Abstract: A duct securing gun comprising: a holder for retaining a material, a fastener driver for installing at least east one fastener, a track to align the material with respect to at least one of the holder, and the fastener driver, wherein the fastener driver installs at least one fastener to secure at least one end of the material. The fastener driver comprising of a cutout to allow for the material and fastener to exit the track unobstructed the majority of the time.

Abstract: The invention is a semiautomatic stapler for affixing a tag from a roll of tags onto a surface. The stapler includes a rotatable pivot indexing arm for moving the tag into position for affixing onto the surface. A cylinder may be provided for rotating the indexing arm, and an index stop pin is provided for limiting pivotable movement of the rotatable pivot indexing arm. In this way, tags of various lengths may be affixed by the stapler. The roll of tags is held within the automatic stapler.

Abstract: An apparatus for stapling tags onto timber, comprising a tag feeder supplying tags in strip form to a tag applicator station which cuts the tag strip in individual tags and fastens the tags onto timber with wire staples. The tag applicator station includes a cutter transversely severing the tag strip against an anvil plate, and a leaf spring mounted on the cutter for engaging the tag which is being cut and retaining same against an abutment plate and a stapler gun applying a staple wire to a timber piece in registration with the tag applicator station through the tag held between the leaf spring and the abutment plate.

Abstract: A pneumatic label stapling gun including a label feed attachment and a cutting device which rapidly feeds a label into alignment with the staple gun head and severs the label from the remainder of the label roll after stapling. A pair of pneumatic cylinders are included and are connected to a common spool valve. One pneumatic cylinder is connected to a label advance head which reciprocates within the attachment housing to rapidly advance label into position. The other cylinder is connected to a cutter device which severs the stapled label from the remainder of the roll. The labels have spaced notches which are engaged by a protrusion carried by a spring which engages the label on its upward movement to prevent the labels from shifting the advance head as the head is retracted to engage the next label.
