[0051] The first right plane 1001 of the cutting knife positioning slider 10 relative to the forward direction of firing is coplanar with the second right plane 806 of the cutting knife running groove 801. The cutting knife positioning slider 10 and the cutting knife running groove 801 on the nail magazine 8 form a new cutting knife running groove 8001, that is, a combined cutting knife running groove 8001. The cutting knife component 13 can run in the combined cutting knife running groove 8001, which can make the cutting knife connecting spring 5 run in the combined cutting knife running groove 8001 until it is reset to its original position, ensuring that the above-mentioned cutting knife 3 can be reset in place, safely and reliably.
[0052] Exemplary devices
[0053] like Figures 1 to 15 shown.
[0054] For example, Figure 1 As shown, the disposable cutting blade mechanism of the stapler consists of an anvil 1, a magazine anvil 2, a cutting blade 3, a front connecting member 4, a cutting blade connecting spring 5, a rear connecting member 6, a protective support plate 7, a magazine 8, a magazine rear cover 9, a cutting blade positioning slider 10, a slider return spring 11, and a slider center rod 12. The anvil 1 is assembled and connected to the magazine base 2 and fixed to the front end of the stapler. The anvil 1 can reciprocate and rotate on the magazine base 2 in the firing direction. The rear connecting member 6 is assembled and connected to the magazine base 2 and, under the action of the stapler firing mechanism, can reciprocate along the stapler in the firing direction. The cutting blade positioning slider 10, the slider return spring 11, and the slider center rod 12 are assembled and fixed to the magazine base 2. The interaction between the slider return spring 11 and the anvil 1 allows the cutting blade positioning slider 10 to reciprocate axially along the slider center rod 12.
[0055] Exemplary, disposable cutting knife stapler cartridge assembly and its stapler components:
[0056] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the stapler assembly with a disposable cutter includes a stapler 8, a cutter 3, a front connector 4 for the cutter, and a cutter connecting spring 5. The stapler includes a stapler 1, a rear connector 6 for the cutter, a protective support plate 7, a rear cover 9 for the stapler, and a cutter positioning slider 10. The rear cover 9 is assembled and connected to the stapler 8 and fixed to the stapler 8. The cutter connecting spring 5 is welded to the rear end of the cutter 3 in the firing direction, forming a cutter component 13.
[0057] The rear end of the cutting blade 3 is provided with a second protrusion 311. The second protrusion 311 is a wing-shaped protrusion that allows the cutting blade connecting spring 5 to elastically deform only along the third left plane 304 in the direction of the cutting blade edge 306 of the cutting blade 3. The cutting blade component 13 and the cutting blade front connecting member 4 are installed together in the cutting blade running groove 801 of the nail magazine 8. The third front end surface 301 of the cutting blade 3 facing the firing direction mates with the second rear end surface 403 of the cutting blade front connecting member 4. Initially, the cutting knife component 13 is installed at the rear end of the cutting knife running groove 801 in the firing direction, and the third protrusions 302 are provided on both sides of the cutting knife 3. The third protrusion 302 is provided with a first rear end face 303 along the firing direction, and the first rear end face 303 is fitted with the fourth protrusion 802 at the rear end of the nail magazine 8, and the third left side plane 304 and the third right side plane 305 of the cutting knife are respectively fitted with the fifth left side plane 805 and the second right side plane 806 of the cutting knife running groove, and the cutting knife component 13 can move back and forth along the cutting knife running groove 801 in the firing direction. The protective support plate 7 is mounted on the nail magazine surface 803 between the nail magazine 8 and the nail anvil 1. The intermediate positioning beam 701 of the protective support plate 7 is mounted within the cutting blade running groove 801 of the nail magazine 8. The first front end surface 702 of the protective support plate 7 contacts and cooperates with the second front end surface 804 of the nail magazine 8 when the cutting blade 3 is moving in the firing direction. The third rear end surface 703 of the protective support plate 7 contacts and cooperates with the fourth front end surface 404 of the cutting blade front connecting member 4. The cutting blade connecting spring 5 is provided with a first protrusion 501, the protruding direction of the first protrusion 501 being perpendicular to the firing direction of the cutting blade 3. When the above-mentioned cutting knife component 13 is installed to the stapler, the above-mentioned first protrusion 501 on the above-mentioned cutting knife connecting spring piece 5 cooperates with the above-mentioned groove 602 of the above-mentioned cutting knife rear connecting piece 6, thereby realizing the elastic connection between the cutting knife connecting spring piece 5 and the above-mentioned cutting knife rear connecting piece 6. Furthermore, the above-mentioned first protrusion 501 is spherical, and the spherical protrusion cooperates with the groove, and the effect is more obvious, ensuring that the above-mentioned cutting knife 3 is reliably connected to the above-mentioned cutting knife rear connecting piece 6, and is conducive to the removal of the cutting knife from the stapler, ensuring the suitability of replacing the nail magazine assembly.
