Title:
SPRING ENERGIZED DESKTOP STAPLER
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2005044520
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A desktop stapler includes an automatic opening staple track (80) whereby when the stapler is opened by pivoting the body (10) about the base (20), the track is de-latched by ribs (128) of the base, and the track slides out from a chamber within the body. The stapler includes a track alignment system that holds the front of the body precisely over the anvil (57) by use of forward and rear torque arm contact areas between the base and track. The stapler also features a striker (100) bottom edge that is shaped to follow the curved shape of the anvil so that the striker may enter the anvil recess without impacting the anvil. A staple chamber in the stapler has staple exit ribs (147) that allow only one staple at a time to be ejected from the staple chamber.
