Description
TECHNICAL FIELD

The present disclosure relates to the field of tools, and in particular to a nail gun provided with a wide and narrow nail switching and nail blocking structure.


BACKGROUND

Nail gun is also called a powder actuated tool. Since the appearance and the working principle are similar to a pistol, the nail gun is often called a nail shooting gun. In the European and American nail gun markets, nail shooting guns are not only professional tools, but also suitable for ordinary families and individuals to carry out simple decoration. However, existing nail guns are categorized into narrow nail dedicated guns and wide nail dedicated guns, a user needs to match the nail width with a nail gun, which is inconvenient; in the meanwhile, the nail legs are easy to skew during the nailing process, resulting in a poor quality of nailing.


The patent with application number of CN102785223B provides a nail guide structure and a nail gun having the same. This structure to some extent can solve the problem that the nail legs are easy to skew during the nailing process. However, the employed support element moves horizontally in the positioning groove of the guide plate under the action of the elastic element, the horizontal movement distance is not definite, which may not block the nails. There are still problems of nail leg skew during and after the nailing process or nail stuck.
