Magnetically Detachable Stapler Device
A magnetically detachable stapler device is provided that utilizes a bottom housing having a first magnetic coupling element. The first magnetic coupling element utilizes a first low friction material layer disposed thereupon. The stapler device utilizes a top housing having a coupling base structure, a magazine and a hammer. At least one of the top housing, the magazine and the hammer moves relative the coupling base structure. The coupling base structure utilizes a second magnetic coupling element which itself has a second low friction material layer disposed thereupon.
Medical implant delivery system and related methods
A fastener delivery tool may comprise a sheath assembly having at least one position retention member proximate a distal end of the sheath assembly, and a handle assembly coupled to a proximal end of the sheath assembly, the handle assembly comprising a housing, a trigger handle, and an insert connector. An external force applied to the trigger handle may cause displacement of the trigger handle relative to a rest position, and displacement of the trigger handle from the rest position within a first displacement range may impart a first amount of force on the insert connector relative to the applied external force and displacement of the trigger handle from the rest position within a second displacement range may impart a second amount of force on the insert connector relative to the applied external force, with the first amount of force being greater than the second amount of force.
Stapling Device
Various embodiments of the present disclosure provide a battery-powered stapling tool.
Stapler
A stapler includes a striking part which causes a pair of staple legs to penetrate a sheet bundle, a bending part which bends the staple legs at a first position such that tips of the staple legs are directed inwardly, and a clincher part which bends the staple legs at a second position located closer to the sheet bundle than the first position to be entirely directed inwardly. The bending part includes a first part disposed on an inner side of the staple legs and having a first tip portion facing the staple legs at the first position, a second part disposed on an outer side of the staple legs and having a second tip portion facing the staple legs on a non-sheet bundle side than the first position, and a moving part which moves at least one of the first and second parts toward the staple legs.
Staple cartridges for forming staples having differing formed staple heights
A staple cartridge for use with a stapling device that has an actuator that is selectively actuatable in an axial direction and an anvil portion that is selectively movable between open and closed positions is disclosed. Various embodiments of the present invention include a cartridge body that movably supports first and second staple drivers. The staple drivers each support a staple thereon and serve to drive the staples into forming contact with the anvil upon actuation by the actuator. The various embodiments of the present invention enable the final formed heights of the staples to be varied without the need to use different sizes of staples.
STAPLE
A stapler includes a handle unit connected to a driver unit by a transmission shaft portion provided between a fulcrum shaft portion and a driver, and configured to move the driver unit; a camshaft provided to a clincher unit; a cam groove portion provided to the handle unit, configured to permit the camshaft to enter, and having one open end portion to enable to the camshaft to be inserted/pulled out; a guide convex portion provided to the clincher unit, and a guide concave portion provided to the handle unit and configured to restrict a movement path of the handle unit with respect to the clincher unit.
Electric stapler
An electric stapler includes a main body, a handle, a striking assembly, and a safety mechanism between the main body and the handle. The handle is movable with respect to the main body between an original position and an unlock position. The striking assembly includes a striking mechanism for striking the staple out and a trigger switch on the handle for triggering the striking mechanism. The trigger switch has a strikable state and a locking state. When the handle is at the original position, the safety mechanism is at a locking mode to make the trigger switch at the locking state. When the handle is at the unlock position, the safety mechanism is at an unlock mode to make the trigger switch at the strikable state. An angle between the moving direction of the handle and the striking direction is smaller than 90 degrees.
Staple pusher assembly and method of installing same
A stapler includes a base, a magazine coupled to the base and configured to house staples, and a staple pusher assembly coupled with the magazine and operable to bias staples in the magazine toward a first end of the magazine where staples are driven out of the magazine. The staple pusher assembly includes a staple pusher defining a cavity, and a constant force spring having a first end coupled to the magazine and a second end that is coiled within the cavity in the staple pusher.
Stapler
A stapler is provided, including: a main body, a striking mechanism, a staple straightening mechanism and a linkage mechanism. The main body includes an inner space and a staple outlet. The striking mechanism is disposed in the inner space and includes a striking member configured to strike a staple and a driving member by which the striking member is driven to move relative to the staple outlet. The staple straightening mechanism is disposed on the main body and includes an aperture corresponding to the staple outlet, at least one abutting member being movable within the aperture and a force accumulating assembly which is movable toward the aperture. The linkage mechanism is disposed in the inner space. The driving member and the force accumulating assembly are connected with the linkage mechanism and comovable with each other.
