Description

本発明は、例えばマルノコ等の電動工具と、その電動工具にホースを介して接続される集塵機とを備え、電動工具の作動及び作動停止に伴って集塵機を自動的に作動及び作動停止させるための集塵機の連動システムに関する。   The present invention includes, for example, a power tool such as Marunoko, and a dust collector connected to the power tool via a hose, and automatically activates and deactivates the dust collector when the power tool is activated and deactivated. The present invention relates to a dust collector interlocking system.

マルノコやグラインダ、カンナ等の電動工具を使用する場合、粉塵や切削屑が排出されるため、電動工具にホースを介して集塵機を接続し、集塵機を作動させながら切削作業等を行うことで、粉塵等を飛散させずに集塵機に直接集塵させることがよく行われている。この場合、両者を使用する際の作業性を向上させるために、集塵機に電動工具との連動機能を付加したものが知られている。これは、集塵機に、電動工具の電源コードを差し込むコンセントと連動／非連動の切替スイッチとを設けて、連動を選択した際には、集塵機内の制御部が、コンセント側への電流を検出する電流検出部からの信号に基づいて集塵機のモータ駆動回路に設けたスイッチを開閉させて集塵機を電動工具に連動させる一方、非連動を選択した際には、制御部がスイッチを常閉として、手動によるメインスイッチのＯＮ／ＯＦＦによって集塵機を単独で動作させるものである。   When using a power tool such as a marnoco, grinder, or canna, dust and cutting waste are discharged, so a dust collector can be connected to the power tool via a hose and the dust collector can be operated to perform dusting. It is often performed to directly collect dust in a dust collector without scattering the dust. In this case, in order to improve the workability when using both, a dust collector having a function of interlocking with an electric tool is known. This is because the dust collector is provided with an outlet into which the power cord of the power tool is plugged in and an interlock / non-interchange switch, and when the interlock is selected, the control unit in the dust collector detects the current to the outlet. Based on the signal from the current detector, the switch provided in the dust collector motor drive circuit is opened and closed to interlock the dust collector with the power tool. The dust collector is operated independently by turning on / off the main switch.

しかし、この連動機能では、電源コードで交流電源を得るＡＣ工具しか使用できない上、両者間を繋ぐ電源コードが作業の邪魔になるおそれもある。よって、本件出願人は、特許文献１に開示のように、電動工具に、電動工具の作動を検出する作動検出手段と、その作動検出手段による検出結果に基づいて、運転信号又は停止信号を送信する無線送信手段とを備えた送信機を装着する一方、集塵機に、送信機からの信号を受信する無線受信手段と、その無線受信手段で受信した信号に基づいてモータ駆動回路の通電を制御する通電制御手段とを備えた受信機を設けて、ＡＣ工具は勿論、ＤＣ工具でもその作動及び作動停止に集塵機が無線で連動可能とした集塵機の連動システムを提供している。   However, in this interlocking function, only an AC tool that obtains AC power with a power cord can be used, and the power cord that connects the two may interfere with the work. Therefore, as disclosed in Patent Document 1, the present applicant transmits an operation signal or a stop signal to the electric power tool based on an operation detection unit that detects the operation of the electric tool and a detection result by the operation detection unit. A wireless transmitter having a wireless transmitter is attached to the dust collector, and the energization of the motor drive circuit is controlled based on the wireless receiver that receives the signal from the transmitter and the signal received by the wireless receiver. A receiver including an energization control unit is provided, and a dust collector interlocking system is provided in which a dust collector can be interlocked wirelessly for operation and deactivation of DC tools as well as AC tools.

特開２００４−１９５５６５号公報JP 2004-195565 A

ところが、上記集塵機の連動システムにおいては、集塵機に受信機を搭載させる必要があり、全体のコストアップに繋がる上、連動機能を備えたものであっても受信機がない集塵機では使用できない。ここでは、受信機をアダプタとして電源コードとコンセントとの間に介在させる例が提示されているが、このようにアダプタを介在させた状態では常に電動工具と連動となって単独での集塵機の使用が行えず、単独使用時にはコンセントの位置まで行ってアダプタを取り外す必要があって結局作業性が悪くなってしまう。   However, in the above-mentioned dust collector interlocking system, it is necessary to mount a receiver on the dust collector. This leads to an increase in the overall cost, and even a dust collector having a receiver cannot be used even if it has a interlocking function. Here, an example in which the receiver is interposed between the power cord and the outlet as an adapter is presented. However, when the adapter is interposed in this way, the dust collector is always used in conjunction with the power tool. In the case of single use, it is necessary to go to the outlet and remove the adapter, resulting in poor workability.

