Abstract
A fastener driving apparatus includes a gas spring piston, a first drive shaft, a second drive shaft, a drive mechanism operatively coupled to the first drive shaft and the second drive shaft, an actuator fixedly coupled to the drive mechanism, and an anvil moveable between a first position and a second position. During an operational cycle of the fastener driving apparatus, the first drive shaft and the second drive shaft may drive the drive mechanism causing the actuator to engage to the anvil when the anvil is at the first position, to move the anvil from the first position to the second position and compress the gas spring piston to generate potential energy, and to disengage from the anvil when the anvil is at the second position causing the gas spring piston to release the potential energy and accelerate the anvil to drive a fastener.
