Abstract
Electrically powered fastening devices configured to drive staples suited to multiple applications. The fastening device includes an adjustable feeder and depth gauge, a hammer device with a mechanism for translating rotary power to linear striking force, and a staple guide configured to drive staples with selected, specialized profiles and configured with inner radii sized and shaped to conform to particular wire and sheathing diameters.
Claims20
A powered fastening device comprising:
- a housing;
- a fastener drive assembly carried in the housing to drive a fastener into a work surface along a drive axis;
- a drive motor carried in the housing and operably connected to the fastener drive assembly to actuate the fastener drive assembly;
- a feeder assembly configured to carry a plurality of fasteners and to sequentially position each fastener of the plurality of fasteners relative to the fastener drive assembly to be driven by the fastener drive assembly into a work surface, the feeder assembly mounted to the housing to translate along the drive axis relative to the fastener drive assembly;
- and
- an adjustable depth selector carried between the housing and the feeder assembly to selectively adjust an allowable range of motion between the feeder assembly and the fastener drive assembly along the drive axis to control how deep the fastener in the feeder assembly can be driven into the work surface by the fastener drive assembly.

A powered fastening device comprising:
- a housing;
- a drive pin mounted to translate relative to the housing to repeatedly strike a fastener to drive the fastener into a work surface;
- a drive motor carried in the housing and operably connected to the drive pin to actuate the drive pin to repeatedly strike the fastener to drive the fastener into the work surface;
- a feeder assembly configured to carry a plurality of fasteners and to sequentially position each fastener of the plurality of fasteners relative to the drive pin to be driven by the drive pin into the work surface, the feeder assembly mounted to the housing to translate along the drive axis relative to the drive pin as the fastener is driven into the work surface;
- and
- an adjustable depth selector carried between the housing and the feeder assembly to selectively adjust an allowable range of motion between the feeder assembly and the drive pin along the drive axis to control how deep the fastener in the feeder assembly can be driven into the work surface by the drive pin.