そこで、本発明は、受信機を有しない既存の集塵機でも簡単に電動工具に無線で連動可能となり、集塵機の単独運転も容易に可能となって使い勝手に優れる集塵機の連動システムを提供することを目的としたものである。   Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a dust collector interlocking system that can be easily linked wirelessly to an electric tool even with an existing dust collector that does not have a receiver, and that can easily operate a dust collector easily, and is excellent in usability. It is what.

上記目的を達成するために、請求項１に記載の発明は、電動工具にホースを介して接続され、外部機器への電源供給用のコンセントを有してコンセントからの電源供給を検出して外部機器と連動運転する連動機能を備えた集塵機を、無線によって電動工具の作動及び作動停止に連動させるための集塵機の連動システムであって、電動工具に、電動工具の作動を検出する作動検出手段と、その作動検出手段による検出結果に基づいて運転信号を送信する無線送信手段とを備えた送信機を設ける一方、集塵機のコンセントに、そのコンセントから電源を得て通電する受信通電回路と、送信機の無線送信手段からの運転信号を受信する無線受信手段と、その無線受信手段での運転信号の受信に応じて受信通電回路の通電を制御する通電制御手段とを備えたアダプタを差し込み接続して、電動工具の作動の際には、電動工具の運転信号を受信したアダプタにおいて受信通電回路が通電することで、集塵機に連動機能を発揮させるようにしたことを特徴とするものである。   In order to achieve the above object, the invention according to claim 1 is connected to the power tool through a hose, has an outlet for supplying power to an external device, detects the power supply from the outlet, and externally A dust collector interlocking system for linking a dust collector having an interlocking function for interlocking operation with a device to the operation and stoppage of the power tool wirelessly, and an operation detecting means for detecting the operation of the power tool in the power tool; A transmitter having a wireless transmission means for transmitting an operation signal based on a detection result by the operation detection means, a reception energization circuit for obtaining power from the outlet and energizing the outlet of the dust collector, and a transmitter Wireless receiving means for receiving an operation signal from the wireless transmission means, and energization control means for controlling energization of the reception energization circuit in response to reception of the operation signal by the wireless receiving means. The adapter is inserted and connected, and when operating the power tool, the receiving energization circuit is energized in the adapter that has received the operation signal of the power tool, thereby allowing the dust collector to exhibit the interlocking function. To do.

請求項１に記載の発明によれば、アダプタの採用により、連動機能を備えた集塵機であれば、受信機を有しない既存の集塵機でも簡単に電動工具と無線で連動させることができる。また、集塵機側での非連動への切替により単独運転が可能となるため、使い勝手に優れる。
According to the first aspect of the present invention, by adopting an adapter, an existing dust collector that does not have a receiver can be easily linked wirelessly with an electric tool as long as the dust collector has an interlocking function. In addition, since switching to non-interlocking on the dust collector side enables independent operation, it is excellent in usability.

以下、本発明の実施の形態を図面に基づいて説明する。
図１は、電動工具としてマルノコを使用した集塵機の連動システムの一例を示す説明図で、まず集塵機１は、タンク２の上部に、ＡＣモータ及び吸い込みファンを内蔵した本体３を載置してなる。タンク２には電源コード４が接続されており、ここから交流電源を得てＡＣモータを駆動させると、タンク２の吸込口５に接続したホース６から粉塵等と共に外気を吸い込み、タンク２内を通過させて本体３から排気する。タンク２内と本体３との間にはフィルタが介在されていることから、吸い込まれた粉塵等は、フィルタで捕捉されてタンク２内に集塵される。 Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
FIG. 1 is an explanatory view showing an example of a dust collector interlocking system using a marnoco as an electric tool. First, a dust collector 1 is formed by placing a main body 3 with an AC motor and a suction fan on top of a tank 2. . A power cord 4 is connected to the tank 2, and when AC power is obtained from this AC motor, the outside air is sucked together with dust etc. from the hose 6 connected to the suction port 5 of the tank 2, Pass through and exhaust from the body 3. Since a filter is interposed between the tank 2 and the main body 3, the sucked dust and the like are captured by the filter and collected in the tank 2.

