  • Patent number: 11976479
    Abstract: A binding machine includes a body part, a feeding unit configured to feed a wire, a first guide extending in a first direction from an end portion on one side of the body part, configured to guide the wire fed by the feeding unit, and having a first induction part provided on a tip end-side in the first direction, a second guide spaced from the first guide with an interval, in which a binding object is inserted, in a second direction orthogonal to the first direction, and configured to guide the wire fed by the feeding unit, and a twisting unit configured to twist the wire. The first induction part is constituted by a surface inclined in a direction in which the interval between the first guide and the second guide decreases from a tip end-side toward a base end-side of the first induction part in the first direction.
