Tack-driv′er.
1. A tack-hammer. 2. A tool with devices for automatically presenting the tacks in succession, and driving them into place. The example shows one which has an inclined plate serving as a hopper, by which the tacks fall into an inclined guide open at the bottom, which causes them to fall with their points downward. Two dies direct the tacks, and a slide forces a tack under the driver, which is held up by a spring. A stroke from a mallet on the driver sets the tacks in the place intended for them. |
