brush 3 and the commutator 8 and arranged in the length direction E, F of the housing 1. The brush holder 7 is provided, and the end of the brush holder 7 away from the positioning portion of the brush 5 is cut into a D-cut shape so that the D-cut end of the brush holder 7 and the inner surface of the housing 1 are interposed. A new space portion 26 is formed in a direction orthogonal to the length directions E and F of the housing 1, and the motor control electronic component 14 is disposed in the new space portion 26.

このような構成とすることで、ブラシホルダ7のDカット状に切欠された端部とハウジング1内面との間に、ハウジング1の長さ方向E,Fと直交する方向に新たな新規空間部26を生じさせることができ、この新規空間部26を利用してモータ制御用の電子部品14を収納できるので、ブラシホルダ7とモータ制御用の電子部品14とをハウジング1の長さ方向E,Fと直交する方向にコンパクトに配設できるようになる。しかもブラシ5の位置決め部分から離れた端部をDカットするので、ブラシホルダ7によるブラシ5の位置決め機能が従来通り発揮されると共に、モータ制御用の電子部品14を従来のようにグリップ部1b側に配設する必要もなくなる。   By adopting such a configuration, a new new space portion is formed in a direction orthogonal to the length directions E and F of the housing 1 between the end portion of the brush holder 7 cut into a D-cut shape and the inner surface of the housing 1. 26, and the motor control electronic component 14 can be accommodated using the new space 26, so that the brush holder 7 and the motor control electronic component 14 are connected in the longitudinal direction E, It becomes possible to arrange compactly in the direction orthogonal to F. In addition, since the end of the brush 5 away from the positioning portion is D-cut, the positioning function of the brush 5 by the brush holder 7 is exhibited as before, and the motor control electronic component 14 is mounted on the grip portion 1b side as in the prior art. There is no need to dispose it.

また、上記ハウジング1内部に、モータ2により回転する通風ファン4と、モータ制御用の電子部品14の熱を逃がすための放熱板13とを収納すると共に、ハウジング1における放熱板13の近傍位置に外気を導入する吸気口19を形成するのが好ましく、この場合、電子部品14又は放熱板13を通風ファン4による冷却風の通路に配置することができるので、電子部品14の冷却効果を高めることができ、電子部品14がモータ2の発熱の影響を受けにくくなる。   The housing 1 houses a ventilation fan 4 that is rotated by the motor 2 and a heat radiating plate 13 for releasing heat from the motor control electronic component 14, and is located near the heat radiating plate 13 in the housing 1. It is preferable to form an air inlet 19 for introducing outside air. In this case, the electronic component 14 or the heat radiating plate 13 can be disposed in the passage of the cooling air by the ventilation fan 4, so that the cooling effect of the electronic component 14 is enhanced. Thus, the electronic component 14 is less susceptible to the heat generated by the motor 2.

また、上記ハウジング1における通風ファン4の近傍位置に排気口20を設け、通風ファン4と放熱板13とを仕切るリブ23に吸気口19から排気口20まで通風するための通風孔23aを設けるのが好ましく、この場合、通風孔23aを通して放熱板13からの排気口20への放熱が良好となり、放熱板13の体積を小さくできて、軽量化を図ることができる。   Further, an exhaust port 20 is provided in the housing 1 in the vicinity of the ventilation fan 4, and a ventilation hole 23 a for ventilating the ventilation fan 4 and the heat radiating plate 13 from the intake port 19 to the exhaust port 20 is provided in the rib 23. In this case, heat radiation from the heat radiating plate 13 to the exhaust port 20 becomes good through the ventilation holes 23a, the volume of the heat radiating plate 13 can be reduced, and the weight can be reduced.

また、上記ブラシホルダ7の下端部7aをDカット状に形成すると共に、ブラシホルダ7の下方に生じる新規空間部26に、一対の半割れハウジング1c,1dの下部同士を互いに固定するための下側ねじ止め部12を配設するのが好ましく、また、上記ブラシホルダ7の上端部7b近傍位置に、一対の半割れハウジング1c,1dの上部同士を互いに固定するための上側ねじ止め部11を配設するのが好ましく、この場合、上下のねじ止め部11,12をブラシホルダ7の後ろに張り出して配置する必要がなくなり、ハウジング1の全長をより一層短くできる。   Further, the lower end portion 7a of the brush holder 7 is formed in a D-cut shape, and a lower portion for fixing the lower portions of the pair of half-cracked housings 1c and 1d to each other in a new space portion 26 formed below the brush holder 7. A side screwing portion 12 is preferably provided, and an upper screwing portion 11 for fixing the upper portions of the pair of half-cracked housings 1c and 1d to each other is provided near the upper end portion 7b of the brush holder 7. In this case, it is not necessary to place the upper and lower screwing portions 11 and 12 so as to protrude behind the brush holder 7, and the overall length of the housing 1 can be further shortened.

