Description

Driving tool

The present invention relates to an electro-pneumatic driving tool for driving a work such as a nail into a workpiece.

A conventional electro-pneumatic driving tool is described in, for example, Japanese Patent Publication No. 7-47270 (Patent Document 1). The driving tool described in Patent Document 1 includes a battery-driven electric motor and a compression device driven by the electric motor, and supplies compressed air generated by the compression device into a striking cylinder.

Japanese Patent Publication No. 7-47270

In view of the above problems, an object of the present invention is to provide a technique that contributes to avoidance of residual compressed air in a driving tool.

In order to achieve the above object, preferred embodiments of the driving tool according to the present invention include a cylinder, a piston, a battery, a motor driven by electric power supplied from the battery, and a volume change of the compression chamber driven by the motor. And compressed air generating means for generating compressed air. The piston includes a sliding portion that is slidably accommodated in the cylinder, and a long driving portion that is provided on the sliding portion and drives a stopper. The piston is linearly moved by the compressed air generated by the compressed air generating means, and the stopper is driven by the driving portion of the piston. The “driving tool” in the present invention typically corresponds to a nailing machine or a tucker, and the “stopper” is a straight bar having a pointed tip and is attached to the head. Widely includes those having or not having a shade and U-shaped staples.

According to a preferred embodiment of the driving tool according to the present invention, as a characteristic configuration, there is an atmosphere opening passage that communicates the compression chamber and the atmosphere, and the atmosphere opening passage can be switched between opening and closing of the atmosphere communication path. The air release valve is provided. The atmosphere release valve is preferably a solenoid valve.

According to the present invention, the air release valve is provided in the air release passage that communicates the compression chamber and the atmosphere, so that the compression chamber can be switched between the open state and the closed state with respect to the atmosphere. Therefore, the driving tool can be steadily operated in a state where the atmosphere release valve is switched to the closed side. The compressed air generating means is, for example, a compression cylinder provided separately from the cylinder, and an internal space (compression chamber) of the compression cylinder by being driven by a motor and sliding in the compression cylinder. And a compression piston that generates compressed air, and by supplying compressed air in the compression cylinder into the cylinder, the piston is moved linearly and a stopper is driven. When the stopper driving operation is completed, the compression piston then operates to increase the volume of the internal space of the compression cylinder. At that time, the stopper driving piston moves along with the increase in the volume of the internal space. It is returned to the initial position before the driving operation by the negative pressure generated in the internal space and the cylinder. For this reason, it is possible to reliably return the stopper driving piston to the initial position by setting the release valve to the open side after waiting for the stopper driving piston to return to the initial position. Is possible. In other words, during the steady operation of the driving tool, the air release valve functions as a member that keeps the normal cycle of the driving operation of the stopper every time the stopper is driven.

On the other hand, in a state where the air release valve is switched to the open side, the compression chamber can be opened to the atmosphere. For this reason, for example, by setting the air release valve to switch to the open side when the compressed air generating means stops in the middle of the compression operation, the motor is caused by residual compressed air in the compression chamber at the next start-up. It is possible to prevent an excessive load from acting on the motor and the like and to protect the motor and the like from the overload. When compressed air remains in the compression chamber, for example, the compressed air generating means includes a compression cylinder provided separately from the cylinder, and a compression piston that slides within the compression cylinder. When the open / close device for the compressed air supply path connecting the cylinder and the compression cylinder is opened, compressed air is supplied from the compression cylinder to the cylinder, causing an unexpected driving operation. There is a possibility that it will be carried out. According to the present invention, such an unexpected driving operation can be avoided.

According to the further form of the driving tool which concerns on this invention, it has a control member which controls a drive and a stop of a motor, and the internal mechanism defined by a battery, a motor, a compressed air production | generation means, a piston, and a control member is predetermined. The air release valve is switched when in the operating state. The “control member” in the present invention is typically a trigger that is pulled by a finger to drive the motor and a contact that is retracted in a direction opposite to the pressing direction by pressing the workpiece. In addition to operation members that can be operated by an operator such as an arm, widely includes members related to energization driving of the motor, such as a motor drive switch operated between an on position and an off position by the trigger and contact arm. . The “predetermined operation state” in the present invention typically means that when all of the internal mechanisms are in a steady operation state, and at least one of the internal mechanisms is in an unsteady operation state different from the steady operation state. Any of the operating states is suitably included.
According to the present invention, the air release valve can be switched when the internal mechanism is in a predetermined operation state.

According to the further form of the driving tool which concerns on this invention, it has a detection means which detects the operation state of an internal mechanism, The structure which switches an air release valve when the said detection means detects the predetermined operation state of an internal mechanism It is said.

According to the further form of the driving tool according to the present invention, the predetermined operation state is determined by the operation state of the control member that controls driving and stopping of the motor. Typically, this corresponds to the case where the operator stops the operation during the operation of the control member. When such an operating state is performed, the atmosphere release valve is switched to the open side, and the compressed air in the compression chamber is released to the atmosphere to protect the motor and the like from the overload caused by the residual compressed air, Unexpected driving of the tool can be avoided. In addition, the control member according to the present invention is preferably configured by a trigger that energizes the motor by a pulling operation by an operator and stops the motor by releasing the pulling operation.

