Embodiment Construction

[0027] Referring to FIG. 1 , an interchangeable magazine, generally indicated at 10 , is designed for a tool, generally indicated at 12 , which drives a fastener 14 into a workpiece 16 . This type of tool 12 can use many different types of fasteners 14, each of which is suitable. Conventional nails 14 of various lengths can be used, as can clamping nails and PositivePlacement nails designed to be used with bolts and penetrate metal frames. The term "nails" hereinafter refers to those fasteners 14 that are driven by the tool and not to other fasteners that are part of the tool itself. The use of the term "nail" is not intended to limit the selection of fasteners 14 that may be used in the tool 12 . When the fasteners 14 are loaded into the bins 10, all the fasteners in each bin are on equal footing.

[0028] The magazine 20 shown in FIG. 1 includes a shear block 20 and a magazine housing 22 . Preferably, the cutout 20 and the tank shell 22 are constructed separately, however...

Abstract

The present invention provides a tool for driving a fastener from a detachable magazine. The tool includes a tool housing having a proximal end and a distal end and a power source enclosed by the housing. A nosepiece is attached to the housing and has a channel and a first alignment structure. The magazine is removably attached to the tool and has a magazine housing and a shear block that is mounted to the proximal end of the magazine housing. There is a second alignment structure and a face on the shear block such that the channel and the face form a barrel when the first alignment structure is engaged with the second alignment structure and the magazine is removably attached to the tool. Upon firing of the tool, the fastener is propelled by the power source, through the barrel and into the workpiece.

Description

technical field [0001] This invention relates to portable combustion power fastener driving tools and, more particularly, to an interchangeable magazine for such power tools. Background technique [0002] Portable combustion power tools for driving fasteners into workpieces are described in commonly assigned patents to Nikolich, U.S. Patent Nos. Re. 32,452; 4,403,722; 4,483,473; 4,483,474; Incorporated by reference. Commonly assigned US Patent No. 6,016,622, which is also incorporated herein by reference, discloses such combustion powered tools specifically designed for decorative applications. A similar combustion powered nail and staple driving tool is commercially available under the IMPULSE trade mark from ITW-Paslode. [0003] Such tools include a generally gun-shaped tool housing enclosing a small internal combustion engine. The engine generates power through a metal tank containing compressed gas, also called a fuel tank. A battery-driven electronic power distribu...
