Why stapler reverse

Many staplers have an anvil in the form of a "pinning" or "stapling" switch. This allows a choice between bending in or out. The outward bent staples are easier to remove and are for temporary fastening or "pinning". Hold the base of the stapler firmly in one hand, then pull back the top of the stapler where the staple tray is.

Other stapler models include a silver tab on the bottom of the stapler, toward the back. Press it, and the stapler will automatically pop open, enabling you to use it for tacking purposes. Use the sturdy tabletop to line-up the edges of the stack of paper so they are even.

Place the large stack of paper in the stapler so the stapler head is over the spot where you want the papers attached. Press firmly on the stapler's handle until the staple has gone through the entire stack of paper. Insert the strip of staples, points down, into the staple channel and close the top of the stapler, the magazine will slide back into its correct position and you'll hear a small click.

This left only the staples which were stuck together tightly in a row. Step 2: Measure Every Piece The next step to better understand the stapler was to measure each individual piece. Below is a diagram of what each piece was measure to be using a caliper. Note: not all pieces are listed, only relevant ones Part Name. I determined that the sizes of my parts needed to be exact and could not be off in size because all the parts clipped together.

If the size for each piece was off then the parts wouldnt clip together and the stapler would not function properly. The screws held the staplers base and head together but the rest was all just clipped together or held together on the rod.

I believe this method of fastening was chosen because it is easy to use on an assembly line and is very quick when it comes to assembly and disassembly. The other important thing I realized after taking apart and measuring the parts that most of them are made of steel or of plastic. This is most likely because steel is a common metal and plastic is cheap.

The coil had to be aluminum because it needed to be able to bend. The magazine and anvil needed to be made of a strong metal like steel because it needed to be stronger than the metal the staples were made of.

The cover, on the other hand, could be plastic because it didnt need to be stiff or strong; it just needed to be able to protect the rest of the stapler.

Conclusion By doing this reverse engineering project I learned that simple can be what works best and that it is important to think about complexity when coming up with ideas. The stapler is an object that could be made to be very complicated but engineers have made it so that it is relatively easy to build and operate. I learned that there are more to simple, everyday objects then there appears and to not take these simple things for granted.

The stapler is a good tool for any household, office, or school because it is cheap, simple to operate, and effective. Menu de navigation ouvert. Fermer les suggestions Recherche Recherche.

A hand stapler that can be switched from inward to outward is a more useful tool than a single purpose tool Hi, Welcome to AnandTech Forums.