The predetermined operating state of the internal mechanism according to the present invention can be set in various forms as described below, in addition to being determined by the operating state of the control member that controls the driving and stopping of the motor. The
One is determined by the operating state of the compressed air generating means. Typically, when the power transmission mechanism that transmits the rotation output of the motor to the compressed air generating means stops in the middle of operation (when the internal mechanism is in an unsteady operation state), or the compressed air generating means In the case of a reciprocating type composed of a compression cylinder and a compression piston, the crank mechanism that linearly moves the compression piston stops during the compression operation (when the internal mechanism is in an unsteady operation state). ) And when the compression piston returns to the initial position (when the internal mechanism is in a steady operation state).
The other is determined by the operating state of the piston that drives the stopper. Typically, when the piston stops in the middle of operation (when the internal mechanism is in an unsteady operation state), or when the piston returns to the initial position when one cycle of the driving operation is completed (When the internal mechanism is in a steady operation state) corresponds to this.
Still another is determined by the pressure value in the compression chamber. Typically, this is the case when the pressure in the compression chamber rises abnormally (when the internal mechanism is in an unsteady operation state).
In another case, if the compressed air generating means is composed of a compression cylinder provided separately from the cylinder and a compression piston sliding in the compression cylinder, the cylinder And the operating state of the switchgear provided in the compressed air supply path connecting the compression cylinder. Typically, this corresponds to the case where the opening / closing device does not perform the opening operation at the timing when the opening / closing device should originally perform the opening operation (when the internal mechanism is in an unsteady operation state).
The other is determined by the state of energy supply to the compressed air generating means. The energy referred to here is the rotational force output to the compressed air generating means by the motor to drive the compressed air generating means, and the electric power supplied from the battery to the motor to drive the motor. . Therefore, the predetermined operating state of the internal mechanism can be set as, for example, a current value or a voltage value related to driving of the motor, or a temperature value, and when these measured values exceed a predetermined set value ( The atmospheric release valve can be configured to switch to the open side when the internal mechanism is in an unsteady operation state.

According to the further form of the driving tool according to the present invention, the driving tool is determined by the correlation state of a plurality of elements among the predetermined operation states defined in claims 4 and 6-10. According to the present invention, it is possible to avoid a sensitive operation of the atmosphere release valve by switching the atmosphere release valve when a plurality of conditions are met.

According to the further form of the driving tool according to the present invention, the piston slides in the direction opposite to the driving direction of the stopper to generate compressed air in the internal space of the cylinder. According to the present invention, since the cylinder and the piston constituting the stopper driving mechanism are also used as the compressed air generating means, it is effective in reducing the overall driving tool.

According to the present invention, a technique that contributes to avoiding residual compressed air is provided in the driving tool.

(First embodiment of the present invention)
Hereinafter, a first embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to FIGS. This embodiment will be described using an electro-pneumatic nailing machine as an example of an electro-pneumatic driving tool. As shown in FIG. 1, the nailing machine 100 generally includes a main body 101 as a tool main body, a long handle 103 that is gripped by an operator, and a stopper that is driven into a workpiece. And a magazine 105 loaded with the nail n. The handle portion 103 protrudes from the side surface portion on one end side (the upper side in the drawing) of the main body portion 101 in the long axis direction (the vertical direction in FIGS. 1 to 5) toward the side (the right side in the drawing) intersecting the long axis direction. It is provided integrally in a state. A rechargeable battery pack 110 serving as a power source for the drive motor 111 is attached to the protruding end portion of the handle portion 103. 1 to 5 show a downward state of the nail driver 100, that is, a state in which the tip end portion (the lower end portion in the drawing) of the main body 101 is directed to the workpiece. Accordingly, the downward direction in FIGS. 1 to 5 is the nail n driving (launching) direction (major axis direction), which is the direction in which the driver 125 strikes the nail n. The battery pack 110 corresponds to the “battery” in the present invention.

The main body 101 is mainly composed of a main body housing 107 in which a striking cylinder 121 of the nail driving mechanism 120 and a compression cylinder 131 of the compression device 130 are integrally formed, and a motor housing 109 in which a drive motor 111 is accommodated. Is done. The motor housing 109 is disposed substantially parallel to the handle portion 103 at a front end side (lower end side) of the main body housing 107 at a predetermined interval, and one end side in the long axis direction is connected to the main body housing 107. The end side is connected to the protruding side end portion of the handle portion 103. The drive motor 111 corresponds to the “motor” in the present invention.

A driver guide 141 that constitutes an injection port for the nail n is disposed at the tip of the impact cylinder 121 in the main body housing 107 (downward in FIGS. 1 to 5). The magazine 105 is arranged on the foremost side of the main body 101 in a state of being close to the motor housing 109 and substantially parallel to the motor housing 109, the nail supply side tip is connected to the driver guide 141, and the other end is the motor housing. The other end of 109 is connected. Although not shown for convenience, the magazine 105 is provided with a pusher plate for pushing the nail n in the supply direction (leftward in FIGS. 1 to 5), and the nail n is attached to the driver guide 141 by this pusher plate. The driving passage 141a is configured to be supplied one by one from the direction intersecting the driving direction. For convenience of explanation, the front end side (lower side in the figure) of the main body 101 in the major axis direction is referred to as the front, and the opposite side is referred to as the rear.

