ABSTRACT:
An applicator for C-shaped scalp clips, with which a plurality of scalp clips can be applied one after the other without having to insert an individual scalp clip into the applicator after each application. For this purpose, a magazine for receiving a plurality of scalp clips is provided and the scalp clips are arranged one behind the other in the magazine, the free ends of one scalp clip thereby resting against the bridge of the adjacent scalp clip, the magazine being open at the end to which the free ends of the legs of the scalp clips point, the scalp clips being guided in the magazine for displacement in the longitudinal direction thereof and moved towards the open end of the magazine by spring means, and the applying instruments, in a first position in which they are remote from one another, projecting downwardly and upwardly into the feed path of the scalp clips at the open end of the magazine such that a scalp clip which has been moved past the applying instruments abuts thereon with its laterally projecting edge regions adjoining the application surfaces and, in a second position in which the applying instruments are brought closer together, these instruments abutting on the application surfaces of the scalp clip held between them and thereby opening the scalp clip.
