ABSTRACT:
Presented herein is a sand bag filling machine having a hopper mounted to a frame. An upper table is moveably mounted beneath the hopper. The upper table has a plurality of holes that align with a bottom opening on the hopper as the table moves from a first position to a second position. When the table is in either the first position or the second position, the table blocks the flow of sand from the hopper. Below the upper table is a holding apparatus for suspending the bags from the upper table while allowing sand to flow from the hopper and into the bags. In one embodiment, a lower table catches the filled sand bags. The lower table can be pivotable about an axis facilitating removal of the sand bags. A method of use is also presented.
