  • driving and gas obturating means for such projectile types of fasteners have taken various forms and particularly that of a cylinder or piston of metal use of which has not only the disadvantage of interposing a heavy body between the explosive charge and the fastener with attendant diminution of driving power but also the disadvantage of requiring costly precision manufacturing methods to provide the close tolerances and fit needed to insure a minimum of clearance but no binding between the bore of the firing tool and the side wall of the obturator. Such.
  • obturating means takes the form of a convolutely wound strip of paper wrapped around the threaded side of a fastener but this is not only most uneconomical but also rather dangerous since fragmentation of the paper or fiber tube produces flying particles which endanger the eyes of the tool operators and may even cause a violent reaction on the tool, if part of the tube remains as an obstruction in the barrel.
  • the present invention has for one of its objects the provision in connection with explosive driven fasteners of a new and improved member for sealing off the gaseous products of combustion of the propellent powder charge behind the fastener element in order that the available power of the charge may be substantially fully and substantially uniformly utilized while barrel erosion is reduced particularly at high propellent loads.
  • Another object of the invention is the provision of a novel gas check or obturating means made of a light cohesive plastic material having a lubricating effect in the barrel of the tool from which the fasteners are projected and incapable of decomposition to form corrosive products in the barrel during explosion of the propellant.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide means for keeping the extremely high pressure, high temperature propellent gases away from the metal fastener so as to powder containing cartridge and the rear end portion of a fastener of the type described and capable of bringing about the desired obturation regardless of variations between the bore diameter of the tool barrel and the calibre of the fastener and under a variety of spacing conditions between the fastener and explosive cartridge in the tool barrel.

Initiation of the driving operation occurs by striking the rim of cartridge 17 with a firing pin projectable through the aperture 19 provided in the breech lock 18 attached at the rear end of barrel 13.

  • the minimum axial thickness of plastic needed to insure the lateral distention to accomplish obturation will vary with the molecular weight of the polymer, 'with the type and amounts of the aforementioned additives and coloring agents or fillers, and with other factors.
  • Polyethylene (or any equivalent resilient synthetic organic plastic) is admirably suited for the purpose of this invention. In the first place, it is elastically deformable under compression very much like rubber and will compress longitudinally under the axial impact force of the propellant with concomitant lateral distention to provide desired obturation between fastener and propellant. But unlike rubber and certain other plastics, it was found that polyethylene does not have the tackiness and relatively high coeflicient of friction of these materials with respect to a smooth metal surface such as the bore of'the tool barrel but on the contrary has self-lubricating properties even at the high temperatures of powder combustion due to its wax-like surface. Since an obturator coacts with the wall of the bore of the tool barrel as well 'as with the fastener and propellant, the cleansing and lubricating the softening tempeature.
  • the polyethylene driver is important to insure that excessive wear and fouling of the tool barrel is prevented though extraneous lubricant is not used. Furthermore, it was found that the polyethylene gas check does not form corrosive products of combustion under the extreme tempenature and pressure conditions which occur in the tool barrel upon firing of the fastener. On the contrary, a thin protective film of polyethylene is believed to be left on the surface of the bore of the barrel. Since the polyethylene plastic gas checking driver is tough and coherent and not brittle, it was found that it will not disintegrate like fiber or other plastics to leave a residue in the barrel and flying fragments at the muzzle adjacent the work with attendant loss of obturation and danger and inconvenience to the tool operator.
  • the gas check is especially resistant to deterioration under the heat of the burning powder since polyethylene has a slow burning rate at least to the extent that such burning as does occur, does not impair gas sealing.
  • the consumed polyethylene of the thinner posterior section of the gas check is believed to add to the driving power of the powder charge of the cartridge since at the high temperatures attained during explosion of the propellant powder particularly under sustained operation of the tool part of the polyethylene may decompose explosively which may account in part for the disappearance of the thin sections of the polyethylene wad.
  • polyethylene is sufficiently rigid to hold its shape and resist excessive shearing past the fastener and extrusion into the usual clearance space between the barrel bore and the rear end of a fastener even at high propellant powder loads without total loss of elasticity however (polyethylene may be classed as semi-rigid becasue in stiffness it lies between.
  • the conventional categories of rigid and non-rigid plastics Such extrusion of the driving member would cause jamming, loss of obturation and driving power and fouling of any threads on the fastener.
  • the plastic gas check here described is characterized by desired lightness and resulting low loss of driving power sincepolyethylene is one of the-lightest of all plastics having a specific gravity of 0.92. The high differential in weight between the steel fastener and the polyethylene check accentuates the static inertia of the fastener to promote obturating deformation of the gas check.
  • Elastomeric plastics such as rubber, butyrates and vinyl resins and various plastics containing halogen atoms or sulfur leave acidic products of decomposition which in the presence of moisture formed in the barrel after each firing of the tool corrode the barrel.
  • Still other plastics such as ethyl cellulose for example, simply lack flexibility unless plasticisers are incorporated which render these materials less stable because of the tendency of the plasticiser to evaporate or separate out and also reduce Because of the absence of plasticisers, the polyethylene gas check suffers no change in desirable properties on account of aging.
  • the plastic gas checking driver of this invention is preferably made by either an injection or a compression molding process but fabrication by working such as machining of extruded stock is also feasible particularly for an embodiment like Figure 8.
  • an embodiment of the invention such as the type shown in Figures 1 and 2 found suitable for use in an explosive actuated fastener driving tool there was molded a gas check of a polyethylene known as Alathon No. 1 made by E. I. du Pont de Nemours & Company having an average molecular weight of 18,000.
  • Alathon No. 1 made by E. I. du Pont de Nemours & Company having an average molecular weight of 18,000.
  • the anterior portion 1 was easily molded with a diameter within the narrow range from 0.247 of an inch to 0.249 of an inch and a length in the axial direction of about 7 of an inch.

  • 'When thinner sections of portion 2 were found to have disappeared after the fastener was shot the major portion of the gas check was intact and was ejected fromthe muzzle of the barrel of the tool witha pop by theresidual' gases showing the check was still in good condition to provide a gas seal though it has been subjected to the high temperature and high pressure impact of the burning propellant powder.
  • the ability to retain a gas sealing form immediately after a shot facilitates trouble free ejection of the expendable plastic gas check of this invention; but, if pressure is gone, the wad drops out easily.