The striking cylinder 121 of the nail driving mechanism 120 and the compression cylinder 131 of the compression device 130 are formed so that their major axis directions are parallel to each other. A striking piston 123 for striking the nail n is accommodated in the striking cylinder 121 so as to be slidable in the long axis direction. The striking cylinder 121 corresponds to a “cylinder” in the present invention. The striking piston 123 includes a piston main body 124 that is slidably accommodated in the striking cylinder 121, and a long driver for striking the nail n, which is integrally provided in the piston main body 124. 125, which moves linearly in the long axis direction of the hitting cylinder 121, and functions as an operating member that the driver 125 moves forward in the driving passage 141a of the driver guide 141 and drives the nail n. The striking piston 123 corresponds to the “piston” in the present invention, the piston main body portion 124 corresponds to the “sliding portion” in the present invention, and the driver 125 corresponds to the “driving portion” in the present invention. A nail driving mechanism 120 is configured by the hitting cylinder 121 and the hitting piston 123.

A compression piston 133 is accommodated in the compression cylinder 131 of the compression device 130 so as to be slidable in the long axis direction, and the compression piston 133 is driven from the drive motor 111 via the crank mechanism 115. The drive motor 111 is disposed in the motor housing 109 so that the rotation axis intersects the long axis direction of the compression cylinder 131. The rotation output of the drive motor 111 is appropriately decelerated by the gear reduction mechanism 113 and converted into a linear motion by a crank mechanism 115 as a motion conversion mechanism to reciprocate the compression piston 133 linearly. As a result, the volume of the compression chamber 131a, which is the internal space of the compression cylinder 131, changes, and the compression piston 133 moves to the rear side that decreases the compression chamber 131a, so that the air in the compression chamber 131a is compressed. That is, in the present embodiment, a reciprocating type compression device mainly composed of the compression cylinder 131, the compression piston 133, and the crank mechanism 115 is used as the compression device 130. The compression chamber 131a corresponds to the “compression chamber” in the present invention, and the compression device 130 corresponds to the “compressed air generating means” in the present invention.

The crank mechanism 115 has a crank shaft 115a that is decelerated and rotated by the gear reduction mechanism 113, an eccentric pin 115b provided at a position that is eccentric from the rotation center of the crank shaft 115a, and one end that is rotatable relative to the eccentric pin 115b. The other end is connected to the compression piston 133 and is connected to the compression piston 133 so as to be relatively rotatable. The connection rod 115c is housed inside the main body housing 107 in the front region of the compression cylinder 131.

The drive motor 111 includes a trigger 103a provided on the handle portion 103 so as to be rotatable about a support shaft 103c and a contact arm provided in a tip region of the main body 101 (in this embodiment, the driver guide 141 is a contact). The driving and stopping are controlled by the arm function). That is, a trigger 103a that can be operated with fingers is put into the handle portion 103, and an on state in which the drive motor 111 is energized and driven when the trigger 103a is pulled and the pulling operation is released and the drive motor is released. A trigger switch 103b for driving the motor that switches to an off state that stops 111 is installed.

On the other hand, a driver guide 141 that also serves as a contact arm (in the following description, the contact arm 141 is referred to only when the driver guide 141 functions as a contact arm) is attached to be movable in the major axis direction (striking direction) of the nail n. For the sake of convenience, it is biased so as to protrude toward the tip side by a spring (not shown). When the contact arm 141 is in the protruding position, the contact arm switch for driving the motor (not shown) is turned off for convenience, and the contact arm switch is turned on when the contact arm 141 is moved to the main body housing 107 side. It is said. The drive motor 111 is energized when both the trigger switch 103b and the contact arm switch are switched on, and is stopped when one or both are switched off. The trigger 103a and the contact arm 141 correspond to the “control member” in the present invention.

The main body housing 107 is provided with a communication path 135 that allows the compression chamber 131a of the compression cylinder 131 and the inside of the impact cylinder 121 to communicate with each other, and a main valve 137 that opens and closes the communication path 135. The communication path 135 corresponds to the “compressed air supply path” in the present invention, and the main valve 137 corresponds to the “opening / closing device” in the present invention. As shown in FIG. 1, in the nail driver 100, the striking piston 123 is moved to the rearmost position (the upper end position in the figure), and the compression piston 133 is moved to the frontmost end position (the bottom dead center). The state is defined as the initial position. The main valve 137 is provided on the cylinder head side of the compression cylinder 131 and is constituted by a normally closed type solenoid valve as an electrically driven valve that closes when no power is supplied. The compression piston 133 is moved to the end position. The communication path 135 is opened in the vicinity of the moved top dead center. Therefore, when the main valve 137 opens the communication path 135, the compressed air in the compression chamber 131a compressed by the compression piston 133 is supplied to the striking cylinder 121, and the striking piston 123 is moved by the supplied compressed air. The nail n is hit by the driver 125, and the nail n is driven into the workpiece.

The hitting cylinder 121 is formed with an escape hole 127 with a check valve 127a for releasing the compressed air in the hitting cylinder 121 into the atmosphere at the end of the nail driving operation or just before the end of the nail driving operation. When the striking piston 123 is moved to the foremost position (see the position shown in FIG. 3), the escape hole 127 passes through the inside of the striking cylinder 121 through the passage of the piston main body 124 of the striking piston 123. It is provided at a position where it can communicate with the atmosphere. In other words, the configuration is such that the atmosphere communicates with the inside of the striking cylinder 121 at the same time as the nail driving by the driver 125 is completed, whereby the compressed air in the striking cylinder 121 is released into the atmosphere at the same time as the striking is completed. The check valve 127 a is configured by a leaf spring arranged so as to close the escape hole 127 outside the impact cylinder 121, and air in the atmosphere flows into the impact cylinder 121 from the escape hole 127. (Backflow) is regulated.

