ABSTRACT:
A method of closing boxes in which the open-ended boxes and covers are sequentially fed to a box-closing station with the top of each cover overlying the open end of the box. Fitting-leaves are interposed between the outer face of the open end of the box, and the inner face of the peripheral side wall of the cover, while relative movement is effected between the cover and the box towards each other, such as to fit the cover over the open end of the box. The apparatus includes a lift which raises the box into fitted engagement with the cover supported on the fitting-leaves at the box-closing station.
