SCREWDRIVING TOOL HAVING A DRIVING TOOL WITH A REMOVABLE CONTACT TRIP ASSEMBLY

摘要

A screwdriving tool that includes a driving tool (driver), a sensor, a sensor target and a contact trip assembly that is coupled to the driving tool and has a nose element. The driver has a housing, a motor and an output member that is driven by the motor. One of the nose element and the output member is axially movable and biased by a spring into an extended position. The sensor and sensor target are configured to cooperate to permit the sensor to provide a sensor signal that is indicative of movement of the one of the nose element and the output member. The motor is controllable in a first operational mode and at least one rotational direction based in part on the sensor signal.

1. A screwdriving tool comprising a driving tool, a contact trip assembly that is coupled to the driving tool, a sensor and a sensor target, the driving tool having a tool housing, a motor assembly and an output member that is driven by the motor assembly, the contact trip assembly having a nose element, one of the nose element and the output member being axially movable and biased by a spring into an extended position, one of the sensor and the sensor target being coupled to the tool housing, the other one of the sensor and the sensor target being coupled to the one of the output member and the nose element for axial movement relative to the one of the sensor and the sensor target, the sensor providing a sensor signal that is based upon a distance between the sensor and the sensor target, wherein the motor assembly is controllable in a first operational mode and at least one rotational direction based in part on the sensor signal.
