Abstract
A driving tool is provided with a driver for driving out a fastener from a nozzle, a balancer, and a balancer biasing member for biasing the balancer in a direction away from the nozzle. The balancer moves in the direction away from the nozzle by a biasing force of the balancer biasing member when the driver moves toward the nozzle.
Claims4
A driving tool comprising:
- a driver provided to be slidable toward a nozzle formed in a leading end of the tool and adapted to drive out a fastener from the nozzle;
- a balancer provided to be slidable with respect to a housing of the tool;
- a balancer biasing member adapted to bias the balancer in a direction away from the nozzle;
- and
- a biasing member adapted to bias the driver toward the nozzle,
- wherein when the biasing member is compressed, the balancer biasing member is compressed, thereby the biasing member stores a biasing force for biasing the driver, and the balancer biasing member stores a biasing force for biasing the balancer,
- wherein after the driver is released toward the nozzle, the balancer biasing member is adapted to bias the balancer independent of the biasing member biasing the driver, and
- the balancer is configured to absorb a reaction on driving by a movement of the balancer due to the biasing force of the balancer biasing member.
