Abstract
The stapler includes a main body, a trigger, a striking mechanism, and a stopping plate. The main body has an outlet at a first end portion. The trigger is pivotally connected to the main body with an end, and the other end extends toward the first end portion for being pressed toward the main body. The striking mechanism includes a striker at the first end portion and a releasing unit for releasing the striker. The trigger switches the releasing unit between a release mode and an accumulating mode so that the striker can move toward the outlet. The striker has a concave face facing the outlet for striking a staple unit. The stopping plate is disposed on the first end portion and is for the staple unit to abut against horizontally. The stopping plate has at least one recess at an end thereof facing the outlet.
Claims8
A stapler, including:
- a main body, having an outlet at a first end portion thereof;
- a trigger, the trigger being pivotally connected to the main body with an end thereof, an other end of the trigger extending toward the first end portion and being adapted for being pressed toward the main body;
- a striking mechanism, including a striker disposed on the first end portion and a releasing unit which is able to release the striker, the trigger being adapted for switching the releasing unit between a release mode and an accumulating mode so that the striker is able to move toward the outlet, the striker having a concave face facing the outlet, the concave face being adapted for striking a staple unit;
- and
- a stopping plate, disposed on the first end portion, the stopping plate being adapted for the staple unit to abut against along a direction traversing a movement direction of the striker, the stopping plate having at least one recess at an end thereof facing the outlet;
- wherein the concave face of the striker comprises at least two arc grooves having different curvatures.
A stapler, including:
- a main body, having an outlet at a first end portion thereof;
- a trigger, the trigger being pivotally connected to the main body with an end thereof, an other end of the trigger extending toward the first end portion and being adapted for being pressed toward the main body;
- a striking mechanism, including a striker disposed on the first end portion and a releasing unit which is able to release the striker, the trigger being adapted for switching the releasing unit between a release mode and an accumulating mode so that the striker is able to move toward the outlet, the striker having a concave face facing the outlet, the concave face being adapted for striking a staple unit;
- and
- a stopping plate, disposed on the first end portion, the stopping plate being adapted for the staple unit to abut against along a direction traversing a movement direction of the striker, the stopping plate having at least one recess at an end thereof facing the outlet;
- wherein the main body has a bottom face, the bottom face is adapted for abutting against a base face, and at least part of the recess of the stopping plate is protruded from the bottom face, wherein the stopping plate is movable along a thickness direction traversing the bottom face.
A stapler, including:
- a main body, having an outlet at a first end portion thereof;
- a trigger, the trigger being pivotally connected to the main body with an end thereof, an other end of the trigger extending toward the first end portion and being adapted for being pressed toward the main body;
- a striking mechanism, including a striker disposed on the first end portion and a releasing unit which is able to release the striker, the trigger being adapted for switching the releasing unit between a release mode and an accumulating mode so that the striker is able to move toward the outlet, the striker having a concave face facing the outlet, the concave face being adapted for striking a staple unit;
- and
- a stopping plate, disposed on the first end portion, the stopping plate being adapted for the staple unit to abut against along a direction traversing a movement direction of the striker, the stopping plate having at least one recess at an end thereof facing the outlet;
- wherein the concave face of the striker has a smaller curvature than a curvature of the recess of the stopping plate.
