Patent number: 8479963Abstract: The nailing machine (1) comprises an air passage (510) allowing communication between a cylinder (200) and a return air chamber (500) in which compressed air for returning a piston (300) to the initial position is accumulated. The air passage (510) is provided with a control valve (520) controlling entry of compressed air into the return air chamber (500) from the cylinder (200). The control valve (520) opens the air passage 510 and allows entry of compressed air into the return air chamber (500) in the case wherein the nailed object produces a small reaction force upon driving the nail, namely when the upward moving distance of the body (100) relative to the push lever (700) is smaller than a predetermined distance. The compressed air that has entered the return air chamber (500) further enters a below-the-piston chamber and serves as air damper, reducing excess energy absorbed by a piston bumper (360).Type: GrantFiled: October 13, 2009Date of Patent: July 9, 2013Assignee: Hitachi Koki Co., Ltd.Inventors: Hiroki Kitagawa, Masashi Nishida, Tetsuhito Shige, Kousuke Akutsu, Masaya Nagao, Shouichi Hirai
