Abstract: A powered fastener driver includes a housing, a nosepiece, a driver blade movable within the nosepiece between a ready position and a driven position, a piston coupled to the driver blade, a driver cylinder within which the piston is movable, a storage chamber cylinder containing pressurized gas therein and in fluid communication with the driver cylinder, a lifting mechanism for moving the driver blade to the ready position, and a motor coupled to the lifting mechanism to drive the lifting mechanism. An onboard air compressor is driven by the motor and is driven while the lifting mechanism is driven. A feed system is in fluid communication with the onboard air compressor and includes a primary feed mechanism adjacent the nosepiece and a secondary feed mechanism adjacent the nosepiece. The primary feed mechanism and the secondary feed mechanism are actuated by compressed air received from the onboard air compressor.

Abstract: A powered fastener driver includes a housing, a nosepiece extending from the housing, a driver blade movable within the nosepiece between a top-dead-center (TDC) position and a bottom-dead-center (BDC) position, a piston coupled to the driver blade for movement therewith, a driver cylinder within which the piston is movable and in fluid communication with a pressurized gas acting on the piston, a magazine coupled to the nosepiece in which collated fasteners are receivable, a fastener delivery mechanism for loading individual fasteners into the nosepiece from the magazine, and a lifter assembly including a lifter housing, a drive shaft rotatably disposed within the lifter housing, a lifter sprocket disposed on the drive shaft for moving the driver blade from the BDC position toward the TDC position, and a cam rotatable in response to rotation of the drive shaft for actuating the fastener delivery mechanism.

Abstract: A baby stroller for transporting an infant over flat, rough, or uneven terrain at speeds faster than normal walking speed is disclosed. This baby stroller can be folded to make it easier to stow and transport. The folding mechanism, a unique feature of the design, enables the user to fold and unfold the stroller with one hand. Other features of the stroller include a quick release mechanism for the rear wheels, a foot-activated parking brake, and a canopy deployment mechanism.

Abstract: A portable headlamp that is particularly designed for use with bicycles integrates a number of essential features and functions desired by modem bicyclists. The headlamp has an easily removable and universally mountable fastening system that requires no tools to install. The mounting system includes a rotary joint that enables a headlamp to be pointed in any desired direction while maintaining a constant friction that can be set by the user. A focussable light beam enables the operator to vary the light distribution pattern, thereby making the headlamp suitable for use under a number of different conditions. The electrical system for the headlamp can be readily upgraded to accommodate the needs of different riding conditions, without requiring additional parts.