When the compression piston 133 after the compression operation moves forward, the volume of the compression chamber 131a is increased, whereby the compression chamber 131a and the inside of the impact cylinder 121 become negative pressure, and the negative pressure causes the impact piston 123 to move. It is set as the structure moved to back (refer FIG. 4). Further, when the compression piston 133 is placed at the foremost end position (bottom dead center) as an initial position, the compression cylinder 133 passes through the piston main body 133a of the compression piston 133 so that the compression cylinder 133 passes through the atmosphere. An outside air supply port 139 that communicates with the compression chamber 131a is provided. The main valve 137 is configured to close the communication passage 135 when the piston main body 133a of the compression piston 133 passes the outside air supply port 139 and is placed at the foremost end position (bottom dead center). . Thus, the nail driving operation by the nail driver 100 according to the present embodiment is configured such that when the compression piston 133 reciprocates once, the driver 125 of the driving piston 123 performs one nail driving operation. Yes.

Next, the operation and usage of the nailing machine 100 configured as described above will be described. In the initial state shown in FIG. 1, when the contact arm 141 is pressed against the workpiece and the contact arm switch is turned on, and the trigger 103a is pulled and the trigger switch 103b is turned on, the drive motor 111 is energized. As a result, the crank mechanism 115 is driven via the gear reduction mechanism 113, the compression piston 133 starts moving backward, and the communication between the compression chamber 131a and the atmosphere by the outside air supply port 139 is blocked. At this time, the main valve 137 closes the communication path 135, so that the volume of the compression chamber 131a is reduced and the air trapped in the compression chamber 131a is compressed. The state during compression is shown in FIG.

The main valve 137 is energized to open the communication path 135 near the top dead center of the compression operation when the compression piston 133 approaches the rear end position. For this reason, the compressed air in the compression chamber 131a is supplied into the striking cylinder 121 through the communication path 135, and the striking piston 123 is moved forward by the compressed air. Then, the driver 125 of the hammering piston 123 moved forward strikes the nail n waiting in the hammering passage 141a of the driver guide 141, and hammers it into the workpiece. This state is shown in FIG.

When the piston main body 124 of the striking piston 123 passes through the escape hole 127, the compressed air in the striking cylinder 121 is released into the atmosphere through the relief hole 127. At the same time, the compression piston 133 at the rearmost position changes direction and is moved forward. Due to this forward movement, the volume of the compression chamber 131 a is increased and the compression chamber 131 a is made negative, and the negative pressure acts on the striking piston 123 through the communication passage 135 and the striking cylinder 121. As a result, the striking piston 123 is sucked and returned to the rear position before striking. This returning halfway state is shown in FIG.

When the compression piston 133 returns to the position before the compression start (bottom dead center) as the initial position, the outside air supply port 139 is opened, and air in the atmosphere is supplied into the compression chamber 131a. Further, when the compression piston 133 returns to the position before the compression start, even if the trigger switch 103b and the contact arm switch are kept on, the power supply to the drive motor 111 is cut off and the drive motor 111 is stopped simultaneously. The power supply to the main valve 137 is cut off, and the main valve 137 closes the communication path 135. Thus, one cycle of the nailing operation is completed.

The illustration of the interruption of energization to the drive motor 111 and the energization and interruption of the main valve 137 are omitted for the sake of convenience. , And based on the detection signal, it is configured to be controlled by a control device (controller) provided to control at least the drive motor 111.

As described above, the electro-pneumatic nailer 100 according to the present embodiment drives the compression device 130 using the drive motor 111 that is driven by the battery pack 110 as a power source, and is generated by the compression device 130. Using the compressed air, the striking piston 123 is moved linearly and the nail n is driven by the driver 125. For this reason, both a power cord for supplying external power to the nailing machine and an air hose for supplying compressed air from an external compressed air source to the nailing machine are unnecessary. Thus, a nailing machine with high usability is provided.

By the way, the nailing machine 100 configured and acting as described above includes the trigger 103a, the drive motor 111, the compression device 130, the nail driving mechanism 120, and the like as functional members related to the nail driving operation. It is conceivable that at least one of the internal mechanisms of the nailing machine 100 becomes an operation state deviating from a range permitted as a normal operation state (hereinafter, this operation state is referred to as an unsteady operation state). As an example, for example, during the compression of the compression device 130, it is conceivable that the operator releases the pressing operation of the contact arm 141 against the workpiece or cancels the pulling operation of the trigger 103a. That is, the nailing operation may be stopped halfway. In this case, the drive motor 111 stops in a state where the compressed air is stored in the compression chamber 131a. In this state, if the main valve 137 is inadvertently opened for some reason, the compressed air in the compression chamber 131a is supplied to the striking cylinder 121, and an unexpected striking operation may be performed. If the main valve 137 is not opened, an excessive load may be applied to the drive motor 111 or the compressor 130 due to the compressed air remaining in the compression chamber 131a at the next start-up.

