ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for looping the free end portions of the outermost convolutions of helical binders which are threaded through the perforations of a stack of loose leaves has a pivotable tool with a cutting edge which clips the end convolution of a properly located binder and a bending edge which bends the free end portion of the clipped end convolution over the neighboring convolution. A rotary loop forming device is thereupon actuated by a lever to convert the deformed end portion into a loop which surrounds the neighboring convolution. The loop forming device has a guide face which cooperates with a parallel second guide face provided on a reciprocable hold-down device which is caused to extend between the end convolution and the neighboring convolution while the end portion is converted into a loop. These guide faces cooperate with a guide face of a locating projection for the binder and with a guide face of the tool to define a channel which confines the end portion during loop forming so that the loop is located in a plane which includes the axis of the binder. The hold-down device has a notch which receives and prevents deformation of the remaining part of the outermost convolution while the free end portion is being looped around the neighboring convolution.
