A fastening tool for driving a fastener into a workpiece is described herein. The fastening tool includes a contact trip, a magnet, and a magnetometer. The contact trip is disposed at a first end of the fastening tool and is configured to move toward a second end of the fastening tool opposite of the first end when the contact trip engages the workpiece. The magnet is configured to generate a magnetic field. The magnet is coupled to the contact trip such that movement of the contact trip causes the magnet to move. The magnetometer is configured to detect a change in the magnetic field generated by the magnet when the magnet moves relative to the magnetometer and, based on the detected change in the magnetic field, to generate a signal indicating when the contact trip engages the workpiece.

A tool is provided for applying fasteners to a workpiece. The tool as a magazine that carries multiple fasteners and is carried by a housing. A driver blade is provided to drive a lead fastener into a workpiece. The driver blade has a driving edge with a profile that includes driving projections, having curved contact surface for contact with curved edges of the fastener, and a relief portion therebetween that is recessed relative to both projections and contact surfaces. Further, the tool includes a lockout assembly for limiting movement of the driver blade and contact trip, thereby limiting activation of the motor. The pusher may include a pusher lockout surface that is designed for movement in an opposite direction to a feed direction by the contact trip as well as configured to slide over a locking art of the contact trip when the fasteners are empty or nearly empty.

An electric tool includes a motor, an operation part provided to be operable by a user, a motor drive control unit configured to perform control of driving the motor in response to the operation part being operated, a temperature sensor, and a temperature determination unit configured to determine overheating of the motor. The temperature determination unit is configured to estimate a temperature of the motor based on a drive situation of the motor and a detection result of the temperature sensor, and to determine the overheating of the motor based on the estimated temperature.

An electric nail gun includes a supporting frame, a swing arm, a driving unit, and a safety unit. The swing arm has a driven segment and is pivotable relative to the supporting frame between a standby position and a shooting position. The driving unit includes a driving member in contact with the driven segment of the swing arm and operable for moving the swing arm towards the shooting position. The safety unit has a stopping member that is driven by the driving member to move relative to the driven segment between a stopping position, where the stopping member blocks movement of the driven segment, and a releasing position, where the movement of the swing arm towards the shooting position is permitted.

A spring arm sleeve, with which a joining element of a joining device is positionable and which comprises the following features: a tubular section which is formed by a circumferential or all-round wall, the circumferential wall comprises in the circumferential direction a plurality of U-shaped apertures regularly spaced apart from one another, which form a plurality of one-sidedly fastened spring arms which are inclined radially inwards into the tubular section and extend from a fixed end in a first longitudinal direction.

A control and protection mechanism and a nail gun having the same. The control and protection mechanism includes first and second micro-motion switches, a toggle block, a lock pin, an actuating member, a micro-motion contact and a driving rod. The switch bracket is attached to the main body; the first and second micro-motion switches are fixed on the switch bracket; the toggle block is rotatably attached to the switch bracket, and includes a lock groove, a trigger end and a toggle end. The toggle end is operably coupled to the first micro-motion switch and the trigger end extends into inside the main body such that when the piston moves in the cylinder to a position, the piston pushes the trigger end to prompt the toggle block to rotate and therefore the toggle end to move, thereby causing the first micro-motion switch to change its switch state.

A nail gun includes a nail gun body unit, and a magazine unit. The nail gun body unit has a drive module, a nail-discharging section, and a firing channel that is formed in the nail-discharging section, and that extends along a firing axis. The nail-discharging section has a base segment, and a guide segment having a guide surface. The base segment has a tip section that has a tip face. The tip face and the guide surface have a height difference in the direction of the firing axis. The magazine unit is connected to the nail gun body unit, and is adapted to accommodate nails. The drive module is adapted for firing the nails that are positioned within the firing channel to move along the firing axis.

A nail gun includes a frame unit, a flywheel, and a nail-striking device that includes an actuation unit, an impact member and an accidental discharge prevention unit. The actuation unit includes a safety subunit. The impact member has a confining portion. The accidental discharge prevention unit includes a restraining member located between the confining portion of the impact member and the safety subunit. The actuation unit is operable to convert the restraining member from a restraining state, in which the restraining member restrains movement of the confining portion of the impact member, to a releasing state, in which the movement of the confining portion of the impact member is permitted.

A driving tool comprises a displacement allowing mechanism that allows a wheel to be displaced in a radial direction of a rotation shaft. The driving tool further comprises a displacement restricting mechanism that restricts the wheel from being displaced in the radial direction of the rotation shaft. When a driver is to start being moved upwards by an engagement of a first engagement portion with an engaged portion by rotation of the wheel, a displacement restriction state of the wheel caused by the displacement restricting mechanism is released, allowing an entirety of the wheel to be displaceable in the radial direction of the rotation shaft due to the displacement allowing mechanism.

A driver including: an ejection part to which a fastener is supplied; a driver blade which moves from a first position toward a second position and drives the fastener into a driven member; and a rack provided to the driver blade. The driver further includes: a rotary component engaging with the rack and moving the driver blade from the second position to the first position; and a lock plate engaging with the rack. The driver blade moves from the second position to the first position while the rotary component rotates once, the rotary component is released from engaging with the rack after the driver blade moves from the second position to the first position, and moves from the first position to the second position, and the lock plate is engageable with the rack when the driver blade stops before reaching the second position from the first position.
