ABSTRACT:
A case packing apparatus comprising a stacking assembling, a case positioning assembly, and a pusher assembly. The stacking assembly is provided to form a stack of articles; the case positioning assembly is provided to receive a case in a receiving position and to move the case to a loading position, wherein an open end of the case is located adjacent that stack of articles; and the pusher assembly is provided to push the stack of articles into the case. The case positioning assembly includes an engagement member and a pivot arm that is spaced from the engagement member when the case is in the receiving position; and, as the case is moved toward the loading position, the pivot arm engages the engagement member and pivots the case about an upwardly moving axis to move the case into its loading position.
