ABSTRACT:
A container supply system supplies a plurality of containers such bottles encased in a box to a container processing machine such as a bottle washing machine. The container supply system includes a box reverser for reversing the box with the bottles encased therein, a container holder disposed for holding the bottles discharged from the reversed box and thereafter releasing the bottles, a container receiver having a plurality of container receiver members for receiving the bottles, respectively, and a container ejector having a plurality of container ejector members for pushing the bottles from the container receiver to the container processing machine. In one embodiment, the container receiver is positioned below the box reverser. In another embodiment, the box reverser and the container receiver are spaced from each other, and a delivery carriage is provided for receiving the containers from the box reverser and delivering the received containers to the container receiver. Since the containers are directly supplied to the container processing machine by reversing the box which encases the containers, the containers can be smoothly and reliably delivered without the danger of falling over which would otherwise be encountered if the containers were individually supplied by a container conveyor.
