A cartridge magazine includes a carrier member () having a plurality of receptacles () for receiving propellant-containing cartridges (), longitudinal ribs provided on longitudinal sides of the recess () and limiting same; and a cover strip () for securing the cartridges in the receptacles and located in the recess () formed in a flat surface () of the carrier member () and extending in a longitudinal direction (L), for limiting the recess, and a cover strip () for securing the cartridges in the receptacles and located in the recess ().

Cartridge magazine

Apparatus for driving fastening elements (9), such as nails, bolts, screws, clips and alike, includes a magazine (3) extending laterally from a guide (1) from which the fastening elements are driven. A transport slide (4) is mounted on the magazine (3). A guide channel (31) in the magazine (3) opens into the guide (1) and is open at its opposite end located at a free end of the magazine. The transport slide (4) is movable along the magazine (3) towards its free end into a release position and in the release position can be fixed against movement toward the guide (1). In the release position, the transport slide (4) has a transport latch (41), and a retaining element (6) is positioned on the magazine (3), and both are displaced out of the clear opening in the guide channel (31).

Driving apparatus with magazine for fastening elements

Apparatus for driving fastening elements (9), such as nails, bolts, clips and the like, into a receiving material includes a magazine (3) extending laterally outwardly from a guide (1). The magazine (3) holds a carrying strip (10) for the fastening elements (9) and a transport slide (8) which, in cooperation with the magazine, can be shifted parallel to the driving direction of the apparatus. The magazine (3) has a housing (31) and a guide channel (37) opening into a transport channel (11) in the guide (1). The guide channel (37) is formed by two laterally spaced guide rails (5, 6) each with a surface facing the other and profiled with tooth-shaped projections having tooth flanks of different lengths with the flanks facing the transport channel (11) being shorter. A first guide rail (5) can be displaced away from a second guide rail (6) parallel to the length of the guide channel (37) by the transport slide (8). The transport slide (8) interacts with a control cam (53) located on the first guide rail (5). Both the first and second guide rails (5, 6) can be shifted laterally against the force of a spring (7).
