ABSTRACT:
The specification discloses a staple remover for removing staples from an object. In one embodiment, the staple remover comprises a plastic handle having an elongate gripping portion, a projecting head on a first end of the gripping portion, a cavity extending through the gripping portion from a second end thereof to an opening to the second end, and a passageway communicating between the cavity and the exterior of the handle at a position adjacent the projecting head. The gripping portion and the head are integrally formed together as a unitary, one-piece construction. As a second part, the staple remover includes a metallic clip having a first end which extends into the passageway so that the clip is supported on the handle. The clip has a second end which projects out of the passageway into the head and which is configured to provide a projecting end for being urged under a staple to enable removal of the staple from the object by the application of a force through the clip from the handle. The clip is also provided by a single, unitary construction. The clip and handle are configured to provide for insertion of the clip into the passageway through the cavity of the handle which enables an efficient mode of assembly of the device.
