Patent number: 11524396Abstract: A tool is provided for applying fasteners to a workpiece. The tool as a magazine that carries multiple fasteners and is carried by a housing. A driver blade is provided to drive a lead fastener into a workpiece. The driver blade has a driving edge with a profile that includes driving projections, having curved contact surface for contact with curved edges of the fastener, and a relief portion therebetween that is recessed relative to both projections and contact surfaces. Further, the tool includes a lockout assembly for limiting movement of the driver blade and contact trip, thereby limiting activation of the motor. The pusher may include a pusher lockout surface that is designed for movement in an opposite direction to a feed direction by the contact trip as well as configured to slide over a locking art of the contact trip when the fasteners are empty or nearly empty.Type: GrantFiled: February 28, 2020Date of Patent: December 13, 2022Assignee: BLACK & DECKER, INC.Inventors: Daniel Hegarty, Michael Justis

Patent number: 6925849Abstract: A stapler anvil and method for clinching a staple is disclosed. The anvil includes a body having a well. The well has an axis extending between the legs of a staple and is defined by a first surface having a first portion along which the first leg of the staple is directed as the staple is being clinched, and a second portion extending substantially at an angle relative to the first portion to direct the second leg of the staple at least partially away from the axis as the staple is clinched. The well is further defined by a second surface spaced from the first surface. The second surface is configured to redirect the second leg of the staple at least partially back toward the axis after the second leg has been directed at least partially away from the axis by the second portion of the first surface.Type: GrantFiled: September 10, 2002Date of Patent: August 9, 2005Assignee: ACCO Brands, Inc.Inventor: Anthony Jairam

Patent number: 4550494Abstract: The method of assembling lead-mounted electric components such as DIP 18 in automated fashion to a printed circuit board 14 is accomplished by building up a crimping tool (FIG. 7) comprising a base 28 with crimping anvils 12, 20, 22, 24, by selectively positioning and orienting the anvils on the base while the base is energized to provide a moderately low strength field, and the base is then energized to provide an adequately high strength magnetic field to retain the anvils properly during the subsequent steps of mounting the components to the board and crimping the leads to produce a particular type of board. After the requisite number of boards of a particular type are built, the anvils are removed to storage and the base is rebuilt to provide a different array of anvils for a different board.Type: GrantFiled: June 22, 1984Date of Patent: November 5, 1985Assignee: Westinghouse Electric Corp.Inventor: Robert S.

Patent number: 4402445Abstract: A surgical fastener of plastic or plastic-like material includes initially separate fastener and retainer members. The fastener member has at least two parallel prongs, each of which fits into a respective one of at least two apertures in the retainer member. The prongs twist as they enter the apertures. Then the prongs return to their initial orientation in which they interlock with the retainer member to form a finished fastener. The fastener is applied by forcing the fastener member prongs through the tissue to be fastened with the aid of metal pins contiguous with each prong. The pins are automatically withdrawn from the tissue after the prongs interlock with the retainer member and before the fastened tissue is removed from the fastener applying apparatus.Type: GrantFiled: October 9, 1981Date of Patent: September 6, 1983Assignee: United States Surgical CorporationInventor: David T.
