Abstract

Means for associating a driver with the driver operating mechanism of a fastener driving tool, the driver constituting a part of a fastener-containing magazine manually attachable to and detachable from the tool. The fastener driving tool is of the type having a housing containing a driving element constituting a part of an operating mechanism for driving a fastener by multiple blows, or a driving element constituting a part of an operating mechanism for driving a fastener by a single blow. In the instance of a multiple-blow tool, a resilient element, attached to the tool housing adjacent the driver operating mechanism and the driver operating mechanism itself, releasably positions the upper end of the magazine driver adjacent the driving element of the tool. In the instance of a single-blow tool, the magazine driver is releasably positioned adjacent the driving element of the tool by a resilient element attached directly to the driving element of the tool.
