Patent ID: 7654889

Claim:
Clip machine for dividing and sealing tubular-shaped packaging filled with stuffing comprising: at least two axially spaced pairs of radially opposed displacement elements, relating to the axis of the packaging tube, which are operatively attached to a first linear guide, the first linear guide extending radially relative to the axis of the packaging tube, to be compressed radially towards one another and then separated axially in pairs, for the local constriction of the filled packaging and the formation of a tubular braid radially-linearly; a pivotably arranged first sealing tool and a second sealing tool, with the first and second sealing tools being equipped to set and close at least one clamp fastener around the formed tubular braid, to be compressed radially between the axially separated displacement element pairs, the radial movement direction of displacement element pairs coincides essentially with the radial movement direction of sealing tools.
