Patent attributes
A driving tool includes a tool body, a flywheel, a driver, a pressing mechanism and a solenoid. The solenoid has an actuation part configured to linearly move in a specified direction from an initial position when the solenoid is activated. The pressing mechanism includes a holder turnably supported around a rotation axis relative to the tool body, and a roller rotatably supported by the holder. The holder is turnable between a first position in which the roller is apart from the driver and a second position in which the roller abuts on the driver and presses the driver toward the flywheel to thereby enable transmission of the rotational energy to the driver. The actuation part is configured to turn the holder from the first position to the second position while moving from the initial position.
