Disclosed is a system, method and apparatus operating on a high-pressure working fluid with high efficiency. The device has a reservoir of high-pressure working fluid. A fluid connection supplies the high-pressure working fluid at a controlled working pressure to a dose chamber to contain a volume of the high-pressure working fluid. A dose valve, biased to close, and able to be triggered open, is present between the dose chamber and a working chamber. A charge of the high pressure working fluid can be released from the dose chamber via the dose valve at a first end of the working chamber, to undergo a first expansion in the working chamber and do work therein to or towards a second end of the working chamber distal from the first end. The dose valve closes again before a pressure front of the charge in the working chamber has travelled less than or equal to halfway between the first end and the second end. This allows a second expansion of the charge to continue doing work. When the work is complete, the working chamber pressure is less than or equal to half the working pressure.

A fastener driver includes an outer cylinder having a cylindrical first end and an opposite, second end, an inner cylinder positioned within the outer cylinder, a moveable piston positioned within the inner cylinder, and a driver blade attached to the piston and movable therewith between a top-dead-center position and a bottom-dead-center position along a drive axis. The outer cylinder defining a longitudinal axis and a storage chamber configured to be filled with pressurized gas. The inner cylinder being in communication with the pressurized gas within the storage chamber. A frame has first end adjacent the cylindrical first end of the outer cylinder and a second end extending outward from the cylindrical first end of the outer cylinder in the direction of the longitudinal axis. The frame is integrally formed with the outer cylinder as a single piece and a nosepiece supported by the frame.

Disclosed is a pneumatic nailing gun with an adjustable nailing force, which solves the technical problem that a nailing force adjusting precision of an existing pneumatic nailing gun cannot be kept for a long time. The pneumatic nailing gun comprises a housing and a striking pin, a first cylinder and a second cylinder are further arranged in the housing, and the first air chamber and the second air chamber are communicated with each other through a fully-closed ventilation channel, so that the first air chamber, the ventilation channel and the second air chamber form a pneumatic structure closed relative to the outside, and an air hole capable of keeping the pneumatic structure in communication with the outside is arranged in the pneumatic structure, and a handle capable of adjusting a ventilation capacity between the air hole and the outside is arranged on the housing.

Disclosed is a device including an exhaust valve, that operates on a pressurised working fluid. The device includes a working chamber, defined at least in part by a side wall, which working chamber can hold a workload to or toward a first end thereof, the working chamber to receive the working fluid to act on a rear surface of the workload to propel the workload to or towards a second end, opposite the first, of the working chamber. The device also includes a return chamber to receive fluid under pressure from a front surface of the workload, the pressure developed at least in part by the movement of the workload towards the second end. Present also is an exhaust valve fluidly connected to the return chamber, the exhaust valve normally biased closed preventing working fluid from exiting the working chamber, but on receipt of, and action by, the fluid under pressure from the return chamber, will open to allow the working fluid to exhaust the working chamber to a lower pressure location, the working fluid exhausting via the side wall of the working chamber through to the exhaust valve. Provided then is a device that will remove or reduce pressure building on the rear surface of the workload when moved from the second end to the first end.

An actuation trigger for a device, comprising or including, A dose chamber to hold a charge of high pressure working fluid, received from a high pressure source, A dose valve, biased closed to seal the dose chamber off from a working chamber, and hold the charge in the dose chamber, A hammer operated by a piston with a driven chamber on a first side of the piston, and a trigger chamber on a second side of the piston, sealed from the first side, the driven chamber receiving high pressure working fluid directly or indirectly from the high pressure source, A trigger valve to selectively supply high pressure working fluid to the trigger chamber, or to release high pressure working fluid from the trigger chamber, Such that when the hammer has high pressure working fluid in both the driven chamber and the trigger chamber it is held by a force imbalance in a first position, and when the high pressure working fluid is released from the trigger chamber, the hammer is driven to, or towards a second position towards the trigger chamber, The hammer, when driven to, or towards the second position strikes the dose valve, unseating the dose valve to unseal the dose chamber and the working chamber thus allowing the charge to enter the working chamber to do work therein.
