Abstract: A manually-powered taping tool for taping an elongated object with tape, which consists of a radial bearing ring (5) provided with a cutout (7) of sufficient size so that the object can pass into the cutout (7); an inner part (6) rotatably mounted within the radial bearing ring (5), which has a radial recess (8) corresponding to the cutout (7); a centrally disposed tape holder (9) mounted on one side of the inner part (6) transverse to the recess (8); a pendulum bearing (10) pivotally connecting the tape holder (9) with the inner part (6); a tape-severing device (14) arranged in tie vicinity of the cutout (7) and a handle (11) or a stationary stand (12) rigidly attached to the radial bearing ring (5).

Abstract: The invention relates to a device (1) for taping long objects (2) using tape (3) from a spool (4). The device (1) comprises a radial bearing ring (5) wherein a rotating inner part (6) is arranged. The radial bearing ring (5) is associated with a cut-out section (7) and the inner part (6) is associated with a radial side recess (8). On one side, the inner part (6) has a tape receiver (9) which is approximately centrically arranged and which is connected to a pendulum bearing (10) in a perpendicular manner with respect to the recess (8).
