A pneumatic power tool for tightening screw joints includes a primary motor 11 for a high speed running down sequence, a secondary motor 12 for a high torque final tightening sequence, a coupling gearing 18 providing a high ratio gearing for the secondary motor 12, a gearing of a substantially lower ratio for the primary motor 11 and a one-way clutch 30 by which the secondary motor 12 is automatically engaged at decreasing tightening speed. An air supply valve 33 substantially reduces the air consumption of the tool by keeping the air supply to the secondary motor 12 shut off until a certain degree of tightness in the joint is obtained, after which the valve 33 is opened and the secondary motor 12 is energized.

In a pneumatic power tool for tightening threaded joints, comprising a housing (10), an air supply passage (14) in said housing (10) communicating with an external pressure air source, a primary motor (11) for obtaining an initial degree of pretension in the joint, a secondary motor (12) for obtaining together with said primary motor (11) the desired final degree of pretension in the joint, said primary and secondary motors (11, 12) each having an air inlet, and a power train (18, 19) for transmitting the power of said primary motor (11) and said secondary motor (12) to an output spindle connectable to the joint, the improvement comprising: an air supply valve (33; 133) which includes a cylinder bore (38; 138) in the housing (10) and a valve element (39; 139) which is sealingly guided in said cylinder bore (38; 138), said cylinder bore (38; 138) having an inlet port (37; 137) communicating with said air supply passage (14), a first service port (56; 156) communicating with said air inlet of said primary motor (11), and a second service port (57; 157) communicating with said air inlet of said secondary motor (12), said valve element (39; 139) being arranged in said clyinder bore (38; 138) to control only said second service port (57; 157), said valve element (39; 139) being shiftable between a second service port (57; 157) covering position and a second service port uncovering position, and said valve element (39; 139) being balanced between the air pressure in said air supply passage (14) and the back pressure from said primary motor (11) such that an increased back pressure from said primary motor (11) as said initial degree of pretension is reached causes said valve element (39; 139) to move from said second service port covering position to said second service port uncovering position, thereby energizing said secondary motor (12).
