ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for loading an article into a bag. The apparatus comprises a loading station which is positioned adjacent a conveyor carrying the articles to be filled in the bags. The loading station comprises a bag delivery plate, a bag bottom opening plate, a bag opening plate and a pusher arm. The bags are folded flat and stored in a hopper. The bag delivery plate retrieves a bag from the hopper and holds the bag in the loading station. The bag bottom opening plate engages the bottom panel of the bag, while the bag opening plate engages a facing panel of the bag. The bag is opened by actuating the bottom and opening plates. When the bag is open, the pusher arm pushes the article from the conveyor into the opened bag. The filled bag is then moved to another conveyor for packing.
