A portable tool for mobile use includes a housing, an electric motor located in the housing, an insert shaft on the tool, and a battery. The battery or a terminal for connecting to an external energy source is located in the insert shaft. A mechanically or hydraulically driven movable piston rod is for performing spreading, cutting, lifting, and/or pressing. An electronic device controls and/or regulates the electric motor and includes a printed circuit board with a potting compound on which electronic components are arranged. An electrically conductive on the insert shaft allows a releasable electric contact between the battery and the electronic device of the tool by inserting the battery into the insert shaft. The contact is divided into a first and second surface regions. The first surface region is covered with a nonconductive protective layer, and the second surface region is free of the protective layer.

Portable tool for mobile use

A mobile portable tool, such as a spreading device, cutting device or combined device with cutting and spreading function includes a housing. An electric motor is located in the housing. The tool includes a rechargeable battery or a connection to an external electrical energy source. The tool is a mechanically or hydraulically driven and has a displaceable piston rod spreading and/or cutting and/or lifting and/or pressing work. An electronic open-loop and closed-loop control unit controls the electric motor and includes a printed circuit board and control cables with a connector for transporting control signals. For under water operation while still having a simple design, the electric motor is a brushless direct-current motor. The electronic components of the printed circuit board are enclosed by a potting compound to prevent water entering, and the connector of the control cable is protected against the ingress of water.
