ABSTRACT:
A nailing device used for securing hardwood flooring planks to a subfloor using arcuate fasteners. The nailing device comprises a main body in turn defining a fastener discharge opening. The nailing device also comprises an arcuate fastener ejection channel made in the main body and destined to accommodate an arcuate fastener, the arcuate fastener ejection channel opening outwardly of the nailing device at the fastener discharge opening. The nailing device further comprises an arcuate plunger at least partially nested in the arcuate fastener ejection channel and movable along the arcuate fastener ejection channel between first and second limit positions. Moreover, the nailing device comprises a plunger actuator nested in the main body and connected to the arcuate plunger, which can be selectively activated for moving the arcuate plunger between its first and second limit positions. Upon activation of the plunger actuator, the plunger will move along the fastener ejection channel from its first limit position towards its second limit position to forcibly strike the arcuate fastener located in the fastener ejection channel and eject it out of the nailing device through the fastener discharge opening and into a subjacent workpiece.
