ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for supplying bags of pliable or easily flexible material includes a vacuum mechanism for successively picking up the uppermost bag in a stack of the bags and transporting the same to a take-up roll mechanism. A delivering mechanism picks up the respective bag held by a holding mechanism at predetermined position and transports the same to the next processing station. The holding mechanism comprises an inclined holding plate having a stopper plate at the lower transverse edge so as to permit the respective bag received at the upper transverse edge to slide down along the upper surface of the holding plate until it is arrested by the stopper plate. An air discharge pipe extends longitudinally on the upper surface of the holding plate in the direction of transport of the bag. Air is discharged through a plurality of air discharge holes formed in the wall of the air discharge pipe between the upper surface of the holding plate and the bag sliding down the plate. This insures frictionless sliding action of the bag thereby positively preventing bending or change in presentation of the bag from occuring. Vacuum heads are located on the lower surface of the holding plate in alignment with openings formed in the holding plate so as to positively hold the bag on the upper surface of the holding plate at the predetermined position until the delivering mechanism is operated.