また、上記放熱板13に、モータ2の駆動軸を回転自在に軸支するベアリング15を接触させるのが好ましく、この場合、電子部品14の冷却のための放熱板13を利用して、ベアリング15の熱を除去でき、ベアリング15の長寿命化を図ることができる。   In addition, it is preferable to contact the heat sink 13 with a bearing 15 that rotatably supports the drive shaft of the motor 2. In this case, the heat sink 13 for cooling the electronic component 14 is used to make the bearing 15. Thus, the life of the bearing 15 can be extended.

本発明は、ブラシホルダの端部をDカット状に切欠して新規空間部を形成し、この新規空間部にモータ制御用の電子部品を配設することにより、ブラシホルダとモータ制御用の電子部品とをハウジングの長さ方向と直交する方向にコンパクトに配設でき、これによりハウジングの全長を短くできるものであり、また、ブラシホルダのDカット位置をブラシの位置決め部分から離れた端部に設定することで、ブラシホルダによるブラシの位置決め機能が従来通り発揮されるものであり、さらに、モータ制御用の電子部品を従来のようにグリップ部側に配設する必要もないため、グリップ部が熱くなることもなくなり、結果、小型で且つ使用性に優れた電動工具が得られるものである。   In the present invention, the end of the brush holder is cut out in a D-cut shape to form a new space portion, and the motor control electronic components are disposed in the new space portion. The parts can be arranged compactly in the direction perpendicular to the length direction of the housing, and the overall length of the housing can be shortened, and the D-cut position of the brush holder is placed at the end portion away from the positioning portion of the brush. By setting, the positioning function of the brush by the brush holder is exhibited as usual, and furthermore, it is not necessary to arrange the motor control electronic parts on the grip part side as in the conventional case. As a result, the electric tool which is small and excellent in usability can be obtained.

以下、本発明を添付図面に示す実施形態に基いて説明する。   Hereinafter, the present invention will be described based on embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings.

図1乃至図4は本発明の一実施形態の電動工具30を示す。この電動工具30のハウジング1は、図2、図3に示すように、水平円筒状の本体部1aと、この本体部1aの下縁から下方に垂下するグリップ部1bとを備え、ハウジング1の本体部1aにその先端側Eから基端側Fに向かって、チャック21、図示しない駆動部、モータ2を内装している。ハウジング1のグリップ部1bには電動駆動するモータ2の通電をオンオフをするスイッチ(図示せず)を内装し、グリップ部1bの下端には充電式電池9が着脱自在に設けられている。ここで、チャック21にはドリルやドライバー等の工具を装着させるチャック21が備えられ、駆動部はモータ2の回転駆動をチャック21に伝達させる減速機構で構成され、モータ2は電動式であり、スイッチを介して充電式電池9との電気的接続がなされている。また、上記ハウジング1に内装される内装品はハウジング1の内部空間を区切るようにハウジング1内面に形成されたリブ等で適所に位置決めされて内装されている。なお、上記モータ2の通電をオンオフをするスイッチはハウジング1の本体部1aとグリップ部1bとの連結部分に設けたトリガー16により操作されるようになっている。   1 to 4 show a power tool 30 according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the housing 1 of the electric tool 30 includes a horizontal cylindrical main body 1 a and a grip 1 b that hangs downward from the lower edge of the main body 1 a. A chuck 21, a drive unit (not shown), and a motor 2 are housed in the main body 1 a from the distal end E toward the proximal end F. The grip portion 1b of the housing 1 is provided with a switch (not shown) for turning on and off energization of the motor 2 that is electrically driven, and a rechargeable battery 9 is detachably provided at the lower end of the grip portion 1b. Here, the chuck 21 is provided with a chuck 21 on which a tool such as a drill or a screwdriver is mounted, and the drive unit is constituted by a speed reduction mechanism that transmits the rotational drive of the motor 2 to the chuck 21, and the motor 2 is an electric type. Electrical connection with the rechargeable battery 9 is made through a switch. In addition, the interior product housed in the housing 1 is positioned at a suitable position by a rib or the like formed on the inner surface of the housing 1 so as to divide the internal space of the housing 1. The switch for turning on / off the energization of the motor 2 is operated by a trigger 16 provided at a connecting portion between the main body 1a and the grip 1b of the housing 1.

