<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To securely return a forming plate to a waiting position by easily detaching the forming plate from a medical staple after bending the medical staple without changing a compression spring to the one with strong spring force. <P>SOLUTION: In the stapler, an anvil 11, on which the center of a crown 12a of the staple 12 is placed, is formed on an ejecting part 5 of the staple 12, and the forming plate 8 with a shaping groove 13 opened at the lower end is disposed above the anvil 11 in such a way as movable in the vertical direction. The stapler also has a return preventive projection 27 between the anvil 11 and the forming plate 8 for preventing the staple inside the shaping groove 13 from returning in the return operation after a wound is sutured as the forming plate 8 is moved downward by an operating lever 2 to bend both sides of the crown 12a of the staple 12 on the anvil 11 to the inner side of the shaping groove 13. The shaping groove 13 is formed in a fan shape, gently expanding from the groove bottom 14 toward the opening end. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT |
