ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for disposing rubber bands around a movable fixture in preparation for banding of a produce bunch, including vertically articulated pins disposed around the periphery of a produce receiving opening, the pins being connected at their bottom ends to a vertically articulated spring-supported platform. The platform includes a vertically adjustable false bottom surface which is depressed by the produce bunch to withdraw the pins and release the rubber band to band the bunch. Also included is a rubber band dispensing yoke, Y-shaped in planform, having disposed on the center leg thereof a supply of rubber bands and having the two distal branch legs engaging selected pins. By way of this arrangement the rubber band is aligned over the exterior periphery of the selected pins and can then be manually stretched around the remaining pins.
