A stapler is provided, including: a main body, having a front end and a rear end; a magazine, disposed in the main body having an outlet end; a striker, disposed in the main body and located between the front end and the outlet end along the longitudinal direction; a driving mechanism, connected to the striker to optionally drive the striker to strike the staple; a pressing element, located in the main body and between the striker and the outlet end along the longitudinal direction, the pressing element being movable between an original position and a pressed position, the original position being higher than the pressed position, the pressing element having a tendency to stay on the original position, when the pressing element is located on the pressed position, the pressing element presses the staples which are exposed outside the outlet end of the magazine.

A carrier with a fastener depth limiter. The carrier may be used to drive fasteners of a staple type. Carriers may include a fastener holder and a fastener depth limiter securable to the holder. The holder may include an axial body with distal and proximal ends, a fastener-receiving opening in the distal end normal to the axis, and an anvil-receiving opening in which an anvil repeatedly strikes a fastener held by the holder as the holder retracts during fastener driving. The fastener depth limiter may be a collar and the collar may be axially adjustable along the holder to enable user selection of the depth limitation. A workpiece-contacting distal end of a collar-type depth limiter may be spaced axially outward from the distal end of the holder a distance approximately the same as a thickness dimension of the fastener, which may be the thickness dimension of the crown of a staple-type fastener. The carrier enables consistent driving of each and every fastener relative to a cable or other workpiece thereby providing securement without damage that could be caused by excessive contact with the crown.

A composite laminate reinforcing tool may be used to form a reinforced joint at a bond line of a composite laminate structure. The tool may hold one or more clips having posts, and the tool may be positioned along the bond line between at least two composite laminate elements. Joint sections of the clip may be heated to increase a pliability of the joint section, and the tool may be actuated to drive the post through the at least two composite laminate elements. The posts may be deflected toward a base of the clip, thereby to seat the clip. The reinforced composite laminate structure may then be cured.

A power tool including a housing and a motor housed in the housing. There is a spring engine housed in the housing and a driver blade driven by the spring engine. Additionally, the power tool holds a pipe clamp configured to be driven into a workpiece by the driver blade.

A fastener driver includes a magazine having a magazine cover and a magazine body. The magazine cover includes a top surface having an opening defined therein. The magazine body is slidably movable relative to the magazine cover from a closed position to an open position. A latch is coupled to the top surface of the magazine cover and extends through the opening in the top surface of the magazine cover. The latch includes a latch projection that defines a first contact surface. A pusher body is slidably coupled to the magazine body and includes an arm member that defines a second contact surface. A biasing member biases the pusher toward a nosepiece when the magazine body is in the closed position. The first and second contact surfaces are engageable to hold the pusher body in a latched position when the magazine body is in the open position.

A staple device with an extension rod allows an installer to use the device to hold and pull tension on a string of wired lights and secure them to a surface, such as the underside of eaves or soffits on a dwelling. The activation of the stapling device is achieved by a pushing motion against the surface to be stapled to rather than the squeezing motion of current stapling devices. The staple device also provides greater mobility to the installer as opposed to the current method of positioning and repositioning a ladder around the base of the dwelling. The present invention allows the installer to quickly traverse the base of the dwelling and install the holiday lights in a more efficient manner than with the use of a ladder and squeeze-type staple staplers.
