- the heat radiating plate 35b extending above the upper end position of the ceramic package is exposed to the outside of the resin, so that the heat radiating plate 35b is exposed to the air flow generated by the cooling fan 10, which is favorable. Heat dissipation can be realized.
- the heat sink 40 is partially located inside the resin, most of the heat sink 40 is exposed to the outside from the resin. Therefore, the heat sink 40 is firmly fixed so as not to be rattled by the resin. The effect of being cooled well by the flow is obtained.
- the thickness of the switching element 38 is T f
- the thickness of the heat sink 40 corresponding thereto is configured to be equal to or greater than the 2T f.
- the heat sink 40 having such a thickness, it becomes easy to fix the switching elements on both surfaces using the screws 43, and the screw holes 40a can be formed.
- the heat sink 40 is aluminum, it is lightweight and can be manufactured at a relatively low cost, while having a sufficient heat capacity, it is possible to achieve good heat dissipation performance.
- FIG. 40 Various shapes of the heat sink 40 are conceivable, and various shapes such as those having a complicated fin shape using aluminum extrusion molding may be used.
- a simple light metal alloy thick plate is used, and six screw holes 40a are formed on both sides thereof.
- the screw hole 40a is arranged such that another screw hole 40a is arranged on the opposite side, and the two screw holes 40a facing each other are located on the same axis.
- three screw holes 40a are formed on one surface, and a line connecting the three screw holes 40a extends in the left-right direction orthogonal to the rotation shaft 5c. This arrangement improves the weight balance between the top, bottom, left and right.
- the width Wa of the heat sink 40 may be 41 mm
- the plate thickness Ta is 10 mm
- the height Ha is about 43 mm.
- the two screw holes 40a facing each other may be positioned on the same axis or shifted in a relatively arbitrary manner, and is not limited to the arrangement of the present embodiment.
- the dial 9 is provided in a portion 48 sandwiched at right angles in the L-shaped space 47.
- This relationship is a positional relationship in which the front-rear position Sa occupied by the heat sink 40 and the front-rear position Sd occupied by the dial 9 overlap in the vertical direction, that is, in a direction intersecting with the direction along the rotation shaft 5c.
- the rotation speed adjusting means (the dial 9 or the like) is arranged so as to overlap the heat sink 40 in the direction of the rotation axis (longitudinal direction of the main body housing 2).
- the plate thickness Ta (see FIG. 7) of the heat sink 40 is smaller than the height dimension Hh of the L-shaped space 47
- the width Wa (see FIG. 6) of the heat sink 40 is the height dimension of the L-shaped space 47.
- Hh the height of the inner wall portion of the main body housing 2 near the front and rear center of the heat sink 40. That is, the horizontal dimension (width Wa) in which the switching elements 33 to 38 of the heat sink 40 are lined up is larger than the height dimension (Hh) of the housing orthogonal thereto.
- this invention is not limited to the above-mentioned Example, A various change is possible within the range which does not deviate from the meaning.
- a method of detecting the position of the rotor magnet using a position detection element but a so-called sensorless method in which the rotor position is detected by extracting the induced voltage (back electromotive force) of the coil of the stator 5b as a logical signal through a filter.
- a secondary battery pack is used as a power source.
- an AC power source and a rectifier circuit may be used as in the conventional example.
- a power supply circuit board may be further provided on the rear side of the control board 31, and a full-wave rectification circuit using a diode bridge and a capacitor for converting alternating current into direct current may be mounted.
- the present invention is not limited to the disk grinder, and may be applied to other electric tools that drive the motor using an inverter circuit. .
