ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for repairing out-of-round cores, upon which strapping material has been coiled, when the core and coiled strapping material assembly has been deformed and is therefore no longer capable of being mounted upon strapping unwinding and dispensing apparatus. The repair apparatus comprises a pair of diametrically opposed, substantially semi-circular shoes which are mounted upon a pair of diametrically aligned rod members that are operatively connected together by means of a diametrically oriented expansion member. The apparatus is adapted to be disposed internally within the deformed core and coiled strapping material assembly, and when the expansion member is diametrically extended, the pair of semi-circular shoes will be forced into contact with the inner periphery of the deformed core and coiled strapping material assembly thereby returning the same to a truly round configuration.
