ABSTRACT:
A threader device designed to simplify the threading of strapping tapes around and under a load to be strapped to a pallet or other load supporting device having a pair of apertures extending substantially horizontally through its base, with the threader device involving a framework having a pair of substantially parallel, elongate threader bars extending outwardly from its base for a distance sufficient to pass through the load supporting device. The threader bars are disposed slightly above ground level and spaced apart a distance consistent with the spacing of the apertures of the load supporting device. Tape dispensing means are carried on the framework, and arranged to dispense a pair of strapping tapes. The threader bars each have tape securing means on their outer ends, such that the ends of a pair of strapping tapes from the tape dispensing means can be removably secured to respective ones of the tape securing means. Therefore, upon the threader bars being caused to protrude through the apertures of a load supporting device, the ends of the strapping tapes are made available to the operator on the side of the load remote from the framework, so that he can easily detach the ends of the strapping tapes from the tape securing means, and then complete the encompassing of the load with the strapping tapes. For convenience of the operator, we preferably dispense the strapping tapes from the outer ends of a pair of tape supporting arms located a distance above the threader bars, with this arrangement simplifying the task of the operator in closing the tape loops around the load carried by the load supporting device.