７はマルノコで、集塵機１と同じく交流電源を得る電源コード９が接続される本体８には、ＡＣモータの駆動によって回転する円盤状の鋸刃１０が備えられる。鋸刃１０を覆うブレードケース１１には、集塵機１からのホース６が接続されている。
また、マルノコ７内には送信機１２が内蔵されている。この送信機１２は、図２に示すように、交流電源とマルノコ７のＡＣモータ１３との間でモータ駆動回路１５に組み込まれるもので、ＡＣモータ１３と並列に接続されて動作電源を作成する電源部１６と、電源部１６から電源を得て動作し、変流器１８を介してモータ駆動回路１５の通電を検出する作動検出手段としての電流検出部１７と、同じく電源部１６から電源を得て電流検出部１７による電流の検出に応じて動作する送信部１９とを備える。２０は送信部１９に設けたアンテナで、送信部１９と合わせて無線送信手段を構成する。すなわち、送信部１９は、電流検出部１７がマルノコ７のメインスイッチ１４のＯＮによってモータ駆動回路１５内の通電を検出した際には、運転信号をアンテナ２０から送信するものである。 Reference numeral 7 denotes a marnoco. A main body 8 to which a power cord 9 for obtaining an AC power supply is connected as in the dust collector 1 is provided with a disk-shaped saw blade 10 that rotates by driving of an AC motor. A hose 6 from the dust collector 1 is connected to a blade case 11 that covers the saw blade 10.
In addition, a transmitter 12 is built in the marnoco 7. As shown in FIG. 2, the transmitter 12 is incorporated in the motor drive circuit 15 between the AC power supply and the AC motor 13 of the marnoco 7, and is connected in parallel with the AC motor 13 to create an operation power supply. The power supply unit 16, the current detection unit 17 that operates by obtaining power from the power supply unit 16 and detects the energization of the motor drive circuit 15 via the current transformer 18, And a transmission unit 19 that operates in response to detection of current by the current detection unit 17. Reference numeral 20 denotes an antenna provided in the transmission unit 19 and constitutes a wireless transmission unit together with the transmission unit 19. That is, the transmission unit 19 transmits an operation signal from the antenna 20 when the current detection unit 17 detects energization in the motor drive circuit 15 by turning on the main switch 14 of the marnoco 7.

一方、集塵機１では、同図に示すように、ＡＣモータ２１を有するモータ駆動回路２２では、メインスイッチ２３が設けられる他、ＡＣモータ２１と並列に外部機器を接続するコンセント２４が設けられている。モータ駆動回路２２内には、ＡＣモータ２１と並列に接続されて動作電源を作成する電源部２５と、電源部２５から電源を得、変流器２７を介してコンセント２４への通電を検出する電流検出部２６と、同じく電源部２５から電源を得て動作し、電流検出部２６による電流の検出信号が入力される制御部２８が設けられている。この制御部２８には、集塵機１に設けた連動／非連動切替スイッチ２９の切替信号も入力されるようになっており、制御部２８は、電流検出部２６による検出信号の有無と、連動／非連動切替スイッチ２９の切替信号とに応じて、駆動部３０を介してモータ駆動回路２２に設けられた連動スイッチ３１をＯＮ／ＯＦＦ動作させる。   On the other hand, in the dust collector 1, as shown in the figure, the motor drive circuit 22 having the AC motor 21 is provided with a main switch 23 and an outlet 24 for connecting an external device in parallel with the AC motor 21. . In the motor drive circuit 22, a power supply unit 25 connected in parallel with the AC motor 21 to create an operating power supply, and a power supply is obtained from the power supply unit 25, and energization to the outlet 24 is detected via the current transformer 27. Similarly to the current detection unit 26, a control unit 28 is provided which operates by obtaining power from the power supply unit 25 and to which a current detection signal from the current detection unit 26 is input. The control unit 28 is also input with a switching signal of an interlock / non-interlock changeover switch 29 provided in the dust collector 1, and the control unit 28 determines the presence / absence of a detection signal from the current detection unit 26, and In response to the switching signal of the non-interlocking selector switch 29, the interlocking switch 31 provided in the motor drive circuit 22 is turned on / off via the driving unit 30.

