ABSTRACT:
A frame containing a wire supply coil and a clamping and cutting shears actuated by toggle links connecting the arms of the shears to the frame. The pivot of the shears is attached to one end of a piston, the other end of which slides in a cylinder in the frame. A compression spring between the piston and cylinder tends to bias the piston away from the frame thereby applying a wire clamping force to the jaws of the shears through the action of the toggle links. A drag strut is provided to oppose the biasing force and open the jaws of the shears. The rotating shaft of a commercially available rachet spring return twister is attached to the frame. This twister converts a linear pulling motion into rotary motion thereby twisting the wire and making the fastener. Further pulling on the twister shears the wires.
