مستخلص: In a grinder, a terminal plate is projectingly provided on an upper surface of a controller. A connection portion, which accommodates a female terminal and includes a slit into which the terminal plate enters, is projectingly provided on a lower surface of a main body portion of a switch block. At the time of assembling of the switch block and the controller, the terminal plate that enters into the connection portion from the slit is inserted into and connected to the female terminal. First and second projections that cover a formation surface of the slit in the connection portion when the connection portion is inserted with and connected to the terminal plate are formed on the upper surface of the controller.

Claim: 1. A grinder comprising: a cylindrical housing that accommodates a motor; a switch block that is assembled to a rear portion of the housing, and includes a switch that turns driving of the motor on and off; a controller that is assembled to the switch block, and includes a control circuit of the motor; a male terminal that is projectingly provided on one assembling surface of one of the switch block and the controller; a connection portion that is projectingly provided on the other assembling surface of the switch block and the controller, and accommodates a female terminal and includes an entry opening of the male terminal, wherein at the time of assembling of the switch block and the controller, the male terminal that enters from the entry opening is inserted into and connected to the female terminal; and a closing portion that is formed on the one assembling surface, and covers at least a formation surface of the entry opening of the connection portion with the male terminal in an inserted and connected state.
Claim: 2. The grinder according to claim 1, wherein the controller is provided with a controller terminal that is electrically connected to the motor side through the switch block, and the switch block is provided with a positioning portion that positions the controller terminal at a position of connection with the motor side at the time of assembling of the controller.
Claim: 3. The grinder according to claim 2, wherein the positioning portion is formed as a cylinder through which the controller terminal runs.
Claim: 4. The grinder according to claim 1, wherein the housing is formed with a holding portion that suppresses detachment of the switch from the switch block by contacting an outer surface of the switch at the time of assembling of the switch block.
Claim: 5. The grinder according to claim 4, wherein the holding portion is a plate-shaped rib that contacts along the outer surface of the switch.
Claim: 6. The grinder according to claim 1, wherein the closing portion is a projection that is provided adjacent to the male terminal, and fits to a recessed portion that is provided recessed on the formation surface of the entry opening.
Claim: 7. The grinder according to claim 6, wherein the switch block and the controller are assembled by sliding the assembling surface of the controller in parallel from behind to a position opposing the assembling surface of the switch block, the male terminal is a terminal plate that is projectingly provided parallel to a direction of the sliding, and the entry opening of the connection portion is a slit into which the terminal plate enters while sliding, and formed spanning over two surfaces comprising a surface orthogonal to the other assembling surface of the connection portion and a surface parallel to the other assembling surface, with the recessed portion formed spanning over the two surfaces.
Claim: 8. The grinder according to claim 7, wherein the projection is a first projection that fits to a portion of the recessed portion on the orthogonal surface side, and a second projection that is provided at a base of the terminal plate and fits to a portion of the recessed portion on the parallel surface side.
Claim: 9. The grinder according to claim 7, wherein a pair of reverse L-shaped rail projections having an outward-facing engagement side is projectingly provided on the one assembling surface, and a pair of L-shaped engagement projections that respectively engage with the rail projections in an assembled state of the switch block and the controller is projectingly provided on the other assembling surface.
Claim: 10. The grinder according to claim 1, wherein the controller is provided with a hook that engages with an engagement hole that is provided on the switch block in a state where the controller is assembled to the switch block.
Claim: 11. The grinder according to claim 10, wherein the controller is provided with a fitting projection that fits into a fitting hole that is provided on the switch block in a state where the controller is assembled to the switch block.
Claim: 12. The grinder according to claim 1, wherein a stator of the motor is formed with a front insertion portion that faces rearward and accommodates a coil-side terminal that is connected to a coil, the housing is formed with a cylindrical member into which the front insertion portion is inserted with the motor in an accommodated state, and the switch block is formed with a rear insertion portion that accommodates a switch-side terminal that corresponds to the coil-side terminal, with the rear insertion portion inserted into the cylindrical member in a state where the switch block is assembled to a rear portion of the housing so as to electrically connect the switch-side terminal to the coil-side terminal.
Claim: 13. The grinder according to claim 1, wherein the switch block is provided with a receiving seat that fixes a power cord.
Claim: 14. The grinder according to claim 1, wherein the switch block and the controller are assembled by sliding the assembling surface of the controller in parallel from behind to a position opposing the assembling surface of the switch block, the male terminal is a terminal plate that is projectingly provided parallel to a direction of the sliding, and the closing portion is formed from a first plate that is provided orthogonally adjacent to the terminal plate and contacts an entry surface for the terminal plate on the connection portion, and a pair of second plates that is provided orthogonally continuous from both ends of the first plate and contacts both side surfaces adjacent to the entry surface on the connection portion.
Claim: 15. The grinder according to claim 1, wherein the switch block and the controller are assembled by translating one of the assembling surfaces of the switch block and the controller from mutually opposing positions of the assembling surfaces to the other assembling surface, the male terminal is a terminal plate that is projectingly provided parallel to a direction of the translating, and the closing portion is a cylinder that is provided on a periphery of the terminal plate, and externally fits to the connection portion with the switch block and the controller in an assembled state so as to cover a periphery of the connection portion.
Claim: 16. The grinder according to claim 8, wherein a pair of reverse L-shaped rail projections having an outward-facing engagement side is projectingly provided on the one assembling surface, and a pair of L-shaped engagement projections that respectively engage with the rail projections in an assembled state of the switch block and the controller is projectingly provided on the other assembling surface.
