Abstract: A stapler apparatus of the type using continuous belt-formed staples 200 includes a staple feed claw 25 for advancing the staples 200 sequentially to a stapling position 103, and a drive means 50 for driving the staples 200 drawn to the stapling position 103. A clincher means 40 bends the ends of the staples 200 driven into the sheets and pivots a staple feed pawl 25 interlocked to the staple bending operation of the clincher means 40 for sequentially feeding the staples 200 to the stapling position 103. This construction lightens the load on the drive means to staple sheet stacks, facilitates smooth driving operation of the drive means, and reduces the occurrences of trouble.

Abstract: A stapler apparatus includes a cartridge that stores staples, a staple driving unit for engaging and driving staples, an urging member to urge the cartridge toward the staple driving unit, and an interlocking mechanism movable upon installation of the cartridge to apply the urging member to the cartridge. The construction provides a stapler apparatus that allows the easy mounting of a cartridge and that can effectively urge a cartridge toward the punching station of the stapler.

Abstract: A staple storage unit (10/20) allows the effective and easy removal of jammed staples (200) from the inside of the apparatus (100) by attracting jammed staples to the staple storage unit. The staple storage unit can be removed from the stapler apparatus frame. The staple storage unit is detachably mounted to a stapler apparatus provided with a storage unit (10) storing staples and a guide unit (20) to guide staples in this storage unit to a staple driving unit (103). The stapler includes staple attracting member (24) in the apex of a staple driving unit on the guide unit (20).

Abstract: A stapler apparatus includes a cartridge 10 storing staples 200 detachably supported, a staple driving unit 103 in the front direction of the cartridge mounting, an urging means 205 to urge the cartridge 10 to the staple punching side, and an interlocking means 96 mounted and linked to the cartridge 10 staple punching unit 103 to operate the urging means 205 onto the cartridge 10. The construction provides a stapler apparatus that allows the easy mounting of a cartridge and that can effectively urge a cartridge toward the punching station of the cartridge.

Abstract: A stapling device for automatically binding a set of sheets is formed of a needle driving unit for driving a needle in the set of the sheets; a bending unit for bending the driven needle; two pairs of front and rear guide shafts for supporting the needle driving unit and the bending unit and guiding movements of these units in a sheet width direction; and moving shafts for moving these units along the guide shafts in the sheet width direction. By disposing each moving shaft between the front and rear guide shafts, each unit can be moved in the sheet width direction stably and smoothly, and the entire device can be structured small. Also, in at least one of the units, a small space is formed for a moving mechanism for at least one of needle driving device and bending device in a sheet thickness direction, to thereby achieve a further miniaturization of the entire device.

Abstract: The invention discloses a cinecamera capable of synchronous recording wherein a swingable arm carrying a pinch roller at one end thereof is operatively coupled to a shutter release locking lever in such a manner that when the lever is placed in the shutter release locking position for preventing shooting, the pinch roller may be moved away from a capstan by a sufficient distance to permit the smooth loading and unloading of a film cartridge, but when the lever is switched to the release position for permitting the shooting the arm may be swung to displace the pinch roller to a position very closely spaced from the capstan. The construction of the cinecamera may be remarkably simplified as compared with the conventional cinecameras wherein the pinch roller arm is operatively coupled to the cover or lid of the camera.

Abstract: A movie camera of the kind adapted for simultaneous motion picture and magnetic sound recording on a film in a cartridge, in which sound recording means including a magnetic recording head and a capstan are disposed in the camera body, and a swingable lever carrying sound recording means including a pinch roller is disposed in the camera body to be held in a retracted position when the cover of the camera is fully opened and kept in such position for the loading and unloading of the cartridge. In the movie camera, means are provided so that the pinch roller carried by the swingable lever can be urged to a position closely adjacent to the capstan and held temporarily in such position when the cartridge is loaded and the cover is closed, and then the pinch roller can be urged further toward the capstan to bring the sound recording track portion of the film into pressure contact with the capstan in response to the manipulation of the release for starting the motion picture taking operation.

Abstract: A movie camera capable of magnetic recording on a loaded film simultaneously with filming includes a pinch roller carried by a bracket which is swingable relatively to the camera body. The pinch roller is movable relatively to the bracket. The bracket is movable in response to the closing operation of a lateral cover of the camera to a position where the pinch roller is adjacent to a capstan and restrained immovably in the position. In response to the operation of a release element for initiating recording, the pinch roller is moved by a spring member into rolling engagement with the film to urge the same into contact with the capstan for recording on the film along a recording track.
