ABSTRACT:
An adjustable nailer magazine for storing nails to be ejected from a nailer, comprising: a magazine body, with a groove cut inside the magazine body for accommodating the nails in a row, the groove having a lower part, an upper part and a depth that determines a length of the nails; an adjusting device for adjusting the depth of the groove, mounted in the magazine body and having a plurality of adjusting plates, which are placed parallel to and above each other, oriented perpendicular to the nails; an outer adjusting cap on the outer side of the magazine body, which is glidingly movable, driving the adjusting device; and a pushing device, mounted in the magazine body, for pushing the nails towards one end of the magazine body. By moving the outer adjusting cap, the adjusting plates are placed one after another over the groove, reducing the depth thereof in various stages, thus allowing to vary the length of nails placed in the groove. The pushing bar further comprises a first pushing bar with a first pushing plate, gliding in the lower part of the groove, and a second pushing bar with a second pushing plate, gliding in the upper part of the groove between two of the plurality of adjusting plates, such that relatively long nails are stably supported while being pushed.