ここで、上記モータ2は、モータケースを省略してモータ2の構成要素をハウジング1に内装したビルトイン式ブラシモータであり、ロータ3a及び界磁磁石3b(図7)から成る界磁部3と、ブラシ5及び整流子8から成る整流部22とが別体に構成されると共に、界磁部3と整流部22とがハウジング1の長さ方向E,Fに配列されている。本例では整流部22をハウジング1の本体部1aの基端側Fに配置し、界磁部3を本体部1aの先端側Eに配置している。   Here, the motor 2 is a built-in brush motor in which the motor case is omitted and the components of the motor 2 are housed in the housing 1, and the field unit 3 including the rotor 3a and the field magnet 3b (FIG. 7) and The rectifying unit 22 including the brush 5 and the commutator 8 is configured separately, and the field magnet unit 3 and the rectifying unit 22 are arranged in the length directions E and F of the housing 1. In this example, the rectifying unit 22 is disposed on the base end side F of the main body 1a of the housing 1, and the field unit 3 is disposed on the front end E of the main body 1a.

上記ブラシ5は、絶縁板からなるブラシホルダ7に設けたブラシケース6に挿入されている。図1に示す例では、一対のブラシケース6をブラシホルダ7の上半部において上向きV字形に配設しており、ブラシホルダ7の下端部7aをDカット状に形成して、ブラシホルダ7の外郭形状を従来の円形状からD形状に変更させている。このブラシホルダ7の上端部7b側の端縁部分はハウジング1に形成された1対の突起25(図4)によって扶持されている。またブラシホルダ7の端部をDカットすることにより、ブラシホルダ7のDカットされた端部とハウジング1内面との間に、ハウジング1の長さ方向E,Fと直交する方向に新規空間部26が新たに生じ、この新規空間部26にモータ制御用の電子部品14が配設されている。ここでは、ブラシホルダ7の下端部7aとハウジング1の本体部1aの内周面との間に生じた新たな新規空間部26内に納まるように、FET14a(電界効果トランジスタ)及びこのFET14aで発生した熱を取り除くための放熱板13とがそれぞれ配設されている。なお、FET14aはモータ2の電流を制御する半導体スイッチング素子の一種で、FETリード線17を介して他のスイッチ部品と電気的につながっており、充電式電池9からモータ2に流れる電流を調節し、トリガー16の引き込み量に応じてモータ2の回転遠度を調節するものである。勿論、モータ制御用の電子部品14としてFET14aに限定されるものではなく、モータ2の回転数制御を行なうスイッチング素子を広く含むものである。   The brush 5 is inserted into a brush case 6 provided in a brush holder 7 made of an insulating plate. In the example shown in FIG. 1, a pair of brush cases 6 are arranged in an upward V shape in the upper half of the brush holder 7, and the lower end portion 7 a of the brush holder 7 is formed in a D-cut shape. The outer shape is changed from a conventional circular shape to a D shape. The edge portion of the brush holder 7 on the upper end 7 b side is held by a pair of protrusions 25 (FIG. 4) formed on the housing 1. Further, by cutting the end portion of the brush holder 7 by D-cutting, a new space portion is formed in a direction orthogonal to the length directions E and F of the housing 1 between the D-cut end portion of the brush holder 7 and the inner surface of the housing 1. 26 is newly generated, and the electronic component 14 for motor control is disposed in the new space portion 26. Here, the FET 14a (field effect transistor) and the FET 14a are generated so as to be accommodated in a new new space 26 formed between the lower end 7a of the brush holder 7 and the inner peripheral surface of the main body 1a of the housing 1. A heat radiating plate 13 for removing the generated heat is provided. The FET 14a is a kind of semiconductor switching element that controls the current of the motor 2 and is electrically connected to other switch components via the FET lead wire 17 to adjust the current flowing from the rechargeable battery 9 to the motor 2. The rotational distance of the motor 2 is adjusted according to the pull-in amount of the trigger 16. Of course, the electronic component 14 for controlling the motor is not limited to the FET 14a, but includes a wide range of switching elements for controlling the rotational speed of the motor 2.

