ABSTRACT:
A guiding and gripping device for stapler is affixed in upright relation to the front surface of the stapler. The body member has a front contoured surface that receives a line being stapled and guides an unattached portion of the line in upright position along the front contoured surface. The front contoured surface also positions an unattached portion of the line laterally along the bottom surface in a position that is straddled by staples driven out of the bottom surface of the stapler. The front contoured surface includes a lower convex V-shaped groove for receiving an unattached portion of a line and that is bent thereover to impart friction to actual movement of the line. The front contoured surface also includes an upper projection having at least one guide surface offset laterally from the groove wherein a line that is bent over the groove and along one side of the laterally offset projection has angled engagement against the projection to further impart frictional clamping force on the line. The guiding and gripping device of the invention may take a form that can be attached to existing staplers or it can be integrated at the factory.
