Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1920890A2] A screwdriver (1) includes a guide member (2) for guiding a screw strip (7) that carries a plurality of screws (7b) arranged at intervals along a length of the screw strip (7). A feeding device (6) feeds the screw strip (7) such that the screws (7b) of the screw strip (7) are positioned one after another to oppose to a position for driving by a driver bit (5g). The guide member (2) defines an arc-shaped guide path having a length, so that the screw strip (7) can move along the guide path. The guide member (2) is configured such that the length of the guide path can be varied at least between a first length and a second length that is longer than the first length. The present invention may also be applied to power tools for driving nails and rivets.
