Various embodiments of the present disclosure provide a strapping device configured to carry out a strap-attachment check cycle. After attaching leading and trailing strap ends of a strap to one another to form a tensioned loop of strap around a load, the strapping device is configured to carry out the strap-attachment cycle to test the strength of the attachment between the leading and trailing strap ends and to provide feedback as to whether the strap attachment is satisfactory.

A strapping apparatus for strapping articles with a strapping band having a tensioning device for imparting a band tension to a loop of the strapping band, the tensioning device including a driveable tensioning element provided for engaging the strapping band to impart a band tension. The strapping apparatus including a connecting device for generating a permanent connection, in particular a welded connection, at two regions, situated one above the other, of the loop of the strapping band. The strapping apparatus is configured to achieve the release of the tensioning element from the strapping band reliably to avoid or reduce adverse characteristics attributed to the release of the tensioning device from the band.

A slide block-based positioning mechanism and an automatic tie tool having the same. The slide block-based positioning mechanism includes a slide block and a guide rail. The slide block fits the guide rail. The guide rail limits five degrees of freedom of the slide block. The slide block slides in a length direction of the guide rail. A head portion of a tie is arranged at a predetermined position at the slide block. The slide block pushes the tie from the predetermined position to a tie installation position.

A curved guide of a band-width-adjustable banderoling machine and a corresponding insert allow the curved guide to be adapted to bands of different widths. The curved guide mounted on the banderoling machine has a band guiding surface which is restricted on a first side and unrestricted on a second side. The insert has a restriction surface which, in the assembled state, is intersected by the continuation of the band guiding surface. The restriction surface is selected in such a way that in the assembled state the distance between the first side of the band guiding surface and the restriction surface is adapted to the width of the desired band. The restriction surface of the insert restricts the band guiding surface on the second side. In addition to such an adaptable curved guide, a banderoling machine preferably also comprises an adaptable band drive with an at least partially replaceable band channel.

A packing strap length cutting device includes a main body and a control device. The main body has a first frame and a second frame. A strap pulling unit, a calculation unit and a sensing unit are electrically connected to the control device. The strap pulling unit is connected to a strap connecting unit. Thereby, a packing strap can be automatically pulled out a predetermined length through the strap pulling unit, and then the strap cutting unit is driven by a driving member of the strap pulling unit to cut the packing strap in the predetermined length, assisting a user in completing the cutting operation quickly.

The invention concerns a device for strapping objects with a flat strap, consisting of a strap guide frame, a cover frame and an ejector. The strap guide frame has a flat strap channel that is open on a narrow side and the cover frame can be moved between a closed position and an open position relative to the strap guide frame. In the closed position, it covers the narrow side of the strap channel and in the open position, there is a gap. From a second side surface opposite of the open, narrow side, the ejector protrudes into the strap channel.

In order to realize a stable and cost-effective design, the ejector (14) is a flat component with two legs (23, 24) at an angle to one another, wherein the free end of the first leg (23) is mounted to the mounting element (21) and the free end of the second leg (24) protrudes, with little play, into a flat opening (18) that protrudes through the strap guide frame (9), extends across the strap channel (15) and has a height that is greater than the height of the strap channel (15) transverse to the plane of the strap.

A cable tie mounting tool comprises an upstream jaw and a downstream jaw having concave guidance path portions for the strap of a cable tie, a placing mechanism configured to place a cable tie portion along the common concave guidance path by pushing it strap-end-first along the common concave guidance path starting at the upstream end of the upstream jaw and pushing it in downstream direction, an insertion mechanism for feeding the cable tie strap end of the placed cable tie through the head of the placed cable tie, and a tightening mechanism for tightening the cable tie and possibly cutting it. Also provided is a length adjustment mechanism for adjusting the length of the common concave guidance path.

A binding machine includes a wire feeding unit, a curl forming unit, a cutting unit, a binding unit, and a transmission unit that transmits movement of the binding unit to the cutting unit. The binding unit includes a locking member that locks a wire, a sleeve that actuates the locking member, and a rotary shaft that actuates the sleeve. The transmission unit includes a displacement member to be displaced by movement of the sleeve, and a transmission member that transmits movement of the displacement member to the cutting unit. The cutting unit includes a movable blade part connected to the transmission member. The displacement member switches an amount of movement of the movable blade part and a force that can be generated by the movable blade part, within a moving range of the movable blade part.

A rebar tying tool may include a holder, a stopper, a driving roller, and a driven roller. The stopper may be configured to switch between a prohibiting state in which the stopper prohibits a reel from detaching from the holder and an allowing state in which the stopper allows the reel to detach from the holder. The driving roller may be configured to rotate. The driven roller may be configured to switch between a clamped state and a non-clamped state, the wire may be clamped between the driving roller and the driven roller when the driven roller is in the clamped state, and the wire may not be clamped between the driving roller and the driven roller when the driven roller is in the non-clamped state. The driven roller may be in the non-clamped state at all times while the stopper is in the allowing state.

A multiple strapping device that provides an uninterrupted ejection cycle for a bale while at the same time strategically placing the straps, or wire ties, onto the bale, through use of a series of corkscrews which hold the straps or wire ties and advance the strap, or wire ties, as the corkscrew is rotated therein releasing the strap, or wire ties, onto the bale.
