ABSTRACT:
An easily transportable and mechanized bag filling machine preferably used for filling sandbags at a high rate of speed to meet the requirement for a lare number of filled sandbags in areas where conditions such as flooding exist. The mechanized bag filling machine includes a pivotable trailer-mounted bag filling assembly comprising a receptacle with a cross auger, a conveyor, and a chute having bagging heads. The trailer-mounted assembly is conveniently movable from a transport position wherein the conveyor lies substantially horizontal on the trailer to a work position wherein the conveyor is inclined by actuating a cylinder connected at one end to the trailer and at its other end to the underside of the conveyor. The bagging heads are supported in an upright position on one end of the conveyor during transport, and they are pivoted to extend downwardly after the conveyor is elevated to an inclined position. The machine is self-contained and includes its own power plant, clamping devices to hold empty bags under the bagging heads, sealing mechanism to seal filled bags, and motors for driving the conveyor and auger in the receptacle.
