Nbv. 3, 1931. L. H. DIETSCH GUIDE FOR BAG FILLING APPARATUS Filed Nov. 22. 1930 Jwiwntor mfm/ ' is hingedly connected to the standard 10 ad- Patented Nov. 3, 1931 LEO H. DIETSGH,-OF ED(Edtlllt'lON, OHEO GUIDE FOR BAG FILLING APPARATUS Application filed November 22, 1930. aria- No. 49?,428.
This invention relates to bag filling apparatus-but more particularly to apparatus for filling paper bags with articles, such as apples, which may be bruised easily.
An object of the invention is to produce a simple and eflicient guide for a bag filling apparatus, which is adapted to open the bag mouth and retain the same inopen position in order that the bag maybe readily filled.
Another object is to produce a simple and e'tlicient guide tor a bag filling apparatus having the new and improved-features of construction, arrangement and operation hereinatterdescribed; v
For purposes of illustration, but not of limitation, an embodiment of the invention is shown on the accompanying drawings, 1n which:
Fig. 1 is a side elevation partly in section of a bag filling apparatus;
Fig. 2 is an enlarged top plan view of the receiver and guide therefor; and
Fig. 3 is a top plan view of the guide showing the same in bag-releasing position.
The illustrated embodiment of the invention comprises a bag filling apparatus having a standard 10 on which is pivotally mounted a receiver 11, which is charged with the mate rial, and a bag supporting cradle 12 which jacent the upper portion thereof. The cradle 12 is adapted to be swung outwardly substantially in line with the inclined bottom wall of the receiver 11 by a treadle 18 through a cable 14. The above general description of the construction and operation of the bag filling apparatus is deemed sufiicient, but detial description thereof may be found in my co-pending application Serial No. 492,671,
filed November 1, 1930, entitled Apparatus the receiver 11 is a guide 15, it being apparent that wings 1c project outwardly from the receiver, and to these wings are pivoted the opposite sides of the guide 15. The guide 15 is of general tubular form, and serves to guide the flow of material from the receiver 11 into a bag on the cradle 12. r The guide is adapted to extend into the mouth of the bag the guide from the bag. v
A'somevvhat res lient rod 20- is bent upon away from the handle.
and may be extended outwardly in order snugly to engage the bag mouth for holding I the same open. This is particularly important in connection'with paper bags, although the apparatus may be used to advantage with each other when the members are moved laterally toward each *o'l her, as will hereina'tter appear. v
Anope'ra'ting connection is provided hetween the members 16 and 17 for laterally moving them in one "direction or the outer. 1 W hen the members are extendedor moved from each other it will be manifest that the bag mounthis retained in open'position, and the guide may snugly -fit the bag to insure the flow or passage of material tronithe receiver to the inside of the bag. In'accord ance with the embodiment of the invention a singleoperating element in the form or a handle 20 is provided for this purpose. When the handle is moved in one direction the guide members '16 and 17 are moved outwardly or intobagengaging position,'and when moved in the opposite direction are moved to bag releasing position, thereby readily remove itself interi'nedi ate its ends to provide a handle 20 and adjacent portions 21 on 0pposi'te sidesar-e bent at an angle in a direction The guide 15 is preterably' of sheet metal, and secured as by rivets 23 to the members 16 andl'!- are inclined hinge elements tirough which the portions 21 extend. .The advantage of having the guide members of sheet metal is that'a slight amount of yielding can be obtained in order toaccommodate bags ot'varying size. It will be apparent that the bar lle 291's also adapted to yieldwhen subjected to strain.
Since the sides of the guide members 16 and 17 adjacent the receiver 11 are held against lateral movement by the pivotal connections above described, it is apparent that when the handle 20 is swung in a direction away from the receiver, the guide members 16 and 17 are moved or cammed in a lateral direction away from each other, thereby extending the outer end portions of the guide members to openthe mouth of the bag and retain the same in position. lVhen the handle 20 is swung in the opposite direction toward the receiver the guide members16 and 17 are cammed toward each other in order to release the bag.
In practice, this movement is the natural movement in releasing the bag since the guide is swung away from the bag after the same has been filled. This is accomplished by swinging the receiver 11 upwardly to remove the guide from the bag. The handleQO enables this to be readily accomplished, since the same movement of swinging the receiver I away from the bag-supporting cradle also functions to release the bag since the guide members or jaws are moved inwardly upon upward movement of the handle. I
Reversely bent portions 24: of the rod above described are adapted to cooperate with plates 25 riveted or otherwise secured to the guide members 16 and 17 for clamping the bag mouth in position. Then the handle 20 is swung in a direction away from the receiver 11 for extending the guide members 16 and 17, the clamping portions 24 are accordingly moved toward the clamping plates 25,. and when the guide members are in full extended position the clamping members 24 are substantially in engagement with the plates 25. It is, therefore. desirable that the guide 15 extend into the bag to such a dis- 1,ss0,e45 I f F L tions of said wire disposed on opposite sides of said handle, bearing elements on said sections respectively-for said inclined portions whereby actuation of said handle in one direction imparts outward movement of said sections, and when swung in the opposite direction imparts inward movement to said section. 5 1
2. In a bag filling apparatus having a receiver, means for guiding material from said receiver, said means comprising a pair of sections arranged in overlapping relationship, a pivotal connection between the overlapping portions of said sections,-means for moving said sections toward or away from each other, said means comprising a length of wire bent upon itself intermediate the ends thereof to provide a handle, inclined portions of said wire disposed on opposite sides of said handle, bearing elements on said sections respectively for said inclined portions wherebyactuation of. said handle in one directionimparts outward movement of said sections, and when swung in the opposite direction. imparts'inward movement to said section, and inwardly bent endportions on said wire adapted to engage a bag slipped over said sections for retaining same in place when said sections are in outward position.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto signed my name to this specification.
Y LEO H. .DIETSGH.
tance that the marginal edge is properly positioned to be engaged by the clamping members 24.
When filling gunny sacks, or the like, books 26 secured to the guide members 16 and 17 may be used. The sacks may be hooked over the hooks to prevent them from dropping away during the extending movement of the guide members.
It is to be understood that numerous changes in details of construction, arrange ment and operation may be effected with; j
out departing from the spirit of the invention. especially as defined in the appended claims.
What I claim is: 3
1. In a bag filling apparatus having a receiver, means for guidingmaterial from said receiver, said means comprising a pair of sections arranged'in overlapping relationship, a pivotal connection between the overlapping portions of said sections, means for moving said sections toward or away from each other, said means comprisinga length of wire bent upon itself intermediate the ends thereof to. provide a handle, inclined por
