Abstract
A machine for wrapping generally cylindrical articles, includes a supply reel rotatably mounted in the machine for unreeling a web of sheet material, a conveyor for transporting the articles along a predetermined path, an inclined infeed table for supplying the articles by means of a gravity feed to the conveyor, and an article infeed mechanism disposed adjacent the infeed table for successively feeding the articles to the conveyor. The articles infeed mechanism is movable between a first position in which it stops the feed of the articles fed thereto and a second position in which the articles are allowed to successively move by gravity forward for deposit on the conveyor. A device is provided for successively adhering the leading edge of the sheet material to the articles and a transverse parting wire serves to sever a predetermined portion of the sheet material so that it may be wrapped around the article as it rolls forward toward the conveyor. A method for wrapping cylindrical articles is also disclosed.
