Hand held strapping tool

Abstract

A device can include a tensioner assembly having a feed wheel. The device can include a lever coupled with the tensioner assembly to pivot the tensioner assembly relative to a base. The device can include a crank coupled with an actuator, the actuator to rotate the crank about a crank axis. The device can include a linkage including a first linkage end pivotally coupled with the crank at a position offset from the crank axis and a second linkage end including an opening having a sidewall. The device can include a resilient member, the resilient member positioned at least partially within the opening of the second linkage end. An axle of the lever is coupled with the resilient member and positioned at least partially within the second opening. The axle can move relative to the sidewall of the first opening with the feed wheel positioned against a strap.
