Abstract:
An electric stapler is configured to perform binding processing including a plurality of processes. The electric stapler includes: a binding unit configured to execute the binding processing for a sheet bundle; a motor configured to drive the binding unit; and a control unit configured to control the motor. The control unit is configured to control the motor; thereby adjusting processing times of the processes so that a binding processing time after the binding processing by the binding unit starts until the binding processing is completed falls within a predetermined range.

A cartridge includes a staple support part provided on a front end face. The staple support part includes an inclined surface protruding obliquely from the front end face in a striking direction, and is configured to support a crown portion of the staple with the inclined surface and a pair of leg portions of the staple with side edge portions of the inclined surface. The side edge portion has: a connection portion continuing to the inclined surface and extending from the inclined surface in an opposite direction to a feeding direction of the staple, by a first length; and a leg portion contact portion extending with being folded from a tip end portion of the connection portion in the feeding direction by at least the first length, and configured to support corresponding one of the pair of leg portions from an inner side thereof.
Abstract:
The staple receiving portion includes a clamping potion exposed to the paper clamping portion and configured to clamp the sheets of paper, and a staple guide portion provided on an end portion of the clamping portion at a side thereof, on which the staple striking portion is located, and configured to guide the staple struck by the staple striking portion. The clamping portion is made configured of a resin material. The staple guide portion includes a staple leg support member provided on a side of the clamping portion opposite to a side thereof, on which the sheets of paper are clamped, and configured to support the staple legs of the staple struck by the staple striking portion, and a guide member provided to oppose the staple leg support member, the staple leg support member and the guide member are made configured of a metal material.
Abstract:
A staple refill includes a refill body accommodating sheet-type connected staples. The refill body includes a bottom wall, a right wall provided on a right side of the bottom wall, a left wall provided on a left side of the bottom wall, and a front wall provided on front sides of the right and left walls. A pressing member is provided in the refill body in a movable manner to press the sheet-type connected staples, the pressing member including a first guide projection at a front end of the pressing member configured to contact an inner surface of the front wall.
Abstract:
An electric stapler includes a staple sheet storage portion for storing a stack of staple sheets, a magazine storage portion disposed on a rear side of the staple sheet storage portion to store a staple magazine, a first staple feed mechanism operable to pull out a staple sheet from the staple magazine and to feed the staple sheet to the staple sheet storage portion, and a second staple feed mechanism operable to pull out the staple sheet from the staple sheet storage portion and to feed the staple sheet to a driver unit. According to this configuration, a continuous binding processing beyond a capacity of the staple magazine becomes possible by suitably replacing the staple magazine.
Abstract:
An electric stapler is operated by the steps of: a paper bundle pinching step of relatively moving a table part (10) and a driver unit (3) and also pinching a paper bundle (19); a staple separation step of folding a staple into U-shape by a forming plate (8) and also separating the folded U-shape staple (22) from a staple sheet (20) by moving a driver (7); a penetration step of penetrating legs (24) of the staple (22) into the paper bundle (19) by further moving the driver (7); a clinch step of inward folding the legs (24) penetrating through the paper bundle (19) by a clinch device (5); and a paper bundle releasing step of releasing the paper bundle (19). A relative movement of the table part (10) and the driver unit (3), the forming plate (8), the driver (7), and the clinch device are powered by a single motor (13). A driving speed of the motor (13) in the steps excluding the penetration step and the clinch step is slower than the driving speed of the motor (13) in the penetration step and the clinch step.
Abstract:
The present invention provides an improved electric stapler structure, structured to include a housing and a staple slot fixing piece. A driving arm is located at one side within a mount corresponding to staple pushing pieces of the staple slot fixing piece. The staple pushing pieces are used to cause a spring piece of a pressure piece to squeeze a staple. Furthermore, a central bearing base is located at another side of the mount, so that when a stop piece of a hook ring separates from an inverted hook portion of the central bearing base, then a groove and buffering of a stop portion is used to block a protruding piece of a blocking piece, thereby preventing the central bearing base from flicking out in a split second due to the elastic force of a pull piece spring, and thus safeguarding safety of the user during use.
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:
The present invention provides a sheet binding apparatus for effecting stapling operation by rotation of a motor including a current measuring device for measuring a current of the motor, a first timing output device for defining the timing of the stapling operation, a second timing output device for effecting the output at a different timing from an output timing of the first timing output device, a calculation device for measuring outputs of the current measuring device in response to signals from the first and second timing output devices to seek the difference between the measured values, a base current measuring device capable of setting a current value in advance on which the judgement of the presence/absence of a needle is based, and a discriminating device for comparing an output value from the calculation device with a set value of the base current value setting device to judge the presence/absence of the needle.
Abstract:
An electric stapler is provided which comprises a driving plate (7) for driving out a staple from a driving position while reciprocating, a delivering mechanism for delivering a sheet-staple (11) to the driving position interrelatedly with a reciprocating motion of the driving plate, a working piece (24) which is rotated by a push given by a staple occupying the front row of the sheet-staple (11) when the front staple reaches the driving position, and a sensor (25) for detecting the rotation of the working piece (24). The driving plate (7) returns to its initial position in accordance with a detection signal output by the sensor (25).
