Abstract: The present invention refers to an apparatus and a method for wrapping a film around an object. The apparatus includes a device capable of being electrostatically charged and capable of transmitting the electrostatic charge to the portion of film that comes out of the carriage. In this way, the fixing of the leading end flap of the film around the object to be wrapped is thus facilitated. In fact, the leading end flap of the film, as soon as it is dispensed, remains stretched out of the carriage and, as soon as it meets the object to be wrapped, it immediately fastens to it due to the attraction force. The rotation is then activated to wrap the film around the object. The apparatus is simple to make, cheap, and highly efficient.

Abstract: The present invention refers to an equipment and a method for wrapping a film around an object placed on a pallet. The equipment includes: a) a reel-holder carriage equipped with an outlet designed to allow the film to come out of the carriage through it; and b) at least one device suitable for blowing air, placed at the outlet and integral with the carriage, which allows the end strip of the film, once it has come out of the carriage, to spread slowly, without any tension, on the ground around the base of the object to be wrapped. The rotation around the object to be wrapped of a movable body forming part of the equipment of the present invention, or, alternatively, the rotation on itself of the object to be wound in proximity to the equipment, allows tensioning of the strip of the film and the subsequent superimposition on it of a portion of the film that gradually emerges from the carriage during rotation, so as to fix the film to the object to be wrapped.

Abstract: Method and apparatus for fixing the tail end of the film for wrapping palletized loads, supplied by a reel (B), envisages the following working steps: a) Positioning along the side of the load and parallel thereto a straight member (1) and transversely extending over it a section of a penultimate turn (S) of the wrapping film so as to form a vertically open pocket (Z) between this turn and the wrapped load; b) Moving an edge of the film portion of the said penultimate turn which touches the said straight member towards the other edge of the said turn so as to free space on the said straight member (1); c) Extending over the free space of said straight member (1) a section of a last turn (S1) of the wrapping film,—d) The part of the said last turn (S1) situated on the said straight member is moved away from the said penultimate turn (S), is made to pass over the said straight member (1) and is inserted and pulled into the said pocket (Z), remaining temporarily connected to the said distributor with the reel (B
