ABSTRACT:
An apparatus is disclosed for automatically placing valve vented bags on a filling spout. The apparatus includes a first table disposed adjacent a bag conveyor for sequentially receiving individual bags from the conveyor. A first bag clamp is disposed adjacent the first table for sequentially clamping the bags against the table. A first retractable suction cup device cooperates with the bags for opening the valve vent of clamped bags. A first bag gripper is located on a first carriage supported and guided by a first pair of rails. The first pair of rails are pivotally mounted such that the first carriage is alternately guided to a plurality of filling spouts. The gripper grips the open valve vented bag and transfers the open bag to one of the plural filling spouts.