[0058] like Figure 1As shown, the first right side plane 1001 of the cutting blade positioning slider 10 relative to the firing direction aligns with the first left side plane 601 of the cutting blade rear connecting member 6 relative to the firing direction. The second left side plane 1002 of the cutting blade positioning slider 10 relative to the firing direction mates parallel to the inner side plane of the left arm of the magazine base 2 relative to the firing direction. The magazine rear cover 9 is assembled and connected to the magazine 8 and fixed to the magazine 8. The cutting blade connecting spring 5 is welded to the rear end groove 310 of the cutting blade 3 facing the firing direction, forming the cutting blade component 13. The third left side plane 304 of the cutting blade component 13 is coplanar with the fourth left side surface 502 of the cutting blade connecting spring 5. The right side surface of the cutting blade connecting spring 5 aligns with the first inner surface 309 of the cutting blade rear end groove 310. The cutting blade connecting spring 5 of the cutting blade component 13 can only elastically deform toward the fourth left side surface 502. The cutting blade component 13 and the cutting blade front connecting member 4 are installed together in the cutting blade running groove 801 of the nail magazine 8. The third front end surface 301 of the cutting blade 3 facing the firing direction is matched with the second rear end surface 403 of the cutting blade front connecting member 4. Initially, the cutting blade component 13 is installed at the rear end of the cutting blade running groove 801 facing the firing direction. The first rear end surface 303 of the third protrusions 302 on both sides of the cutting blade 3 is in contact with the fourth protrusion 802 at the rear end of the nail magazine 8. The fourth protrusion 802 is the end position of the cutting blade 3. During the firing process, the cutting blade component 13 can move back and forth along the cutting blade running groove 801 in the firing direction. The protective support plate 7 is mounted on the magazine surface 803 between the magazine 8 and the anvil 1. The intermediate positioning beam 701 of the protective support plate 7 is mounted within the magazine's cutter operating slot 801. The first front end surface 702 contacts and mates with the second front end surface 804 of the cutter 3, which is moving in the firing direction. The third rear end surface 703 contacts and mates with the fourth front end surface 404 of the cutter front connector 4. The cutter 3 contacts and mates with the cutter rear connector 6, which propels the cutter 3 forward in the firing direction. The first protrusion 501 on the cutter connecting spring 5 engages with the groove 602 of the cutter rear connector 6. The cutter rear connector 6 resets after the stapler completes its firing action. Through the connection between the cutter connecting spring 5 and the cutter rear connector 6, the cutter rear connector 6 resets the cutter 3. The nail magazine 8, the nail magazine rear cover 9, the cutting blade component 13, the cutting blade front connecting member 4 and the protective support plate 7 constitute a nail magazine assembly. The nail magazine assembly is an integral whole. When the cutting blade 3 is replaced, the cutting blade 3 is replaced together with the nail magazine assembly.