Therefore, in order to solve the above-described problems, in the present embodiment, an air release valve 151 that can release the pressure of the compression chamber 131a of the compression device 130 to the atmosphere is provided. When the operator cancels the pulling operation of the trigger 103a during the compression of the compression device 130 or when the pressing operation of the contact arm 141 against the workpiece is released, the atmosphere release valve 151 is opened to release the atmosphere. The pressure in the compression chamber 131a is released to the atmosphere through the passage 153, thereby blocking energy transmission to the striking piston 123. The atmosphere release valve 151 corresponds to the “atmosphere release valve” in the present invention, the atmosphere release passage 153 corresponds to the “atmosphere release path” in the present invention, and the atmosphere release device is configured by the atmosphere release valve 151 and the atmosphere release passage 153. Composed. Further, when the operator cancels the pulling operation of the trigger 103a during the compression of the compression device 130 or when the pressing operation of the contact arm 141 against the workpiece is canceled, the “predetermined operation of the internal mechanism” according to the present invention. Corresponds to "state".

As shown in FIGS. 1 to 5, at the rear end (head side) of the compression cylinder 131, an air release passage 153 for releasing the pressure in the compression chamber 131a to the atmosphere, and the atmosphere release passage 153 are opened and opened. An air release valve 151 that closes is provided. The atmosphere release valve 151 is configured by a normally open type solenoid valve as an electrically driven valve that opens the atmosphere release passage 153 when not energized, and is configured to close the atmosphere release passage 153 when energized.

In the present embodiment, when the trigger 103a is pulled and the trigger switch 103b is turned on and the contact arm 141 is pressed against the workpiece and the contact arm switch is turned on (drive motor 111). When the air release valve 151 is energized, the air release valve 151 is turned on, and when either the trigger switch 103b or the contact arm switch is turned off, the air release valve 151 is turned off. It is configured as follows. The trigger 103a, the trigger switch 103b, the contact arm 141, and the contact arm switch correspond to the “control member” in the present invention.

This embodiment is configured as described above. Therefore, when the operator pushes the contact arm 141 against the workpiece and pulls the trigger 103a so as to perform the nailing operation, both the contact arm switch and the trigger switch 103b are turned on. For this reason, when the atmosphere release valve 151 is energized, the atmosphere release valve 151 is operated to the closed side, and the atmosphere release passage 153 is closed. At this time, as described above, since both the contact arm switch and the trigger switch 103b are turned on, the drive motor 111 is energized, so that a series of nailing operations are performed via the compression device 130 and the nail driving mechanism 120. Will be carried out.

On the other hand, when the operator cancels the pulling operation of the trigger 103a during the operation, or cancels the pressing operation of the contact arm 141 against the workpiece, the trigger switch 103b or the contact arm switch is turned off, and the drive motor 111 is stopped. Therefore, normally, the compressed air remains stored in the compression chamber 131a of the compressor 130. However, according to the present embodiment, when the trigger switch 103b or the contact arm switch is turned off, the atmosphere release valve 151 is de-energized and the atmosphere release valve 151 is actuated to the open side (by the built-in spring). Then, the air opening passage 153 is opened. This state is shown in FIG. That is, the atmosphere release valve 151 is switched to the open side in conjunction with the operation release operation of the trigger 103a or the contact arm 141. For this reason, the compressed air in the compression chamber 131a is released to the atmosphere, and energy transmission from the compression device 130 to the nail driving mechanism 120 is interrupted. Therefore, even when the main valve 137 is opened while the compression device 130 is stopped in the middle of compression, the nailing operation by the driver 125 is not performed. That is, according to the present embodiment, by operating the air release valve 151 to the open side, the driving operation of the nail n can be disabled and the unexpected driving operation of the nail n can be prevented. In addition, an excessive load is not applied to the drive motor 111 or the compressor 130 due to the compressed air remaining in the compression chamber 131a at the next start-up, and the drive motor 111 or the compressor 130 is overloaded. Can be protected from.

In the present embodiment, when the nail driving is finished, when the position detection sensor appropriately detects that the striking piston 123 has returned to the initial position before the nail driving operation, the control device is based on the detection signal. The (controller) is configured to switch the atmosphere release valve 151 to the open side. As described above, the configuration is such that the atmospheric release valve 151 is switched to the open side after waiting for the impact piston 123 to return to the initial position, so that the compression chamber 131a and the impact chamber until the impact piston 123 returns to the initial position. The negative pressure state in the cylinder 121 is reliably maintained. That is, in the steady operation state, the air release valve 151 functions as a member that keeps the normal cycle of the nail driving operation. At this time, the switching to the open side according to the command of the controller of the atmosphere release valve 151 is triggered by the pulling operation of the trigger 103a by the operator and the pressing operation of the contact arm 141 against the workpiece. The switch 103b and the contact arm 141 are configured to be performed even when both are on.

FIG. 6 shows a modification of the first embodiment. In this modification, an air release valve 151 is provided on the cylinder head side of the hammering cylinder 121 in the nail driving mechanism 120. An air release passage 153 that connects the communication passage 135 and the atmosphere is set in the middle of the air flow direction of the communication passage 135 that connects the compression chamber 131a and the inside of the blow cylinder 121, and the air release passage 153 is opened to the atmosphere. The valve 151 is opened and closed. The air release valve 151 is configured as a normally open type solenoid valve. Further, when the atmosphere release valve 151 is operated to the opening side, the main valve 137 is also configured to be operated to the opening side. Note that configurations other than those described above are configured in the same manner as in the above-described embodiment.

