METHOD FOR BINDING TO USE AN UNDERLYING ROLE TAKING AND BINDING MACHINE.

摘要

To avoid the need for awkward and possibly hazardous movements by an operator when binding a large coil, e.g. of steel strip, a binding apparatus has an arm 13 swingable about an axis 15 by cylinder 14 and carrying at its end a binding head 17. In use, the arm 13 is brought into position D where the binding element is inserted into the head which holds it while the arm 13 is then swung to the position C. The head 17 then operates to pass the binding strip through the head so that its end reaches the position E where it can conveniently be tied by the operator.
