An electric nailing gun is disclosed to use a sensor in the nail magazine and to connect the sensor to a control circuit such that when a magazine follower is moved to a predetermined position in the nail path, the sensor sends a control signal to the control circuit to drive a counter to start counting the number of striking actions of the plunger, and the control circuit controls the electric nailing gun to reduce the plunger impact when the counting of the counter reaches a predetermined value.

1. An electric nailing gun comprising:a gun body defining therein a plunger reciprocating path, said plunger reciprocating path having a first end and a second end, said gun body having a bore at the second end of said plunger reciprocating path;a plunger mounted inside said gun body for a reciprocating motion along said plunger reciprocating path;a spring member connected between said plunger and said gun body for holding said plunger at the first end of said plunger reciprocating path;a coil mounted inside said gun body for generating a magnetic field attracting said plunger to move along said reciprocating path from the first end to the second end;a nail magazine having a magazine shell for accommodating a plurality of nails, said magazine shell defining a nail path in communication with said plunger reciprocating path, a magazine follower movable along said nail path for moving said nails out of said nail path into said plunger reciprocating path for striking by said plunger, and a magazine spring connected between said magazine shell and said magazine follower for pushing said magazine follower to force nails out of said nail path into said plunger reciprocating path;a control circuit for controlling supply of electric current to said coil, said control circuit having a counter for counting the number of striking actions of said plunger; anda sensor mounted in said nail magazine and electrically connected to said control circuit for outputting a control signal to said control circuit to further drive said counter to start counting the number of striking actions of said plunger when said magazine follower is moved to a predetermined position in said nail path, whereby said control circuit reduces the supply of electric current to said coil when the counting of said counter reaches a predetermined value.2. The electric nailing gun as defined in claim 1, wherein said sensor comprises a transmitting side and a receiving side respectively formed at two sides of said magazine shell, said transmitting side transmitting a detection signal receivable by said receiving side, a signal path being defined between said transmitting side and said receiving side, said sensor outputting said control signal to said control circuit when said receiving side receives no signal from said transmitting side.3. The electric nailing gun as defined in claim 1, wherein said sensor is a contact type switch touchable by said magazine follower to output said control signal to said control circuit when said magazine follower is moved to a predetermined position in said nail path.4. The electric nailing gun as defined in claim 1 further comprising a safety switch connected to said control circuit for controlling the power of said electric nailing gun, and a push rod axially movably mounted in said gun body for controlling said safety switch, said push rod having a first end protruding out of said bore of said gun body and a second end connected to said safety switch for turning on said safety switch when said bore of said gun body contacts against a workpiece to move said push rod backwards.5. The electric nailing gun as defined in claim 1 further comprising a warning device electrically connected to said control circuit and controllable by said control circuit to output a warning signal when the counting of said counter reaches a predetermined value.6. The electric nailing gun as defined in claim 1, wherein said control circuit resets said counter and stops said counter from counting when said control circuit receives no control signal from said sensor, whereby when said control circuit receives no control signal from said sensor after reducing the supply of electric current to said coil, said control circuit resets said counter and resumes full supply of electric current to said coil.
