A tie placement apparatus having a body with a handgrip. The tie placement apparatus has a wire inlet adapted to receive a tie wire, a tie placement head, and an electric motor cooperative with the tie placement head so as to actuate the tie placement head. A first reel-holder is adapted to receive a tie wire reserve therein. The body has an attachment socket that removably receives the first reel holder. The attachment socket and the first reel holder are affixed together by an elastic latch.

The disclosure herein discloses a rebar tying tool that ties plural rebars using a wire. The rebar tying tool includes a housing and a twisting motor, and may include a twisting mechanism that twists the wire around the plural rebars by the twisting motor. The twisting mechanism may include a screw shaft, a gripping member that grips the wire in cooperation with rotation of the screw shaft, a first reduction mechanism that reduces and transmits rotation of the twisting motor to a relay shaft, and a second reduction mechanism that reduces and transmits rotation of the relay shaft to the screw shaft. The first reduction mechanism may be a coaxial reduction mechanism, and the second reduction mechanism may be a parallel-axis reduction mechanism.

A reinforcing bar binding machine (1A) includes a magazine (2A) in which a wire (W) is housed, a curl guide unit (5A) that winds the wire (W) around a reinforcing bar (S), a wire feeding unit (3A) that feeds the wire (W), and a binding unit (7A) that twists crossing portions between one end and the other end of the wire (W) wound around the reinforcing bar (S). The wire feeding unit (3A) is configured such that a second displacement member (36) for displacing a second feed gear (30R) is located behind a second feed gear (30L) and provided between the second feed gear (30L) and a handle portion (11A).

A rebar tying tool includes a reel housing, a guide, and an antenna. The reel housing houses a reel on which a tying wire is wound. The guide is located frontward from the reel housing to guide the wire drawn from the reel into a loop. The antenna is located inside the reel housing or at a member included in the reel housing.
