Next, as shown in FIG. 3, an example in which the nail gun 11 is used with the mounting portion 56 of the battery pack 13 attached to the mounting portion 30 of the nail gun 11 will be described. When the mounting portion 56 is attached to the mounting portion 30, although not shown, when the guide portion 54 and the guide portion 50 are slid, the guide portion 54 and the guide portion 50 are engaged with each other. When the mounting portion 56 is attached to the mounting portion 30, the terminal 55 and the terminal 51 are electrically connected. Further, the compressor 12 is not attached to the mounting portion 30. Therefore, no external force is applied to the plunger 19A of the filling valve 19, and the filling valve 19 shuts off the passage 104 and the external C1 of the housing 14.

When the control circuit 25 detects at least one of the fact that the operating force for the trigger 49 is released or the push lever 46 is separated from the mating material W1, the control circuit 25 controls the inverter circuit 103 to control the electric motor. The power supply to 20 is stopped. Therefore, the electric motor 20 is stopped. The striking portion 16 is constantly urged in the first direction B1 by receiving the air pressure of the accumulator chamber 17. The rack 35 and the pinion pin 32 are engaged with each other, and the urging force received by the striking portion 16 is transmitted to the wheel 31. The rotation regulation mechanism 57 prevents the wheel 31 from rotating. Therefore, the striking portion 16 is stopped at the standby position.

The standby position of the striking portion 16 is a state in which the striking portion 16 is between the bottom dead center and the top dead center, and the piston 33 is separated from the bumper 36. The top dead center of the striking portion 16 is the position where the piston 33 is farthest from the bumper 36, as shown by the alternate long and short dash line in FIG. The bottom dead center of the striking portion 16 is the position where the piston 33 comes into contact with the bumper 36, as shown by the solid line in FIG.

Supply to 20. The rotational force of the motor shaft 20C of the electric motor 20 is transmitted to the wheel 31 via the speed reducer 21. Then, the rotational force of the wheel 31 is transmitted to the striking portion 16, and the striking portion 16 operates in the second direction B2, that is, rises. When the striking portion 16 rises, the pressure in the accumulator chamber 17 rises. When the striking portion 16 reaches top dead center, all pinion pins 32 are released from the rack 35. Then, the striking portion 16 operates in the first direction B1 by the air pressure of the accumulator chamber 17, that is, descends. When the striking portion 16 descends, the driver blade 34 strikes the nail 47 supplied to the injection path 23A, and the nail 47 is driven into the mating material W1.

Further, after the nail 47 is driven into the mating material W1, the piston 33 collides with the bumper 36. That is, the striking portion 16 reaches the bottom dead center. The bumper 36 is elastically deformed by receiving a load in the direction along the center line A2, and the bumper 36 absorbs a part of the kinetic energy of the striking portion 16.

The control circuit 25 rotates the electric motor 20 even after the push lever 46 is separated from the mating material W1 by the reaction of the nail 47 being driven into the mating material W1. Therefore, the pinion pin 32 of the wheel 31 is engaged with the rack 35, and the striking portion 16 is raised from the bottom dead center. The control circuit 25 processes the signal of the striking portion detection sensor 42 to detect the position of the striking portion 16 in the direction along the center line A2, and determines whether or not the striking portion 16 has reached the standby position. do. The control circuit 25 stops the electric motor 20 when the striking portion 16 reaches the standby position.

The control circuit 25 can detect and store the number of times the striking unit 16 operates from the top dead center to the bottom dead center by processing the signal of the phase detection sensor 45 and the signal of the striking unit detection sensor 42. The control circuit 25 can store the usage history of the nail gun 11. The usage history includes the number of times the striking unit 16 operates from the top dead center to the bottom dead center after the previous supply of compressed air to the accumulator chamber 17, the number of nails 47 housed in the magazine 24, and the nail 47 is the injection path. Whether or not it is clogged with 23A. The control circuit 25 can perform blank hit prevention control. In the blank hit prevention control, when the number of nails 47 housed in the magazine 24 is less than a predetermined number, an operating force is applied to the trigger 49, and even if the push lever 46 is pressed against the mating material W1. It is a control for holding the stop of the electric motor 20.

The control circuit 25 can detect whether or not the nail 47 is clogged in the injection path 23A by processing the signal of the impact portion detection sensor 42 and the signal of the current value detection circuit 44. The current value when the nail 47 is clogged in the injection path 23A is higher than the current value when the nail 47 is not clogged in the injection path 23A. In the control circuit 25, when the striking portion 16 operates from the top dead center to the bottom dead center and then the striking portion 16 is stopped between the top dead center and the bottom dead center, the nail 47 is inserted in the injection path 23A. Judge that it is clogged.

