Patent number: 9855646Abstract: 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.Type: GrantFiled: July 31, 2014Date of Patent: January 2, 2018Assignee: FASCO S.R.L.Inventors: Marco Ronconi, Andrea Carati

Patent number: 9555529Abstract: A device for applying fasteners having one almost flat head having a central pass through hole, two opposed sides having protrusions approximately perpendicular to the head forming shoulders, has a first nail magazine for locking a fastener. A shooting device shoots a nail through the fastener central hole. A second magazine has a slide guide housing a set of fasteners, with tongues oriented in a forward sliding direction, the shoulders oriented towards an outlet. The outlet has jaws hinged to rotation pins, perpendicular to the sliding direction. Front portions of the jaws fully protrude from the second magazine, each jaw having teeth having a shoulder shape to match a shoulder shape of a fastener interposed between the jaws. The teeth elastically and detachably hold the fasteners in an aligned position with the pass through hole and with the shooting direction of the shooting device.Type: GrantFiled: November 18, 2013Date of Patent: January 31, 2017Assignee: FASCO S.R.L.Inventor: Marco Ronconi
