Pneumatic tool
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.
POWERED FASTENER DRIVER
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.
DRIVER
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.
Driving tool
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.
Compressed air nailer with safety valve arrangement
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.
FASTENER TOOL WITH LOCKING MECHANISM
A fastener tool which contains a motor, a drive mechanism connected to the motor and adapted to drive a piston, and a locking module. The locking module includes a rotating member coupled with the drive mechanism and adapted to rotate with a spindle and define a rotation axis; and a receiving member adapted to engage with the rotating member at and engaging portion. The rotating member includes a latch and a biasing member, wherein the biasing member moveably supports the latch in a direction substantially perpendicular to the rotation axis. Therefore, the locking module provides a locking mechanism that prevents back driving of the fastener tool that increases the lifespan and efficiency of the tool.
PISTON SEAL FOR POWERED FASTENER DRIVER
A powered fastener driver includes a housing, a cylinder supported by the housing, and a moveable piston positioned within and moveable along a driving axis of the cylinder. The piston includes a circumferential groove on an outer peripheral surface thereof. A driver blade is attached to the piston and moveable therewith between a top-dead-center (TDC) position and a driven or bottom-dead-center (BDC) position. A seal assembly is received in the circumferential groove. The seal assembly is configured to create a seal between the piston and the cylinder. The seal assembly includes a biasing member and a seal member positioned radially outwardly of the biasing member relative to the driving axis.
Control and protection mechanism and nail gun having same
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.
AIR-PATH STRUCTURE OF PNEUMATIC NAIL GUN
An air-path structure of pneumatic a nail gun, formed inside a gun body containing high-pressure air, comprises a main air chamber, a firing valve air chamber and a time-delayed air chamber that continuously releases the high-pressure air to the atmosphere. The gun body is configured with a trigger valve and a slider valve. The inside of the trigger valve is formed with a safety-on air chamber and a safety-off air chamber. The trigger valve controls the high-pressure air inside the firing valve air chamber to be discharged to the atmosphere. The slider valve controls the high-pressure air inside the main air chamber flowing toward the firing valve air chamber, the time-delayed air chamber and the safety-off air chamber. Specifically, the safety-on air chamber is constantly communicated with the main air chamber and constantly contains high-pressure air, and the slider valve can control the high-pressure air inside the safety-off air chamber flowing into the time-delayed air chamber. In this way, the invention can improve the operating safety of conventional pneumatic nail guns.
NAIL GUN NOZZLE MECHANISM AND NAIL GUN HAVING THE SAME
A nail gun nozzle mechanism includes a clamping wall, a retaining wall, and a switch unit. The clamping wall defines a firing space. The retaining wall defines a withdrawn space that is in spatial communication with the firing space. The switch unit includes a linkage member, and a bracket member. The bracket member is movable relative to the clamping wall between a firing position, where the bracket member is distal from the clamping wall and is disposed in the withdrawn space, and a non-firing position, where the bracket member is proximate to the clamping wall and blocking at least a portion of the firing space. The linkage member resiliently biases the bracket member toward the non-firing position.
