ABSTRACT:
A film wrapping machine for wrapping a film around a container comprising a rotary turntable assembly for transporting containers from one station to another. The machine includes a film supply unit for supplying each film onto a respective container carried by the turntable assembly, and a plurality of film retaining members one for each container carried by the turntable assembly. During the rotation of the turntable assembly, the film retaining meers are successively lifted to a raised position and are then rotated around the respective containers for turning the films therearound. Each film retaining member has suction openings defined therein in at least two rows, one row of the suction openings being adapted to suck one end of the respective film and the other row of the suction openings adapted to such a portion of the respective film adjacent the other end thereof. Rotation of the film retaining member results in the turning of the respective film around the associated container to form the film tube. This sequence takes place during the rotation of the turntable assembly while the containers are successively transported thereby.
