Fastener driving tool
A fastener driving tool includes: a driver blade which is driven by compressed air so as to move in a vertical direction for striking a fastener such as a nail, an injection hole which guides said driver blade and forms a passage for the compressed air to be exhausted along with the movement of the driver blade, and a magazine for supplying the fastener to said injection hole, wherein an exhaust passage through which an interior of the injection hole is communicated with the atmosphere is provided between a lower end of the driver blade when the driver blade is positioned at a top dead center and a head part of the fastener which has been supplied into the injection hole.
1. A fastener driving tool comprising:
a driver blade which is driven by compressed air so as to move in a vertical direction between top dead center and bottom dead center for striking a fastener,
an injection hole which guides said driver blade and forms a passage for the compressed air to be exhausted along with a movement of the driver blade,
a magazine for supplying the fastener to said injection hole,
an exhaust passage through which an interior of the injection hole is communicated with an atmosphere, said exhaust passage being located between a lower end of the driver blade when the driver blade is positioned at a top dead center and a head part of the fastener which has been supplied into the injection hole, and
a cover for covering said exhaust passage provided at a position opposed to a side of the exhaust passage communicated with the atmosphere, keeping a gap with respect to the exhaust passage.
2. A fastener driving tool comprising:
a driver blade which is driven by compressed air so as to move in a vertical direction between a top dead center and a bottom dead center for striking a fastener;
a nose portion having an injection hole extending vertically to guide the driver blade and to form a passage for the compressed air to be exhausted along with a movement of the driver blade, said nose portion having a protrusion projecting into the injection hole to contact a head part of a leading fastener which is supplied into the injection hole, and
a magazine for supplying the fastener to said injection hole,
wherein said nose portion is provided with an exhaust passage through which an interior of the injection hole is communicated with an atmosphere, said exhaust passage being located at a position adjacent to the protrusion and between a lower end of the driver blade when the driver blade is at the top dead center and the head part of the leading fastener to exhaust the compressed air which is injected into the injection hole,
wherein a cover for covering said exhaust passage is provided at a position opposed to a side of the exhaust passage communicated with the atmosphere, keeping a gap with respect to the exhaust passage.
3. A fastener driving tool as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the compressed air to be exhausted along with movement of the driver blade will enter the injection hole, and will be discharged through the exhaust passage before the fastener is pushed downward, thereby preventing an unexpected drop of the fastener from the injection hole even when a holding force of the fastener has weakened.
4. A fastener driving tool as defined in claim 2 , which further comprises:
a housing;
a cylinder disposed in the housing;
and a piston slidably disposed in the housing;
and wherein the driver blade is connected with the pistons.
5. A fastener driving tool as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the fastener is held by contacting the head of the fastener with said protrusion which projects into the injection hole, by contacting a leg of the fastener with the interior of the injection hole, and by contacting a shaft of the fastener with a feeder for the fastener.
