- FIG. 2 32 33 BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
- Various fastener-driving tools with automatic recycling features have heretofore been provided; however, because of certain design characteristics they have been beset with one or more of the following shortcomings: a. the housing in which i the drive piston is mounted is formed of a plurality of component parts which are susceptible of becoming loose and out of adjustment due to vibration forces caused particularly when the tool is operating at high speeds over a prolonged period of time, b. there is no accurate means provided for varying the speed of recycling of the tool, c. the prior tools are position sensitive, that is to say they worked properly only when held in a predetermined position by the operator, d. the automatic recycling mechanism is located in an awkward and somewhat inaccessible position on the tool, e.
- the compressed air exhausted by the prior tools oftentimes has entrained therein grease, dust, or other debris which is directed towards the operator or workpiece thereby causing injury to the operator or defacement to the exposed surface of the workpiece, f. the prior tools are oftentimes of bulky, heavy construction thereby causing fatique to the operator after only a short period of use.
- a pneumatically powered fastener-driving tool comprising a hollow monolithic housing having a chamber formed therein in which compressed air is accumulated. Disposed within the housing is an elongated cylinder having a pair of longitudinally spaced ports formed in the wall intermediate the ends thereof: A poppet valve is adjustably positioned adjacent one end of the cylinder and controlstheintroduction of compressed air into'the cylinder to effect firing of a fastener-driving piston mounted for reciprocatory movement within said cylinder. The poppet valve is mounted for sliding sealing engagement within a cavity formed in a cap, the latter being mounted on the end of the housing. The cylinder cooperates with the housing interior to form a pair of longitudinally spaced annular cavities.
- the one annular cavity is in constant communication with the housing chamber and thus, is continually charged with compressed air.
- the outer periphery of the poppet valve projects outwardly beyond the cylinder wall and is exposed to the said one annular cavity.
- the housing is provided with first and second passageways; the first passageway having one end thereof communicating with the cap cavity.
- the first passageway end is separated from the end of the cylinder by the poppet valve.
- the opposite end of the first passageway terminates at a manually adjustable trigger valve carried by the housing.
- Thesecond passageway has one end'thereof communicating with the annular cavity furthest removed from said poppet valve.
- the opposite end of said second passageway communicates with said trigger valve. Communication between the corresponding ends of the first and second passageways is controlled by a manually adjusted spool forming apart of the trigger valve.
- the driving piston is of a double spool type and is provided with an enlarged head which is disposed adjacent the poppet valve when said piston is in its fully retracted position within said cylinder. Spaced longitudinally from the enlarged head is an annular flange which is in sliding sealing engagement with the cylinder interior wall. When the piston is in its fully retracted position, the annular flange is positioned so asto sealingly separate the longitudinally spaced ports formed in the cylinder wall.
- both of the longitudinally spaced ports communicate with the spacing formed between thehead and flange of the piston.
- the buildup of compressed air pressure within the spacing between the head and flangeof the piston when the latter is in its fully extended position is such that the piston will be automatically returned to its fully retract'ed position.
- a manually actuated automatic recycling valve is mounted on said housing and, when in one position of adjustment, will cause automatic recycling or repeated firing of the driving piston, provided the trigger valve 7 is depressed.
- FIG. 1. is an elevational view of one form of the improved fastener-driving tool.
- FIGS. 2 and 3 are fragmentary vertical sectional views of the tool of FIG. 1 and showing, respectively, the driving piston in its fully retracted and fully extended positions.
- FIG. 4 is a fragmentary sectional view taken along line 4--4 of FIG.v 2 and'showing the automatic recycling valvein a non-recycling position.
- FIG. 5 is similar to FIG. 4, but taken along line 5--5 of FIG. 3 and showing jthe recycling valve in position for automatic recycling of the-piston.
- FIG. 6 is similar to FIG. 2, but showing amodified form of the improved fastener-driving tool'.
- FIG. 7 is similar to FIG. 5, but taken along line 77 of FIG. '6 andshowing the recycling valve in position for automatic recycling of the. driving piston.
- a pneumatically powered fastener-driving tool 10 which .comprises a monolithic, or one piece, housing 11.
- the housing includes a hollow driving piston portion 12, a hollow-handle portion 13, and a fastener feed portion 14.
