Detailed Description

The present disclosure will be described in further detail with reference to the drawings and embodiments. It is to be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are for purposes of illustration only and are not to be construed as limitations of the present disclosure. It should be further noted that, for the convenience of description, only the portions relevant to the present disclosure are shown in the drawings.

It should be noted that the embodiments and features of the embodiments in the present disclosure may be combined with each other without conflict. Technical solutions of the present disclosure will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings in conjunction with embodiments.

Unless otherwise indicated, the illustrated exemplary embodiments/examples are to be understood as providing exemplary features of various details of some ways in which the technical concepts of the present disclosure may be practiced. Accordingly, unless otherwise indicated, features of the various embodiments may be additionally combined, separated, interchanged, and/or rearranged without departing from the technical concept of the present disclosure.

The use of cross-hatching and/or shading in the drawings is generally used to clarify the boundaries between adjacent components. As such, unless otherwise noted, the presence or absence of cross-hatching or shading does not convey or indicate any preference or requirement for a particular material, material property, size, proportion, commonality between the illustrated components and/or any other characteristic, attribute, property, etc., of a component. Further, in the drawings, the size and relative sizes of components may be exaggerated for clarity and/or descriptive purposes. While example embodiments may be practiced differently, the specific process sequence may be performed in a different order than that described. For example, two processes described consecutively may be performed substantially simultaneously or in reverse order to that described. In addition, like reference numerals denote like parts.

When an element is referred to as being "on" or "on," "connected to" or "coupled to" another element, it can be directly on, connected or coupled to the other element or intervening elements may be present. However, when an element is referred to as being "directly on," "directly connected to" or "directly coupled to" another element, there are no intervening elements present. For purposes of this disclosure, the term "connected" may refer to physically, electrically, etc., and may or may not have intermediate components.

For descriptive purposes, the present disclosure may use spatially relative terms such as "below … …," below … …, "" below … …, "" below, "" above … …, "" above, "" … …, "" higher, "and" side (e.g., as in "side wall") to describe one component's relationship to another (other) component as illustrated in the figures. Spatially relative terms are intended to encompass different orientations of the device in use, operation, and/or manufacture in addition to the orientation depicted in the figures. For example, if the device in the figures is turned over, elements described as "below" or "beneath" other elements or features would then be oriented "above" the other elements or features. Thus, the exemplary term "below … …" can encompass both an orientation of "above" and "below". Further, the devices may be otherwise positioned (e.g., rotated 90 degrees or at other orientations) and the spatially relative descriptors used herein interpreted accordingly.

The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments and is not intended to be limiting. As used herein, the singular forms "a", "an" and "the" are intended to include the plural forms as well, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. Furthermore, when the terms "comprises" and/or "comprising" and variations thereof are used in this specification, the presence of stated features, integers, steps, operations, elements, components and/or groups thereof are stated but does not preclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, integers, steps, operations, elements, components and/or groups thereof. It is also noted that, as used herein, the terms "substantially," "about," and other similar terms are used as approximate terms and not as degree terms, and as such, are used to interpret inherent deviations in measured values, calculated values, and/or provided values that would be recognized by one of ordinary skill in the art.

In the present disclosure, the axis of the taking hole 112 is disposed parallel to the axis of the receiving hole 111.

Preferably, the depth of the taking hole 112 is smaller than the depth of the accommodating hole 111; that is, on the storage part 110, the receiving hole 111 may be formed as a through hole, and the taking-out hole 112 is formed as a counter bore so that a fastening element can be inserted into the receiving hole below the plane of the bottom wall surface of the taking-out hole 112, so that the fastening element can be stably held and the fastening element can be prevented from being stuck.

Of course, the extraction hole 112 may be formed as a through hole, and when the extraction hole 112 is formed as a through hole, it is necessary to make the arc line of the remaining portion of the accommodation hole 111 a major arc.

The seat member 120 is provided to the storage part 110 at a lower portion of the storage part 110, and the seat member 120 applies a force to the fastening element stored in the storage part 110 so that the fastening element is stably held.

As a realization form, the seat part 120 is made of rubber magnets, in which case the fastening elements may be made of ferrous alloys, so that the fastening elements are stably held by the attraction force exerted by the rubber magnets on the fastening elements, ensuring that the fastening elements do not fall off under any circumstances, and thus ensuring that no redundant nails are present in the nailing device.

As another implementation form, the seat part 120 is made of a silicone material, and the seat part 120 is provided with a magnetic portion.

More preferably, the seat member 120 is made of a soft material, such as a silicone material, in which a hole is formed, the diameter of the hole in the silicone material is smaller than that of the threaded portion of the fastening element, and when the fastening element is placed in the storage portion, the lower end of the fastening element may pass through the storage portion and be inserted into the hole of the silicone material to stably hold the fastening element by deformation of the silicone material.
