ABSTRACT:
A film wrapping apparatus is presented herein wherein a support structure supports a work surface at which items are wrapped in film. A drawer assembly is carried by the support structure below the work surface and includes a drawer carried by the support structure for slidable horizontal movement between a drawer pulled out position and a drawer pushed in position. A pair of cradle rollers are carried by the drawer and support a roll of film as the roll rotates about its axis as film is pulled from the roll. A film gripper grips the leading edge of the film and pulls the film from the roll as the gripper is displaced from a first position below the work surface to a second position proximate to the work surface. The film gripper is actuated so as to move from the first position to the second position as the drawer is moved toward its pushed in retracted position.