- the handle portion 13 is provided, at its outer end, with a suitable connector C to receive one end of an air hose.
- a hollow cap 15 On the upper end of thehousing portion 12 is removably mounted a hollow cap 15.
- a nose section, N On the opposite or lower end of portion 12 is mounted a nose section, N.
- housing portion 12 Fixedly secured within housing portion 12 is an elongated cylinder 16 which has the upper interior portion 16a thereof of slightly greater diamter than the lower interior portion 16b, as seen in FIGS. 2 and 3.
- the exterior of cylinder 16 cooperates with the hollow interior of housing portion 12 so as to form a pair of vertically, or axially spaced annular cavities 17 and 18.
- Upper cavity 17 is in continuous communication with the hollow interior 13a of the handle portion which, in turn, is chargedwith compressed air.
- the wall of cylinder 16 is provided with two sets and 21 of apertures which are arranged in axially spaced cylinder-encircling rows.
- the row of apertures 20 is disposed adjacent the lower end of the cylinder interior portion 16a and effects communication between annular cavity 17 and the cylinder interior.
- the row of apertures 21, on the other hand, is located in the upper portion of the cylinder interior 16b, see FIG. 2. Apertures 21 effect communication between annular cavity 18 and the cylinder interior.
- a driver piston 22 which, in the illustrated embodiment, is a double spool type.
- the upper end of the piston is provided with an enlarged annular head 23, the outer periphery of which is in sliding sealing engagement with the cylinder interior portion 16a.
- an annular flange 24 Spaced axially downwardly from head 23 is an annular flange 24 which is in sliding sealing engagement with the cylinder interior portion 16b.
- the spacing or pressure chamber S between head 23 and flange 24 is greater than the spacing between the rows of apertures 20 and 21.
- the row of apertures 20 is in continuous communication with the portion (spacing S) of the cylinder interior delimited at oppo-' site ends by the head 23 and flange 24.
- the row of apertures 21, is in communication with the cylinder interior disposed beneath flange 24, when the piston 22 is in its fully retracted or return position, see FIG. 2.
- apertures 21 communicate with the portion of the cylinder interior disposed between the head 23 and flange 24, see FIG. 3.
- the radius of head '23 is slightly greater than the radius of flange 24 and thus, when both rows of apertures are in communication with the spacing S, the force exerted by the compressed air on the underside of the head 23 will be greater than that exerted on the upper side of flange 24, because of the area difference and thereby cause the drive piston to return to its fully retracted position.
- a driver blade 25 Depending axially from the underside of flange 24 is an elonagated driver blade 25.
- the blade 25 extends through a central opening 26a formed in a resilient ringlike bumper 26, the latter being removably mounted .within the housing interior at the lower end of cylinder 16.
- the bumper is arranged in concentric relation with respect to an opening 27 formed in the bottom of housing portion 12. The bumper may be readily replaced, when required, and serves to cushion the impact of the flange 24 when the piston 22 reaches the end of its drive stroke, see FIG. 3.
- the lower end of the driver blade is adapted to to be quided by the nose piece N so as to engage a fastener automatically fed from the housing feed portion 14 and drive same into a workpiece.
- annular poppet valve 28 Adjustably mounted on the upper end of the cylinder 16 and adapted to overlie same is an annular poppet valve 28.
- the valve is adapted to move between an open position, see FIG. 3, and a closed position,'see FIG. 2, with respect to the upper end of the cylinder.
- the valve 28 is disposed within a suitable cavity 30 formed within the interior of the cap 15.
- Valve 28 when in its closed position, has a portion of the underside of the outer periphery thereof extending laterally beyond the cylinder upper end into annular cavity 17 and thus, is exposed to the compressed air accumulated therein.
- valve 28 is in sliding sealing engagement with the interior surface of cavity Extending upwardlyfrom the central portion of valve 28 is a cylindrical protuberance 31, the exterior of which is in sliding, sealing engagement with a second cavity 32 formed in the cap interior. Protuberance 31 is provided with an axial bore 33 which extends through the entire valve 28.
- the valve 28 is biased in a closed position with respect to the cylinder upper end by one or more suitable coil springs 34.
