<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a device for use as an attachment to a driver of an electromechanical device. <P>SOLUTION: This device is provided with an upper jaw (80) and a lower jaw (50) which can separate from and close to each other in a continuous parallel alignment. The upper jaw (80) includes a series of staple guides corresponding to one or more staples in a removable tray (220) for the staples disposed within the lower jaw (50). A blade (51) and wedges (270) having a threaded bore travel upon a matching threaded shaft (260) in a channel (250) disposed in the lower jaw (50) below the staple tray (220). Rotation of the threaded shaft (260) causes movement of the wedge (270) through the channel (250), the sloped surface of the wedge (270) contacts the staples to push the staples against the staple guide, and the staples are closed. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT |
