The subject matter of the invention is a driving apparatus for fasteners each of which has a shank and a head, and a characteristic of the invention is that a feeding mechanism for feeding fasteners from a magazine for a row of fasteners to a laterally offset firing track in the apparatus is in the form of a reciprocatory slide the path of movement of which is perpendicular both to the row of fasteners and to the fastener firing track of the apparatus, that the slide has two opposite arms with oblique end surfaces forming a gate device which is movable during the movement of the slide to allow one fastener at a time to pass from the magazine to the firing track, and that one arm of the slide serves as a separating means which during the movement of the slide in one direction is moved in between the fastener introduced into the gate device and the next following fastener so that these fasteners are separated from one another, and which at the same time positively moves the fastener introduced into the gate device through the gate device to the firing track under the collaboration of a stationary stop means which prevents the fastener introduced into the gate device from moving together with the slide. |
