Abstract: The present disclosure concerns improvements for a gas-powered fixing tool, and particularly a combustion chamber or precombustion chamber for a gas-powered fixing tool, a working chamber for a gas-powered fixing tool, a fuel gas injection device for a gas-powered fixing tool and a gas-powered fixing tool including one or more of these elements.

Abstract: Various embodiments of the present disclosure provide a gas-powered fastener-driving tool. In one embodiment, the tool includes a combustion or precombustion chamber a valve comprising a body that is mobile within the combustion or precombustion chamber between a first closed position and a second open position. The body defines two opposing orifices at longitudinal ends of the body. The orifices form part of a bore defined through the body that enables gas to pass through the valve. This makes it possible to limit the pressure drops as gas is being admitted to or exhausted from the chamber, thus making it possible to optimize the duration of the firing cycle of the tool.

Abstract: Gas fixing tool, including at least one combustion chamber, a trigger, a device for injecting fuel into the at least one chamber, a member for actuating the device, and a bearing member intended to be brought to bear on a support material, characterized in that it further comprises a safety member configured to cooperate on the one hand with the actuating member and on the other hand with the trigger, so that the trigger is locked in its first position when the actuating member is in a first position.

Abstract: Various embodiments of the present disclosure provide a fuel cartridge for a gas-powered fastener-driving tool. In one embodiment, the fuel cartridge comprises a body that has a longitudinal axis and that defines an internal fuel storage cavity. The body is shaped and sized to be inserted at least partially into and removed from a housing defined by a case of the tool via translation along the longitudinal axis. The cartridge also includes a connection and fuel dispensing end fitting connected to the body and sized and shaped to engage an end fitting of the tool within the housing. The cartridge also includes a first cam surface extending at least partially around the longitudinal axis and configured to, during relative rotation of the first cam surface and a second cam surface, engage the second cam surface to facilitate removal of the fuel cartridge from the housing.

Abstract: A fixing tool including a nose for guiding of fixing elements and a striking plate for striking of the fixing elements, wherein the fixing tool is configured to fire a fixing element of a first type and a fixing element of a second type with dimensional and/or geometric characteristics which are different from those of the fixing element of the first type.

Abstract: The present disclosure concerns a method and an electronic ignition control device of a combustion chamber of a gas-powered fixing tool designed to optimize the quality of the shooting of fixation elements by the tool. According to the principle of the present disclosure, the triggering of the ignition of the chamber to produce the shot is commanded on the condition that the time between the moment when the user places the tool against a work surface and the moment when he pulls on an actuation trigger of the tool is greater than a predefined delay time, to ensure an optimal filling of the combustion chamber with the combustible gas. According to one embodiment of the present disclosure, the triggering of the ignition is enabled on the supplemental condition that a signal of medium ignition voltage is greater than a trigger threshold voltage.

Abstract: A combustion nailer includes a tool housing, and a combustion engine substantially located within the housing and including a valve sleeve reciprocating relative to a cylinder head for cyclically opening and closing a combustion chamber. A control system is associated with the housing and is connected to the combustion engine for providing for a designated open time for the combustion chamber after a combustion event and before a subsequent combustion can occur.

Abstract: The adapter comprises a central tubular body extending on one side with an abutment and fixing base on the cartridge and, on the other side, with two fixing legs on an intermediary nose piece of the transmission and filling member able to be hinged for ensuring the fixing operation, disconnecting and ejecting wings being additionally provided. The disconnecting and ejecting wings are arranged for opening the fixing legs before driving them into translation.

Abstract: A gas setting tool, wasting a limited amount of fuel. The tool comprises i) an internal combustion engine, with a device for injecting fuel in the chamber of the engine, comprising a check valve and an injection piston, the injection piston extending beyond the check valve, and iii) a sealing joint mounted on the injection piston of the check valve. The injection piston comprises an internal bore opened on the exterior and the check valve and its injection piston are arranged so that, in an opening position, the fuel in a container is able, outside the check valve, to only flow through the internal bore of the injection piston. Thanks to this invention, fuel waste is reduced to the best.

Abstract: The adapter is designed to receive an outlet end (23) of the cartridge (20) and an inlet end (32) of the induction device (30), as well as a seal (11) between the two ends (23, 32). The seal (11) includes an annular transverse portion (53) intended to be interposed between the two ends (23, 32) and the material of the seal (11) is selected from the group consisting of compressible and flexible materials.
