Description: |
| Abstract:
This invention relates to wire-working and to methods of and tools for use in joining wires, wire bindings, or wire ties on or about boxes, box parts, bales, bundles, packages or the like. Among other objects the invention has in view the production of a strong efficient joint, and one in which the wire ends are free of objectionable sharp edges or points; the making of a desired twist independently of judgment of the operative, practically eliminating chances of improper or imperfect twisting or of overstraining or rupturing the wire; and the making of substantially uniform joints on different boxes or packages, thus introducing a desirable standardization in the practice of joining box wires.
Claim:
A tool for use in joining package wires by inter-twisting. comprising a plurality of wire engaging means spaced apart a distance approximately equal to a desired length of twist and adapted to receive side by side the wires to be twisted. at least one such means arranged to be rotated relatively to the wire to produce the twist. |
