Abstract
A hand-operated blind rivet setting tool having a compound link mechanism for increasing advantageously the mechanical ratio between its moving parts. A one-digit, one-handed latching and unlatching feature is provided, as well as a jam-free environment for the rivet-mandrel used with the tool during the rivet-setting cycle. Two easily assembled subassemblies of the tool combine for error-free assembly and disassembly.
