The plug guide (11) of the device includes a zone having an enlarged circular section (21) at the opening of the magazine (19) leading into the plug guide (11), extending axially over the length (h) of a sleeve (15) increased by the stroke of the plug guide (11) for loading the device (L-L′).
Abstract:
A magazine includes a base having nail slots defined therein and a cover is slidably mounted to the base. A first end member and a second end member are respectively connected to the first and second ends of the cover. A plurality of rods extend through the first end member, the nail slots and the second end member. Each rod has a biasing member and a pushing member which is biased by the biasing member so as to push the nails in the nail slots. A plurality of bolts extend through the second end member and contact against the second end of the cover so that when rotating the bolts to move the second end member away from the second end of the cover, the rods are straightened. The pushing members on the rods push the nails of different lengths to be arranged in order in the magazine.
Abstract:
A machine for fastening rail plates to cross-ties, utilizing spikes or the like, and method therefore, is disclosed in the present invention. The preferred apparatus of the present invention teaches a system wherein there is provided a conveyor for conveying a plurality of laterally arranged, juxtaposed ties in bulk, a loader or retriever for loading a single tie upon a template conveyer, and a positioner for positioning the single tie during the pre-plating process. The present invention further includes a template system for securing the cross-tie or tie in place, feeding and positioning the rail-plate in place, feeding, dispensing, and positioning the spikes in place, driving the spikes, and discharging the processed tie, the template system utilizing as a principle motive force the displacement of the template reciprocating drive piston for positioning the template, as well as dispensing and positioning the spikes and plates.
Abstract:
A device for driving nails in at least one selected nailing pattern into an arrangement of components is disclosed. The device includes a frame, a retaining means for retaining an arrangement of components to be nailed in the frame, a nailing means comprising a plurality of movable nailing heads for delivering nails in the selected nailing pattern to the arrangement, a nail delivery means for delivering nails to the nailing heads, means for causing at least one of the nailing heads to move in a direction transverse to a machine direction relative to the nailing surface during a nailing operation, means for causing the nailing heads to move in a machine direction and in an opposite direction relative to the arrangement of components and means for causing the nailing heads to move in a direction normal to a machine direction.
Abstract:
An automatic nailing head for an automatic nailing device is disclosed. A nailing head including a means for causing an angle between a central shank axis of the nail and a central axis of the throughbore to gradually decrease as the nail passes through a nail feed channel and into the throughbore is described. A picker plate capable of receiving a nail when in a first position and dropping the picked nail when moved to a second position is described. A nailing head with a quick release body portion for unjamming the heads without the use of tools is also described.
Abstract:
A chuck device for driving nails into boards includes a nail-driving mechanism and a staging mechanism for positioning the nails to be driven by the nail-driving mechanism. A driving mechanism drives both the nail-driving mechanism and the staging mechanism for positioning the nails. A countersink control mechanism positioned between the staging mechanism and the driving mechanism provides the capability for selectively changing and fixing a distance between the staging mechanism and the driving mechanisms and a distance between the staging mechanism and the nail-driving mechanism.
Abstract:
A nail driving tool is disclosed as including a magazine (9) which, in turn, includes a guide path (7) for guiding a plurality of nails (10.sub.1, 10.sub.2, 10.sub.3. . . ) which are preferably disposed in the form of a nail strip. The guide path (7) is open at an outlet opening (2) from or through which a first or leading nail (10.sub.1) is conveyed into a discharge channel (3). A driving mechanism, such as, for example, a pneumatic driver (11) is disposed within the discharge channel (3) for driving or discharging the leading nail (10.sub.1) from or through the discharge channel (3). A cantilevered leaf spring (8) has one end thereof fixedly mounted upon the magazine (9) while the opposite free end thereof engages the second nail (10.sub.2) disposed immediately upstream of the leading nail (10.sub.1) so as to retain all of the nails disposed upstream of the leading nail (10.sub.1) while the leading nail (10.sub.1) is disposed in its readied state for discharge from the discharge channel (3) by the driver (11). A magnet (4) is disposed within a blind bore (6) upon the opposite side of the discharge channel (3) with respect to the outlet opening (2) for retaining the leading nail (10.sub.1) within the discharge channel (3) at its readied disposition for discharge by the driver (11). A bottom or end wall (5) of the blind bore (6) serves as a protection device for protecting the magnet (4) from the nails as the latter are serially conveyed into the discharge channel (3).
