ABSTRACT:

FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to an electric-powered tool and an illuminating device received in the tool, and more particularly, to an electric-powered tool having two illuminating members connected beside the driving shaft and the illuminating members are controlled by a switch attached to the body of the tool.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Many conventional electric-powered tools are designed to improve their functions or features to perform quickly or powerfully. One of the advantages of the electric-powered tool is that the electric-power makes the work to be easily completed so that any user can use the tool without troubles. However, although most of the electric-powered tools have a great feature to powerfully drill a hole or hammer a nail, they do not equipped with an illuminating device to provide sufficient light on the object. In other words, if the user wants to work in a dark area, he/she has to carry with a flashlight and uses one hand to hold the tool and the other hand to hold the flashlight. This more or less limits the user to handle the tool and could reduce the concentration of his/her mind on the object.
The present invention intends to provide an electric-powered tool having an illuminating device which can be turned on together with the driving shaft so that when using the tool, the user simply turns on the switch of the tool, the object is illuminated so that it is convenience for the user to deal with the object by the electric-powered tool. It is believed that the combination of the electric-powered tool and the illuminating device may resolve the shortcomings of the conventional electric-powered tool.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
In accordance with one aspect of the present invention, there is provided an combination of an electric-powered tool and an illuminating device. The electric-powered tool comprises a handle for receiving batteries therein and a barrel portion extending laterally from the handle. A driving shaft rotatably extends from the distal end of the barrel portion and controlled by a switch connected to the barrel portion. The switch is electrically connected to the driving shaft and the batteries. The illuminating device comprises two bulbs attached beside the driving shaft and are electrically connected to the switch.
It is an object of the present invention to provide an electric-powered tool having an illuminating device which illuminates the object when turning on the electric-powered tool.
