<p>A strap accumulator is disclosed for use between an associated strapping apparatus and a power-driven strap dispensing mechanism. The accumulator is configured to receive strap from the dispenser, with the accumulated strap being periodically withdrawn by the associated strapping apparatus. The accumulator includes a housing which defines an interior cavity within which strap is accumulated, with a disc-like strap guide mounted generally centrally of the cavity which guides strap from within the housing through one of the sidewalls thereof. The generally central mounting of the strap guide within the cavity permits the accumulated strap to form an elongated loop between the strap guide and an edge wall of the housing without any tendency to disfigure or damage the strap.</p> |
