Definitions

  • the invention relates to a driving tool with fasteners according to the preamble of claims 1 and 8.
  • a driving tool for screws according to DE-19 23 712 A1 are the centering elements the centering device for the screws designed as holding jaws are pivotally arranged on a bearing body and for holding the screws Have contact surfaces that are perpendicular or inclined to the swivel plane.
  • Such centering devices are also used for driving tools for nails, pens, etc. known, which are generally referred to below as "fasteners”.
  • Driving tools with a centering element that makes the screw U-shaped encloses on three sides and is radially pivotable, are from the US 3 178 971 and DE 40 37 547 C1 known.
  • the centering elements can yield if a lateral force acts on the fastener. This means that the fastener when screwing in or driving in is not securely held and possibly at an angle into the workpiece penetrates. This is particularly disadvantageous when assembling furniture.
  • the object of the present invention is therefore to create a driving tool type mentioned with a centering device for the fasteners holds and guides them securely during the driving process.
  • the centering elements only move when e.g. for the screw the larger one compared to the shank Head pushes them apart or when using a nail driver Driving plunger pivoted the centering.
  • the invention can be used particularly advantageously in screwing devices which the motor housing with the motor-driven screw-in blade against Effect of a spring slidable against a bearing body for the Centering is arranged.
  • This bearing body can also be used as Be placed foot.
  • the contact surfaces are Centering elements with the contact surfaces projecting, essentially transverse to Provide driving ribs running when screwing into the Engage the thread of the screw.
  • the screw pulls the Bearing body against the spring between the bearing body and the motor housing, so that for the operator has no power to compress the spring.
  • the bearing body is fixed with the motor housing, e.g. connected to a cylinder-piston unit and only the impact ram moves against a foot.
  • the invention applies to both portable and stationary driving tools applicable.
  • the fastening means 2 has a shaft 7 and a head 8 larger diameter.
  • a centering device 9 serves to hold the fastening means 2 before and during the driving-in process. It consists of three identical centering elements 10, which are mounted on the bearing body 3 in a radially pivotable manner.
  • the bearing body 3 is provided with a retaining ring 11 which, as also shown in FIG. 2, has bearing blocks 12.
  • This Bearing blocks 12 are provided with threaded bores 13 into which bolts 14 are screwed, which have journal pins 15 for the centering elements 10 at their protruding end.
  • These centering elements 10 are pressed in the direction of the fastening means 2 by an elastic ring spring 16.
  • the centering element 10 extends from the journal 15 with a leg 17 in Driving direction, it has at its free end a perpendicular to the leg 17th arranged jaws 18 on. This is with one against that Fastening means 2 facing contact surface 19, which is perpendicular to the axis 20-20 of journal 15 runs.
  • the contact surface 19 thus extends parallel to the plane of movement of the centering element 10 and lateral, on the Fastening means 2 acting forces are absorbed by the centering element 10, without giving in. Only the enlarged head 8 of fastening means 2 causes the centering elements 10 to pivot.
  • a run-on slope 21 on the system jaws 18 serves as an introduction the pivoting movement of the centering element 10 through the head 8.
  • the System jaws 18 is also provided with an insertion bevel 22, which Insertion of the fastening means 2 between the contact jaws 18 is facilitated. (Fig.2)
  • the threaded bores 13 are for the screw bolts 14 arranged in the form of an equilateral triangle on the retaining ring 11.
  • the Bolt 14 have slots 23 so that they by means of a Screwdriver can be adjusted so that the centering 10th Different diameters of the shafts 7 perpendicular to their plane of movement of the fasteners 2 can be adjusted.
  • the Bearing body 24 is designed as a foot with which the driving tool on the Workpiece 5 can be placed.
  • a screw-in blade 6 is used for screwing in again of fasteners 2.
  • FIG. 5 to 7 show a further embodiment of the invention, wherein a Bearing body 29 displaceable against the action of a spring 30 on the motor housing 31 is stored.
  • a drivable connected to the motor housing 31 Screw-in blade 6 is used to screw in a first screw 32 'with which one Plasterboard 33 on an underlying workpiece 34 made of wood or steel to be attached.
  • the screw 32 ' is with further screws 32 in known manner attached to a connecting strap 35 made of plastic and leaves come loose from this connecting belt when screwing in.
  • Two centering elements 36 and 37 are provided for guiding the screws 32 ', which is pivotally mounted on the bearing body 29 against the action of leg springs 38 are, the pivot axes 39-39 and 40-40 perpendicular to each other.
  • the contact jaws 41 of the centering element 36 again have a to the pivot plane parallel contact surface 42 (see Fig. 7), on the contact jaws 43 of Centering element 37 are also contact surfaces parallel to its pivot plane 44 provided.
  • the contact jaws 43 have the Contact surfaces 44 projecting, essentially transversely to the driving direction extending ribs 45, which when screwing the screw 32 'in the Engage thread 46. This turns the rotating screw one Feed movement is forced, the bearing body 29 against Effect of the spring 30 is pulled against the motor housing 31 and being used change the head 47 of the screw 32 'after reaching the connecting belt 35 triggers from this.
  • the contact jaws 41 are provided with a pocket 50 into which Rest position of the jaws 43 engages.
  • the chamfer 48 from As seen in the screw-in direction, contact jaws 41 are in front of the bevel 49 of System jaws 43 arranged.
  • System jaws 41 are pivoted outwards by the screw head 47 and are there the jaws 43 free, which then also to the outside is pivoted.
  • the screw 32 'until the solid is reached Workpiece 34 made of wood or steel safely guided by the contact jaws 41 and 43.
