Definitions

  • a device for driving in nails is e.g. from the EP-A-321 440 is known.
  • a nailing device is shown here at which strikes a body over a joint with a magazine, nail guide, Drive management unit is connected.
  • a hammer head of the Impact body is a the nails from the magazine, nail guide, Drive guide unit when a pressure force is applied to the impact body discharge driver pivoted.
  • the magazine, nail guide, Drive guide unit has a cylindrical drum magazine on, from which the nails with the help of a feed claw in the direction of the driver can be moved, the feed either via a gear or lever system or a spring lever system.
  • To push apart the impact body and the unit in one Rest position is one between these two parts under tension introduced spring provided.
  • Such a nail magazine contains up to 140 parallel aligned nails through a wire attached to the nail shafts e.g. is welded together. Through the The nail tape obtained in this way allows the wire to be deformed a coil, in what form it in an appropriate nailing device is used. Passed in previous embodiments the connecting wires made of soft unalloyed metals, the perfect coiling and welding of the wire-nail connection allow. Processing of this embodiment with a Nailing device is difficult or not possible at all as it is caused by the Stroke movement leads to a compression of the nail spacing. Furthermore, lay the nails around the center of the magazine.
  • the object of the present invention is to overcome the disadvantages mentioned above to eliminate.
  • the task is solved in that the shaft with the hammer head is firmly connected or in one piece and through a recess in the link lever protrudes, the area between the Limitation of this recess and the shaft or the shaft rotatably surrounding socket is filled with rubber against its elastic Force the link lever is pivoted during the nailing process.
  • This resilient rubber dampens the impact of the impact movement Forces on the link bearing, making it a much smaller one Wear of this bearing comes as it does with devices of the state technology is the case.
  • the rubber creates a restoring force for the withdrawn during the stroke movement Feed body and thus takes over a safe Position the next nail in the blow channel.
  • the shaft is preferably triangular in cross section and bypass a star-shaped socket.
  • the star-shaped Socket is non-rotatable in relation to the triangular shaft and also results in a durable, non-rotatable connection between the rubber and its outer surface.
  • recess penetrated by the shaft in the link lever of surrounded an annular approach preferably with the link lever is in one piece, and the rubber is enough even in the annular approach.
  • the ring-shaped approach increases the connection area between the link lever and rubber so that this connection is more durable.
  • the link lever has on its facing away from the feed body End a ramp surface that when pressed the nailing device by pivoting the link lever slides on a stop pin in the angle stop. The displacement of the feed body is thus when actuated the nailing device secured, the transfer the movement can be regarded as practically undisturbed is.
  • the bearing bolt is preferably the bearing bolt for the firing pin, so that only one pin in the angle stop must be provided.
  • the feed claw is or are the feed claws in the feed body spring loaded.
  • the feed claws can thus be retracted of the feed body by a retaining spring dodge held nails.
  • At least two, preferably three, fixed feed claws preferably made of steel.
  • the entire evasive movement of the nails must Push the feed body back through the feed claws opposite retaining spring accomplished become.
  • this version is much more robust and also cheaper.
  • a groove is provided for the nail head guide in the hammer head and in that part the lever part that connects the hammer head with the magazine.
  • a groove is provided in the opposite Magazine base.
  • the opposite Magazine base is one that guides the taped nails and retention spring to prevent retraction. This results in safe guidance, in particular also the nails arranged at the end of a nail ribbon and a backup that the nails when pulling back the Feed body are not pulled back.
  • the retaining spring is preferably made of metal and contains one or more retention claws coming from the spring body are punched and bent out. These retention claws are at the level of one of the connecting wires or the connecting wire of the strapped nails.
  • the metal spring is robust and the claw can be punched out and bending open relatively easily. Since she arranged at the level of the connecting wire of the nails jamming of the nail shaft in the claw prevented.
  • the Outer diameter corresponds to the inner diameter of the coil and their cylinder surface under the nail shafts Exemption of the nail heads or on the wires of the innermost coilage is present. So even with the Processing the last nails of a nail band too Malfunction of the nailing device.
  • the exemption of the nail heads is preferably thereby ensures that the winding tube is a cylinder and is arranged at a distance from the magazine bottom, or that the winding tube has an annular groove for receiving the Has nail heads.
  • the winding tube is advantageously rotatable on one Axle mandrel connected to the magazine bottom stored around a to ensure trouble-free unwinding of the coil.
  • the winding tube preferably has a height of approximately corresponds to the width of the nail tape.
  • the nail device according to the invention When using the nail device according to the invention with a coilable nail band with nails which are connected by at least two wires, the wires being quenched and tempered and having a tensile strength of 392-539 N / mm 2 (40-55 kp / mm 2 ), there are faults practically excluded by tilting and wedging the nails when operating the nailing device.
