ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a packing apparatus combining tape-tightening and hoop-flattening devices into one unit. The hoop-flattening device has a connecting plate mounted on a handle of the tape-tightening device, so that the hoop-flattening device is pivotally connected to a top of the tape-tightening device. When the hoop-flattening device is turned to a vertical position relative to the tape-tightening device, its front head presses down a braking plate pivotally connected at a front ring portion to a rotary shaft of the tape-tightening device, causing a push plate mounted in the handle to press a front end against a toothed wheel mounted around the rotary shaft for the toothed wheel to tightly pull a tape for packing a parcel. And, when the hoop-flattening device is turned to a horizontal position relative to the tape-tightening device and the braking plate is pulled downward at its rear end, the push plate is allowed to move away from the toothed wheel for the hoop-flattening device along the handle to be lifted into an upright position, so that the front head of the hoop-flattening device may flatten an iron hoop on the tape to firmly tie up the parcel.
