Title: Confection packaging machine
IPC: B65B5/10
Filed: 1979-06-25
Abstract: Automatic confection packaging machine for high speed packing of frozen confections in containers comprises parallel product conveyors (23 to 26) carrying confections from a continuous confection manufacturing process and a conveyor (11) perpendicular to the product conveyors and carrying parallel lanes of empty cartons to be loaded with rows of these confections at stations (15 to 18) by means of loading heads. Each loading head includes grippers which removes a row of the confections transversely from a respective product conveyor, and a stripper which strips the confections from the grippers as the grippers are raised. Provision is made for interrupting the flow of confections from the manufacturing process to the loading heads without necessity of stopping the manufacturing process.
