Patent number: 7427007Abstract: A combustion-powered nail gun drives nails into a workpiece when both a head switch and a trigger switch are turned ON while a safety switch is turned ON. The nail driving operation cannot be performed if the safety switch is not ON even if both the head switch and the trigger switch are ON. The head switch is turned ON when a push lever is urged against the workpiece. Fuel/air mixture in a combustion chamber is ignited when the head switch and the trigger switch are turned ON irrespective of an order in which the head switch and the trigger switch are turned ON, whereby “successive-shot driving” can be performed in which the trigger switch is maintained in its ON position while successively driving a plurality of nails at different locations of the workpiece by repeatedly pushing and releasing the push lever toward and away from the workpiece.Type: GrantFiled: August 22, 2006Date of Patent: September 23, 2008Assignee: Hitachi Koki Co., Ltd.Inventors: Yukihiro Shima, Yasuki Ohmori

Patent number: 7305940Abstract: In the combustion-type power tool, a first shelter wall and a second shelter wall are disposed to partially surround an area between an ignition plug and an ignition ground. Two gaps are provided between the first and second shelter walls. The first shelter wall extends radially outwardly from an outer peripheral surface of a motor boss, and also protrudes from an end face in an axial direction of a fan shaft. The first shelter wall has a lower end surface inclined such that an axial length between the end face and the lower end surface is gradually reduced toward radially outer end of the first shelter wall.Type: GrantFiled: February 17, 2006Date of Patent: December 11, 2007Assignee: Hitachi Koki Co., Ltd.Inventors: Tomomasa Nishikawa, Yasuki Ohmori, Shinki Ohtsu, Kunio Yamamoto, Yoshitaka Akiba, Haruhisa Fujisawa

Patent number: 7194988Abstract: A combustion-type power tool includes a cylinder and a combustion chamber disposed on top of the cylinder that accommodates a gaseous mixture of existing air in the combustion chamber and fuel injected therein. A spark plug generates a spark to combust the gaseous mixture in the combustion chamber. A trigger switch produces the spark in the spark plug when operated. A piston is movably supported in the cylinder and driven by combustion in the combustion chamber. A driving blade is integrally formed with the piston for driving a fastener. A push lever is provided at one end of the housing and coupled with the combustion chamber frame. A temperature sensor is provided, for example, on the combustion chamber frame to sense the temperature thereof. A stopper is operated to adjust the position of the push lever to be shifted from an initial position when the sensed temperature is higher than a critical value.Type: GrantFiled: November 16, 2005Date of Patent: March 27, 2007Assignee: Hitachi Koki Co., Ltd.Inventors: Yasuki Ohmori, Shinki Ohtsu
