ABSTRACT:
A non-piercing fastening device employing generally "V"-shaped clips is disclosed. The device contains a magazine channel into which one leg of each clip may be fitted and thereby snapped into place. The channel and its associated vertical walls additionally cause the vertices of the clips to act as a stop for papers or other objects to be fastened, enhancing the uniformity of the edges of the fastened papers. A rotating cam whose surface contacts substantially the entire length of the free leg of each clip is included to provide more constant pressure along and even crimping of the clip legs. The notched cam surface reduces the possibility of concurrently crimping multiple clips, and the cam can be adjusted automatically relative to the magazine's forwardmost clip to accommodate materials of varying thicknesses.
