Abstract
A device for cutting and removal of the strapping bands from an object, said device comprising a framework adapted to be placed over a conveying track for supplying the object to the device, said framework being provided with supports for at least one clamping-cutting-means, which is supported in such a way that it is movable with respect to at least one wall of the object to search for a strapping band lying against said wall, said band being clamped by the means and cut off, after which the cut off end is brought to a band receiving station by the clamping-cutting-means.
Claims14
A device for cutting and removal of the strapping bands from an object having at least one wall, said device comprising:
- a framework adapted to be placed over a conveying track for supplying the object to the device;
- support means carried by the framework and movable with respect thereto;
- at least one clamping-cutting means carried by said support means for gathering, cutting and removal of said strapping bands, said clamping-cutting means having clamping means for clamping a band to be cut and cutting means for cutting the clamped band, and said clamping-cutting means being movable with said support means so that said clamping-cutting means may be brought into operative relationship with strapping bands wrapped around said object for gathering, cutting and removal of said strapping bands;
- means on said clamping-cutting means to search for and sense the location of strapping bands lying against said object and to position the clamping-cutting means for clamping and cutting a band one located;
- a band-receiving station fixedly positioned in said framework and having means for receiving the cut-off end of a strapping band clamped by said clamping means;
- and
- said clamping means being movable away from the object toward the band-receiving station to convey the cut-off end of the band to said band-receiving station after the band is cut, whereby said band is gathered and removed.
a device for cutting and removal of the strapping bands from an object having at least two walls, said device comprising:
- a framework adapted to be placed over a conveying tract for supplying the object to the device;
- support means carried by the framework and movable with respect thereto in at least two different angularly disposed planes;
- and
- at least one clamping-cutting means carried by the support means for gathering, cutting and removal of said strapping bands, said clamping-cutting means being movable with said support means for movement of the clamping-cutting means in two different angularly disposed planes, whereby the clamping-cutting means may be moved to gather, cut and remove strapping bands placed on both or either of said at least two walls of the object.