- a disc-shaped seal 35 mounted at the upper end of the second cavity 32 is a disc-shaped seal 35, which is adapted to be engaged by the upper end of valve protuberance 31 and close off the upper end of bore 33, see FIG. 3, when the poppet valve is in its open position.
- an air discharge port 36 formed in the cap 15.
- the lower end of the port 36 is aligned with an elongated passageway 37 formed in the housing portion 12.
- the lower end of passageway 37 terminates in a chamber 38, see FIGS. 2 and 4, formed in the housing and in which is adjustably positioned a manual/automatic recycling valve 40.
- the chamber 38 is disposed to one side of cylinder l6 and extends transversely of the axis of said cylinder. Opposite ends 380 and 38b of the chamber are open to the atmosphere.
- Chamber end 38a is the smaller of the two ends and is adapted to accommodate in sliding, sealing engagement the small end 40a of the valve 40.
- Passageway 41 interconnects chamber 38 with the lower annular cavity 18 which encircles the lower portion of drive cylinder 16.
- Passageway 42 interconnects the chamber 38 with a ported sleeve 43 which forms a part of a trigger valve 44 carried on the handle portion 13 of the housing 11.
- the functions of the passageways 37, 41 and 42 with chamber 38 are in'axially spaced relation, as seen in FIG. 4.
- Valve 40 is manually adjustable axially within chamber 38. When the valve 40 is moved to the right to the position shown in FIG. 4, passageways 37 and 42 are vented to the atmosphere and passageway 41 is blocked. When the valve 40 is in the position, shown in FIG. 4, the driver piston 22 will not recycle and continue to fire, even though the trigger valve 44 is held in a depressed condition.
- valve 40 when valve 40 has been manually moved inwardly to the fullest extent into the chamber 38, the inner end 40a of the valve 40 is provided with a reduced cross-sectional portion 40c which will effect interconnection between passageways 41 and 42 and cause automatic recycling and continuous firing of the driver piston 22, provided the trigger valve 44 is manually held in a depressed state.
- the method by which automatic recycling will occur will be described more fully hereinafter.
- the central portion of valve 40 may be provided with external threads 40d which are adapted to mesh with internal threads formed in the wall of chamber 38.
- an annular deflector piece 45 is carried by the exposed end 40b of valve 40, see FIGS. 4 and 5.
- the deflector piece diffuses the blast of the discharged compressed air and thus protects the operator of the tool and the workpiece into which the fasteners are driven, against any foreign matter or debris, which might be entrained in the air blast. Frequently droplets of oil or similar fluid become entrained in the discharged air blast and if left unchecked, might cause injury to or soiling of the face of the operator or the exposedsurface of the workpiece.
- the exposed enlarged end 40b of the valve may be knurled to facilitate manual manipulation of the valve.
- the location of the valve 40 on the housing 11 may be varied from that shown without departing from the scope of the invention. For example, if desired, the valve 40 may be located in the cap 15.
- the trigger valve 44 is preferably located in the handle portion 13 of .the housing 11, see FIG. 2.
- the valve 44 includes the ported sleeve 43 which is shrunk-tit into a cylindrical bore 46 formed in the handle portion. The upper end of the sleeve is open and exposed to the handle chamber 13a in which compressed air is accumulated.
- the sleeve 43 is provided with two sets of apertures 47a and 47b which are in axially spaced relation. Apertures 47a communicate with a passageway 48 formed in the housingportion 1l Passageway 48, in turn, communicates with a passageway 50 formed in cap 15 and leading to the upper end of cavity 30 formed in the cap. Apertures 47b, on the I other hand, communicate with passageway 42.
- a trigger valve piece 51 .Slidably mounted within sleeve 43 is a trigger valve piece 51.
- the .lower'end 51a of the piece projects downwardly from the end of the sleeve and is adapted to be manually depressed.
- the piece 51 may be biased by a spring, to assume its downwardly extended position, see FIG. 2.
- the valve piece 51 is retained in a conventional manner within the sleeve 43 by means of the trigger lever, as seen more clearly in FIG. 1.
- a portion 51b of the piece has a reduced cross section. The axial length of portion 51b is greater than the axial spacing between apertures 47a and 47b formed in sleeve 43.
- O-ring 52 and 53 Adjacent each end of portion 51b is an O-ring 52 and 53 which is in sliding sealing engagement with the interior surface of sleeve 43.
