Abstract: A driving tool includes a driver configured to drive out a fastener, a piston to which the driver is connected, a cylinder in which the piston is disposed so as to be reciprocated, a head valve which is slidably mounted and controls flow of compressed air into the cylinder, and a foreign matter removing member provided with a protruding portion facing a circumferential surface of the head valve. When the head valve slides to move relatively with respect to the foreign matter removing member, a matter attached on the circumferential surface of the head valve can be removed by the protruding portion.

Abstract: A bumper of a driving tool has a cylindrical overall shape and also has a space portion expanding downward therein. The bumper is provided with an upper portion, an intermediate portion, and a lower portion. A normal inclined-surface, in which an outer diameter becomes larger from an upper end of a full height of the bumper toward a slightly upper position of the intermediate portion, is formed at a periphery of the upper portion. A bulging-out portion haying the largest outer diameter in the bumper is bulged out, at a periphery of the intermediate portion. A reverse inclined-surface, in which the outer diameter becomes smaller toward downward, is formed at the periphery of the lower portion.

Abstract: A power tool includes a striking cylinder, a striking piston slidably housed in the striking cylinder, a driver coupled to a bottom surface of the striking piston, and a cushioning mechanism configured to absorb an impact of striking a fastener with the driver when the striking piston is driven. The cushioning mechanism includes a housing formed below the striking cylinder, and a bumper housed in the housing to receive the bottom surface of the striking piston. The bumper is formed in a tubular shape, a wall thickness of a central section of the bumper is greater than wall thicknesses of an upper section and a lower section of the bumper, and the wall thicknesses of the upper section and the lower section are substantially the same.
