The present invention relates generally to the technical field of machine tool products, and more particularly to a double-cam fastener driving machine.
In a quick fastening machine (also known as nailing gun or fastener driving machine), the energy storage unit (e.g. gas, compression spring, rubber, vacuum) is usually compressed or pulled to store energy, and then the energy is released quickly to apply work to the outside.
The quick fastening machine of the existing technology generally uses incomplete gear-rack structure as pushing mechanism to drive the impact unit to compress the energy storage unit, so as to store energy. When the energy storage unit releases energy to drive the impact unit to drive the fastener into the object, the pushing mechanism is disengaged from the impact unit, so that the pushing mechanism cannot engage with the impact unit correctly during quick release and nail jamming of impact unit, unfavorable for increasing the transmission efficiency, the time of working cycle is prolonged a lot, and the operational stability and smoothness of impact unit cannot be guaranteed.

Described with attached figures below.
The energy storage unit 1 is a medium which can implement energy storage by changing displacement, such as air spring, mechanical spring, rubber element, vacuum and so on.
When the double-cam mechanism 5 is in engaged state, the pushing mechanism 4 can drive the impact unit to move in the first direction, so that the energy storage unit stores energy. When the double-cam mechanism 5 is in non-engaged state, the pushing mechanism 4 and the second cam 52 move in the second direction together with the impact unit under the effect of energy storage unit, so as to drive the fastener. The first direction refers to the impact unit 2 to energy storage unit 1 direction, and the second direction refers to the energy storage unit 1 to impact unit 2 direction. The first direction and the second direction can be defined in the following ways. When the first cam engages with the second cam, the motor output torsion pushes the impact unit to move leftwards through the gear transmission module, the first output shaft, the first cam, the second cam and the pushing mechanism, so that the energy storage unit 1 generates vacuum to store energy, this direction of movement of impact unit is defined as the first direction. When the first cam is disengaged from the second cam, i.e. non-engaged state, the energy storage unit I releases energy to drive the impact unit to move towards the nail guide plate 71, the fastener is driven from the nail guide plate into the workpiece, this direction of movement is defined as the second direction.
The first cam 51 and the second cam 52 can engage with each other at a part of circumferential angle, the rotating motion of the first cam 51 is transformed into the rotating motion of the second cam 52, and the rotation direction is opposite. The first cam 51 and the second cam 52 do not engage with each other at the other part of circumferential angle, so as to implement disengagement. Wherein when the first cam 51 engages with the second cam 52 along the mating surface, the distance between the point of engagement and the spin axis of the first cam 51 increases gradually, and the distance between the point of engagement and the spin axis of the second cam 52 decreases gradually.
The mating surface of the first cam 51 can be set as an involute surface. The mating surface of the second cam 52 can be set as an involute surface. Certainly, the mating surface of the first cam 51 and the mating surface of the second cam 52 can be set as other shapes, as long as the same technical effect can be achieved. Wherein the mating surfaces of the first cam 51 and the second cam 52 are set as involute surfaces, so that the arm of pressure between the first cam 51 and the second cam 52 is constant, and the relative movement along the common normal surface of two involute surfaces can be regarded as pure rolling, so as to increase the rotational efficiency.
The rotating actuating unit 3 comprises a gear transmission module 31, a motor 32 installed for the gear transmission module 31 and a first output shaft 33 installed on the gear transmission module 31 for driving the first cam to rotate. The motor 32 provides torsion and speed. The gear transmission module 31 uses one-layer or multilayer planetary gear transmission. This embodiment uses three-layer planetary gear transmission for reducing speed and increasing torsion. A clamp shaft 34 is fixed to the first output shaft 33. The first cam 51 is rotatably fitted over the first output shaft 33, and the first cam 51 is provided with an arc chute 511, the end of the clamp shaft 34 extends into the arc chute 511. The output of motor 32 is transferred through the gear transmission module 31 to the first output shaft 33. Both ends of the first output shaft 33 are supported by the first and second bearings. The first cam 51 is located between the first and second bearings. The clamp shaft is installed on the first output shaft, rotating with the first output shaft 33, and transmitting torque to the first cam 51, so as to drive the first cam 51 to rotate. When the first output shaft 33 rotates counterclockwise, the first cam 51 rotates counterclockwise as driven by the clamp shaft 34.
The clamp shaft 34 comprises a base 341 and an axle body 342 molded on one side of the base 341 and normal to the base 341. The base 341 is fixedly fitted over the first output shaft 33. The axle body 342 vertically extends into the arc chute 511 from top to bottom.
The second cam 52 is fixed to the second output shaft 53. The pushing mechanism 4 comprises a first pulley 41 fixed to the second output shaft 53, a cord 42 connected to the first pulley 41 and several second pulleys 43 for guiding the cord 42 to deflect. The end of the cord 42 is connected to the impact unit 2 through the second pulley 43. The first pulley 41 rotates along with the second output shaft 53.
The impact unit 2 comprises a piston 22 disposed in the energy storage unit 1 and a striker 21 connected to the piston 22. The end of the cord 42 is connected to the back end center of the piston 22.
The piston 22 is disposed in a cylinder body 11, and the periphery of the piston 22 hermetically contacts the inside of cylinder body 11. The energy storage unit 1 is vacuum. The energy storage unit 1 is located between piston 22 and cylinder body 11. The back end of the cylinder body 11 is provided with a hole site 111 for the cord 42 to pass through. The energy storage unit 1 and rotating actuating unit 3 are fixed to the base 6. At the beginning, the piston adheres to the end face of base 6, when the piston 22 moves back for a distance, as there is no gas supply, the confined space formed among the cylinder body, piston and base 6 will be vacuum (i.e. energy storage unit 1).
There are two of the second pulley 43, one second pulley is installed on the side of back end of cylinder body 11, the other second pulley is arranged at the hole site 111 of cylinder body 11, so that the end of cord 42 is connected to the center of back face of piston 22 through two second pulleys 43, and the end of cord 42 and the axis of piston 22 are in the same straight line, the cord 42 can pull the piston 22 to move inside the cylinder body, and it is the most laborsaving.
The upper and lower ends of the first output shaft 33 are installed on the base 6 through the first bearing 331 and the second bearing 332. The upper and lower ends of the second output shaft 53 are installed on base 6 through the third bearing 531 and the fourth bearing 532. A first bulge 61 and a second bulge 62 are formed at the front end of upper part of the base 6.

