Abstract
The electrically-powered hand-held device for bundling elongated objects by wrapping the elongated objects with a one-side adhesive band includes a handle, a rotatable bundling head connected to the handle and including a device for pressing the band against the elongated objects and for pulling it tightly around the elongated objects and a device for rotating the band together with the bundling head around the elongated objects. The device for pressing and pulling includes a spring-loaded displaceable central jaw located in the bundling head and first and second spring-loaded turning jaws opposite one another with the central jaw between them in the bundling head. The central jaw is displaceable by insertion of the elongated objects into the bundling head and the spring-loaded turning jaws are formed and positioned in the bundling head so that the spring-loaded turning jaws engage the band on opposite sides of the band and slid over controlling slid surfaces provided on the displaceable central jaw to wrap and tighten the band around the objects.
