ABSTRACT:
Actuator apparatus (60) for a device such as a nail or staple gun having a linearly translating tool. The apparatus includes reciprocating means (64) for actuating the tool in a first direction. The apparatus includes a drive shaft comprising a sleeve element (67) rotatably fitted over the reciprocating means and adapted to be driven via rotatable drive means (63, 65). The apparatus includes means (73, 74, 75, 76, 77) for coupling the reciprocating means to the sleeve element such that when the sleeve element is rotated, the reciprocating means moves in a second direction opposite to the first direction. The reciprocating means moves in the second direction against the force of a biasing means (78) for storing potential energy in the biasing means. The apparatus includes means (86, 87, 89, 90) for uncoupling the reciprocating means from the sleeve element when the reciprocating means has moved a preset distance in the second direction. The uncoupling means causes the potential energy stored in the biasing means to be released and converted into kinetic energy in the form of rapid movement of the reciprocating means in the first direction.