また上記モータ2の回転部(例えば駆動軸或いはロータ)に通風ファン4が取り付けられており、一方、ハウジング1における通風ファン4の外周位置に排気用の風穴である排気口20が形成されており、他の部分に吸気用の風穴である吸気口19(19a〜19c)が形成されている。そして、図4に示すように、吸気口19から外部の空気Mを吸い込み、経路にある部品(FET14a、放熱板13等)の熱を取り除いて排気口20から加熱された空気Nを排出するようにしている。本例では、ハウジング1には通風ファン4の後方を仕切るリブ23が突設されており、吸気口19a,19bより吸い込んだ空気Mがリブ23に設けた円形の通風孔23aを通って排気口20へと向かうようにしている。ここで、放熱板13はフィン形状をしており、ハウジング1の吸気口19aは放熱板13の外周部分に面して開口しており、吸気口19aから吸い込んだ空気Mが放熱板13のフィン間の凹部13aを通って、FET14aの発熱を効率よく除去できるようになっている。   A ventilation fan 4 is attached to the rotating portion (for example, drive shaft or rotor) of the motor 2, while an exhaust port 20, which is an exhaust air hole, is formed at the outer peripheral position of the ventilation fan 4 in the housing 1. In other portions, intake ports 19 (19a to 19c), which are air holes for intake, are formed. Then, as shown in FIG. 4, external air M is sucked from the intake port 19, heat of components (FET 14 a, heat sink 13, etc.) in the path is removed, and heated air N is discharged from the exhaust port 20. I have to. In this example, a rib 23 that partitions the rear of the ventilation fan 4 protrudes from the housing 1, and the air M sucked from the intake ports 19 a and 19 b passes through the circular ventilation holes 23 a provided in the ribs 23 to the exhaust port. I am heading to 20. Here, the heat radiating plate 13 has a fin shape, the air inlet 19a of the housing 1 is opened facing the outer peripheral portion of the heat radiating plate 13, and the air M sucked from the air inlet 19a is the fin of the heat radiating plate 13. The heat generation of the FET 14a can be efficiently removed through the recess 13a.

上記ハウジング1は、内装品を収納するために一対の半割れハウジング1c,1d(図4)からなり、部品を組み込んだあとにこれらをねじ止めするため、半割れハウジング1c,1dには複数のボス形状をしたねじ止め部11,12が突設されている。これらのねじ止め部11,12のうち、従来はブラシホルダ7よりも後方にあった下側のねじ止め部12(図6)を、本発明では図3に示すブラシホルダ7及び放熱板13の下方に配設しており、また従来はブラシホルダ7の後方にあった上側のねじ止め部11(図6)を、本発明ではブラシホルダ7の上端部7bの近傍位置(例えば上端部7bの前方側)に配設している。   The housing 1 is composed of a pair of half-cracked housings 1c and 1d (FIG. 4) for housing the interior parts, and a plurality of half-cracked housings 1c and 1d have a plurality of half-cracked housings 1c and 1d. Boss-shaped screwing portions 11 and 12 are projected. Of these screwing portions 11 and 12, the lower screwing portion 12 (FIG. 6) that is conventionally rearward of the brush holder 7 is replaced with the brush holder 7 and the heat radiating plate 13 shown in FIG. 3 in the present invention. In the present invention, the upper screwing portion 11 (FIG. 6), which is disposed below and located behind the brush holder 7 in the past, is positioned near the upper end portion 7b of the brush holder 7 (for example, the upper end portion 7b). It is arranged on the front side.

しかして、ブラシホルダ7のDカット状に切欠された下端部7aとハウジング1内面との間に、ハウジング1の長さ方向E,Fと直交する方向に新たな新規空間部26を生じさせたものであり、この新規空間部26はモータ2の外径範囲内にあり、この新規空間部26内にモータ制御用のFET14a及びその熱を逃がすための放熱板13を収納することで、ブラシホルダ7とFET14aと放熱板13とをハウジング1の長さ方向E,Fと直交する方向にコンパクトに配設できるので、ハウジング1の本体部1aの全長を短くできる。しかも、ブラシ5の位置決め部分から離れた端部をDカットするので、ブラシホルダ7によるブラシ5の位置決め機能が従来通り発揮されると共に、FET14aを従来のようにグリップ部1b側に配設する必要もなくなるため、グリップ部1bが熱くなることもなく、使い勝手が向上する利点がある。   Thus, a new new space 26 is formed in the direction perpendicular to the length directions E and F of the housing 1 between the lower end 7a of the brush holder 7 cut into a D-cut shape and the inner surface of the housing 1. The new space portion 26 is within the outer diameter range of the motor 2, and the brush holder is obtained by housing the FET 14a for motor control and the heat radiating plate 13 for releasing the heat in the new space portion 26. 7, the FET 14 a, and the heat radiating plate 13 can be compactly arranged in the direction orthogonal to the length directions E and F of the housing 1, so that the overall length of the main body 1 a of the housing 1 can be shortened. In addition, since the end of the brush 5 away from the positioning portion is D-cut, the positioning function of the brush 5 by the brush holder 7 is exhibited as before, and the FET 14a needs to be disposed on the grip portion 1b side as in the prior art. Therefore, there is an advantage that the grip portion 1b is not heated and the usability is improved.

