ABSTRACT:
A device for stapling sheets comprises a collecting tray (1) which is downwardly inclined to the direction of entrance "A" of sheets and has a support surface (2) and a pivotable abutment (3) associated with the front portion of the sheets. Between abutment (3) and support surface (2), a free space (6) is provided in which a stapling unit (10, 15) is movable for setting to a number of different stapling positions. The free space (6) is covered by a cover (9) in an area where no staples are to be applied. A tongue (7a) of a hold-down element (7) rests on the cover (9). Tongue (7a) and cover (9) extend into a recess (3a) of the abutment (3), with an upper limiter (3b) of recess (3a) being arranged above tongue (7a) and serving as an abutment for a limited pivotal movement of hold-down element (7, 7a). A second support of the sheets in the stapling area is provided by a pivotably mounted, spring-biased cover element (20) which overlaps the free space (6) and extends into the path of movement of the stapling unit (10, 15) such that it can be deflected aside by said unit.
