A stapling device includes an anvil leg, an anvil plate, a staple magazine, which can be pivoted relative to the anvil leg about a transverse axis, a driver for carrying out stapling through a gap at the front end of the staple magazine, and an actuation apparatus for acting upon the driver toward the anvil plate. The actuation apparatus has a solenoid and a striking pin for acting upon a driver anvil fixedly connected to the driver, the striking pin being movable by the solenoid. Between the gap and the transverse axis, the staple magazine is supported on the anvil leg by a magazine spring. The magazine spring is configured such that the staple magazine rests on the anvil leg or on the anvil plate due to a force of gravity acting on the staple magazine and overcoming a spring force of the magazine spring.

Stapling device

A holding device for a tablet computer has a lower part spanning a setting-up surface for setting it up on a tabletop and an upper part which can be rotated with respect to the lower part about a rotation axis extending substantially perpendicularly to the setting-up surface, which upper part has a first and a second bearing surface for the tablet computer, wherein each of the bearing surfaces defines a position of the tablet computer in which it is inclined at an acute angle to the setting-up surface, and wherein the tablet computer in the position defined by the first bearing surface is inclined at a greater angle to the setting-up surface than in the position defined by the second bearing surface.

A stapling device includes an anvil arm bearing an anvil plate; a magazine pivotable about a transverse pivot on a bearing block in the rearward region of the anvil arm; and an arm bearing a driver for feeding the staples through a discharge slot at the front end of the magazine and pivotable about the transverse pivot. The discharge slot extends transversely through a bottom wall of the magazine between the magazine side walls which run from the front end towards the bearing block and is bounded with respect to the magazine front end by a stop plate for the staples. The discharge slot is closed with respect to the side walls of the magazine. The magazine is provided on each of its side walls and on each side of the discharge slot with a prong projecting from the bottom wall.

Stapler

A paper punch includes a base part which has a positioning surface on the bottom side thereof for positioning the same on a table top. At least two punching tools are displaceably supported with respect to the base part to punch holes into documents. A hand-held applies pressure on the punching tools and is supported about a pivot axis in a limited pivoting manner by way of a front region of the base part. The base part has a grip cutout which is open toward the rear side of the base part and which is delimited toward the top by a ceiling wall extending at a distance from the positioning surface and toward the front by a transverse wall.

A stapler has an anvil leg that supports an anvil plate in the front region, a staple magazine which can be swivelled to a limited degree about a transverse pin on a bearing block in the rear region of the anvil leg, and a driver leg which can be swivelled to a limited degree relative to the staple magazine and the anvil leg about the transverse pin. The driver leg supports a driver for guiding the staples through a gap at the front end of the staple magazine. The stapler has at least one guiding element which is arranged between the anvil plate and the bearing block. The guiding element longitudinally extends between the anvil leg and the staple magazine, is fixedly connected to the anvil leg, and is guided in a longitudinally movable manner within a guiding opening in a bottom wall of the staple magazine.

The device includes an elongated electrical heating unit (20) whose length matches the length of an elongated opening in the device, and has a switching system to activate an electrical circuit at the moment when sheets to be bound are placed on the heating unit (20). Heating unit (20) is wired in series with a switch (11) in the switching system and a heating current switch (31). Means are provided to keep this heating current switch (31) turned on when the switching system is turned on. The device includes a comparator (34) whose input is connected to a temperature sensor (26); when a predetermined upper temperature limit (T.sub.max) is reached it turns off the heating current switch (31). There is also a provision so that after the heating current switch (31) is turned off it is kept off until the switch (11) in the switching system has been switched off and then on again.
