Patent number: 7195141Abstract: A stapler has a base section and a stapling unit. The stapling unit is pivotally attached to the base section, and the base section is pivotally attached to a baseplate. In an initial position, the base section is fixed relative to the baseplate through a releasable locking mechanism connected to the baseplate and a base section. The base section has pivoting bending arms in an area underneath a support surface for a workpiece to be stapled. When a driver has driven a staple into the workpiece to a position in which the crown of the staple is in contact with the workpiece, the locking mechanism is released, and the base section pivots and is tilted against the baseplate, causing the bending arms to pivot so that the legs of the staple are bent into a position against the workpiece. A cutting pad disposed in an area between the bending arms interacts with the bending arms to cut off excess length of the staple legs.Type: GrantFiled: February 13, 2006Date of Patent: March 27, 2007Assignee: Isaberg Rapid ABInventors: Martin Elonsson, Peter Johansson

Patent number: 6986449Abstract: A staple-former (11) in a stapler (1) that uses a driver blade (10) to drive staples (17), preferably into a sheaf of paper (16). The stapler contains a magazine (7) of staple blanks (8). A feed device (6) advances staple blanks onto an integral bending die (15) for bending into staple shape. Each staple has a first and a second leg (18, 19) and a crown portion (20). The staple-former (11) includes first and second leg-bending parts (24, 26) and crown-forming part (28). A staple forms when a drive device (12, 13, 14), moves the leg-bending parts (24, 26) and the crown-forming part over the bending die (15) causing a staple blank (8) to assume a staple shape. The staple-former then reciprocates to its starting positions, the staple advances to the driver blade (10), and a biasing element (32) urges the crown-forming part (28) away from the staple-former (11).Type: GrantFiled: September 13, 2002Date of Patent: January 17, 2006Assignee: Isaberg Rapid ABInventors: Olle Strååt, Marcus Borjesson

Patent number: 6838642Abstract: The invention relates to an applicator comprising a) an elongated chamber (3) having an opening for a glue stick and a nozzle (6) for distributing melted glue, b) means for gradually pushing the stick into the chamber (3) and c) two heating elements (131, 132), each of which comprises a channel (151, 152) made from an electrically resistant material and which can be connected to an electrical power source. Said channel (151, 152) is formed on an electrically insulated surface of a substrate (141, 142) which is arranged so as to be in thermal contact with a mass of glue contained in the chamber (3). The heating element (131, 132) is applied against an external conformal surface (21, 22) of a heating body (2), one surface of which defines said chamber (3). The heating body (2) is made from a heat-conducting material.Type: GrantFiled: January 31, 2002Date of Patent: January 4, 2005Assignee: Isaberg Rapid ABInventor: Francis Richardot

Publication number: 20030201298Abstract: Staple forming arrangement (11) forming part of a stapler (1) in which a workpiece (6), primarily a sheaf of papers, is stapled together. The arrangement includes a bending punch (15), which is driven by a drive mechanism (12,13) and which bends elongated staple blanks (8) over a bending cushion (15). The staple blanks, which are stored in a magazine (7) in the stapler and are fed to the bending cushion by an integral feeding device (14), are bent essentially into a U-shape having a crown (24) and a first leg (25) and a second leg (26), respectively and whereupon the bending punch is withdrawn from the bent staple by the drive mechanism. After the withdrawal of the bending punch from the bent staple, the bent staple is fed by the feeding device to a staple guide channel (27) in which the staple is driven by a drive blade (17) incorporated in the stapler into the multi-piece workpiece in order to staple the pieces together.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 26, 2003Publication date: October 30, 2003Applicant: ISABERG RAPID ABInventor: Olle Straat
