Patent attributes
Various embodiments of the present disclosure provide a battery-powered stapling tool. In one embodiment, the stapling tool includes a drive wheel, a cam drivable by the drive wheel in a first rotational direction from a first position to a second position and back to the first position to carry out a staple-driving process, a motor operably connected to the drive wheel to drive the drive wheel, a lifting element defining a slide in which the cam is received, and an ejector connected to the lifting element and drivable by the lifting element between an ejector home position and an ejector ejection position. The slide has first and second slide segments that are transverse to one another. The lifting element is movable between a lifting-element home position and a lifting-element ejection position.
