A wire crimping tool can include a top portion with a distal end and a tool shaft portion that can be attached to a drill. In some embodiments, the tool shaft portion can have an opening with a square cross-section that can be used to attach the wire crimping tool to a square drill attachment. The wire crimping tool can rotate clockwise or counter-clockwise about its longitudinal axis. In some embodiments, a wire crimping tool can be used to tighten the wires of a wire tree basket around a tree root ball.

The present invention relates to an automatic tying machine for automatically tying binding wires in order to fix crops in a farmhouse or tie bundles or bundled products during distribution. More specifically, the present invention relates to an automatic tying machine which can use binding wires of different thicknesses, in which after a binding wire is drawn into a slot of a whirling binding wire guide device, the binding wire does not slip off from the slot during rotation of a slewing gear to prevent malfunctioning of the automatic tying machine for crops, such that it is possible to accurately and quickly tie crops, bundles or bundled products. Due to these features, the automatic tying machine has remarkable effects that can improve the productivity of work of tying crops, bundles or bundled products and improve work convenience.

A handheld tool for installing wire on a fence, the tool having a frame, a sprocket system that is situated at least partially within the frame and engaged by an actuator, a T-post alignment unit that is configured to position a vertical T-post against the tool, a clip storage magazine that is attached to a top of the frame, a tube assembly that is movably mounted within the frame, and a presenter that is configured to present clips from the magazine. The sprocket system and tube assembly are configured to cause the clip presented by the presenter to be pushed into position against the T-post and a horizontal fence wire, tension the fence wire against the T-post, lock the fence wire into position against the T-post by straddling the T-post with the clip, and wrap two ends of the clip around the fence wire to attach it to the T-post.

A reinforcing bar bending machine detachably mounts a wire reel thereto, feeds a wire from the mounted wire reel to a guide part provided at a tip portion of a binding machine main body, curls the wire at the guide part, feeds the wire around reinforcing bars to wind around reinforcing bars, cuts the wire with a wire cutting mechanism, and twists the wound wire to bind the reinforcing bars. The wire cutting mechanism is a cutter including a moveable blade configured to slide or swing to a fixed blade or to rotate inside the fixed blade and to cut the wire. The guide part is provided with a holding device to hold a cut end portion-side of the wire cut and separated in conjunction with a cutting operation of the moveable blade. The holding device bends and holds the cut end portion-side of the cut and separated wire.

A rebar binding machine comprises a curl guide that causes a wire to curl, a torsion part including a torsion shaft for twisting the curled wire, and a pair of grips that can be grasped by an operator. The grips are provided to the two axial sides of the torsion shaft as viewed from the operator side when the operator grasps the grips to perform an operation, and it is possible to change the height of the grips in the axial direction of the torsion shaft.

A rebar tying machine disclosed herein may include a reel having a wire, a wheel holding the reel and rotatable integrally with the reel, a wheel holder rotatably holding the wheel, and an elastic body interposed between the wheel and the wheel holder. Another rebar tying machine disclosed herein may include a reel having a wire, a wheel holding the reel and rotatable integrally with the reel, and a wheel holder rotatably holding the wheel. The wheel may be movable relative to the wheel holder.

A receptacle for a consumable material, such as a wire spool 2, to be loaded into a machine, such as a wire tying machine 18, comprises first and second indicating means 6, 12 for identifying the receptacle, wherein one of the indicating means 6 is separable from the receptacle.

An actuator for a treatment tool including: a tube having a distal end configured to rotatably support the treatment tool; a twisting wire disposed along a longitudinal axis of the tube, the twisting wire having a distal end and a proximal end, the treatment tool being connected to the distal end of the twisting wire, the twisting wire being actuated by applying a tensile force at the proximal end, the twisting wire converting the tensile force into rotation of the treatment tool around the longitudinal axis of the tube; and at least one wire movable in a longitudinal direction to actuate the treatment tool, the at least one wire actuating the treatment tool separately from actuation of the twisting wire to rotate the treatment tool.

The wire twisting pliers include a reversible transformation device including a casing, a double helix pin, separate right-hand and left-hand guiding elements, housed in a single drum and radially movable between a drive position in which one is directly and forcefully engaged in said right-hand or left-hand helix and couples said casing to said drum, the other is free to retract from said right-hand or left-hand helix, said casing being movable between right- and left-hand positions in which said right-hand and left-hand guiding elements are respectively in the drive position of same, free or vice versa. A reversible wire twisting pliers including such a transformation device.

A binding machine includes a wire feeding unit, a curl forming unit, a cutting unit, and a binding unit. The binding unit includes a locking member that includes a first hook and a second hook and that locks the wire by moving the first hook toward the second hook. The locking member includes a locking part that locks the wire in a state in which the first hook has been moved toward the second hook, and an unlocking part that makes it possible for the first hook to be movable away from the second hook with such an amount of movement that the locked wire does not come off between the first hook and the second hook.
