[Prior art]
As for individual packaging of the infusion bag a in a form in which a predetermined amount of a chemical solution is filled and sealed in a container b in which a flange d is formed at the rim of the narrowly-filled inlet port c shown in FIG. This was done by a typical horizontal pillow wrapping machine. The packaging method by this packaging machine is a cylindrical part formed by continuously rolling out a resin film wound in a roll shape and wrapping the infusion bag a fed by a conveyor while continuously folding it in a cylindrical shape by a bag making machine. After the heat seal is applied to the seam at the center of the package, the parts to be separated from the package are heat sealed by an end sealer, and at the same time, the parts are separated and packaged one by one. .

[Problems to be solved by the invention]
In the conventional horizontal pillow packaging machine, since the resin film and the infusion bag a are packaged while being continuously sent together, the configuration is simple. However, since the infusion bag a has a thickness of about 25 to 50 mm, the joints of the cylinder part wrapped with the resin film are likely to be uneven, and when heat sealing is performed as it is in that state, It cannot be denied that the sealing of the cylinder part or the separation part is insufficient, and the quality of the product seal tends to vary. In particular, if the article to be packaged is an infusion bag a or a food product, it can be said that it is desirable from the viewpoint of hygiene that the package is individually packaged with a packaging bag having a good seal portion. Therefore, in view of such problems, the present applicant has developed a new charging device for a rotary machine or a linear movement type packaging machine including a linear movement part and semicircular movement parts at both ends.
