Zusammenfassung:A rivet carrier for use in association with a driver for driving rivets into a work piece. The rivet carrier includes mounting structure for mounting the rivet carrier on the driver. A body portion of the rivet carrier is in communication with the mounting structure for receiving and retaining the rivet for engagement by the driver. Angled rollers are disposed in the body, and there are pivotable arms in the body. A resilient member retainably engages the pivotable arms. The rollers are retained in recesses in the body, and at least a portion of the pivotable arms defines at least a portion of the recesses. Preferably, a pair of outlet vents are provided in the body of the rivet carrier for venting air which is used to drive the rivet. One outlet vent may be proximate the other outlet vent to create laminar air flow.
