Abstract: A fastening tool applies parts, in particular plastic parts, to objects. The plastic parts are supplied in the form of a belt in which the plastic parts are linked together by at least one flexible web. The fastening tool transports the belt by a feed mechanism such that one plastic part at a time is delivered to a fastening position. The feed mechanism has a fluid drive that is coupled by a translation-rotation converter to a transport gear rotatably mounted on the fastening tool and designed to positively or nonpositively engage the belt in order to transport it. The translation-rotation converter has an overrunning clutch whose driving gear is kinematically coupled to the fluid drive and whose driven gear is coupled to the transport gear in a rotationally fixed manner.

Abstract: Disclosed is a fastening tool (10) for applying parts (12), in particular plastic parts (12), to objects (14), wherein the plastic parts (12) are supplied in the form of a belt (20) in which the plastic parts (12) are linked together by means of at least one flexible web (22, 24), wherein the fastening tool (10) is designed to transport the belt (20) by means of a feed mechanism (62) such that one plastic part (12) at a time is delivered to a fastening position (18), and wherein the feed mechanism (62) has a fluid drive (64) that is coupled by a translation-rotation converter (68, 70, 72) to a transport gear (84) that is rotatably mounted on the fastening tool (10) and is designed to positively or nonpositively engage the belt (20) in order to transport it.
