摘要:
A fastening device (30) includes a housing (32) and a handle (34) extending from a first side of the housing to assume a pistol-like configuration. A head (38) is located at a forward end of the housing (32) and includes a nose member (40) located between two spaced housing parts or guide plates (41) and (42). A magazine (36) is attached to the nose member (40) adjacent a second side of the housing (32), opposite the first side thereof. A plurality of spaced, serially-arranged fastening elements (44) are linked together in a belt-like fashion, and are located within the magazine (36) for feeding and conveying of the fastening elements to a forward fitting position or assembly station (46) at a forward end of the nose member (40).