Therefore, according to this modification, when the operator cancels the pulling operation of the trigger 103a during the operation, or when the pressing operation of the contact arm 141 against the workpiece is released, the main valve 137 is opened. The air release valve 151 is operated on the open side to open the air release passage 153. This state is shown in FIG. For this reason, the compression chamber 131a and the inside of the hammering cylinder 121 are both communicated with the atmosphere, the energy transfer between the compression device 130 and the nail driving mechanism 120 is cut off, and the driver 125 unexpectedly drives the nail n. Can be prevented.

(Second embodiment of the present invention)
Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. The present embodiment is a modification of compressed air generating means that is generated to drive the striking piston 123, and the configuration other than this point is configured in the same manner as in the first embodiment described above. For this reason, the compressed air generating means and related matters will be mainly described, and the other components are denoted by the same reference numerals as those used in the first embodiment, and the description thereof is omitted or simplified.

As shown in FIGS. 7 to 9, the driving mechanism 120 according to the present embodiment is configured such that the striking piston 123 is moved to a nail via a cylindrical moving body 167 driven by the drive motor 111 (in this embodiment, for convenience. By moving in the opposite direction (rearward) of the driving direction (not shown), the internal space of the striking cylinder 121, that is, the volume in the cylinder chamber 122 is reduced, and the air in the cylinder chamber 122 is compressed. It is supposed to be configured. That is, in the present embodiment, the striking cylinder 121 and the striking piston 123 that slides in the striking cylinder 121 also serve as compressed air generating means. The cylinder chamber 122 of the striking cylinder 121 corresponds to the “compression chamber” in the present invention. The cylindrical moving body 167 is driven by a crank mechanism 181 described later. In the following description, the movement of each component member in the direction opposite to the nail driving direction is referred to as “move backward”, and the movement in the opposite direction is referred to as “move forward”.

The striking piston 123 is provided integrally with the piston main body 124 slidably accommodated in the striking cylinder 121 and the axial center of the piston main body 124, and is a long length for striking a nail. A cylindrical piston provided with a cylindrical driver 125 and a substantially cylindrical cylindrical portion 126 extending from the peripheral edge of the piston main body 124 to the distal end side in the long axis direction of the main body 101 (driver guide side). Has been.

A cylindrical moving body 167 for moving the striking piston 123 to the side of reducing the volume of the cylinder chamber 122, that is, rearward, is disposed outside the striking cylinder 121. The cylindrical moving body 167 constitutes an “intermediate body”. The cylindrical moving body 167 is a substantially cylindrical member that is fitted to the outside of the striking cylinder 121 so as to be movable in the long axis direction, and passes through the outside of the cylindrical portion 126 of the striking piston 123. It extends to the long-axis direction front end side. A piston receiving portion 168 having a radial plane that intersects the major axis direction is formed at the extending end portion (front end portion) of the cylindrical moving body 167, and the piston receiving portion 168 has an impact piston 123. The end portion of the cylindrical portion 126 is in contact. For this reason, when the cylindrical moving body 167 is linearly moved to the rear side of the striking cylinder 121, the striking piston 123 moves together with the cylindrical moving body 167 to reduce the volume of the cylinder chamber 122. The air in the chamber 122 is compressed.

In addition, on the outside of the cylindrical portion 126 of the striking piston 123, one end abuts on the front end of the striking cylinder 121 and the other end abuts on a spring receiving portion 126a formed on the outer periphery of the front end of the cylindrical portion 126. One compression coil spring 165 is arranged. Accordingly, the striking piston 123 is constantly urged toward the front end side in the long axis direction of the main body 101 by the first compression coil spring 165, so that the cylindrical portion 126 contacts the piston receiving portion 168 of the cylindrical moving body 167. The contact state is stable. The rearward movement of the striking piston 123 is performed against the urging force of the first compression coil spring 165.

In addition, on the rear side outside the striking cylinder 121, one end abuts on a spring receiving portion 121a formed on the rear part of the striking cylinder 121, and the other end abuts on the rear end portion of the cylindrical moving body 167. Two compression coil springs 169 are arranged. For this reason, the cylindrical moving body 167 is always urged by the second compression coil spring 169 toward the distal end side in the long axis direction of the main body 101, and the wall surface in the direction in which the piston receiving portion 168 intersects the long axis direction of the main body housing 107. It is held at a position in contact with 107a. This position is set as the initial position of the cylindrical moving body 167. The rearward movement of the cylindrical moving body 167 is performed against the urging force of the second compression coil spring 169.

A stopper member 171 and a buffer material 172 that define the driving position of the striking piston 123 are disposed in the cylindrical portion 126 of the striking piston 123. Although not shown for convenience, the stopper member 171 is connected to the striking cylinder 121 or the housing body 107. For this reason, when the impact piston 123 moves, the cylindrical portion 126 of the impact piston 123 interferes with a portion connecting the stopper member 171 and the impact cylinder 121 or the housing body 107. A plurality of interference avoiding grooves 126b extending in a predetermined length in the major axis direction are formed in the circumferential direction. The driver 125 of the striking piston 123 extends to the driver guide 141 side through a through hole 168a formed in the piston receiving portion 168 of the cylindrical moving body 167.

Next, the crank mechanism 181 that moves the cylindrical moving body 167 linearly will be described. The crank mechanism 181 is rotated at a reduced speed by the gear reduction mechanism 183 (having a gear engaged with and engaged with the final gear of the gear reduction mechanism 183), and two crank plates 187 attached to the crank plate 187. The eccentric pins 189 a and 189 b are configured to be accommodated in the main body housing 107.

