ABSTRACT:
A setting tool includes an adapter for alternately providing rotary and linear motion of the adapter shaft, which engages the fastener. The adapter includes a housing for attachment to a setting tool such as an air gun. A drive member within the housing is secured to the main drive shaft of the air gun for rotation therewith. The drive member includes a perimetrical helical power screw. The adapter shaft extends through the housing and has a rearward end including means such as splines and a spring loaded detent assembly for rotative cooperation with the drive member. The forward end of the adapter shaft engages the fastener. Biasing means are positioned between the adapter shaft and the drive shaft. An inner sleeve positioned about the adapter shaft is threaded for engagement and movement along the drive member. A pick-up means is secured to the adapter shaft. In a first position the rotation of the drive shaft is translated through the drive member to cause rotation of the adapter shaft and in a second position the biasing means is retracted to remove the rotative cooperation and the sleeve advances along the drive member engaging the pick-up means to cause linear movement of the adapter shaft.
