Abstract
A binding machine includes a wire feeding unit, a binding unit, a curl guide and an inductive guide. The inductive guide has a converging passage through which the wire fed by the wire feeding unit and curled by the curl guide passes, and a cross-sectional area of the converging passage decreases along an entry direction of the wire from an opening end portion that the wire enters. The inductive guide has an entry angle regulation part configured to change an entry angle of the wire entering the converging passage, and the inductive guide is provided on an inner side with respect to a virtual line interconnecting the opening end portion and a narrowest part of the converging passage at which the cross-sectional area is the narrowest.
