A tie scrap ejecting apparatus is provided in a bundling tie applying tool for positive controlled ejection of a portion of a bundling tie severed upon being suitably tensioned about a plurality of articles. The ejecting apparatus includes a plurality of tubes, interconnected for slidable, telescopic movement. The smallest of the tubes is coupled to a movable support that supports the tie severing means and is thereby movable therewith. The smallest tube has a passageway for close passage of a severed tie therethrough, the passageway communicating with the severing means. The largest tube is stationarily affixed to the housing, its opening communicating with a port of egress for discharging the severed tie portion. The other tubes are movable with respect to the largest tube, each of the movable tubes having an end surface that upon collapsing of the apparatus lies closely adjacent the port of egress for pushing a severed tie portion therethrough.

A power-operated tool for automatically applying a bundling tie to a plurality of wires or the like comprises an elongate rotatable tie carrier and a loading mechanism disposed adjacent thereto for positioning ties on the carrier. The loading mechanism is adapted to receive ties individually in succession from a series of ties that are webbed together head to head and to transfer the interconnected ties laterally to the carrier. A pawl is included for rotatably indexing the tie carrier to advance the ties positioned thereon to a separating station whereat the web between the heads is cut to thereby provide separated, individual ties. The ties are further advanced to a feeding position whereat an individual tie is positioned about the articles in a closed loop. A gripper is provided to tension the tie about the articles and a severing mechanism is included to suitably sever a strap portion at a predetermined tie tension.