The crank plate 187 is disposed so as to face the outer surface of the cylindrical moving body 167 and is supported by a bearing 185 so as to be rotatable about an axis in a direction intersecting with the major axis direction of the striking cylinder 121. The two eccentric pins 189a and 189b are attached to two sides of the crank plate 187 facing the cylindrical moving body 167 at a predetermined angle in the circumferential direction on the same circumference that is a predetermined distance away from the center of rotation. And projecting parallel to each other toward the outer surface of the cylindrical moving body 167. The protruding height of one eccentric pin 189a is higher than the protruding height of the other eccentric pin 189b. Hereinafter, one eccentric pin 189a is referred to as a “high eccentric pin”, and the other eccentric pin 189b is referred to as a “low eccentric pin”.

In the outer surface of the cylindrical moving body 167, in an area facing the crank plate 187, an engagement projecting in a direction intersecting the major axis direction at two positions spaced apart in the major axis direction of the impact cylinder 121 Protrusions 191a and 191b are formed. The protrusion height of one engagement protrusion 191a is higher than the protrusion height of the other engagement protrusion 191b. Hereinafter, one engagement protrusion 191a is referred to as “high engagement protrusion”, and the other engagement protrusion 191b is referred to as “low engagement protrusion”. Accordingly, the low eccentric pin 189b is configured to engage with the high engagement protrusion 191a but not to the low engagement protrusion 191b. Only the high eccentric pin 189a is engaged with the low engagement protrusion 191b.

According to such a configuration, the cylindrical moving body 167 is moved rearward by the backward moving components of the eccentric pins 189a and 189b accompanying the rotation of the crank plate 187. The state of this movement is shown in FIG. 11, and the cylindrical moving body 167 moves in the order of (A) (B) (C) (D) (E). 11 indicates the revolution trajectory of the eccentric pins 189a and 189b rotating around the rotation center of the crank plate 187, and the illustration of the crank plate 187 is omitted in FIG. When the crank plate 187 rotates, the low eccentric pin 189b first engages with the high engagement protrusion 191a and moves rearward, and the high eccentric pin 189a moves to the lowermost position until the low eccentric pin 189b moves rearward most. It engages with the mating protrusion 191b and moves backward. Therefore, when the high eccentric pin 189a moves most rearward, the cylindrical moving body 167 is moved from the frontmost end position to the rearmost end position.

As described above, when the crank plate 187 makes one rotation, the high engagement protrusion 191a is moved rearward by the low eccentric pin 189b, and the low engagement protrusion 191b is moved rearward by the high eccentricity pin 189a. Even with the crank plate 187 having a relatively small diameter, the stroke amount S of the cylindrical moving body 167 can be increased. The details of the mechanism for moving the cylindrical moving body 167 using such two eccentric pins 189a and 189b are described in Japanese Patent No. 3676879.

In the present embodiment, an air release passage 153 is set on the cylinder head side of the impact cylinder 121, an air release valve 151 is provided in the air release passage 153, and the air release passage 153 is opened and closed by the air release valve 151. It is configured to be closed. As in the case of the first embodiment, the air release valve 151 is configured as a normally open type solenoid valve, the trigger 103a is pulled and the trigger switch 103b is turned on, and the contact arm 141 is covered. When the contact arm switch is turned on by being pressed against the workpiece (when the drive motor 111 is energized), either the trigger switch 103b or the contact arm switch is turned off. Is configured to be in a non-energized state.

The nail driver 100 according to the present embodiment is configured as described above. Therefore, when nailing is performed, when the contact arm 141 is pressed against the workpiece and the trigger 103a is pulled, both the contact arm and the trigger switch 103b are turned on. For this reason, when the atmosphere release valve 151 is energized, the atmosphere release valve 151 is operated to the closed side, and the atmosphere release passage 153 is closed. At the same time, the drive motor 111 is energized, whereby the crank mechanism 181 is driven via the gear reduction mechanism 183, and the cylindrical moving body 167 is moved rearward. Accordingly, the striking piston 123 in which the end of the cylindrical portion 126 is in contact with the piston receiving portion 168 of the cylindrical moving body 167 is moved rearward. This state is shown in FIG.

As the impact piston 123 moves rearward, the volume of the cylinder chamber 122 of the impact cylinder 121 is reduced, and the air in the cylinder chamber 122 is compressed. As shown in FIG. 11E, when the highly eccentric pin 189a of the crank plate 187 reaches the rearmost position (top dead center), the cylindrical moving body 167 and the striking piston 123 reach top dead center. As a result, compressed air having a predetermined pressure is generated in the cylinder chamber 122. When the high eccentric pin 189 a is disengaged from the low engagement protrusion 191 b of the cylindrical moving body 167, the striking piston 123 is moved forward together with the cylindrical moving body 167 by the compressed air in the cylinder chamber 122. The driver 125 of the hammering piston 123 moved forward can hit the nail waiting in the driving passage 141a of the driver guide 141 and can be driven into the workpiece. After the nail driving operation, the striking piston 123 and the cylindrical moving body 167 are stopped at a position (initial position) where the piston main body 124 of the striking piston 123 is in contact with the buffer material 172.

