And a connecting shaft is arranged to the end of the two connecting rod far away from the support arm. Two L-shaped connecting pieces are respectively connected to two ends of the connecting shaft. A connecting hole is arranged to the front and rear ends of the L-shaped connecting piece, and the connecting shaft passes one of the holes. And the rear end of the L-shaped connecting piece is connected to the fixing seat on the rear end of the pull rod by screw connection.
Further, the mentioned housing is connected to the rivet head through thread connection by the front end, and the housing is fixed to the L-shaped connecting piece through screw connection by the rear end. And a lock slot is arranged in the housing for the fixing of L-shaped connecting piece.
Further, the mentioned rivet head includes a fixing, seat fixed at the rear end of the pull rod and the adjusting sleeve installed at the front end of the housing through thread connection. The mentioned pull rod is fixed inside the central hole of the fixing seat by the rear end. The mentioned adjusting sleeve is equipped with a guiding nibble at the front end, and the mentioned pull rod is equipped with a grabbing mechanism by the front end. The mentioned L-shaped connecting piece has a front connecting hole and a rear connecting hole on the front and rear end respectively.
Further, when the mentioned connecting shaft passes through the connecting hole on the front end of L-shaped connecting piece, the connecting shaft will be at the left side of the pin shaft.
The mentioned grabbing mechanism includes the grabbing piece. grabbing seat, ejector pin and return spring. The mentioned grabbing piece is inside the grabbing seat, and the grabbing seat is connected to the pull rod through thread connection by the rear end and housed by the adjusting sleeve. The mentioned grabbing piece, ejector pin and return spring are arranged from left to right and the return spring, is housed in the shaft hole at the front end of the pull rod. The mentioned ejector pin presses the front end of the return spring.
The mentioned connecting shaft is equipped with the first torsion spring and the first torsion spring is connected to the left handle by one end, and its another end stretches out from the rear end of the pull rod.
Further, the mentioned one-hand riveter has the following features: when the mentioned connecting shaft passes through the connecting hole at the rear end of the L-shaped connecting piece, the connecting shaft will be at the right side of the pin shaft.
The mentioned grabbing, mechanism is comprised of nut rivet rod, fixing slide sleeve and spring. The nut rivet rod is housed in the adjusting sleeve by one end, and its another end passes through the guiding nibble. The mentioned fixing slide sleeve is set on the front end of the connecting rod, and the spring is set on the rear end of the fixing slide sleeve and covers the pull rod;
The mentioned pin shaft is equipped with the second torsion spring and the second torsion spring is connected to the right handle by one end, and its another end stretches into the adjusting sleeve.
The one-hand handled riveter provided by the invention has the following advantages: when the riveter is used, L-shaped connecting piece is fixed with the housing, and then the connecting shaft will be fixed by the L-shaped connecting piece. Hence, there is no need to drill holes on the housing directly, and, people can achieve the function of screw riveter and nut riveter by choosing the position of connecting holes passed through by connecting shaft on the front and rear ends of the L-shaped connecting piece due to the different arms of force. In other words, people can achieve the function of screw riveter and nut riveter only with one riveter, so as to facilitate the use.

Operation example 1: as is shown in
When the riveter is used, the right handle 2 will be opened to drive the pull rod 6 to move forward, and the connecting shaft 10 will keep fixed, i.e., the connecting shaft 10 serves as a fulcrum of the connecting rod 9 to allow connecting rod 9 to swing. This way, the furthest distance is formed between positioning shaft 7 and pin shaft 8 which serves as the fulcrum for the arm of force of right handle 2, and the arm of force is weakest. While, when right handle 2 is closed, the closest distance is formed between positioning shaft 7 and pin shaft 8 which serves as the fulcrum for the arm of force of right handle 2, and the arm of force is strongest. Operation above is in line with the working principle of screw riveter, so this riveter can serve as the screw riveter.
