Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a packing machine, and more particularly to a packing machine's feeding and tensioning strap device. Background Technology
[0002] A strapping machine is a device that uses strapping tape to bundle items. The entire strapping process involves several steps, including tape feeding, tape retraction, tensioning, and heat sealing. For a tape feeding / retraction and tensioning device consisting of three wheels—a drive wheel, a pressure wheel, and a tensioning wheel—the pressure wheel and tensioning wheel rest against the drive wheel during tape feeding and tensioning operations, respectively. This type of strapping machine's tape feeding / retraction and tensioning device is prone to slippage when feeding thin tape, affecting the strapping process. Utility Model Content