- O-ring 52 is disposed interend of bore 46. The combination of the air pressure within the upper portion of cavity 30 and the bias of spring 34 exerted on poppet valve 28 are sufficient to hold the latter in closed position over the upper end of cylinder 16 and thus prevent firing of the driver piston 22.
- the speed of return of the driver piston from its fully extended position (FIG. 3) to its fully' retracted position (FIG. 2) will depend upon the speed with which the compressed air above the piston head 23 is exhausted out through bore 33, passageways 36 and 37 and the enlarged end 38b of chamber 38. It will be noted in FIGS. 4 and 5, that the portion 40e of valve 40, which is adjacent the threading portion 400, is outwardly tapered. Thus, as valve 40 is manually moved to the left or inwardly, as seen in FIG. 5, the size of the exhuast passage E, whichis formed between the interior surface of chamber 38Iarid the exterior of the large end of the valve 40, becomes increasingly more restricted. thus, upon rotating valve 40 into chamber 38, a greater or lesser amount than shown in FIG; 5, the operator can vary the speed of return or recycling, as desired.
- FIGS. 6 and 7 show a modified form of pneumatically powered tool 110 which is similar in construction to tool 10 :except as to the auto-recycle valve and the manner of controlling the air exhaust from above the driver piston head.
- tool 110 eliminates passageway 37 and in place thereof passageway 136 is ported directly to the atmosphere.
- Threadably mounted on cap 115 is an exhaust air regulator screw 200. The inner end 200a of the screw extends into passageway 136 so as to restrict same.
- a deflector piece 201 is also mounted on cap 115 and diffuses the exhaust air discharged from passageway 136 so as to prevent any debris entrained in the exhaust from striking the operator or workpiece surfaces.
- FIG. 7 shows a modified form of auto-recycle valve 140 which is substituted for valve 40 shown in FIGS. 4 and 5.
- Valve 140 is slidably disposed within a chamber 138, which is disposed to one side of cylinder 116 and extends transversely with respect thereto. Passageways 141 and 142 junction with chamber .138 in axially spaced relation.
- the inner end portion of the valve 140 carries an O-ring 202 which is in sliding sealing engagement with the interior surface of chamber 138.
- O-ring 202 Disposed outwardly of O-ring 202 is a portion 140a of reduced cross section, which, when the valve is pushed inwardly relative to chamber 138 so that the O-ring 202 is disposed between passageways 141 and 142, causes the passageway 142 to be vented to the atmosphere through flutes 203 formed in the outer end portion of the valve.
- An annular collar 204 is formed on the exterior of the exposed end of valve 140 to facilitate manual manipulation thereof. Suitable stop means, not shown, may be provided to limit'the extent to which valve 140 can be withdrawn from chamber l38 so as to render the tool on automatic recycling.
- the location of the automatic recycling valve on the tool may be varied from that shown so as to serve the convenience of the operator.
- a tool has been provided with an automatic recycling feature which is of simple, sturdy construction and may be readily adjusted by the operator to vary the speed of recycling.
- the improved tool is provided with a safety feature which diffuses the blast of exhaust air so as to protect the operator, as well as the workpiece, from any debris which might be entrained in the exhaust air.
- the improved tool has a monolithic housing which materially reduces maintenance of the tool.
- a pneumatically powered fastener-driving tool comprising a hollow housing; an elongated cylinder mounted within said housing and cooperating therewith to form a pair of longitudinally spaced upper and lower cavities adjacent the exterior of said cylinder, said cylinder being provided with a pair of longitudinally spaced upper and lower openings, communicating respectively with the upper and lower cavities, said upper cavity being continuously charged with pneumatic pressure; a pneumatically responsive driver piston mounted for reciprocatory movement within said cylinder between a fully retracted position and afully extended position, said piston having a head in sliding sealing engagement with an upper portion of the cylinder interior surface, and a flange spaced longitudinally from said head and in sliding sealing engagement with a lower portion of said cylinder interior surface and cooperating with said head to form a pressure chamber therebetween; the longitudinal spacing between said head and flange being greater than the spacing between said upper and lower openings, the surface of said head adjacent said pressure chamber having a greater area than the corresponding surface of said flange, said driver piston flange being disposed intermediate said
