  • Publication number: 20150097015
    Abstract: A nail gun includes a body, a valve unit, a nail striking member and a detector. The body has a nail path, an air chamber, and an intake chamber guiding flow of air into the air chamber. The nail striking member is drivable by air pressure in the air chamber for striking a nail in the nail path. The valve unit is operable to switch between unblocking and blocking states to respectively permit and prevent fluid communication between the intake chamber and the air chamber. The detector is connected pivotally to the body, and is contactable with the valve unit such that, when there is no nail in the nail path, the valve unit is controlled by the detector to be in the blocking state.

  • Publication number: 20150097133
    Abstract: An air source controlling device for a pneumatic nail-gun includes a body, a choke valve and a switch. The body includes a controlling chamber for connecting a compressed air source, an air passage for communicating the controlling chamber and the pneumatic nail-gun, a switch channel communicating the air passage and an accommodation space, and an air vent hole communicating the accommodation space and an external environment. The choke valve is disposed in the controlling chamber and is switchable between a communicating status and a non-communicating status for controlling the opening or closing between the controlling chamber and the air passage. The switch includes an actuating member slidably disposed in the switch channel and the accommodation space without covering the air vent hole. A sealing member is disposed on the actuating member and is sealed with the switch channel. The actuating member activates the choke valve.

  • Publication number: 20150060514
    Abstract: A firing-operation totalizing device for a gas nail gun includes two pressure areas, a pressure feedback unit mounted in a body, and an electric control unit. The pressure areas are constituted by an interior of a combustion chamber and an interior of a cylinder body. The pressure feedback unit outputs a pressure signal in response to each pressure change of at least one of the pressure areas. The electric control unit includes a control circuit that totalizes the number of the firing operations based on the pressure signals received thereby. As such, the totalized number of the firing operations is increased only when a pressure change of the at least one of the pressure areas occurs due to an explosion to totalize accurately the number of effective firing operations.

  • Publication number: 20150041517
    Abstract: In a fastener feeding device for a driving tool, in response to a rearward displacement of a contact arm, a carrier member is displaced from an upper position to a lower position, and a claw end of a claw member is dragged downward. Once a first one of fasteners is struck out of a striking path, a connection strip for holding the fasteners is lifted by a biasing force of a return biasing member while the carrier member is displaced from the lower position to the upper position.

  • Publication number: 20150014012
    Abstract: An oscillation reducing suspension device for a fan motor of a combustion-powered tool includes a holding web member sleeved on the fan motor, upper and lower retaining members disposed to secure the holding web member on the fan motor, upper and lower damping units which are respectively brought into abutting engagement with upper and lower surfaces of the holding web member, and an upward-movement restricting member securely mounted on an upper major surface of a cylinder head. Due to engagement between the restricting member and the upper damping unit, the upper and lower damping units can absorb impact resulting from oscillating movement of the fan motor.

  • Publication number: 20140367441
    Abstract: In a combustion-type power tool, when a safety unit is pressed against a workpiece to cause a valve sleeve to close a combustion chamber, a power region of a lever is actuated to permit a weight region of the lever to displace a holding member holding a fuel canister from a normal position to a pressed position. When the holding member is in the pressed position, a valve stem of the fuel canister is forced into pressing engagement with an intake port of a fuel canister actuation unit to permit delivery of a measured dose of fuel to the combustion chamber through the intake port.
