Patent ID: 7070082

Claim:
A pneumatic gun for fixing elements, comprising a body ( 2 ) provided with pneumatically-actuated means for expelling said elements, a handle ( 3 ) that protrudes from said body( 2 ) and a magazine ( 4 ) for storing and individually feeding the fixing elements, which is constituted by a box-like container ( 11 ) having a sliding flap ( 13 ) for inserting said elements, said body ( 2 ) having a working head ( 8 ) for driving said elements that can be coupled to a complementary end head ( 9 ) of said box-like container ( 11 ) having an opening ( 18 ) for the passage of said elements and forming, together with said head ( 8 ), a firing channel ( 7 ) for said elements, a guide ( 38 ) running from said head ( 8 ) to said handle ( 3 ) and coupled slidingly with said box-like container ( 11 ) so as to allow a manual translational motion of said magazine ( 4 ) from a first active end position, in which said complementary head ( 9 ) is adjacent to said head ( 8 ), allowing the expulsion of said elements through said firing channel ( 7 ), to a second position, in which said complementary head ( 9 ) is substantially spaced from said head ( 8 ) in order to allow access to said firing channel ( 7 ), said guide ( 38 ) being provided with means ( 48 ) for rapid manual locking and release of the translational motion of said box-like container ( 11 ), said locking and release means ( 48 ) having a releasable safety closure ( 49 ) for preventing the translational motion of said box-like container ( 11 ) when in the second position and accidental disengagement from said guide ( 38 ), the safety closure having means for stopping a stroke of the magazine said means being an insert ( 57 ) engaged detachably in a respective pocket ( 58 ) provided in said guide ( 38 ), for abutting against a retention protrusion ( 59 ) provided along said box-like container ( 11 ) such that to produce a further translational motion of the magazine ( 4 ) with respect to the guide or to extract the magazine completely, the insert ( 57 ) must be removed from the respective pocket.
