Binding machine
The wire fed or pulled back from the reel by the feeding unit can be properly restricted. The invention relates to a binding machine ( 2 ) having a feeding unit ( 16 ) for feeding out a wire ( 3 ) from a reel ( 12 ) provided in a housing unit ( 11 ). With respect to the entering route ( 81 ) of the wire ( 3 ) when the wire ( 3 ) drawn out from the reel ( 12 ) by the feeding unit ( 16 ) is guided to the feeding unit ( 83 ), the first restriction unit ( 83 ) that restricts the drawing portion ( 3 a ) of the wire ( 3 ) disposed between the reel ( 12 ) and the feeding unit ( 16 ) from being deviating from the entering route ( 81 ) is provided inside the housing unit ( 11 ).
1. A binding machine comprising:
a wire feeding unit that is capable of feeding a wire from a wire reel which has a tubular hub to wind a wire and which is rotatably supported on a main body of the binding machine; and
a curl arm that plastically deforms the wire fed out from the wire feeding unit to form a circle locus,
a curl guide that picks up the wire which is plastically deformed by the curl arm,
wherein the binding machine twists the wire to bind a binding object after winding the wire which is plastically deformed by the curl arm, around the binding object,
wherein a plane is located at a position offset with respect to a cross section, the plane is formed by the circle of the plastically deformed wire inside the curl arm and the cross section is formed by cutting through a center point of the hub in a direction substantially orthogonal to an axial center of the hub, and
wherein a wire passage provided at the curl guide is offset with respect to the plane in a direction opposite to an offset direction of the cross section, and
wherein the wire is a set of a plurality of wires and is fed out substantially concurrently.
2. The binding machine according to claim 1 , wherein the plane is provided at substantially the same location as a cross section formed by cutting through an axial end portion of the hub in the direction substantially orthogonal to the axial center of the hub.
