Abstract: The present invention teaches a unique drive mechanism for use in a hand held fastener driving tool. The driving mechanism comprises a pair of opposing cams coaxially positioned upon a common shaft. One of the cams is motor driven and rotatable about the common shaft but not axially translatable while the other cam is axially translatable but non-rotatable. Rotation of the rotatable cam by the motor causes the non-rotatable axially translatable cam to compress a compressible spring assembly, storing potential energy therein. Simultaneously, a driver activation cable, wrapped about the rotatable cam's periphery, unwraps thereby raising a fastener driver to its driving configuration. Upon release of the rotatable cam from the motor drive, the potential energy stored within the spring assembly causes reverse rotation of the rotatable cam thereby rewinding the drive cable about the rotatable cam's periphery and driving the fastener driver, whereby the driver drives a fastener into a workpiece.
