Definitions

  • the present invention concerns the safety device for nail application and in particular it relates to a safety device for actuating a nailer.
  • a safety device for actuating a nailer.
  • Such a safety device as per the preamble to independent claim 1, is known from document US 2009/108016 A .
  • nailers equipped with a trigger for expelling, or shooting, a nail and with a safety device comprising a probe placed near the output for the nail and movable between a normal position, or protruding, in which it prevents the nail ejection blocking or disabling the trigger and a retracted condition, reachable putting the output nail region of the nailer against the part to be nailed, in which the safe is disabled and the trigger is enabled for firing; the fire takes place each time a condition is reached in which the probe means is set back and the trigger is pressed.
  • operators use the safe as a nail eject command, keeping the trigger pressed and putting the ejection portion of the nailer in rapid succession onto the areas to be nailed so as to apply nails with extreme speed.
  • nailer machines were introduced to be equipped with a selector lever for the operation, usually placed near the trigger, which allows to select two operation modes: repeat mode, also known as hammer mode, in which the nail ejection is controlled by the secure probe contact with the work piece while the operator keeps pressed the trigger, and a single-shot mode in which the trigger release is needed after a shot to prepare the nailer for the subsequent ejection that occurs only if first of all the probe is in contact position and then the trigger is pressed.
  • repeat mode also known as hammer mode
  • a single-shot mode in which the trigger release is needed after a shot to prepare the nailer for the subsequent ejection that occurs only if first of all the probe is in contact position and then the trigger is pressed.
  • a disadvantage of this type of known drive mechanism consists in that the operators may handle the nailer without checking the position of the selection lever and, sometimes due to bridge lack, activating and keep pressing the trigger, if the selection lever was in firing hammer or repeat position, there is a dangerous condition because the safe probe could contact a body part of operator or onlooker so causing personal injury.
  • One object of the present invention is to propose a safety device for the actuation a nailer which requires active and conscious operation by the operator for nail ejection with hammer mode.
  • Another object is to propose a device switching off the repeat ejection mode as soon as the operator leaves the nailer.
  • the safety device which attains these objects is disclosed in the attached claim 1.
  • numeral 1 indicates the safety device for actuating a nailer, object of the present invention.
  • the nailer for example of pneumatic type for nails, staples or the like, is provided with a firing button 5, of known type, and safety means comprising a probe means 9, of which the figures illustrate only the inner end portion, having the inner end 11 lying in the device 1 or close to nailer controls.
  • the probe means 9 and the respective inner end 11 translate along their longitudinal axis, which is approximately parallel to the direction of nails ejection, between a retracted condition R, facing the interior of the nailer, and a protruding condition S, toward the shot direction.
  • the probe means 9 is elastically pushed by elastic means, not shown, towards outside, along the nails shooting direction, or towards the protruding condition S.
  • the device 1 also comprises a first trigger 15 rotating around a first pin 17 for connecting the nailer, on a plane parallel to the motion direction of the firing button 5 and approximately coincident with the symmetry median plane of the nailer.
  • the rotating first trigger 15 may be of the type obtained by die-cutting and bending of a metal plate and, as in the example of the figures, can be constituted by two shaped plates parallel and joined in correspondence of the finger action area of an operator.
  • the first trigger 15 is provided with a spring, not shown, which elastically pushes this latter outwards or towards the shooting direction in order to keep it in the normal rest condition without the actuation of the operator's finger.
  • the first pin 17, for example fixed or housed in seats carried out at the ends of the two plates of the first trigger opposite to the finger zone, is perpendicular to the actuation motion of the firing button 5 and to the rotation plane of the first trigger for example coincident with the geometric median plane between the two plates.
  • the device 1 is also equipped with an arm means 19, approximately shaped as tuning fork or two teeth fork, and a second trigger 27 plate shaped and swivelling connected to the first trigger 15 by a second rotation pin 29, parallel to the first pin 17.
  • the arm means 19 includes a first end 21, an end portion 23 opposite the first end and fit to abut slidingly with the inner end 11 of the probe means 9 and a central portion fit to act onto the button 5 for operating the latter.
  • the first end 21 of the arm means 19 is interconnected to the first 15 and second 27 triggers for moving it.
  • the terminal portion 23 may be tapered or otherwise shaped to facilitate the sliding against the inner end 11 of the probe means 9.
  • the second trigger 27, at outer and inner ends of its rotation arc with respect to the first trigger 15, has two opposite operating and releasing conditions respectively corresponding to the single shoot condition C and the hammer shoots condition M.
