A powered fastener driver includes a housing defining cylinder support portion, a drive unit support portion, and a handle portion that is spaced apart from the drive unit support portion. The handle portion defines a handle axis. A piston is movable within a cylinder from a TDC position to a driven or BDC position. A driver blade is attached to the piston for movement therewith along a driving axis from the TDC position toward the BDC position for driving a fastener into a workpiece. A lifter is operable to move the piston and driver blade, in unison, from the BDC position toward the TDC position. A drive unit is supported by the drive unit support portion and operably coupled to the lifter. The drive unit includes a motor having first output shaft that extends along a motor axis. The motor is positioned below the handle. The handle axis and the motor axis intersect the driving axis.

Powered fastener driver

A powered fastener driver including a housing defining a cylinder support portion, a drive unit support portion, and a handle portion that is spaced apart from the drive unit support portion. The powered fastener driver includes a cylinder, a piston movable within the cylinder from a top-dead-center (TDC) position to a bottom-dead-center (BDC) position, a driver blade attached to the piston for movement therewith along a driving axis from the TDC position toward the BDC position, a lifter operable to move the piston and driver blade, in unison, from the BDC position toward the TDC position, and a drive unit supported by the drive unit support portion and operably coupled to the lifter. The powered fastener driver further includes a user interface supported by the housing, and a printed circuit board positioned within the housing and positioned between the drive unit support portion and the handle portion.

A powered fastener driver includes a housing, a nosepiece extending from the housing, a driver blade movable within the nosepiece between a ready position and a driven position the driver blade comprising a plurality of drive teeth on a first side of the driver blade and a plurality of locking projections on a second side of the driver blade, a piston coupled to the driver blade for movement therewith, 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 first end of the driver cylinder being affixed to a corresponding first end of the storage chamber cylinder, and a latch actuator assembly adjacent the driver blade, wherein the latch actuator assembly includes a latch to engage one of the plurality of locking projections to prevent the driver blade from moving toward the driven position.
