Definitions
- the piston launches the anvil and/or anvil assembly prior to or within less than 20% of the total fastener stroke. This results in an improved safety profile in the event of a jam, as the anvil and anvil assembly will have dissipated its kinetic energy, thus allowing the user to fix the jam without having potential energy remaining in the anvil and anvil assembly.
- Figure 6 shows a piston flange of a fastener driving apparatus, in accordance with an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure.
- the present disclosure provides for a fastener driving apparatus 100.
- the apparatus 100 comprises a power source 10, a control circuit 20, a motor 30, a gas spring 40, a drive mechanism 50, an anvil assembly 60, and an anvil 62.
- the apparatus 100 may further comprise an anvil return mechanism 64 and at least one bumper 70.
- the gas spring 40 includes a piston 42, which piston 42 is at least partially disposed within a sealed chamber 44, and which piston 42 is selectively actuated by the drive mechanism 50.
- a bumper 72 is preferably disposed within the gas spring 40 to absorb a portion of the force of impact of the piston 42.
- the drive mechanism is operatively coupled to the spring such that the drive mechanism may alternate in actuating the spring (when the gear teeth or cam is engaged, for example) and in refraining from applying a drive force on the such that other forces are able to act on and actuate the spring.
- the drive mechanism preferably acts directly upon the anvil assembly, which anvil assembly is at least operatively coupled to the spring and moves the spring to store potential energy (as described elsewhere herein.)
- the anvil and/or anvil assembly is operatively coupled to the spring, such that when the spring is released from the drive mechanism the force from the spring is imparted onto the anvil and/or anvil assembly, causing the anvil and/or anvil assembly to move in a direction and to release (or be launched) away from the spring and drive a fastener, for example.
- the mass of the anvil is at least two times the mass of the spring.
- the spring has a mass of 90 grams and the anvil has a mass of 250 grams.
- the anvil may be operatively coupled to a guide, shaft, or other structure that limits and guides the range of motion of the anvil.
