A pneumatically controlled tamper includes a cylinder which has a lateral supply opening for compressed air and which is integral with a foot. A piston with a symmetrical structure possesses two internal channels provided with check valves. The first channel terminates at one end on the lateral surface of the piston, above its median plane, and at the other end at the bottom of the piston in a lower chamber connected to the atmosphere by an escape opening. The second channel terminates at one end on the lateral surface of the piston, below its median plane, and at the other end at the top of the piston, in an upper chamber connected to the atmosphere through another escape opening. When the piston is on the bottom of the cylinder, the supply opening supplies the first channel, this arrangement making it possible to initiate a reciprocating movement which is maintained without any distribution system. The invention is used preferentially for soil compacting.

A vibrating tool with pneumatic control, comprising: a cylinder, having a substantially vertical axis, provided with two compressed-air supply openings, located at mid-height and diametrically opposite one another; tool means, for impacting a work surface, fixedly connected to said cylinder; a piston, disposed within said cylinder, provided with a first internal channel terminating at one end on the lateral surface of said piston orthogonal to the vertical axis thereof and above the median plane thereof at a level such that said lateral opening is at the same level as the supply opening in said cylinder when said piston rests at the lower end of said cylinder, and terminating at the other end at the base of said piston, and a second internal channel terminating at one end on the lateral surface of said piston below the median plane thereof orthogonal to the vertical axis thereof and terminating at the other end at the top of said piston; a first check valve disposed within said first channel for permitting air to flow downwardly only; a second check valve disposed within said second channel for permitting air to flow upwardly only; and elastic suspension means connected to said cylinder for substantially insulating the operator or means holding the vibrating tool from the vibration thereof, said suspension means including two hollow uprights connected at opposite sides of said cylinder at said supply openings, said hollow uprights serving as supply ducts; wherein said cylinder has a first escape opening at the upper portion thereof which connects the interior of said cylinder to the atmosphere when said piston is at the lowermost position thereof and a second escape opening at the lower portion thereof which connects the interior of said cylinder to the atmosphere when said piston is at the uppermost position thereof.
