ABSTRACT:
In a package strapping tool of the pusher bar type a strap foot restrainer 59 pivoted at 49 to a frame 25 carrying a strap foot 47 is swung clockwise by double-acting auxiliary piston and cylinder assembly 63 from an open position, allowing strapping to be inserted laterally between a rotary dog 50 and strap foot 47, to a closed position (FIG. 4) in which a part 60 of the restrainer 59 engages the underside 61 of the strap foot 47 to support the strap foot 47 against the pressure of the rotary dog 50. In the closed position the restrainer 59 bears against a peg 68 on a carrier, also pivoted at 49 the frame 25, for the rotary dog 50 driven by an air motor 51 and urges the dog 50 against strapping overlying the strap foot 50. The cylinder 65 of the auxiliary piston and cylinder assembly 63 is rigid with the jointing mechanism 22, 27 pivoted to the frame at 45 and the action of the auxiliary piston and cylinder assembly in closing the restrainer also closes the strap foot 47 against a back plate 37 of the jointing mechanism. A tapering toe 48 of the strap foot 47 is thus forced into the angle between the loop of strapping and spare strapping used for tensioning the loop by the dog 50 and finally cut off against the toe 48. In the opposite direction the auxiliary piston and cylinder assembly 63 opens the restrainer 57 and moves the strap foot 47 away from the jointing mechanism.