As shown in FIG. 11E, when the high eccentric pin 189a is disengaged from the low engagement protrusion 191b of the cylindrical moving body 167, the low eccentric pin 189b is disengaged from the moving region of the engagement protrusions 191a and 191b. The cylindrical moving body 167 is not hindered from moving forward. That is, as shown in FIG. 11, the engagement protrusions 191a and 191b of the cylindrical moving body 167 are eccentric pins 189a in the rotation region of the eccentric pins 189a and 189b that rotate (revolve) around the rotation axis of the crank plate 187. , 189b are arranged in a region moving rearward (the right half of FIG. 11). For this reason, the forward movement of the cylindrical moving body 167 and the striking piston 123 by the compressed air is located in a region where both the two eccentric pins 189a and 189b move forward (the left half in FIG. 11). Carried out in between.

On the other hand, when the operator cancels the pulling operation of the trigger 103a during the operation, or cancels the pressing operation of the contact arm 141 against the workpiece, the trigger switch 103b or the contact arm switch is turned off, and the drive motor 111 is stopped. Therefore, under normal circumstances, the compressed air remains stored in the cylinder chamber 122 of the striking cylinder 121. However, according to the present embodiment, when the trigger switch 103b or the contact arm switch is turned off, the atmosphere release valve 151 is de-energized and the atmosphere release valve 151 is actuated to the open side (by the built-in spring). Then, the air opening passage 153 is opened. This state is shown in FIG. That is, the atmosphere release valve 151 is switched to the open side in conjunction with the operation release operation of the trigger 103a or the contact arm 141. For this reason, the compressed air in the cylinder chamber 122 is released to the atmosphere, and energy transmission from the compression mechanism to the nail driving mechanism 120 is interrupted. That is, according to the present embodiment, similarly to the first embodiment, the nail driving operation can be disabled and the unexpected nail driving operation can be prevented by operating the air release valve 151 to the open side. it can. In addition, the drive motor 111 can be protected from overload without causing an excessive load to act on the drive motor 111 due to the compressed air remaining in the cylinder chamber 122 at the next start-up.

In the present embodiment, the handle portion 103 is provided with an atmosphere release valve switch 156 for manually operating the atmosphere release valve 151 to the open side. That is, for some reason, the striking piston 123 stops in the course of compressing the air in the cylinder chamber 122 or in the middle of the nail driving operation, and the energized state of the air release valve 151 is maintained in the stopped state. Troubles such as being in a standing state are conceivable. Therefore, in the present embodiment, an atmospheric release valve switch 156 for manual operation is provided, and when the above trouble occurs, the atmospheric release valve switch 156 is operated to cut off the energization to the atmospheric release valve 151 and the cylinder. The configuration is such that the compressed air in the chamber 122 can be released to the atmosphere, and the above-described trouble can be dealt with after the striking piston 123 does not operate unexpectedly by the compressed air.

Next, a modified example relating to “a predetermined operating state of the internal mechanism, in other words, an unsteady operating state” that defines a condition for switching the air release valve 151 to the open side will be described.

[Modification 1]

It is determined by the operating state. Specifically, when either the trigger 103a or the contact arm 141 is unexpectedly locked at the position where the switch is turned on and cannot be returned to the initial position, or the trigger 103a or the contact arm 141 is returned. Nevertheless, the trigger 103a or the contact arm 141 is set to be in an unsteady operation state when the on state of the switch operated by them remains maintained.

For example, the operation state of the striking piston 123 is determined. Specifically, when the power transmission mechanism constituted by the gear reduction mechanisms 113 and 183 that transmit the rotation output of the drive motor 111 to the crank mechanisms 115 and 181 or when the crank mechanisms 115 and 183 are stopped during the operation, the compression is performed.

It is determined by the pressure value. Specifically, when the pressure in the compression chamber 131a or the cylinder chamber 122 abnormally increases and the increased pressure reaches or exceeds a predetermined set pressure, the pressure in the compression chamber 131a or the cylinder chamber 122 is increased. Set to be in an unsteady state.

Specifically, the main valve 137 is set to be inoperative when the main valve 137 does not perform the opening operation at a timing at which the main valve 137 should originally perform the opening operation (a state where the compression piston 133 approaches the bottom dead center). And the detection apparatus which detects this is provided, and it is set as the structure which switches the air release valve 151 to the open side by a control apparatus based on the detection of the said detection apparatus.

[Modification 5]

Specifically, when the temperature value of the compressor 130, the striking cylinder 121, the striking piston 123, the drive motor 111, or the battery pack 110 among the internal mechanisms becomes abnormally high, the compressor 130, the striking cylinder 121, the striking piston 123, the drive motor 111, or the battery pack 110 is set in an abnormal state. And the detection apparatus which detects this is provided, and it is set as the structure which switches the air release valve 151 to the open side by a control apparatus based on the detection of the said detection apparatus. The temperature values of the compressor 130, the drive motor 111, or the battery pack 110 correspond to the “energy supply state” in the present invention.

[Modification 6]
In modification 6, although illustration is omitted for convenience, the unsteady operation state of the internal mechanism is determined by the current value or voltage value of the internal mechanism. Specifically, when the current value or voltage value supplied from the battery pack 110 to the drive motor 111 shows an abnormal value exceeding a predetermined set value, the battery pack 110 or the drive motor 111 Set to be in an abnormal state. And the detection apparatus which detects this is provided, and it is set as the structure which switches the air release valve 151 to the open side by a control apparatus based on the detection of the said detection apparatus.