The target striking force of the striking portion 16 differs depending on the model of the nailing machine 11. The model of the nailing machine 11 includes the hardness and material of the mating material W1 into which the nail 47 is driven, the length of the nail 47, the thickness of the nail 47, and the like. In the nail gun 11 of the present embodiment, the actual striking force applied to the nail 47 by the striking portion 16 is determined according to the maximum pressure of the accumulator chamber 17. The maximum pressure of the accumulator chamber 17 is the air pressure of the accumulator chamber 17 when the striking portion 16 is located at the top dead center. The maximum pressure of the accumulator chamber 17 depends on the initial pressure of the accumulator chamber 17, the pressure receiving area of the piston 33 in the plane perpendicular to the center line A1, and the stroke amount at which the striking portion 16 operates from the bottom dead center to the top dead center. It is decided. The initial pressure of the accumulator chamber 17 is the air pressure of the accumulator chamber 17 when the striking portion 16 is located at the bottom dead center. In the nail gun 11 of the present embodiment, the pressure receiving area of the piston 33 is fixed, and the stroke amount at which the striking portion 16 operates from the bottom dead center to the top dead center is fixed. Therefore, the nail gun 11 can adjust the actual striking force applied to the nail 47 by the striking portion 16 by adjusting the initial pressure of the accumulator chamber 17.

The operation of filling the accumulator chamber 17 with compressed air by the user is performed in a state where the compressor 12 is attached to the nail gun 11 and the battery pack 13 is attached to the compressor 12, as shown in FIG. The outline of the control for filling the accumulator chamber 17 with compressed air is as follows. The control circuit 63 controls to supply compressed air to the accumulator chamber 17 when the target pressure is higher than the actual pressure of the accumulator chamber 17. The control circuit 63 raises the striking portion 16 from the standby position and stops it at the bottom dead center before supplying the compressed air to the accumulator chamber 17. The control circuit 63 can set the target pressure according to the model of the nail gun 11.

An example in which the user adjusts the initial pressure of the accumulator chamber 17 of the nail gun 11 by using the compressor 12 of the present embodiment will be described with reference to the control example of FIG. The user attaches the mounting portion 56 of the battery pack 13 to the second mounting portion 67 of the compressor 12. Then, when the user operates the on switch, electric power is supplied from the battery pack 13 to the control circuit 63, and the control circuit 63 is activated.

The activated control circuit 63 starts the control example of FIG. In step S10, the control circuit 63 determines whether or not the first mounting portion 66 of the compressor 12 is connected to the mounting portion 30 of the nail gun 11. If the control circuit 63 determines No in step S10, the display 68 displays "Please connect the compressor to the nail gun" in step S11, and returns to step S10.

When the control circuit 63 determines Yes in step S10, the control circuit 63 determines the model of the nail gun 11 and reads the usage history of the nail gun 11 in step S12. The control circuit 63 can determine the model of the nail gun 11 by processing the signal of the model detection sensor 71 or processing the model information input to the display 68. The usage history of the nail gun 11 is, for example, the number of nails 47 housed in the magazine 24, whether or not the nails 47 are clogged in the injection path 23A, air leakage in the pressure accumulator chamber 17 due to a defective seal, and the like. For example, if the wear of the seal member 101 progresses, a seal defect occurs.

The control circuit 63 determines that the nail 47 is clogged with the injection path 23A when the striking portion 16 is stopped at a position different from the standby position or the bottom dead center. Further, the control circuit 63 can detect an air leak in the accumulator chamber 17 due to a defective seal from the relationship between the number of nails driven and the actual pressure in the accumulator chamber 17. Information indicating the relationship between the number of nails 47 driven and the actual pressure of the accumulator chamber 17 is stored in the storage unit 63A of the control circuit 63.

In step S13, the control circuit 63 determines whether or not the state of the nail gun 11 is a state in which compressed air can be supplied to the accumulator chamber 17. In the control circuit 63, the nail 47 does not remain in the magazine 24, the nail 47 is not clogged with the injection path 23A, there is no air leakage in the accumulator chamber 17 due to a defective seal, and the fitting 65 and the holder 38 are normal. When all four conditions of being connected to are satisfied, it is determined as Yes in step S13.

When the control circuit 63 determines Yes in step S13, the control circuit 63 sets the target pressure of the accumulator chamber 17 in step S14. The control circuit 63 sets the target pressure of the accumulator chamber 17 based on the model of the nail gun 11 or the information input by the user by operating the display 68. The control circuit 63 detects the actual pressure in the accumulator chamber 17 in step S15 following step S14. In step S16, the control circuit 63 determines "whether the target pressure is higher than the actual air pressure in the accumulator chamber".

If the control circuit 63 determines Yes in step S16, the control circuit 63 controls to supply compressed air to the accumulator chamber 17 in step S17. The control performed by the control circuit 63 in step S17 includes a first control and a second control. In the first control, the striking portion 16 stopped at the standby position is raised to the top dead center by rotating the electric motor 20, and then the striking portion 16 is operated from the top dead center to the bottom dead center. , The striking portion 16 is stopped at the bottom dead center.

