Abstract

A wire tying device for tying a wire-like ribbon about a neck of a bag moved along a path by a conveyor. The packaging device includes a bag gathering apparatus including a bag clamp plate positioned adjacent the path of the neck of the bag and a plunger which moves along the path to engage the neck of the bag between the clamping mechanism and a slotted face plate for pulling slack out of a plastic bag and to draw to the bag to a control tension about the product. An improved drive mechanism smoothly and rapidly accelerates a needle for wrapping a section of wire ribbon around the neck of the bag, a twister hook for twisting the wire, a wire holder-shear for gripping and cutting the wire ribbon and a striper arm for removing the twisted wire from the twister hook.
