  • Patent number: 10589408
    Abstract: A nailer device for collated nails (S) can be loaded with an elongated strip (E) almost flat shaped and provided with at least a plurality of first connections (P) projecting therefrom and each provided with a fixing end (F) opposite to the elongated strip (E) and assigned to the removable fixing of a respective nail (N) of collated nails. The device (1) includes a sliding seat (9) aligned with a magazine (3) and in communication with a shot chamber (5) that receives the elongated strip (E). Thrusting means (13) is provided with a matching means (15) assigned to match with the fixing end (F) of the first connection (P) previously bearing a fired nail in a stroke of the thrusting means from an external extreme condition to an extreme internal condition to align the first connection (P) of such fixing end (F) to a portion of the sliding seat.

  • Patent number: 9855646
    Abstract: A safety device for a nailer has a movable element movable between a locking condition and a release firing condition. At least one lock has a stopping end movable to engage an abutment fixed to or carried by the movable element, for stopping it in the locking condition. When disengaged, the stopping end allows translation to the release position. The lock is also provided with an elastic element which acts in the direction of the stopping condition, with an arming mechanism acting counter to the elastic element, for shifting the lock and the respective stopping end for moving to the armed condition. An operator, to put the nailer in the armed and released conditions, must act on the arming mechanism to free the abutment from the stopping end, and he must place the movable element in the release condition to shoot the nail by pulling a trigger.
