As a result, the seal member 34d is separated from the opening groove 35e, and the accumulator chamber 31 is opened to the atmosphere. By opening the accumulator chamber 31 to the atmosphere, the work of removing the nails of the driving nose portion 18 can be performed quickly.
  • the driving tool 30 also has a filling valve 32, a relief valve 33, and an opening valve 34 in the accumulator chamber 31.

  • the filling valve 32, the relief valve 33, and the opening valve 34 are all arranged above the cylinder 12. Therefore, the configuration around the cylinder 12 is simplified, and the driving tool 30 can be slimmed down.
  • the filling valve 32, the relief valve 33, and the opening valve 34 are arranged so as not to protrude from the outer shell of the upper housing 35. As a result, it is possible to avoid interference of other articles and the like with each valve 32, 33, 34 and prevent damage thereof.
  • the pressure in the accumulator chamber 20 rises by moving the striking piston 13 up to the top dead center by the drive mechanism having the electric motor 17. In this way, the pressure required for the striking motion is secured by utilizing the upward motion of the striking piston 13. Therefore, no special means for increasing the pressure in the accumulator chamber 20 is required.
  • the upper housings 21 and 35 are formed in a concave shape and used as the valve frame 23a.
  • the relief valves 23 and 33 may be assembled by using a dedicated valve frame 22a such as the filling valves 22 and 32.

  • the third embodiment is shown in FIGS. 11 to 13.
  • the driving tool system S in which the driving tool 40 is filled with the compressed gas by using the adapter 50 is exemplified.
  • the driving tool system S supplies the driving tool 40 with compressed gas as a power source.
  • a gas spring type driving tool for driving the driving tools n one by one as in the first and second embodiments is exemplified.
  • the driving tool 40 has a tool main body portion 10, a handle portion 5, a magazine 9, and a driving nose portion 18 in which a striking mechanism and a drive mechanism are incorporated.
  • the description of other members and configurations similar to those of the first and second embodiments will be omitted by using the symbols of agreement.
  • the upper housing 21 is airtightly connected to the upper part of the tool housing 11.
  • the pressure accumulator chamber 41 is located inside the upper housing 21 and above the striking piston 13.
  • the accumulator chamber 41 is provided with a filling valve 42 and an opening valve 43.
  • the filling valve 42 includes a cylindrical valve frame body 42a and a plunger 42b displaceably supported by the valve frame body 42a as in the first and second embodiments.
  • the plunger 42b is urged to the closed side by the compression spring 42c.
  • the on-off valve 43 has the same configuration as the on-off valve 34 of the second embodiment.
  • the accumulator chamber 41 is filled with the compressed gas by attaching the adapter 50 to the filling valve 42.
  • the adapter 50 has a substantially cylindrical shape that is long in the vertical direction and has a ventilation path 50a on the inner peripheral side.
  • a first connection port 51 dedicated to the connection form with respect to the filling adapter 42 is provided at the lower part of the adapter 50.
  • the upper part of the adapter 50 has a highly versatile second connection port 52 whose connection form is defined by a standard or the like.
  • the first connection port 51 is provided with an opening pin 51a.
  • An on-off valve 54 is non-removably attached to the second connection port 52.
  • the on-off valve 54 includes a cylindrical frame body 54a and one plunger 54b supported by the frame body 54a.
  • the plunger 54b is urged to the closed side by the compression spring 54c.
  • the nozzle 61 of the external compressed gas supply device 60 is connected to the second connection port 52.
  • An opening pin 62 is provided on the inner peripheral side of the nozzle 61.
  • the adapter 50 is provided with a relief valve 53.
  • the relief valve 53 is provided in the middle of the ventilation path 50a.
  • the relief valve 53 has a configuration in which one plunger 53b is supported on the valve frame 53a.
  • the plunger 53b is urged to the closed side by a compression spring 53c.
  • the relief valve 53 has a configuration similar to that of the relief valve 33 of the second embodiment.

  • the relief valve 53 provided in the adapter 50 avoids the supply of excessive compressed gas, and the gas pressure in the accumulator chamber 41 is maintained at the set pressure.
  • the adapter 50 is removed from the filling valve 42 when the accumulator chamber 41 is completely filled with the compressed gas or is not filled. Therefore, the relief valve 53 is also removed together with the adapter 50. Therefore, the relief valve 53 is protected from vibrations and impacts generated by driving the gas driving device (driving tool 40).
  • the relief valve 53 is attached to the driving tool 40 only when necessary (when filled with gas), and is removed when the driving tool 40 is driven, so that the relief valve 53 is durable. The sex is enhanced.
  • the second connection port 52 of the adapter 50 has a general-purpose connection form defined by a standard or the like, and the first connection port 51 has a connection form dedicated to the driving tool system S. .. Therefore, as the on-off valve 54 of the adapter 50, a valve that is not compatible with the filling valve 42 (for example, the opening size for connection is different) is used. Therefore, the compressed gas supply device 60 cannot be directly connected to the filling valve 42, and the adapter 50 must be used for the work of filling the accumulator chamber 41 with the compressed gas.
  • the work of filling the accumulator chamber 41 with the compressed gas can be quickly performed by using the adapter 50 having the relief valve 53. Further, the relief valve 53 keeps the accumulator chamber 41 at a set pressure. The release valve 43 opens the accumulator chamber 41 to the atmosphere so that the work of removing nails can be performed quickly and easily.
  • the adapter 50 is removed in a state where the accumulator chamber 41 is not filled with the compressed gas (for example, during the driving operation).
  • the relief valve 53 is protected from the impact at the time of driving. Therefore, the durability of the relief valve 53 is enhanced.
  • the opening / closing valve 54 of the second connection port 52 is not compatible with the filling valve 42 due to the difference in the connection form such as the opening size. Therefore, the external compressed gas supply device 60 cannot be directly connected to the filling valve 42. As a result, it is necessary to use the adapter 50 having the relief valve 53 in the work of filling the accumulator chamber 41 with the compressed gas. As a result, the filling operation is performed only in a situation where the relief valve 53 avoids the supply of excessive compressed gas. Therefore, excessive supply of compressed gas to the accumulator chamber is avoided.
