Abstract: A fastener driver includes a housing defining a head portion and a handle portion, a drive mechanism positioned within the housing, and a firing mechanism. The firing mechanism includes a piston, a driver blade attached to the piston, a biasing member having a first end supported within the piston and a second end supported by the head portion, and a damper positioned between the firing mechanism and the head portion of the housing. The damper configured to attenuate one or more of noise or vibration from the firing mechanism as the driver blade moves from the top dead center position toward the bottom dead center position.

Abstract: A fastener driver includes a magazine having a magazine cover and a magazine body. The magazine cover includes a top surface having an opening defined therein. The magazine body is slidably movable relative to the magazine cover from a closed position to an open position. A latch is coupled to the top surface of the magazine cover and extends through the opening in the top surface of the magazine cover. The latch includes a latch projection that defines a first contact surface. A pusher body is slidably coupled to the magazine body and includes an arm member that defines a second contact surface. A biasing member biases the pusher toward a nosepiece when the magazine body is in the closed position. The first and second contact surfaces are engageable to hold the pusher body in a latched position when the magazine body is in the open position.

Abstract: A powered fastener driver includes a driver blade movable from a top-dead-center position to a bottom-dead-center position for driving a fastener into a workpiece, a drive unit for providing torque to move the driver blade toward the top-dead-center position, and a rotary lifter engageable with the driver blade. The rotary lifter having a body and a drive pin coupled to the body. A roller is rotatably coupled to the drive pin and includes a non-cylindrical outer peripheral surface defining a plurality of engagement sections. A tooth of the driver blade is configured to engage one of the engagement sections when moving the driver blade from the bottom-dead-center position toward the top-dead-center position.

Abstract: A powered fastener driver includes a housing, a cylinder within the housing, the cylinder containing a pressurized gas, a piston within the cylinder and movable from a top-dead-center position to a bottom-dead-center position, a driver blade movably coupled to the piston, a lifter, a drive unit configured to provide torque to the lifter, and a sensor. The driver blade has a plurality of teeth defining a predetermined number of edges. The sensor is configured to detect an edge of one or more of the plurality of teeth and a controller in communication with the drive unit and the sensor. The controller is configured to count a number of edges detected by the sensor, compare the number of detected edges to the predetermined number of edges, and stop the drive unit when the number of detected edges is less than the predetermined number of edges.

Abstract: A powered fastener driver includes a driver blade and a drive unit having an output shaft for providing torque to move the driver blade from the bottom-dead-center position toward the top-dead-center position. A rotary lifter is engageable with the driver blade and configured to receive torque from the output shaft of the drive unit in a first rotational direction for returning the driver blade from the bottom-dead-center position toward the top-dead-center position. A kickout arrangement is defined between the lifter and the output shaft and configured to permit limited movement of the lifter relative to the output shaft between a first position and a second position. The kickout arrangement having a curvilinear slot defined in the rotary lifter in which a portion of the output shaft is received. Movement of the rotary lifter from the first position toward the second position causes the slot to move relative to the output shaft, while the output shaft remains within the slot.

A roller is positioned on the drive pin and engages with a tooth of the driver blade when moving the driver blade from the bottom-dead-center position toward the top-dead-center position. The roller includes a first engagement section that receives an end portion of the tooth and a second engagement section. An engagement member engages the second engagement section for aligning the first engagement section of the roller with the end portion of the tooth to facilitate meshing between the end portion of the tooth and the roller.

Abstract: A powered fastener driver includes a driver blade movable from a top-dead-center (TDC) position to a bottom-dead-center (BDC) position for driving a fastener into a workpiece and a drive unit for providing torque to move the driver blade from the BDC position toward the TDC position. A kickout arrangement is at least partially defined by an outer surface on one of a torque output member and a torque input member and an aperture formed in the other of the torque output member and the torque input member in which the outer surface is received. The kickout arrangement configured to permit limited rotation of the torque output member relative to the torque input member between a first position and a second position.

Abstract: A powered fastener driver comprising a housing, a nosepiece extending from the housing, a workpiece contact bracket at least partially surrounding the nosepiece, wherein the workpiece contact bracket slides on the nosepiece, a driver blade movable within the nosepiece between a ready position and a driven position, and a drive mechanism operatively coupled with the driver blade to drive the driver blade. The nosepiece includes a tail extending outwardly at least partially along a length of the nosepiece and the workpiece contact bracket includes an internal bore having a tail socket extending at least partially along a length of the workpiece contact bracket, wherein the tail of the nosepiece fits into the tail socket of the workpiece contact bracket to form a slip fit elongated dovetail joint between the nosepiece and the workpiece contact bracket.
