  • Patent number: 9988168
    Abstract: An apparatus for sealing an object, such as a bag, with a one-sided adhesive tape includes a rigid base fixed with a rear plate that has a tape roll spindle rotationally attached thereto. A front plate is fixed with the rear plate with at least one standoff, defining a gap therebetween for holding a sealing mechanism. The front and rear plates each include a sealing pathway traversing a top side of each plate and terminating at an orthogonally-oriented cutting pathway. The sealing mechanism comprises an indexing wheel, a tape brake having a tape engaging surface urged against the indexing wheel, and a tape cutter having a cutting blade fixed with an upper end thereof. An object cutter includes a blade for cutting the object when the object is moved through the cutting pathway.
