Description
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

1. Field of the Invention


The present invention relates to a clinching tool, and more particularly to a cordless clinching tool.


2. Description of Related Art


A conventional clinching tool comprises a piston structure, a nail clamping unit, a pushing stick, and a nail transportation unit. The piston structure is mounted in the clinching tool and is powered by a pneumatic device, such that the piston structure can be moved back and forth in the clinching tool. The nail clamping unit is mounted on a front of the piston structure and can be pushed by the piston structure. The pushing stick is mounted in the clinching tool. The nail transportation unit is mounted on a side of the clinching tool. The nail transportation unit can transport multiple C-shaped nails into a clamping mouth of the nail clamping unit sequentially.


In use, the pneumatic device provides a power for the piston structure. The piston structure pushes the pushing stick forth, and then the pushing stick pushes a C-shaped nail to the clamping mouth. The piston structure moves backward. A supporting wheel supports the clamping mouth to enable a front end of the clamping mouth to clamp the C-shaped nail such that the C-shaped nail is formed into a ringed structure to tie a mesh or a branch in gardening use.


However, the conventional clinching tool is powered by the pneumatic device, so the clinching tool is used by coordinating with an air compressor. The air compressor is heavy in weight and can hardly be transported. Therefore, the clinching tool cannot be used in an outdoor environment or in high altitude. In addition, the clinching tool is connected with the air compressor by pipelines. The pipelines may cause an inconvenience for working. As a result, the use of the clinching tool is restricted in the working environment and the operation.

The second connecting terminal 61 is mounted on a top of the cell assembly 60 and is electrically connected with the first connecting terminal 115 to provide a power generated from the cell assembly 60 to the motor 51.


With reference to FIG. 1, in use, multiple C-shaped nails A are mounted in the nail track 32. The nail pushing block 33 pushes the rear of the C-shaped nails A toward the nail entrance 213 due to the elastic force of the retractor spring 35. With reference to FIGS. 1 and 3, the button 114 is pressed to turn on the switch 113, such that the cell assembly 60 can provide a power for the motor 51 to operate.


With reference to FIGS. 8 to 10, when the motor 51 is rotated, the driving bevel gear 53 is rotated by the motor 51, and then the driven bevel gear 55 and the rotating plate 56 are rotated by the driving bevel gear 53. When the rotating plate 56 is rotated, the long pushing unit 57, the short pushing unit 58, and the magnetic unit 571 are also rotated. When the short pushing unit 58 is moved to the front of the upper engaging portion 452 and pushes the upper engaging portion 452, the engaging base 45 is pushed and drives the sliding base 42 to slide backward relative to the track 41. Then, the abutting head 26 is driven to move relative to the track 41 by the sliding base 42 due to the guiding pins 421. The pushing stick 25 and the pushing plate 24 are further driven to move by the abutting head 26. The spring 44 is compressed by the moved abutting head 26 and the track 41.


When the rotating plate 56 is further rotated, the short pushing unit 58 is moved to depart from the upper engaging portion 452, and then the long pushing unit 57 is moved to abut the lower engaging portion 451. The engaging base 45 and the sliding base 42 are pushed to move toward the rear of the track 41. In the described process, the supporting wheels 242 are moved backward and support the upper clamping mouth 22 and the lower clamping mouth 23 in two opposite directions respectively, such that the rear ends of the upper clamping mouth 22 and the lower clamping mouth 23 depart from each other and the front ends of the upper clamping mouth 22 and the lower clamping mouth 23 approach each other. When the front ends of the upper clamping mouth 22 and the lower clamping mouth 23 approach each other, the upper clamping portion 221 and the lower clamping portion 231 clamp the C-shaped nail A to form a ringed structure to tie an object.


With reference to FIGS. 10 and 11, when the rotating plate 56 is further rotated, the long pushing unit 57 is moved to depart from the lower engaging portion 451, and then the abutting head 26 and the pushing stick 25 are pushed forth by the spring 44. When the abutting head 26 and the pushing stick 25 are pushed forth, the pushing plate 24 is driven to move forth to push forth a new C-shaped nail A to enter the nail clamping unit chamber 121 from the nail track 32 by the pushing surface 241. The new C-shaped nail A is pushed until the new C-shaped nail A is located between the upper clamping portion 221 and the lower clamping portion 231. When the rotating plate 56 is rotated in one revolution, the magnetic field sensor 573 detects the magnetic field generated from the magnetic unit 571 again. Then, the magnetic field sensor 573 transmits a signal to the electric board 572, and the electric board 572 transmits a signal to the main circuit board 116. After the main circuit board 116 receives the signal from the electric board 572, the motor 51 is stopped operating by the main circuit board 116. Therefore, the components of the cordless clinching tool will return to the initial positions.


The cordless clinching tool is driven by the cell assembly 60. The cell assembly 60 provides a power for the motor 51 to make the driving device 50 and the pushing device 40 coordinate with each other. The pushing stick 25 can be pulled backward by the driving device 50 and the pushing device 40 and then return to the initial position again by the spring 44 to finish an operation cycle for clamping a C-shaped nail A. The cordless clinching tool is not driven by an air compressor, and is not connected with the air compressor by pipelines, either. Therefore, the cordless clinching tool is portable and is not restricted in the working environment and the operation.