そして、３２はアダプタで、このアダプタ３２は、コンセント２４に差し込まれるプラグ３３を有して内部に受信通電回路３４を形成している。受信通電回路３４は、プラグ３３及びコンセント２４を介して交流電源から動作電源を作成する電源部３５と、電源部３５から電源を得て動作し、送信機１２のアンテナ２０から送信された運転信号を受信可能なアンテナ３７を備えた受信部３６と、同じく電源部３５から電源を得て受信部３６での受信信号に応じて動作する駆動部３８とを備える。受信部３６とアンテナ３７とが無線受信手段となる。駆動部３８は、受信部３６が運転信号を得た場合には、受信通電回路３４に設けたスイッチ３９をＯＮさせ、運転信号が得られない場合にはスイッチ３９をＯＦＦさせる通電制御手段となる。４０は、受信通電回路内を所定の電流値で通電させるための抵抗負荷である。   Reference numeral 32 denotes an adapter. The adapter 32 has a plug 33 inserted into the outlet 24 and forms a reception energization circuit 34 therein. The reception energization circuit 34 operates by obtaining power from the power supply 35 and the power supply 35 that generates an operation power from the AC power via the plug 33 and the outlet 24, and the operation signal transmitted from the antenna 20 of the transmitter 12. And a drive unit 38 that receives power from the power supply unit 35 and operates in accordance with a signal received by the reception unit 36. The receiving unit 36 and the antenna 37 serve as wireless receiving means. The drive unit 38 is an energization control unit that turns on the switch 39 provided in the reception energization circuit 34 when the receiving unit 36 obtains the operation signal, and turns off the switch 39 when the operation signal is not obtained. . Reference numeral 40 denotes a resistance load for energizing the receiving energization circuit with a predetermined current value.

以上の如く構成された集塵機の連動システムにおいては、常にアダプタ３２のプラグ３３を集塵機１のコンセント２４に差し込んだまま使用する。この状態で連動／非連動切替スイッチ２９を切替操作して連動／非連動を選択すれば良い。
まず連動／非連動切替スイッチ２９で連動を選択し、メインスイッチ２３をＯＮした状態で、マルノコ７のメインスイッチ１４をＯＮさせてモータ駆動回路１５に通電させると、ＡＣモータ１３が駆動して鋸刃１０が回転する。このモータ駆動回路１５の通電を電流検出部１７が検出すると、送信部１９がアンテナ２０から運転信号を送信する。すると、集塵機１では、アンテナ３７を介して受信部３６が運転信号を受信するため、駆動部３８はスイッチ３９をＯＮさせて受信通電回路３４に通電させる。 In the dust collector interlocking system configured as described above, the plug 33 of the adapter 32 is always used while being inserted into the outlet 24 of the dust collector 1. In this state, the interlock / non-interlock switch 29 may be switched to select the interlock / non-interlock.
First, when the interlock is selected by the interlock / non-interchange switch 29 and the main switch 23 is turned on, the main switch 14 of the Marunoco 7 is turned on and the motor drive circuit 15 is energized. The blade 10 rotates. When the current detection unit 17 detects the energization of the motor drive circuit 15, the transmission unit 19 transmits an operation signal from the antenna 20. Then, in the dust collector 1, since the receiving unit 36 receives the operation signal via the antenna 37, the driving unit 38 turns on the switch 39 to energize the reception energizing circuit 34.

こうして交流電源からアダプタ３２の受信通電回路３４へ通電されると、集塵機１側の電流検出部２６がこれを検出するため、制御部２８が駆動部３０を介して連動スイッチ３１をＯＮさせる。よって、ＡＣモータ２１が駆動して集塵機１がマルノコ７と略同時に運転を開始することになる。   When the AC power supply is energized to the reception energization circuit 34 of the adapter 32 in this way, the current detection unit 26 on the dust collector 1 side detects this, so the control unit 28 turns on the interlock switch 31 via the drive unit 30. Therefore, the AC motor 21 is driven, and the dust collector 1 starts to operate almost simultaneously with the Marunoco 7.

