    Abstract: A powered fastener driver includes a housing, a nosepiece having a fastener driver channel from which fasteners are discharged into a workpiece, a driver blade, a workpiece contact element, and a pusher mechanism. The powered fastener driver also includes a dry-fire lockout mechanism having a lockout lever movable between a bypass position and a blocking position and a last fastener holding member configured to engage a fastener within the fastener driver channel. The lockout lever is configured to engage the fastener within the fastener driver channel. The last fastener holding member biases the fastener within the fastener driver channel toward an inner surface of the fastener driver channel to inhibit the fastener from falling out of the fastener driver channel.

    Abstract: A powered fastener driver includes a housing, a nosepiece coupled to the housing and extending therefrom, a driver blade, a canister magazine coupled to the nosepiece, a pusher mechanism coupled to the nosepiece, and a cam. The pusher mechanism includes a body coupled to the nosepiece, a feeder arm pivotably coupled to the body, and a lever pivotably coupled to the nosepiece. The lever has a first end that is engageable with the body for imparting reciprocating translation to the body relative to the nosepiece in response to pivoting movement of the lever in opposite directions about the pivot axis. A cam is engaged with a second end of the lever for imparting pivoting movement to the lever. The feeder arm is engageable with individual fasteners in the nosepiece for sequentially pushing the fasteners into the driver channel in response to reciprocation of the body relative to the nosepiece.

    Abstract: A fastener driver includes a pusher assembly slidably coupled to a magazine assembly. The pusher assembly includes a first portion and a second portion that are selectively movable relative to each other. The pusher assembly is adjustable between a first state in which the first portion and the second portion are configured to move together in unison toward the channel, and a second state in which the first portion moves relative to the second portion toward the channel. A dry-fire lockout assembly includes a blocking member coupled to the magazine assembly or the nosepiece assembly, and a lockout member selectively engageable with the blocking member for moving the blocking member from a first position and a second position. The pusher assembly is configured to transition from the first state to the second state after a predetermined number of fasteners remain in the magazine assembly.

    Abstract: A powered fastener driver includes a housing, a nosepiece coupled to the housing and extending therefrom, a cylinder positioned within the housing, a storage chamber cylinder at least partially surrounding the cylinder and containing therein pressurized gas in fluid communication with the cylinder, a moveable piston positioned within the cylinder, a driver blade attached to the piston and movable within the nosepiece between a ready position and a driven position, a canister magazine coupled to the nosepiece in which collated fasteners are receivable, a lifting mechanism operable to move the driver blade from the driven position toward the ready position, an electric motor, and a pusher mechanism. The pusher mechanism includes a body coupled to the nosepiece for relative translation, and a feeder arm coupled to the body for movement therewith and engageable with a forwardmost fastener of the collated fasteners to transfer the forwardmost fastener into the driver channel.
