Abstract

The invention uses a propulsion mechanism in the form of electromagnetic force by current flowing through conductive material, a loaded spring or compressed air to expel a string attached to a strong adhesive, removable surface. An edge attached material allows the adhesive to be fired through a barrel onto surfaces it will adhere to and allow the user to pull on objects from a distance.

1 . The apparatus comprising; a propulsion mechanism, which propels a wound string, and an adhesive pad with an edge attached non-adhesive surface of material perpendicular to the adhesive surface and extending in the opposite direction to the adhesive surface, through a barrel and a rewinding mechanism. 
     
     
         2 . The apparatus of  claim 1  wherein said adhesive is a gecko synthetic adhesive. 
     
     
         3 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein said propulsion mechanism is the release of gas from a trigger operated pressurized gas canister. 
     
     
         4 . The apparatus of  claim 1  wherein said adhesive pad is propelled by an electromagnetic force from current through a railgun. 
     
     
         5 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein said adhesive pad and string is propelled by releasing a high tension spring. 
     
     
         6 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein said adhesive pad is cut in a concave shape. 
     
     
         7 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein said adhesive pad has a hole cut in the middle. 
     
     
         8 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein said string is rewound by an electric motor. 
     
     
         9 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein said string is rewound by a pulley.
