ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for binding an article with adhesive tape is disclosed which includes a housing having a cavity bounded by a front wall and a rear wall for accommodating a supply of adhesive tape. A rotatable star wheel having a number of radial recesses at equal angular distances for receiving an article to be bound with tape, and a peripheral surface. Two mutually registered open channels in the front and rear walls of the housing are formed, such that an article for binding may be transported from the top to the bottom of the housing. A tilt member located adjacent the star wheel having an actuating part pivotal about an axis towards and away from the star wheel and resiliently urged by a spring. A cutter affixed to the tilt member adjacent the star wheel and actuable by a through-fed article for cutting the tape. A stopper cam on the tilt member for limiting the displacement of the tilt member such that the cutter does not engage the peripheral surface of the star wheel while cutting the tape. The stopper cam on the tilt member contacts another stopper cam on the star wheel.
