ABSTRACT:
An ear lobe piercing device is employed to drive a headed pin through an ear lobe and into a lock nut disposed on the other side of the ear lobe. In one form the device includes a pair of separable jaws which receive the ear lobe therebetween, one of the jaws having a pin driving mechanism and the other jaw having means for holding the lock nut in a position to receive the sharp end of the pin. Both the pin and nut are individually pre-packaged, each in its own holder. The pin holder is received by one jaw in alignment with the pin driving mechanism, and the nut holder is received by the other jaw. After insertion of the two holders into the device and operation of the device to pierce the ear lobe, the holders are disposable. The device can also be in the form of a gun having a fixed means for receiving the pin holder and a slidable means for receiving the nut holder.
