Abstract
The retaining device of a wire-section dispenser has a tongue-like first retaining element and a second retaining element which form boundaries for a gap. The second retaining element can be moved out of a rest position into a clamping position, which narrows the gap, and back again. When the second retaining element is located in the rest position, a stapling wire is advanced into the gap and then fixedly clamped by displacing the second retaining element into the clamping position. A cutting element, which severs the continuous stapling wire into wire sections, is synchronously moved with the second retaining element. The staple guide of a stapling head engages with its carry-along member, the wire section and moves it in the direction of rotation, overcoming the retaining force in doing so.