The present invention includes a nail guide plate 71 and a nail clip 72 arranged at the lower end of the nail guide plate 71 for delivering fasteners to the nail guide plate 71. The nail guide plate 71 has a channel for the striker 21 of impact unit 2 to pass through. The nail clip is a fastener loading device, delivering fasteners (e.g. nails) to the nail guide plate. The nail guide plate receives fasteners from the nail clip. When a fastener falls into the channel of nail guide plate, the striker 21 of the impact unit performs impact with the releasing capacity of energy storage unit 1, the striker 21 passes through the channel, and drives the fastener (e.g. nail) in the channel into the workpiece (generally wood, metal plate or cement).

To sum up, in the operation of the present invention, the rotating actuating unit 3 drives the first cam 51 to rotate. When the first cam 51 engages with the second cam 52, the second cam 52 is driven to rotate, so that the pushing mechanism 4 is actuated to drive the impact unit 2 to make the energy storage unit 1 store energy. To be specific, the cord of pushing mechanism pulls the piston of impact unit to move, the piston moves inside the cylinder body, forming vacuum inside the cylinder body, so as to drive the storage unit to store energy. When the first cam 51 rotates till non-engaged state with second cam 52, the second cam 52 cannot provide power for the pushing mechanism 4 anymore, the impact unit rushes out under the effect of the energy released from the energy storage unit, so as to drive the fastener into the workpiece.