  • the second trigger 27 leaves the first end 21 of the arm means 19 in a position for which the opposite end portion 23 of arm means 19 disengages from the inner end 11 of the probe means 9 when the latter 9 moves from the retracted condition R towards the protruding condition S, with the first trigger maintained in the firing position, so preventing the firing of a second shot until the first trigger release.
  • the invention provides that the arm means 19 is slightly shorter to disengage from the inner end 11 of the probe means 9 when the first trigger 15 exceeds the actuation position of the button 5 towards its end operating position, in this way is inhibited the ability to shoot more nails at the same point while always keeping the probe means 9 in the retracted condition R and acting more times onto the first trigger.
  • the first end 21 of the arm means 19 is swivelling and translating connected to the first trigger 15 and the second trigger 27 has a displacement means 31 acting onto the first end 21 of the arm means 19 translating it towards the probe means 9.
  • the first end 21 of the arm means 19 carries a third pin 35 parallel to the first pivot 17 and engaged, in a freely rotating and slidingly, with a slot means 37 formed in the first trigger 15 and having a longitudinal geometric axis preferably perpendicular or inclined with respect to the translation direction of the probe means 9.
  • the slot means 37 involves both the parallel plates of the first trigger, so both end portions of the third pin 35 slide into respective seats of the slot means 37 carried out in the faced portions of the plates.
  • the shifting means 31 of the second trigger 27 preferably has a cam protruding profile slidingly acting onto the first end 21 of the arm means 19 or onto the respective third pivot 35, or, alternatively, the shifting means 31 consists of a second slot means formed in a protrusion of the second trigger 27 and tilted compared to the first slot means 37 and slidingly engaged by said third pivot 35.
  • the invention also provides a further alternative embodiment of the interconnection between the first end 21 of the arm means 19 and the triggers first 15 and second 27, not shown in the figures because of its easy understanding.
  • the first end 21 of the arm means 19 is connected, as connecting rod, via a rotating pin to a protrusion of the second trigger 27, which actuation moves the first end 21 of the arm mean 19 toward the probe means 9.
  • the first trigger 15 is equipped with a stop means 39 fit to abut with the arm means 19, defining the position, at least when the triggers 15, 27 are not actuated.
  • the device 1 is also provided with first spring means fit to elastically push the arm means 19 towards said abutment position with the stop means.
  • the third pin 35 is movable into the slot means 37, is engaged to the first end 21 (preferably fork shaped as previously indicated) of the arm means 19 and is engaged in a freely rotatable way to a seat means 41, preferably housed in the cavity between the teeth of the first fork end 21.
  • the seat means 41 can be wheel shaped with radial cavity designed to accommodate an end of a first spring means 43, of compressed helical type, whose remaining end is fixed to the first trigger 15 for example by a mount displaced in a finger portion closest to the probe means 9.
  • the first spring means 43 acts elastically onto the seat means 41 and the first end 21 in the removal direction of this latter from the probe means 9.
  • the length of the arm 19, or the distance between the rotation axis of the first end 21 of the arm means and the end of the respective opposite end portion 23, is between the distances from the inner end 11, of the probe means 9, to opposite end of this latter9 of the slot means 37, to which the third pin 35 radius is subtracted, in the single shoot condition C and protruding condition S of probe means 9 when the first trigger 15 is respectively released and activated in the firing position.
  • the longitudinal dimension of the slot means 37 and the difference between the minimum and maximum radii of the protruding cam profile of the displacement means 31 of the second trigger 27 are such that in the hammer shoots condition M, the end portion 23 of the arm means 19 opposite to respective first end 21 is always in abutment with the inner end 11 of the probe means 9 in any position of the first trigger 27.
  • the operation of the single-shot device requires that the operator puts the nail output at the point to be nailed, thereby placing the probe means 9 in retracted condition R, and that said operator acts, with the finger, onto the first trigger causing the nail firing; the subsequent device removal from the nailed point, with consequent return of probe means 9 into protruding condition S and the first trigger release places the nailer and the device in a start firing condition.
  • the operation of the hammer or repeating device provides that the operator puts the nail output of the device in correspondence of the nailing point, thus putting the probe means 9 in the retracted condition R, and acting with a finger onto the second trigger and that with another finger on the first trigger is caused the nail firing.
  • An advantage of the present invention is to provide a safety device for operating a nailer that requires an active operation by the operator for the nail ejection in hammer mode.
  • Another advantage is to provide a device which will switch off the repetition ejection mode of the nailer when the operator leaves the nailer.
