Universal Base Plate for Nail Gun Conduit Fixing
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current fixing accessories for nail guns are not universally compatible with different models, requiring specific accessories for each type of nail gun, which limits their versatility and efficiency in use.
Innovation Solution
A base plate made of synthetic plastic material, designed as a truncated square pyramid with inner coupling means for secure attachment to nail guns, including central and tangential fitting means, friction fitting means, and outer positioning and threading features for versatile conduit fixation.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If a clamp is fixed by means of a nail gun, then the fixing is secure, but the operator must use both hands, whereby the handling of the nail gun is affected
Solution Approach 1:
The clamp is pre-assembled with the base plate and positioning elements before being brought to the work site. This preliminary preparation allows the operator to simply attach the pre-assembled unit to the nail gun muzzle and fire, eliminating the need for complex manual alignment and positioning during operation.
2Manufacturing precision
If a fixing accessory is designed for a specific nail gun model, then the fit is precise, but the accessory cannot be used with other nail gun models
Solution Approach 1:
The base plate is designed with a universal interface that can accommodate multiple nail gun models. The positioning elements and coupling mechanism are configured to work with various muzzle dimensions and shapes, allowing a single base plate design to serve multiple nail gun types while maintaining precise fit and secure attachment.

AI summary
The invention relates to a base plate for flanging conduits, suitable for being fixed by means of a nail gun. It is formed by a hollow body (2), in the form of a truncated square pyramid with an open upper smaller base (5), comprising inner coupling means for coupling to a nail gun which comprise central fitting means (6) for fitting inside the muzzle of a nail gun, tangential fitting means (7) for fitting with perimetric points of the muzzle of a nail gun and friction fitting means (8) for fitting with two flaps (9) of a nail gun parallel to one another. Said hollow body (2) also comprises means (10) for positioning it with respect to a location line (24), means (11) for seating and consolidating conduits and means (12) for threading clamps.
