ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for discharging contents of a bag which includes an enclosure having a pair of pans mounted for pivotable movement therein, a bag spike associated with each pan mounted for movement along the pivot axis of the pan between a position retracted from the pan to a position impaling a bag resting on the pans, an arrangement for cutting a bag resting on the pan and an arrangement for tilting each of the pans on their axes so as to dump the contents of a bag cut by the cutting arrangement into the bottom of the enclosure, which has an arrangement for removing the contents therefrom. An advantage of this device is that all opening of the bag occurs within the enclosure to minimize contact of the contents of the bag with the operator. To remove dust and air from the substantially empty bags, flattening weights are provided above each pan in the cover and are released to flatten the bag to expel dust and air from the empty bag.
