ABSTRACT:
A guide mechanism for a case packer is characterized by a mounting member, a plurality of guide member fingers, and a plurality of expansion springs, each spring connecting a different finger to the mounting member and also biasing the bottom of the finger towards a converging position with the other finger bottoms. The springs act substantially vertically, enabling substantially unlimited universal pivoting of the fingers relative to the mounting member and thereby reducing the likelihood of finger breakage in the event of a jam.
