ABSTRACT:
There is disclosed an apparatus for manufacturing angle-section members and binding these members in bundles, in which the angle-section members, formed at a manufacturing station drop, apex upwards, onto supports carried by a conveyor to form a nested stack of the angle-section members on each support. The stacks thus formed are conveyed, on their supports, under binding devices at a bending station where each binding device bends a fastening element about the stack to form a bound bundle. Each bending device comprises a vertically slidable slide element having a bifurcated lower end defined by two downwardly extending arms the lower ends of which have pulleys around which a chain passes to extend between the arms, and upwardly from the pulleys, on the outsides of the arms, the chain being kept resiliently under tension. Each slide element has a fastening element in the form of a length of metal ribbon extending between the free ends of its arms, on the outer side of the chain and when the slide element is thrust over a stack of angle-section members to be bound, the length of ribbon is bent around the stack by the chain and the chain drawn around the stack into the gap between said arms from the outsides of the arms and bending devices attached to the chain pass around said pulley from positions outside said gap between said arms, to positions extending into said gap, the bending devices, in so passing, bending the ends of the fastening element into the downwardly presented valley of the lowermost angle-section member of the stack.
