Abstract
A nail stapler 20 includes a magazine 27 for containing nails and a gun 20 for shooting the nails from the magazine. The gun includes a shell 21, a solenoid 30 put in the shell, a mandrel 40 put in the shell to be attracted from an original position to a punching position by means of the solenoid, a hammer 41 secured to the mandrel and inserted through the solenoid, a spring 43 for moving the mandrel to the original position from the punching position against the solenoid and a security device put in the shell for slowing down the mandrel when the mandrel is moved to the original position from the punching position by means of the spring. The security device includes a cup 44 and an insert 50 attached to the shell of the gun. Alternatively the cup can be attached to the shell (Fig 5).
Description
1 NAIL STAPLER
3 Field of Invention
4 The present invention relates to a nail stapler.
6 Backeround of Invention 7 Referring to Figures 10 and 11, a conventional nail stapler includes a gun 8 10 and a magazine 16. The gun 10 includes a shell 11, a solenoid 12 put 9 in the shell 11, a mandrel 13 put in the shell 11, a spring 14 compressed between an end of the solenoid 12 and a head of the mandrel 13 and a l l hammer 15 secured to the mandrel 13. When activated, the solenoid 12 12 attracts the mandrel 13 and the hammer 15 so as to punch a staple nail 17 13 from the magazine 16 through an outlet 18. When the magnetic force is 14 gone, the mandrel 13 is returned by means of the spring 14.

Detailed Description of Embodiments
16 Referring to Figures 1-4, a nail stapler includes a gun 20 (partially shown) 17 and a magazine 27. The gun 20 includes a shell 21, a solenoid 30 and a 18 mandrel 40.
The shell 21 consists of two halves. A retainer 24 is formed on an 21 internal face of each halve of the shell 21. As the halves of the shell 21 22 are assembled, the retainers 24 become a partition between an upper 23 space 22 and a lower space 23. Each retainer 24 is crescent so that the 24 retainers 24 define an aperture 26 as they are assembled.
I The solenoid 30 defines an axial channel 31. The solenoid 30 is put in 2 the shell 21. A pad 32 is positioned between the solenoid 30 and a 3 portion of the shell 21.
A hammer 41 is secured to a lower end of the mandrel 40. The hammer 6 41 is inserted in the spring 43 and the axial channel 31 of the solenoid 30.
7 The mandrel 40 is inserted in the spring 43.
9 A security device according to a first embodiment of the present invention lo is shown in Figures 1-4. The security device includes a cup 44 and an 11 insert 50. The cup 44 includes an annular flange 49 formed about an 12 upper end and a cavity 42 defined therein. The cup 44 is secured to an 13 upper end of the mandrel 40. The spring 43 is compressed between an 14 upper end of the solenoid 30 and the annular flange 49.
16 The insert 50 includes a head 52 and a body 58 extending from the head 17 52 and including a reduced diameter. Two rings 53 are put in two 8 grooves 51 defined in the body 58. The insert 50 is put in the shell 21.
19 The head 52 is put in the upper space 22 while the body 58 is put in the lower space 23 through the aperture 26 so as to retain the insert 50 in 21 position.
23 Referring to Figure 2, when activated, the solenoid 30 attracts the 24 mandrel 40. Therefore, the hammer 41 is moved downwards so as to punch a staple or nail 29 from a magazine 28 through an outlet 27. The 1 spring 43 is compressed.
3 Referring to Figure 3, when not actuated, the solenoid 30 releases the 4 mandrel 40. The mandrel 40 is moved to its original position by means of the spring 43.
7 Referring to Figure 4, as the mandrel 40 reaches its original portion, the 8 rings 53 are inserted in the cavity 42. The rings 53 contact the wall of 9 the cavity 42. Friction between the rings 53 and the wall of the cavity 42 slows down the cup 44 and therefore the mandrel 40. Thus, the 11 mandrel 40 does not rebound from the retainer 24 and does not punch a 12 staple or nail 29 by mistake.
4 Figure 5 shows a nails stapler according to a second embodiment of the present invention. The second embodiment is identical to the first 16 embodiment except for including bigger and more elastic rings 54 instead 17 of the rings 53.
19 Figures 6-8 show a nail stapler according to a third embodiment of the present invention is shown. The third embodiment is identical to the 21 first embodiment except for three things. Firstly, a cap 50' is used 22 instead of the insert 50. The cap 50' includes an annular groove 55 23 defined in a periphery and a space 56 defined therein. The annular 24 groove 55 receives the retainers 24 so as to keep the cap 50'in position in the shell 21. The cap 50' is like the cup 44 in function. Secondly, 1 instead of the cup 44, an insert 44' is secured to the mandrel 40. The 2 insert 44' includes two annular grooves 45 receiving two rings 47. The 3 insert 44' is like the insert 50 in function. Thirdly, the annular flange 49 4 is formed on the mandrel 40 instead of on the cup 44.
6 Figure 9 shows a security device according to a fourth embodiment of the 7 present invention. The fourth embodiment is identical to the third 8 embodiment except for including bigger and more elastic rings 48.
The present invention has been described via detailed illustration of four 11 embodiments. Those skilled in the art can derive variations from the 12 embodiments without departing from the scope of the present invention.
13 Hence, the embodiments shall not limit the scope of the present invention 14 defined in the claims.