The second control is to rotate the electric motor 59 to drive the compression unit 62, and supply the compressed air discharged from the compression chamber 84 to the accumulator chamber 17 via the passage 86, the passage 88, and the passage 104. be. The control circuit 63 controls the inverter circuit 61 to adjust the current value supplied to the coil of the stator 79, thereby adjusting the rotation speed of the motor shaft 80 of the electric motor 59, that is, the rotation speed and the motor. The rotational force of the shaft 80 is controlled.

Here, after the first control is performed, the control circuit 63 performs the second control without the user operating the start switch, and after the first control is performed, the user operates the start switch. Then, there is a second option in which the control circuit 63 performs the second control. The user can operate the display 68 to determine the first option and the second option in advance.

When the control circuit 63 performs the control example of FIG. 8, when the magazine 24 does not have the nail 47 and the nail 47 is not clogged in the injection path 23A, the striking portion 16 is lowered from the top dead center. The striking portion 16 does not strik the nail 47. Then, compressed air is supplied from the compressor 12 to the accumulator chamber 17 in a state where the striking portion 16 is stopped at the bottom dead center.

In step S18, the control circuit 63 determines "whether the target pressure and the actual pressure of the accumulator chamber 17 are equal to each other". "The target pressure is equal to the actual pressure of the accumulator chamber 17" means "the target pressure and the actual pressure of the accumulator chamber 17 are exactly the same" or "the actual pressure of the accumulator chamber 17 is near the target pressure". Either may be used. That is, "the target pressure and the actual pressure of the accumulator chamber 17 are equal" means that the target pressure and the actual pressure of the accumulator chamber 17 are completely the same, and the target pressure and the actual pressure of the accumulator chamber 17 are substantially the same. Any of them may be used. Since the actual pressure of the accumulator chamber 17 changes depending on the temperature condition, such control is performed. The control circuit 63 performs feedback control in steps S17 and S18 so that the actual pressure of the accumulator chamber 17 approaches the target pressure.

If the control circuit 63 determines No in step S18, the control circuit 63 proceeds to step S17 to continue the second control. When the control circuit 63 determines Yes in step S18, the electric motor 59 is stopped in step S19 to end the supply of compressed air to the accumulator chamber 17, and the display 68 displays "compressed air filling end". The display is displayed, and the control example of FIG. 8 ends.

If the control circuit 63 determines No in step S16, the display 68 displays "exhaust the compressed air in the accumulator chamber to the outside" in step S20, and the process proceeds to step S15. When the user visually observes "exhaust the compressed air in the accumulator chamber to the outside" displayed on the display 68, an operating force is applied to the shaft portion 93 of the exhaust valve 89. Then, the exhaust valve 89 connects the passage 88 and the external C1. Therefore, the compressed air in the accumulator chamber 17 is discharged to the outside C1 through the passage 104, the passage 88, and the exhaust passage 92, and the actual pressure in the accumulator chamber 17 decreases.

Further, in the control circuit 63, at the time of determination in step S13, when there is an air leak in the accumulator chamber 17 due to a sealing defect, when the nail 47 remains in the magazine 24, or when the nail 47 is clogged with the injection path 23A. In either case, it is determined as No in step S13. If there is an air leak in the accumulator chamber 17 due to a defective seal, the control circuit 63 determines No in step S13. When the nail 47 remains in the magazine 24, or when the nail 47 is clogged with the injection path 23A, when the striking portion 16 is lowered from the top dead center, the striking portion 16 strikes the nail 47, so that the control circuit 63 is determined to be No in step S13.

If the control circuit 63 determines No in step S13, the control circuit 63 proceeds to step S21 to prohibit the supply of compressed air to the accumulator chamber 17, displays "maintenance" on the display 68, and ends the control example of FIG. .. Specifically, on the display 68, "Please remove the nail from the magazine", "The nail is clogged at the injection part", "Replace the seal member", "Check the connection status between the connector and the holder". Please do it. "

When the user confirms the display of "maintenance", the user takes out the nail 47 from the magazine 24, removes the nail 47 stuck in the injection path 23A, replaces the seal member 101, and connects the fitting 65 and the holder. Work to normalize the connection state with 38 and the like. The control circuit 63 may display "error" instead of "maintenance" on the display 68.

When the compressor 12 of the present embodiment is used, the user himself / herself does not send the nail gun 11 to an external organization such as a manufacturer or a repair company, and the user himself / herself attaches the first mounting portion 66 of the compressor 12 to the mounting portion 30. The accumulator chamber 17 can be filled with compressed air by attaching the above. Therefore, it is possible to shorten the period during which the user cannot use the nail gun 11. Further, as shown in FIG. 3, it is also possible to directly attach and detach the battery pack 13 to the mounting portion 30 of the nail gun 11. Therefore, it is not necessary to provide a transformer in the compressor 12.