[0059] Exemplary positioning of the cutting knife on the nail magazine assembly:
[0060] The magazine rear cover 9 is secured to the bottom of the magazine 8 via snaps 901 on either side. A cutter blade connecting spring 5 is welded to the rear end of the cutter blade 3, in the firing direction, forming the cutter blade assembly 13. A second wing-shaped protrusion 311 is provided at the rear end of the cutter blade, allowing the cutter blade connecting spring 5 to deform elastically only along the left side 304, in the direction of the cutter blade edge 306. The cutter blade assembly 13 is mounted within the cutter blade operating slot 801 of the magazine 8. The third left side plane 304 and third right side plane 305 of the cutter blade align with the fifth left side plane 805 and second right side plane 806 of the cutter blade operating slot 801, respectively. The cutting blade 3 is provided with a third protrusion 302 on both sides. The third protrusion 302 is a square protrusion. The third protrusion 302 of the cutting blade is perpendicular to the third left plane 304 of the cutting blade. The first rear end surface 303 of the third protrusion 302 of the cutting blade along the firing direction is in contact with the fourth protrusion 802 at the rear end of the nail magazine 8. The bottom surface 307 of the third protrusion 302 on both sides of the cutting blade is in contact with the inner surface of the rear cover 9 of the nail magazine. The upper end surface 308 of the protrusion 302 on both sides of the cutting blade is in contact with the lower surface 807 of the bottom of the nail magazine. Figure 13 As shown, the cutter front connector 4 is installed in the nail magazine 8. It has a guide plate 402 perpendicular to its bottom surface. The guide plate 402 is inserted into the cutter running slot 801 in the nail magazine 8. The two side planes of the guide plate 402 align with the two side planes of the cutter running slot. The second rear end surface 403 of the guide plate 402, which is in the firing direction, aligns with the third front end surface 301 of the cutter, which is in the firing direction. The protective support plate 7 is installed on the nail magazine surface 803 between the nail magazine 8 and the nail anvil 1. The middle positioning beam 701 of the protective support plate 7 is installed in the cutter running slot 801 of the nail magazine 8. The front end surface 702 contacts and mates with the front end surface 804 of the cutter running slot, which is in the firing direction. The third rear end surface 703 contacts and mates with the fourth front end surface 404 of the cutter front connector 4. The interaction between the nail magazine 8, the nail magazine rear cover 9, the cutter front connector 4, and the protective support plate 7 precisely positions the cutter component 13 within the nail magazine 8.
[0061] Exemplary Methods
[0062] like Figures 1 to 15 shown.
[0063] Exemplary, the installation of the stapler assembly on the stapler and the connection between the cutting blade and the cutting blade rear connector:
[0064] Tilt the magazine assembly and first insert the end of the magazine 8 equipped with the cutter 3 into the magazine mounting slot 201 of the magazine base 2. Then, follow the direction of the magazine mounting slot 201 and insert the fifth protrusions 808 on both sides of the magazine into the front groove 202 of the magazine base until the lower surfaces 809 of the wings of the magazine 8 are aligned with the upper surfaces 203 of the magazine mounting slot 201 of the magazine base 2. When the magazine assembly is tilted and installed toward the magazine base, when the first protrusion 501 on the cutter connecting spring 5 contacts the cutter rear connecting member 6, the cutter connecting spring 5 is elastically deformed by the resistance of the cutter rear connecting member 6 and deforms toward the cutter third left flat surface 304. When the first protrusion 501 on the cutter connecting spring 5 fully enters the groove 602 of the cutter rear connecting member 6, the resistance of the cutter rear connecting member 6 is reduced and the cutter connecting spring 5 returns to its original shape. The first protrusion 501 of the cutting blade connecting spring piece 5 is hemispherical, and the corresponding groove 602 of the cutting blade rear connecting piece 6 is cylindrical. The hemispherical first protrusion 501 on the cutting blade connecting spring piece 5 is loosely matched with the cylindrical groove 602 of the cutting blade rear connecting piece 6.