また本例では、ハウジング1における通風ファン4の近傍位置に排気口20を設け、通風ファン4と放熱板13とを仕切るリブ23に吸気口19から排気口20まで通風するための通風孔23aを設けているので、放熱板13から排気口20の放熱が一層良くなるのに伴い放熱板13の体積を小さく抑えることができ、コンパクト化に寄与できる。そのうえブラシホルダ7の下方に生じる新規空間部26に、一対の半割れハウジング1c,1dの下部同士を互いに固定するための下側ねじ止め部12を配設し、且つブラシホルダ7の上端部7b近傍位置に、半割れハウジング1c,1dの上部同士を互いに固定するための上側ねじ止め部11を配設したことで、従来のように上下のねじ止めボスをブラシホルダ7の後ろにそれぞれ張り出して配置する場合と比較して、ハウジング1の本体部1aの全長を、より一層短くできる利点がある。   Further, in this example, an exhaust port 20 is provided in the housing 1 in the vicinity of the ventilation fan 4, and a ventilation hole 23 a for ventilating the ventilation fan 4 and the heat radiating plate 13 from the intake port 19 to the exhaust port 20 is provided in the rib 23. Since it is provided, as the heat radiation from the heat radiating plate 13 to the exhaust port 20 is further improved, the volume of the heat radiating plate 13 can be kept small, which contributes to downsizing. In addition, a lower screwing portion 12 for fixing the lower portions of the pair of half-cracked housings 1c and 1d to each other is disposed in a new space portion 26 formed below the brush holder 7, and the upper end portion 7b of the brush holder 7 is disposed. Since the upper screwing portions 11 for fixing the upper portions of the half-cracked housings 1c and 1d to each other are disposed in the vicinity, the upper and lower screwing bosses are projected behind the brush holder 7 as in the prior art. Compared with the case where it arrange | positions, there exists an advantage which can further shorten the full length of the main-body part 1a of the housing 1 further.

さらに本例では、モータ2の回転部に通風ファン4を取り付け、FET14aに熱を逃がすためのフィン状の放熱板13を取り付け、ハウジング1における放熱板13の近傍位置に吸気口19を設けたことにより、FET14a又は放熱板13を通風ファン4による冷却風の通路内に配置でき、FET14aの冷却効果を高めることができるので、FET14aがモータ2の発熱の影響を受けにくくなり、FET14aの寿命を延ばすことができる利点もある。   Further, in this example, the ventilation fan 4 is attached to the rotating part of the motor 2, the fin-like heat radiation plate 13 for releasing heat is attached to the FET 14a, and the air inlet 19 is provided in the housing 1 in the vicinity of the heat radiation plate 13. Thus, the FET 14a or the heat radiating plate 13 can be arranged in the passage of the cooling air by the ventilation fan 4, and the cooling effect of the FET 14a can be enhanced. There are also advantages that can be made.

本発明の他の実施形態として、図5に示すように、ハウジング1の内面に、モータ2の駆動軸を回転自在に軸支するベアリング15を設けると共に、FET14aの放熱板13の端面部分13aをベアリング15の外輪と接触させるのが望ましい。他の構成は図3と同様である。本例ではベアリング15の発熱をFET14aの熱を逃がすための放熱板13を利用して除去できるので、ベアリング15の寿命を大幅に延ばすことができる利点がある。   As another embodiment of the present invention, as shown in FIG. 5, a bearing 15 that rotatably supports the drive shaft of the motor 2 is provided on the inner surface of the housing 1, and an end surface portion 13a of the heat sink 13 of the FET 14a is provided. It is desirable to contact the outer ring of the bearing 15. Other configurations are the same as those in FIG. In this example, since the heat generated in the bearing 15 can be removed by using the heat radiating plate 13 for releasing the heat of the FET 14a, there is an advantage that the life of the bearing 15 can be greatly extended.

なお前記実施形態では、ブラシホルダ7のDカット状に形成する位置をブラシホルダ7の下端部7aに設定したが、これに限らず、例えばブラシホルダ7の側端或いは上端部7bをDカット状に形成してもよいものである。   In addition, in the said embodiment, although the position formed in D cut shape of the brush holder 7 was set to the lower end part 7a of the brush holder 7, not only this but the side edge or upper end part 7b of the brush holder 7 is D cut shape, for example May be formed.
