Abstract

A fully automated bag filling and sealing apparatus is disclosed. The bag sealing apparatus incorporates heat sealing bars mounted on a carriage movable between a first position adjacent to the filling spout for receiving filled bags, and a second position wherein filled and sealed bags are released. The same carriage supports clamping bars to clamp and support a filled bag after removal from the spout, while the bag is being sealed by the sealing bars. Automatically controlled bag supply apparatus delivers bags by a conveyor into position to be picked up by a bag transfer assembly which swings to a position wherein it accurately places the mouth of a bag on the filling spout. The filler spout is pivotally movable between a first bag receiving and filling commencing position, and a second bag release position for engagement by the clamping and sealing bars.
