ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for securing wrapping material around an article. The apparatus includes a main frame that has a generally rectangular configuration. A spool member for supporting a roll of wrapping material is secured to one end of the main frame. A substantially planar surface with an opening formed therethrough is secured to and partially extends along the length of the main frame. A pulling assembly for grasping an end of the wrapping material from the roll and pulling the same away from the spool member is also secured the main frame. Positioned adjacent the spool member are first and second adhesive applying assemblies, each of which is adapted to apply a predetermined pattern of adhesive to a portion of the wrapping material. A cutting assembly for severing the adhesive covered portion of wrapping material from the roll is mounted to the main frame. A mold is located below the opening in the planar surface. Positioned above the mold and above the opening in the planar surface is a mandrel that is adapted to force the article and the adhesive covered portion of wrapping material into the mold so that the pattern of adhesive secures the wrapping material to the outer peripheral surface of the article.
