To prevent bounce of a hammer or plunger element coupled to an insertion blade of a stapling or nailing gun upon return of the plunger element to rest position by a spring (11), the plunger element (4) is in cup shape, sliding about a hollow cylinder (6) which is vented to ambient air (8) at one end

To prevent bounce of a hammer or plunger element coupled to an insertion blade of a stapling or nailing gun upon return of the plunger element to rest position by a spring (11), the plunger element (4) is in cup shape, sliding about a hollow cylinder (6) which is vented to ambient air (8) at one end, but closed at its other end by a flap-type check valve (9). Upon downward movement of the plunger element, for example under electromagnetic force of a solenoid (2), air can flow freely from the vent opening (8) into the hollow interior and through the then open check valve (9); upon return movement under force of a spring (11), the flap valve (9) will close, however, thus forming an air cushion or air damper and preventing rapid, uncontrolled return of the plunger element to rest position, due to an air throttling path (19) between the outside of the hollow cylinder and the inner surface of the plunger element (4), said air throttling path being defined by the operating clearance between the plunger (4) and the hollow cylinder (6). The hollow cylinder (6) may be constructed as a guide element, unitary with the valve, and made of plastic, the valve being secured by a living hinge to the remainder of the hollow cylinder.

Electric hammering tool apparatus, particularly nailing or stapling gun, having a housing (1); a plunger element (4) positioned for reciprocating movement in the housing; a solenoid coil (2) and a return spring (11) forming a motive means (2, 11) respectively reciprocating the plunger element in the housing, the plunger element forming an armature (4) in electromagnetic cooperation with said solenoid coil; and comprising, in accordance with the invention, an air throttle path (19) located in the path of movement of the plunger element and including a check valve (9) permitting free movement of the plunger element independently of throttling of the plunger element in a hammering direction (18), under power of the motive means, while damping movement of the plunger element in a return direction and rendering effective said air throttling path; and a hollow cylinder (6) forming a guide means for said armature; means (7) for securing one end (7) of the hollow cylinder in the housing; an air vent opening communicating the interior of the hollow cylinder with ambient air outside of the housing; and wherein the check valve (9) is located at the other end of the hollow cylinder, the plunger element being a cup-shaped piston element surrounding said hollow cylinder, with clearance, said clearance defining a narrow gap forming an air throttle path (19). Electric hammering tool apparatus, particularly nailing or stapling gun, having a housing (1); a hollow cylinder (6) secured at one end (7) in the housing; an air vent opening (8) communicating the interior of the hollow cylinder with ambient air; a solenoid coil (2) and a return spring (11); a plunger element (4) positioned for reciprocating movement in the housing, the plunger element comprising a cup-shaped armature (4) in electromagnetic cooperation with said solenoid coil, closely surrounding the outside of said cylinder (6) leaving only a narrow gap, and guided by the cylinder in its reciprocating movement, said narrow gap defining an air throttling path (19); and a check valve (9) closing off air flow communication between the interior of the hollow cylinder (6) and said air vent opening (8) for permitting free movement of the plunger element in a hammering direction, while damping movement of the plunger element in a return direction under force of the return spring, and rendering effective said air throttling path by permitting escape of air sucked through the hollow cylinder into the interior of the cup-shaped armature only through said narrow gap defining said air throttling path (19).
