The present disclosure generally relates to quick change attachments for a pneumatic percussive tool. The attachments convert a pneumatic percussive tool, such as an air impact tool with proximal attachment means, which has a “pushing” force, into a pneumatic percussive tool having a “pulling” force. Once attached to the pneumatic percussive tool, the attachments also provide a quick change feature for allowing “pulling” tools to be simply and easily removed and replaced.

A pneumatic tool contains: a body, a drive unit, a piston element, at least one buffer, and a movable air tube. The body includes an intake head, a limiting sleeve, a switch, an air conduit, and a connection portion. The connection portion has a first guide element, a first guiding orifice, and the limiting sleeve has a shoulder. The drive unit includes a moving tube, a first segment, and a second segment. The moving tube has a protrusion, the second segment has a second guide element and a second guiding orifice. The moving tube has a coupling orifice and a cavity, and an air valve is defined between the cavity and the second guide element. One buffer is defined between the first guide element and the second guide element and includes a first through hole. The movable air tube includes an air inlet segment and an air outlet segment.

A pneumatic device with a quick release structure includes: a housing having a peripheral wall defining an accommodating space for accommodation of an output shaft, and the peripheral wall being provided with a first connecting portion; and a front cover having a second connecting portion which is detachably coupled to the first connecting portion. A user can directly open the front cover to take the needle holder out of the accommodating space, then remove the to-be-replaced rust removing needles and replace them with new ones, then put the needle holder back to the accommodating space, and fix the front cover back to the housing, thus the replacement of the rust removing needles is done. Hence, the replacement speed is fast, and no tools are required during the replacement operation, so that the operation of replacing the rust removing needles is simpler and more intuitive.

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 hydraulic, pneumatic, gasoline, diesel, or electric tool may include a spindle that is adapted for rotational movement. A swing arm may be coupled to the spindle such that rotational motion of the spindle is transferred to the swing arm. The swing arm makes contact with a piston such that the rotational motion causes the piston to move along a linear path. The piston may interact with an energy storage medium when the swing arm moves the piston in the first direction, causing energy to be stored in the energy storage medium. As the swing arm continues to rotate, the swing arm may lose contact with the piston, thus allowing the energy storage medium to urge the piston in a second direction opposite the first direction to strike an anvil. The swing arm may be a multiple roller swing arm. The energy storage medium may be a compound spring assembly.

A pneumatic hammer has a handle, a body, a valve seat, a cylinder device, an assembling device, and a chisel. The body is transversally connected to the handle and has a chamber. The valve seat is mounted in the chamber of the body and has a rear valve, a front valve, and a valve plate disposed between the rear valve and the front valve. The cylinder device is mounted in the chamber, abuts against the valve seat, and has a cylinder barrel and a hammer. The cylinder barrel is mounted in the chamber and has a cylinder chamber. The hammer is movably disposed in the cylinder chamber. The assembling device is connected to the cylinder device, and has a mounting jacket, an engaging element, multiple positioning elements, a spring, and an engaging ring. The chisel is detachably connected to the assembling device, and is inserted into the cylinder chamber.

A valve seat has a first valve plate and a second valve plate detachably connected to the first valve plate. The first valve plate has a first trough and at least one pair of first dents, each pair including two first dents capable of respectively forming two first passages with a housing of a pneumatic hammer. The second valve plate has a second trough, at least one pair of second dents, at least one inlet tunnel, and at least two inlet channels. The second trough faces to and communicates with the first trough. Each pair of second dents includes two second dents capable of respectively forming two second passages with the housing. Each inlet tunnel is formed through the second valve plate and communicates with the two second passages. The at least two inlet channels communicate with the second trough and the at least one inlet tunnel.

A multi-stroke powered safety hammer system includes a hammer having a body, a cylinder within the body, and a piston carried in the cylinder for reciprocal movement therein. The system includes a quick-connect coupling mount on the hammer, the mount having an inner barrel bounding a hollow interior, an outer sleeve for sliding movement over the inner barrel, and an engagement assembly defined by the inner barrel and the outer sleeve for locking an attachment in the interior. The system includes one of many attachments with an engagement portion; when the engagement portion is applied to the quick-connect coupling mount and the hammer is operated, the piston reciprocates to impact the engagement portion. The attachments guide fasteners, remove fasteners, and process materials.
