  • a web of parent material is generally introduced in V- or iv-formation and a length representing the width of the bag to be produced is cut oif, transverse sealing seams having previously been applied along the lines of ultimate separation. Bags made in this way have to be transferred to a conveyor wheel equipped with retaining grippers, or to a conveyor chain, for filling purposes and must also be passed to a filling and closing device.
  • one embodiment of a machine comprises a feed wheel which is rotatable about a horizontal axis and has a plurality of gripper devices arranged around the periphery thereof, means for feeding a continuous web of parent stock, for example paper, from a supply to said feed wheel, an oscillating folder associated with said feed wheel, means for intermittently rotating said feed wheel to bring the gripper device thereof in turn into a position for cooperation with said folder, means for separating successive blanks from said web to release them in turn for engagement between the folder and the cooperating gripper forfolding each blank transversely between its r end and providing it with a V- or W-section bottom folding, a filling wheel rotatable about a vertical axis and havingradial bag compartments, means for transferring the bottom-folded blanks in turn from said feed wheel into said compartments mouth uppermost, and means for filling the bags in the compartments.
