Abstract:
A method for operating a driving-in device for fastening elements comprises a motor operating according to a particular pattern when there are no more fastening elements in a magazine of the driving-in device.
Abstract:
A dual positionable adaptor for a fastener driver assembly employs a guide assembly mounted to a guide head which has an entry surface for a fastener. The arms each define a pair of reference engagement edges which engage either an upper horizontal member or a lower horizontal member and together with the entry surface defines a proper entry location and angle for connecting a vertical stud to either an upper plate or a lower plate. In one embodiment, the dual positionable adaptor may employ a pair of pivoting arms which defines one of two pivot positions for a guide assembly. Arms of the guide assembly each have a first reference engagement edge and a second reference engagement edge. In a first guide position, the adaptor provides an optimal position and entry angle for connecting a top plate to a lateral blocking. In a second position, the adaptor provides an optimal position and entry angle for driving a fastener through a lower plate into a lateral blocking.
Abstract:
A nail channel for a fastening tool. The nail channel can be a unitary piece or have a variety of parts. The nail channel can have a first portion provided by a fastener magazine and a second portion provided by a nosepiece insert. The nail channel can be formed when the nosepiece insert is reversibly engaged with a nose end of a nailer magazine. The nail channel can also position a fastener, such as a nail, for driving into a workpiece. Methods of forming and using the nail channel are also disclosed.
Abstract:
The pole comprises a securing end, with device securing means and the device actuating means, a gripping end to be gripped by an operator and telecontrolling means for telecontrolling the actuating means. The actuating means are arranged in the device securing means and are directly controlled by the securing end of the pole and thus telecontrolled by the pole and its gripping end under the action of a thrust of the pole towards the support material. The device actuating means comprise safety means arranged to avoid by gravity the control of the actuating means by the securing end of the pole when the spatial position of the pole is inappropriate. The invention also relates to an anchoring device provided with the same safety means.
Abstract:
A fastener driving tool including a housing, a cylinder enclosed by the housing, at least one sensor associated with the cylinder and a piston configured to reciprocate within the cylinder and having a driver blade depending therefrom. The tool includes at least one signal generator associated with the piston, where movement of the piston relative to the at least one sensor generates a signal. A controller is configured to receive the signal and indicate a fastening result based on the signal.
Abstract:
An anti-separating mechanism for preventing a fastener strip from separating from a fastener gun is disclosed. The anti-separating mechanism is disposed in the fastener gun. The fastener gun includes a gun body, a fastener magazine and a feed member. The gun body includes a firing channel to receive a fastener. The fastener magazine is connected to the firing channel and is utilized to guide the fastener strip including a plurality of fasteners. The feed member is utilized to push the fastener strip in a first to direction toward the firing channel. The anti-separating mechanism includes a lever pivotally disposed on the fastener magazine. The lever swings between a stop position and a release position. The lever includes a stop surface, a withstanding portion and a tapered pushing surface. The tapered pushing surface is farther from the firing channel than the stop surface.
Abstract:
A guide bushing of a palm hammer comprises a prism-shaped muzzle cover and a muzzle, wherein the muzzle cover and the muzzle are connected through bolts and joined into a body of the guide bushing; the body of the guide bushing may be axially moved in a bracket of the palm hammer; the parts of the muzzle cover and the muzzle near the distal gradually narrow into a chisel-shape; the proximal of the body of the guide bushing rests against a spring on the hammer body of the palm hammer; the body of the guide bushing axially moves in the bracket; a bore used for accommodating a nail and a driving rod is axially opened on the muzzle; one end of a bumper protrudes out of the distal of the body of the guide bushing.
Abstract:
A fastening tool having a feed funnel adapted to position a nail for driving into a workpiece and which can guide the nail during driving. The feed funnel can be part of a magazine interface, or a nosepiece insert, or the feed funnel can be a unitary part. The feed funnel can also be formed by portions of the magazine interface and the nosepiece insert. Methods using the feed funnel for feeding and driving one or more nails are disclosed.
Abstract:
A multifunctional nail gun includes a main body, a piston rod, a nail pipe sleeve, a guide rail and a nail feeder, wherein the rear end of the piston rod is positioned in the main body, while the front end extends into the nail pipe sleeve; the nail pipe sleeve is positioned at the front end of the main body; and the guide rail and the upper end of the nail feeder are fixed on the lower surface of the nail pipe sleeve. The multifunctional nail gun also includes a replaceable gun head, a nail pipe cap, an adjusting screw rod, and an adjusting knob.
Abstract:
A washer holding device for temporarily retaining nonmagnetic washers being applied to a building material surface with a fastener gun comprises an arm for affixing the washer holding device to a fastener gun and a washer receptacle joined to the arm. The washer receptacle includes a contacting end, a washer receiving cavity, and a central aperture, with the contacting end defining a distal end of the washer holding device and the cavity sized to receive a nonmagnetic washer such that the washer is temporarily retained within the cavity via a friction fit. An embodiment may include a shoulder, such as an annular flange, recessed from the contacting end, with the shoulder adapted to contact the surface of a deformable building material to limit the depression of the washer receptacle into the building material. The arm may be of various configurations for use with different style fastener guns.
