Abstract: A locating structure of a lashing tape reel of a binding machine includes a guide rail member which is formed of a guide seat and two parallel rods, an action disk provided with an electromagnetic clutch which is connected with the guide seat, and a locating disk connected with the action disk by a shaft. The locating structure enables the lashing tape reel of the binding machine to be loaded or unloaded with ease and speed.

Abstract: A binding machine is provided with a guide frame structure for holding and guiding a lashing tape. The guide frame structure includes an inverted U-shaped guide support mounted on the top of a machine body of the binding machine, a connection rod member capable of being actuated by a cam of the binding machine so as to link a guide member. The guide frame structure further includes a lashing tape guiding frame and a position controlling guide frame capable of actuating the lashing tape guiding frame to open or close relative to the guide support for guiding out the lashing tape via a tape guiding plate.

Abstract: A guide band packaging machine having a control motor mounted on a mounting board with a connector member. The connector member is connected to control cam. The control cam has a convex ridge contacting a guide wheel of a link mechanism positioned below the guide motor. The guide motor includes a first motor which rotates a first driver gear mounted on a motor shell. The first driver gear is fixedly attached to a major wheel and rotatably engages a second driver wheel. The second driver wheel is fixedly attached to a minor wheel. The major wheel and the minor wheel are pressed against each other so as to control a tension of a band during the feeding and reversing of the band therebetween.

Abstract: A device for heating and melting both ends of a lashing tape of a binding machine at the conclusion of a binding process is formed of a housing and an electrical heater which is disposed in the housing and provided with a plurality of current conducting and heat generating lines and a plurality of temperature sensing lines connected with a control switch of the binding machine for regulating the operation of the binding machine and the power supply to the current conducting and heat generating lines of the device.

Abstract: A mechanism for loading a lashing tape of a binding machine is disposed on a tape storing slot which is located in the binding machine and formed of a locating plate and a position confining plate. The locating plate is provided with a drive wheel driven by a drive motor, and a driven wheel located near the drive wheel. The locating plate is pivoted with a main guide rod. The driven wheel is fastened with an auxiliary guide rod. The main guide rod is connected with a control rod for controlling a touch switch regulating the circuit of the drive motor. The auxiliary guide rod is slanted in a direction toward the main guide rod. The main guide rod is pushed by an actuating rod driven by a motor such that the main guide rod swivels upward to join with the auxiliary guide rod, thereby resulting in the formation of a gap via which the lashing tape is guided by the drive wheel and the driven wheel to be loaded.
