There is provided a driving machine capable of reducing a load applied to a guide member in a direction of a center axis. The driving machine drives a fastener into a workpiece. The driving machine includes a movable piston, a driver blade operating together with the piston and applying driving force to the fastener, a cylinder guiding operation of the piston, a holder provided in a housing and supporting the cylinder, and a vibration damping rubber interposed between the holder and the housing and receiving a load applied to the holder in an operational direction of the piston.

A driver includes a pressure chamber, a striking portion, an operation member, and a contact member, and can select a first mode and a second mode. The driver further includes a first ventilation passage, a second ventilation passage, and opening/closing mechanisms. The opening/closing mechanisms have a first state to open the first ventilation passage and close the second ventilation passage in the first mode, a second state, when an operation force is applied to the operation member within a time from when the second mode is selected and the contact member contacts a workpiece, to close the first ventilation passage and open the second ventilation passage, and a third state, when an operation force is applied to the operation member within a time from when the second mode is selected and the contact member is separated from the workpiece, to close the second ventilation passage.

A pneumatic pallet nailer includes a nailer body, a trigger member, a pallet clamp controlling member, a pallet clamp cylinder and a pallet clamp. The trigger member is disposed on the nailer body. The pallet clamp controlling member is disposed on the nailer body and includes an internal space, a first pipe, a second pipe, a third pipe and an actuating valve. The air in the nailer body is communicated with the internal space by the first pipe and the second pipe. The third pipe is communicated with the internal space. The actuating valve is movably disposed in the internal space, and the actuating valve is actuated and positioned at a first position or a second position. The pallet clamp cylinder is communicated to the third pipe. When the trigger member is pressed, the pallet clamp is actuated by the pallet clamp cylinder to clamp a workpiece.

A fastening tool of the present invention includes a housing having an underside. The fastening tool also includes a magazine and a support foot connected to one of the housing underside and the magazine. Using a system of cooperating detents formed on the support foot and housing underside (or magazine, as the case may be), the support foot can be quickly and easily removably secured to the fastening tool without using any tools.

A pneumatic tool includes a drive mechanism configured to drive by an air pressure of compressed air, a head valve having a first chamber configured to reserve compressed air that is supplied from an air source, and configured to drive the drive mechanism, according to a state of the compressed air in the first chamber, a trigger valve configured to actuate the head valve by exhausting the compressed air in the first chamber, and a control valve configured to disable actuation of the trigger valve.

A striking tool includes: a driver which is provided to be slidable toward an ejecting port provided in a tip end of the striking tool so as to strike out a fastener from the ejecting port; a plunger to which the driver is coupled; a plunger urging member which is configured to urge the plunger toward the ejecting port: and a drive mechanism which is configured to move the plunger to accumulate urging force in the plunger urging member. A standby position of the plunger before striking out the fastener can be switched between a usual standby position and a standby position for maintenance closer to the ejecting port than the usual standby position.
