Embodiment Construction

[0039] Detailed description of the preferred embodiment

[0040] Referring to the drawings, the apparatus indicated generally at 10 is supported on a frame 16 . The apparatus includes a bagging station 20 having a bag gate station 22 associated therewith, and a bag transfer station 26 . The bagging station includes a vertically reciprocating hopper 28 driven by a pneumatic cylinder 30 for reciprocating vertical movement. Supply conduit 32 loads grain or other loose, bulk cargo (not shown) into hopper 28 . The flow of goods from the hopper 28 is controlled by an expandable jaw structure 34 defining the lower portion of the hopper 28 and comprising a fixed jaw member 36 and a movable jaw member 38 rotatable about a horizontal axis. By means of a pneumatic cylinder 40 mounted on the hopper 28, the movable jaw member 38 is driven to reciprocate, separate and converge with the fixed jaw member 36. In the closed position shown in FIG. 2 , the corresponding jaw structure 34 is clo...

Abstract

Automated apparatus for filling of a bag with a loose commodity comprises a bag filling station (20) for dispensing commodity into a bag; a wicket (22) for feeding a stacked and interconnected array of empty bags (46); and a conveyor (54) for removing filled bags from the filling station. Reciprocating clamps (50) grip the open mouths of the filled bags, and transfer the filled bags away from the filling station, with a subsequent bag being drawn into appropriate position for filling by means of the connection formed between the contacting bags.

Description

field of invention [0001] The present invention relates to a packaging technique and in particular to an apparatus and method for bagging loose goods such as seeds or grains by automated means and conveying the filled bags to a bag closing station or other processing devices. Background of the invention [0002] Bagging of bulk goods such as seeds or grains requires automated equipment for sequentially filling measured quantities or weights of goods into open bags which are then conveyed to a heat sealing station or otherwise used to seal the bags. closed device. Usually in this type of equipment, bulk goods are loaded into open bags through a hopper. When the measured quantity is loaded, the bags are removed from the hopper and unloaded from the equipment. Usually individual bags are placed sequentially below the hopper. Modern cargo handling operations require bagging equipment that can operate quickly and efficiently, i.e. missing bags (one of which is missed while co...
