A fastener tool includes a motor, a drive mechanism connected to the motor and adapted to drive a piston, and a cylinder filled with compressed gas. The piston is accommodated in the cylinder and suitable for a reciprocating motion within the cylinder. The drive mechanism includes a blade fixed to the piston, and a gear coupled to the motor. The gear contains a plurality of teeth adapted to engage with a plurality of lugs on the blade such that a rotation of the gear is transformed to a linear movement of the blade. The drive mechanism further includes a disengagement module which within a period of a rotation cycle of the gear, is configured to prevent one of the plurality of teeth from unintentionally engaging with a misaligned one of the lugs.

Nailers with jamming-alleviating mechanisms

A method of detecting a workpiece jam condition in a pneumatic tool includes striking a workpiece by a blade of the tool, detecting whether a piston to which the blade is attached reaches a predetermined position within a predetermined time, and determining a workpiece jam condition has occurred if the piston does not reach the predetermined position within the predetermined time.

Method of detecting a workpiece jam condition in a fastener tool

A fastener tool includes a motor, a drive mechanism connected to the motor and adapted to drive a piston, and a cylinder filled with high-pressure gas. The piston is accommodated in the cylinder and suitable for a reciprocating motion within the cylinder. The drive mechanism includes a blade fixed to the piston and a gear coupled to the motor. The gear contains a plurality of teeth adapted to engage with a plurality of lugs on the blade such that a rotation of the gear is transformed to a linear movement of the blade. The drive mechanism further includes a disengagement module which, within a period of a rotation cycle of the gear, is configured to prevent one of the plurality of teeth from unintentionally engaging with a misaligned one of the lugs.

A pneumatic tool is provided comprising: a motor; a drive mechanism connected to the motor; a cylinder; the drive mechanism comprising a drive bar connected to a piston, the drive bar adapted to drive the piston in a linear direction; the cylinder filled with high pressure gas; wherein the piston is housed in the cylinder and adapted to reciprocate within the cylinder; the piston is connected to a striking member adapted to strike a workpiece; wherein the drive mechanism further comprises a plurality of latching members adapted to be in contact with and lock the drive bar. The latching structure provided by the present invention has a smaller sliding distance and is safer than conventional drive bar latching structures.
