Realized is a driving device capable of controlling driving timing of a blade and driving timing of a feeder independently. The driving device of the present invention has a housing having an injection path, a blade hitting a nail supplied to the injection path, an electric motor, a controller controlling drive of the electric motor, a magazine accommodating connected nails, and a supply, mechanism sequentially supplying the connected nails, which are accommodated in the magazine, to the injection path. The supply mechanism has a reciprocable feeder backward and forward, an energizing member energizing the feeder forward, and a stopper holding a position of the backward moved feeder against energization of the energizing member. Then, holding the position of the feeder by the stopper is released based on control of the controller.

A driver capable of suppressing an increase in a load of a bumper is provided. The driver includes a striking portion provided movably and configured to move to strike a fastener; a bumper configured to be in contact with the striking portion to restrict a range of movement of the striking portion; and a housing configured to support the bumper, the driver further including a load suppressing portion configured to suppress an increase in a load of the bumper based on the load of the bumper detected by a load detection portion or number of operations of the striking portion within a predetermined time.

An electric nail gun includes a muzzle seat, a safety component being movable relative to the muzzle seat, and a cylinder unit connected to the muzzle seat and including a striking cylinder, at least one storage chamber that is adapted for storing pressurized air, and a sealing cap that is coupled to the striking cylinder and the at least one storage chamber. The electric nail gun further includes an air valve disposed in the cylinder unit and being directly and solely movable by the safety component from a closed position to an open position to allow the pressurized air to flow into the striking cylinder, and a nail-striking unit driven movably by the pressurized air for striking a nail when the air valve is at the open position.

A pneumatic tool includes a drive part configured to be driven by compressed air, a control valve configured to switch the presence or absence of operation of the drive part, an on-off valve part configured to switch the presence or absence of operation of the control valve, and a timer part configured to control the operation of the on-off valve part and switch the presence or absence of operation of the control valve after a lapse of a predetermined time. The timer part comprises a timer piston configured to move in one direction, and a timer piston cylinder configured to support the timer piston. The pneumatic tool comprises a throttle part configured to throttle the flow rate of air flowing into or flowing out from the timer piston cylinder, and an adjustment part configured to adjust an operating time of the timer piston.

A powered fastener driver includes a first cylinder, a first piston positioned within the first cylinder, a second cylinder in fluid communication with the first cylinder, and a second piston positioned within the second cylinder. The first piston is moveable between a top-dead-center position and at or near a bottom-dead-center position and the second piston is moveable between a top-dead-center position and a bottom-dead-center position to initiate a fastener driving cycle. A drive blade is coupled to the second piston for movement therewith and a drive mechanism is configured to drive the first piston between the top-dead-center position and at or near the bottom-dead-center position. The drive mechanism includes a crank arm that rotates less than 360 degrees for moving the first piston from at or near the bottom-dead-center position and the top-dead-center position and then back to at or near the bottom-dead-center position to complete the fastener driving cycle.

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.

An apparatus is selectively controlled to insert a check pin into a fastener hole in a workpiece surface and remove the check pin from the fastener hole. The apparatus is a pneumatically actuated apparatus having a pair of press actuators that are selectively operated to press the check pin attached to a check pin holder of the apparatus into a fastener hole in a workpiece, and a pair of remove actuators that are selectively operated to push against the workpiece surface and move the apparatus away from the workpiece surface to remove the check pin attached to the check pin holder from the fastener hole in the workpiece.

A driving tool including a timer assembly less susceptible to heat operates at a stable operating speed. The driving tool includes a trigger, a contact arm, and a timer assembly that operates in response to the trigger moving to a trigger-on-position with the contact arm remaining at an arm-off-position. The timer assembly includes a flywheel rotatable in response to the trigger moving to the trigger-on-position, and a contact restrictor movable between an unlock position at which the contact restrictor allows the contact arm to move to an arm-on-position and a lock position at which the contact restrictor restricts the contact arm from moving to the arm-on-position. The contact restrictor takes a predetermined period to move from the unlock position to the lock position in response to the trigger moving to the trigger-on-position. The predetermined period is defined by an inertial force generated by rotation of the flywheel.

A compressed air nailer comprises a control line configured to trigger a driving process when a valve pin is displaced relative to a valve sleeve into an actuated position. The valve sleeve is configured to move between a triggering position and a locked position. A switching surface is coupled to at least one of a trigger and a placing sensor and configured to actuate the valve pin. An outer sleeve is configured to guide the valve sleeve. The switching surface is positioned at a switching surface position relative to the outer sleeve when both the trigger and the placing sensor are actuated. The switching surface is configured to displace the valve pin into the actuated position when the valve sleeve is positioned in the triggering position. The switching surface does not displace the valve pin into the actuated position when the valve sleeve is positioned in the locked position.
