Abstract
An anchoring tool includes a driving member defining a striking axis and a driving actuator configured to actuate the driving member along the striking axis to drive a first fastener into a workpiece. The anchoring tool further includes a bending mechanism having a first deforming member configured to deform the first fastener at least partially out of the striking axis.
Claims13
An anchoring tool comprising:
- a driving member defining a striking axis;
- a driving actuator configured to actuate the driving member along the striking axis to drive a first fastener into a workpiece;
- and
- a bending mechanism comprising a first deforming member configured to deform the first fastener at least partially out of the striking axis,
- wherein the bending mechanism further comprises an actuator configured to actuate the first deforming member to deform the first fastener,
- wherein the first deforming member is configured to impinge on the first fastener when the first fastener is aligned with the striking axis so as to deform the first fastener partially out of the striking axis, and
- wherein the actuator includes a manually-actuated lever that is pivotable about a fulcrum pin.