マルノコ７側での作業が終了してメインスイッチ１４をＯＦＦさせると、モータ駆動回路１５での通電が停止してＡＣモータ１３が停止すると共に、電流検出部１７がこれを検出するため、送信部１９はアンテナ２０からの運転信号の送信を停止する。すると、アダプタ３２では、受信部３６で運転信号の受信が停止するため、駆動部３８がスイッチ３９をＯＦＦさせて受信通電回路３４の通電を停止させる。よって、集塵機１では、電流検出部２６でコンセント２４側への通電停止を検出した制御部２８が、駆動部３０を介して連動スイッチ３１をＯＦＦさせてＡＣモータ２１を停止させるため、集塵機１の運転がマルノコ７と略同時に停止することになる。   When the work on the marnoco 7 side is finished and the main switch 14 is turned off, the energization in the motor drive circuit 15 is stopped, the AC motor 13 is stopped, and the current detection unit 17 detects this, so that the transmission unit 19 stops the transmission of the operation signal from the antenna 20. Then, in the adapter 32, since the reception unit 36 stops receiving the operation signal, the drive unit 38 turns off the switch 39 to stop energization of the reception energization circuit 34. Therefore, in the dust collector 1, the control unit 28 that has detected that the current detection unit 26 has stopped energizing the outlet 24 side turns off the interlock switch 31 via the drive unit 30 to stop the AC motor 21. The operation stops almost simultaneously with the Marunoco 7.

一方、連動／非連動切替スイッチ２９で非連動を選択すると、制御部２８が駆動部３０を介して連動スイッチ３１をＯＮさせる。よって、メインスイッチ２３をＯＮすると、モータ駆動回路２２に通電してＡＣモータ２１が駆動し、集塵機１が単独運転するため、例えばマルノコ７を駆動させることなく集塵機１のみ運転させてホース６に残った粉塵を吸い込ませたり、マルノコ７からホース６を取り外して周囲の粉塵を吸い込ませたり等の作業を行うことができる。   On the other hand, when non-linkage is selected by the link / non-linkage changeover switch 29, the control unit 28 turns on the link switch 31 via the drive unit 30. Therefore, when the main switch 23 is turned on, the motor drive circuit 22 is energized to drive the AC motor 21 and the dust collector 1 is operated alone. For example, only the dust collector 1 is operated without driving the Maruko 7 and remains in the hose 6. It is possible to perform operations such as sucking in dust or removing the hose 6 from the maroon saw 7 and sucking in surrounding dust.

このように、上記形態の集塵機の連動システムによれば、マルノコ７に、マルノコ７のモータ駆動回路１５の通電を検出する電流検出部１７と、その電流検出部１７による検出結果に基づいて運転信号を送信する送信部１９及びアンテナ２０を備えた送信機１２を設ける一方、集塵機１のコンセント２４に、そのコンセント２４から電源を得て通電する受信通電回路３４と、送信機１２からの運転信号を受信する受信部３６及びアンテナ３７と、その受信部３６及びアンテナ３７での運転信号の受信に応じて受信通電回路３４の通電を制御する駆動部３８及びスイッチ３９を備えたアダプタ３２を差し込み接続して、マルノコ７の作動の際には、マルノコ７の運転信号を受信したアダプタ３２において受信通電回路３４が通電することで、集塵機１に連動機能を発揮させるようにしたことで、連動機能を備えた集塵機１であれば、受信機を有しない既存の集塵機でも簡単にマルノコ７に無線で連動可能となる。また、ここではアダプタ３２をコンセント２４に差し込んだままでも集塵機１の非連動への切替により単独運転が可能となるため、使い勝手に優れる。   Thus, according to the interlocking system of the dust collector of the said form, it is based on the detection result by the electric current detection part 17 which detects the energization of the motor drive circuit 15 of the marunoco 7, and the electric current detection part 17 to the marunoco 7. A transmitter 12 having a transmitter 19 and an antenna 20 is provided, and a receiving energizing circuit 34 that obtains power from the outlet 24 and energizes the outlet 24 of the dust collector 1 and an operation signal from the transmitter 12. A receiving unit 36 and an antenna 37 for receiving, and an adapter 32 including a drive unit 38 and a switch 39 for controlling energization of the receiving energization circuit 34 in response to reception of an operation signal by the receiving unit 36 and the antenna 37 are plugged in and connected. When the Marunoco 7 is activated, the reception energizing circuit 34 is energized in the adapter 32 that has received the operation signal of the Marunoco 7, By having so as to exert a cooperative function to the machine 1, if the dust collector 1 having the interlocking feature, thereby enabling linked wirelessly to easily circular saw 7 in existing dust collector having no receiver. In addition, since the single operation can be performed by switching the dust collector 1 to non-interlocking even when the adapter 32 is inserted into the outlet 24, it is excellent in usability.

