ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to an apparatus for adhering straws, each being packed in a plastic film, to external surfaces of beverage vessels for milk, juice, etc. which are sold by vendor machines. Specifically, a straw adhering apparatus for beverage vessels wherein a continuous laminated plastic film strip which incorporates straws separately and individually and is provided with an array of punched feed holes at upper and lower end parts of the strip is cut into individual straw packs by a cutter on the way of the strip feed passage. Upper and lower edges of each straw pack are delivered respectively by a pair of seizing feed belts to the main carrying conveyor path for a beverage vessel to which the straw pack is adhered to an external surface of the beverage vessel onto which an adhesive agent is applied in advance. An adhesion retaining belt which maintains a state of adhesion of the straw pack to the beverage vessel is provided at a side of the main carrying conveyor. A vessel top holding belt which prevents rocking of beverage vessels is provided at the upper position and straw packs are positively adhered consecutively to beverage vessels which are intermittently delivered by the separating turret provided in the path of the main conveyor.