[0065] Exemplary, firing and resetting of the cutting knife:
[0066] (1) Closing the stapler anvil 1: The stapler closing mechanism pushes the anvil 1 forward in the firing direction, while the anvil can rotate around the rotation axis, and the anvil is closed. The fifth rear end face 1003 of the cutting blade positioning slider 10 relative to the firing direction contacts and cooperates with the front arc surface of the sixth protrusion 102 on the anvil 1 relative to the firing direction. When the anvil 1 moves in the firing direction, the sixth protrusion 102 on the anvil 1 pushes the cutting blade positioning slider 10 in the firing direction. The fourth front end face 1004 of the cutting blade positioning slider 10 relative to the firing direction moves to the lower surfaces 809 of the two side wings of the staple magazine 8 relative to the firing direction. The first right side plane 1001 of the cutting blade positioning slider 10 relative to the firing direction is coplanar with the second right side plane 806 of the cutting blade running groove 801. The cutting blade positioning slider 10 and the cutting blade running groove 801 on the nail magazine 8 form a new cutting blade running groove 8001, namely, a combined cutting blade running groove 8001, within which the cutting blade assembly 13 can operate. The third left side 304 of the cutting blade 3 relative to the firing direction is flush with the fifth left side plane 805 of the cutting blade running groove on the nail magazine. The third right side plane 305 of the cutting blade 3 relative to the firing direction is flush with the second right side plane 806 of the cutting blade running groove on the nail magazine, and the cutting blade 3 fits into the cutting blade running groove 801 with a small clearance. When the cutting blade positioning slider 10 moves in the firing direction, the slider 10 compresses the slider return spring 11, and the slider return spring 11 acts as a pressure force on the cutting blade positioning slider 10.
[0067] (2) Firing and resetting of the cutting knife: After the stapler is closed, the stapler can be fired. When the stapler is firing, the firing mechanism of the stapler provides a driving force in the firing forward direction to the cutting knife rear connecting member 6, and the cutting knife rear connecting member 6 moves in the firing forward direction. The cutting knife component 13 contacts and cooperates with the end face of the cutting knife rear connecting member 6. Under the push of the cutting knife rear connecting member 6, the cutting knife component 13 moves in the firing forward direction, completing the cutting knife firing and cutting operation of the stapler. When the firing is completed, the firing mechanism of the stapler pulls the cutting knife rear connecting member 6 back to its original position in the opposite direction of the firing forward direction. The spherical first protrusion 501 of the cutting knife connecting spring 5 on the cutting knife component 13 is connected with the groove 602 of the cutting knife rear connecting member 6. The cutting knife rear connecting member 6 can provide a pulling force to the cutting knife 3 when resetting. Since the first protrusion 501 of the cutting blade connecting spring 5 is spherical, when the cutting blade rear connector 6 pulls the cutting blade connecting spring 5, the cutting blade connecting spring 5 is elastically deformed toward the fifth left plane 805 of the cutting blade running groove 801, and the spherical first protrusion 501 on the cutting blade connecting spring 5 tends to separate from the cutting blade rear connector 6. Since the fourth left side 502 of the cutting blade connecting spring 5 is always in contact with the fifth left side 805 of the cutting blade running groove 801, and the cutting blade running groove 801 is a rigid body, the left side of the cutting blade running groove 801 prevents the cutting blade connecting spring 5 from elastically deforming, ensuring that the first protrusion 501 of the cutting blade connecting spring 5 cannot separate from the cylindrical groove 602 of the rear connector 6. When the spherical first protrusion 501 on the cutting knife connecting spring piece 5 runs to the cutting knife running groove 801 that is separated from the nail magazine 8, the spherical first protrusion 501 of the cutting knife connecting spring piece 5 begins to enter the range of the cutting knife positioning slider 10, and the cutting knife positioning slider 10 and the nail magazine 8 form a combined cutting knife running groove 8001. The cutting knife connecting spring piece 5 runs in the combined cutting knife running groove 8001 until it is reset to its original position.
[0068] Exemplary, disassembly of the nail magazine assembly, separation of the cutting blade component and the cutting blade rear connecting piece:
