Applicant's novel invention relates to a novel hydrogen generator for supplying hydrogen to drive a hydrogen operated engine. The regulator can supply hydrogen to drive an engine for operating the cutter assembly of a lawnmower as well as supply the output of a hydrogen driven engine to operate a variety of power operated devices such as drills, saws, sanders, etc. In addition, the hydrogen generator can supply hydrogen to operate a power driven piston to drive fasteners.

What is claimed: 1. A hydrogen powered fastener gun comprising a frame means, fastener supply means, and a hydrogen supply, a power supply supported by said frame means, a housing defining a chamber, a driving piston in said chamber, means for controlling the supply of hydrogen to said chamber, and means for igniting the hydrogen in said chamber to move said piston to drive a fastener. 2. A hydrogen powered fastener gun as set forth in claim 1 in which the hydrogen supply is provided by a hydrogen generator. 3. A hydrogen powered fastener gun as set forth in claim 1 in which the hydrogen is supplied by means of a storage tank supported on said frame means. 4. A hydrogen powered fastener gun as set forth in claim 1 in which the means for controlling the flow of hydrogen includes a solenoid operated valve operated by a microprocessor that is actuated by an internal switch that activate a signal controlled by engagement of the tool with a work surface, which signal is sent to a microprocessor that allows voltage to operate the solenoid operated valve to allow hydrogen to flow out of the hydrogen tank into the housing chamber. 5. A hydrogen powered fastener gun as set forth in claim 1 in which the mans for igniting the hydrogen in said chamber includes a trigger mechanism that sends a high voltage impulse to a spark point in the piston drive chamber containing hydrogen to drive the piston. 6. A hydrogen powered fastener gun as set forth in claim 1 which includes an oxygen tank that allows for the introduction of oxygen to said chamber to increase the driving force of said driving piston.
