Assembling structure for a conductive plate of a handheld power tool
(57) Abstract

An assembling structure for a conductive plate of a handheld power tool has a battery having a casing, a circuit board, an adapter, and multiple conductive plates. The circuit board, the adapter and the conductive plates are all located in the casing. The adapter is mounted on a top surface of the circuit board, and has multiple adapting grooves. The conductive plates are mounted in the adapting grooves of the adapter respectively, and are electrically connected to the circuit board. By mounting the adapter on the top surface of the circuit board and mounting the conductive plates in the adapting grooves of the adapter respectively, the conductive plates and the circuit board are able to be combined and fixed together by the adapter without the welding progress, which reduces the consumable cost, the labor cost, and the time consumption.

Claims (2)

  1. An assembling structure for a conductive plate of a handheld power tool, the assembling structure comprising: a battery having a casing having a base; a cover mounted on the base; an inner space formed between the base and the cover; and at least one conducting hole formed on the cover; a circuit board located in the inner space of the casing; an adapter located in the inner space of the casing; the adapter mounted on a top surface of the circuit board and having multiple adapting grooves; and multiple conductive plates located in the inner space of the casing, disposed below the cover, and corresponding in position to the at least one conducting hole of the cover, the conductive plates being downwardly mounted in the adapting grooves of the adapter respectively and electrically connected to the circuit board, the adapter being mounted between the conductive plates and the circuit board, wherein multiple combining holes are formed on the top surface of the circuit board, multiple combining pillars are formed on a bottom surface of the adapter and are mounted through the combining holes respectively, and each one of the conductive plates of the battery has a connecting segment formed through the bottom surface of the adapter, the connecting segment abutting, and being electrically connected to, the circuit board.
  2. The assembling structure as claimed in claim 1, wherein the adapter of the battery is detachably mounted to the top surface of the circuit board; and the conductive plates are detachably mounted in the adapting grooves, respectively.

Description

1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a tool, especially to a handheld power tool. 2. Description of the Prior Arts A handheld power tool makes assembling or disassembling of objects easier and more effective. The handheld power tool uses a battery as a power source and is combined with a traditional hand tool such as a screwdriver or a drill so that people can use a handheld power tool instead of manually driving the hand tools. The abovementioned handheld power tool has a driving assembly, a handheld seat, and a battery. The battery is detachably mounted on a bottom end of the handheld seat as a power source to drive the driving assembly which is mounted on a top end of the handheld seat. Thus, by mounting a hand tool such as a screwdriver or a drill on the driving assembly, a user is able to drive the tool by electricity instead of driving the tool manually. After a conventional handheld seat is combined with a conventional battery (which means after the battery is combined with protruding ribs formed on a bottom end of the handheld seat), a conductive structure formed on the bottom end of the handheld seat will be mounted into a conducting hole formed on a top end of the battery and abuts and electrically connects a conductive plate mounted in the conducting hole, and then forms a circuit. The conventional conductive plate is welded directly to a circuit board inside the battery and corresponds in position to the conducting hole in order to be electrically connected.
