  • Publication number: 20030222116
    Abstract: A nail guiding mechanism of nailing gun composed of a gun body, a nail magazine and the nail guiding mechanism. The nail guiding mechanism includes a bottom board, a middle board and a top board. The bottom board is connected between the gun body and the nail magazine. The middle board is locked on the top face of the bottom board. The middle board is formed with multiple connecting holes for multiple locating members to fit therein. The locating members protrude from the top face of the middle board. The top board is mounted on the top face of the middle board. The top board is formed with multiple locating holes respectively corresponding to the locating members. The locating members are respectively passed through the locating holes to protrude from the top board. A press shank and a latch ring are pivotally disposed on the top board. When pressing down the press shank, the latch ring is tightly latched with the locating members to fixedly connect the top board with the middle board.

  • Patent number: 6654233
    Abstract: A positioning unit is mounted on an electronic device and includes a catch member and a locking member. The catch member defines a gap which has a width that is reducible when the catch member moves from a non-catching position to a catching position and that is expandable when the catch member moves from the catching position to the non-catching position. The locking member has an engaging end extending into the gap. The locking member is operable to move the catch member from the non-catching position to the catching position and from the catching position to an urging position. The engaging end of the locking member engages the catch member when the width of the gap is reduced upon movement of the catch member to the catching position. The engaging end of the locking member disengages from the catch member when the width of the gap is enlarged upon movement of the catch member to the non-catching position.
