Abstract:
An electric working machine of one aspect of the present disclosure includes a connection port, a control circuit, and/or a power supply switch. The power supply switch is provided on a power supply path extending from a battery pack connected to the connection port to the control circuit. The power supply switch maintains an ON state while a power supply permission signal is output from the battery pack to the electric working machine. The control circuit outputs an ON-command signal to the power supply switch for a specified period of time in response to loss of the power supply permission signal from the battery pack.
Abstract:
One aspect of the present disclosure provides an electric working machine. The electric working machine includes a driver, a motor, and a control circuit. Attached to the driver is a selected tool. The motor drives the selected tool attached to the driver. The control circuit sets a target rotational frequency based on the selected tool. The control circuit controls the motor to rotate at the target rotational frequency.
Abstract:
An electric working machine in one aspect of the present disclosure includes a motor, a controller, and a setter. The controller is configured to change a rotational state of the motor, in response to an establishment of a condition for change after the motor is initiated, from a low speed rotation to a high speed rotation. The setter is configured to set, based on a situation in the motor in the low speed rotation, a control variable of the motor in the high speed rotation and/or the condition for change.
Abstract:
In one aspect of the present disclosure, an electric working machine includes a three-phase brushless motor, a first switching element, a second switching element, a third switching element, a fourth switching element, a fifth switching element, a sixth switching element, a rotation detector, a brake controller. The brake controller executes a two-phase short-circuit brake. The two-phase short-circuit brake is executed so as to switch any of the fourth switching element, the fifth switching element, and the sixth switching element to a corresponding ON-state or an OFF-state in response a detection signal from the rotation detector that occurs prior to a switching time.
Abstract:
A work apparatus in one aspect of the present disclosure comprises a control unit, a volatile memory and a rewritable non-volatile memory. The control unit comprises an update processing unit and a writing processing unit. The writing processing unit writes history information in the volatile memory into the non-volatile memory when the writing processing unit predicts a suspension of supply of an electric power to the control unit.
Abstract:
An electric power tool in one aspect of the present disclosure comprises a motor, a hitting mechanism, a hitting detector, and a control unit. The control unit is configured to set a control amount of the motor so that the motor rotates at a lower speed than a speed in the target rotation state during an initial driving period, and switch the control amount to a final control amount corresponding to the target rotation state when the initial driving period elapses. The initial driving period is a period from when generation of a hitting force is detected by the hitting detector until a predetermined first time period elapses, after the motor is started driven.
Abstract:
A brush cutter as a power tool includes a combustion engine, an electric motor, a gear head which drives a blade, a battery pack which provides electric current to the electric motor and a controller which controls a driving of the blade. An output shaft of the combustion engine and an output shaft of the electric motor are arranged coaxially to each other. Further, the combustion engine drives the gear head and thereby the blade is driven. The controller has a first control mode in which the blade is driven and a second control mode in which the battery pack is charged. In the second control mode, the controller controls the combustion engine so that the combustion engine drives the electric motor as a generator without driving the blade, and the battery pack is charged by the generator.
