A mechanism, for intermittently feeding a tape-like article along a longitudinal path, comprises a slide having a first clamping jaw and reciprocably movable parallel to the longitudinal path, and a second clamping jaw carried by the slide and movable relatively thereto toward and away from the first jaw to clamp and release the tape-like article. At the end of the slide's forward movement, the second jaw is moved away from the first jaw and is locked in such "releasing" position. At the end of the slide's backward movement, the second jaw is unlocked and thereby returned to its "clamping" position. |
