  • Adjustable-length end piece for a fastener drive tool
    Patent number: 6585141
    Abstract: An adjustable end piece engagable with a drive tool and configured to deliver fasteners from the drive tool to a work piece. Assembly of the adjustable end piece can be varied by varying the assembly of the end piece components and thus varying the length of the end piece. The variation in the length of the end piece allows the end piece to accommodate fasteners of varying lengths.

  • Rivet feed slider
    Patent number: 6575347
    Abstract: A rivet feed slider configured to sequentially receive rivets from a rivet delivery path and feed the rivets to a rivet transport tube using an air supply. The rivet feed slider includes a rivet receiving chamber which is configured to sequentially receive the rivets, and an aperture is in communication with the rivet receiving chamber. The aperture allows air to flow from the air supply through the rivet receiving chamber to the rivet transport tube such that a rivet which is disposed in the rivet receiving chamber is moved into the rivet transport tube. The rivet feed slider also includes additional apertures which allow air to flow from the air supply to the rivet transport tube when the rivet receiving chamber is not aligned with the air supply. Hence, the air flow from the air supply to the rivet transport tube is not substantially disrupted.
