ABSTRACT:
A pneumatic impact gun having an accumulator and interlock system for rapidly dumping a predetermined amount of compressed air into a cylinder to thereby propel an associated piston toward an anvil for contact with a rivet to be upset. The interlock system prevents accidental firing of the gun until a normally open interlock valve is manually depressed. Thereupon, a trigger valve may be manually opened to permit compressed air from a source to open a main valve and charge the accumulator to a predetermined pressure. The air in the accumulator may then be rapidly dumped therefrom into contact with the piston. Additionally, a metering valve serves as an energy selector to permit selective charging of the accumulator for varying the resulting impact of the piston onto the anvil.