なお、上記形態では、ＡＣ工具であるマルノコに送信機を内蔵した例で説明しているが、先の背景技術で提示した特許文献１に開示のように、送信機をアダプタとして電源コードとコンセントとの間に介在させるようにしてもよい。こうすれば、送信機がない既存の電動工具にも本発明が適用可能となり、設計変更やコストアップが低減されて好ましい形態となる。
また、ＡＣ工具に限らず、図３に示すように、電源として複数の蓄電池を収容したバッテリーパック４１を本体８に装着するマルノコ７ａ等のＤＣ工具であっても、バッテリーパック４１と本体８との間に送信機４２をアダプタとして介在させることで連動システムは構成可能である。勿論アダプタとしてでなく本体内に送信機を組み込むこともできる。 In the above embodiment, an example in which a transmitter is incorporated in a marnoco that is an AC tool is described. However, as disclosed in Patent Document 1 presented in the background art above, a power cord and an outlet are used with the transmitter as an adapter. You may make it interpose between. If it carries out like this, this invention will be applicable also to the existing electric tool without a transmitter, and a design change and a cost increase will be reduced and it will become a preferable form.
In addition to the AC tool, as shown in FIG. 3, the battery pack 41 and the main body 8 are not limited to a DC tool such as a Marunoko 7a that attaches a battery pack 41 containing a plurality of storage batteries as a power source to the main body 8. The interlocking system can be configured by interposing the transmitter 42 as an adapter between them. Of course, the transmitter can be incorporated in the main body instead of as an adapter.

一方、アダプタの受信通電回路やモータ駆動回路の構成も上記形態に限定するものではなく、例えば集塵機のモータ駆動回路では、メインスイッチを連動スイッチと直列に設けているが、連動スイッチと並列に設けて、連動を選択した際にはメインスイッチをＯＮさせることなく連動スイッチのＯＮ／ＯＦＦでモータ駆動回路の通電とその停止とを実行させ、非連動を選択した際には連動スイッチをＯＦＦさせたままでメインスイッチのＯＮ／ＯＦＦでモータ駆動回路の通電とその停止とを実行させるようにしても差し支えない。   On the other hand, the configuration of the reception energization circuit of the adapter and the motor drive circuit is not limited to the above-described form. For example, in the motor drive circuit of the dust collector, the main switch is provided in series with the interlock switch, but is provided in parallel with the interlock switch. When the interlock is selected, the motor drive circuit is energized and stopped by turning the interlock switch ON / OFF without turning the main switch ON, and when the interlock is selected, the interlock switch is OFF. Until the main switch is turned ON / OFF, the motor drive circuit may be energized and stopped.

また、集塵機の連動機能の切替も、上記形態のように連動／非連動切替スイッチを手動操作して行うものに限らない。例えば集塵機では、内蔵した連動／非連動切替スイッチをコンセントに設けたカバーの開閉動作に連動してＯＮ／ＯＦＦさせるものがあるが、この場合、アダプタをコンセントに差し込むためにカバーを開くと連動となり、アダプタをコンセントから外すとカバーが閉じて非連動となる。よって、集塵機の単独運転を行う際にはアダプタの取り外しが必要となるが、背景技術で提示したアダプタのように集塵機のプラグが差し込まれるコンセントの位置まで行った上でプラグを抜いてアダプタを取り外し、再びプラグをコンセントに差し込むという面倒な操作が必要がなく、集塵機側でのアダプタの取り外しのみで済むため、作業は楽となる。
その他、電動工具としてはマルノコに限らず、グラインダやサンダ、カンナ等の他のタイプであっても本発明の適用は可能である。集塵機も、連動機能を具備したものであれば、タンクや本体の形態は適宜設計変更可能である。
Further, the switching of the interlock function of the dust collector is not limited to the manual operation of the interlock / non-interlock switch as in the above embodiment. For example, some dust collectors have a built-in linked / non-linked switch that is turned on / off in conjunction with the opening / closing operation of the cover provided at the outlet, but in this case, it is linked when the cover is opened to insert the adapter into the outlet. When the adapter is removed from the outlet, the cover closes and is not linked. Therefore, when the dust collector is operated independently, it is necessary to remove the adapter. However, as with the adapter presented in the background art, the adapter is removed by unplugging the plug after removing it to the outlet where the dust collector plug is inserted. This eliminates the cumbersome operation of plugging in the outlet again, and only requires removal of the adapter on the dust collector side, which makes the work easier.
In addition, the power tool is not limited to a maroon, and the present invention can be applied to other types such as a grinder, a sander, and a canna. As long as the dust collector also has an interlocking function, the form of the tank and the main body can be appropriately changed.
