  • Patent number: 5555700
    Abstract: A bottle conveying and packaging system has guide tracks for guiding groups of bottles positioned adjacent one another in a transverse direction, from a grouping station to a packaging station. The guide tracks correspond in number to the transversely lying bottles in the groups, and the tracks engage beneath collars of the bottles located beneath the bottle closures thereof. The tracks have horizontal, upwardly inclined and downwardly inclined sections, and push rods on an endless belt are provided for pushing the groupings along the tracks from an incoming conveyor to the packaging station at which the bottles rest on a conveyor at that station where packaging material is fed, whereafter the packaged groupings are conveyed to a foil wrapping station.

  • Patent number: 5148654
    Abstract: A group of objects is packaged in a package formed of a blank having a base panel, base flaps joined at respective longitudinally extending fold lines to the base panel, a pair of side panels joined at respective transversely extending fold lines to and longitudinally flanking the base panel, and respective pairs of side flaps joined at respective longitudinally extending side fold lines to the side panels. Each pair of side flaps transversely flanks the respective side panel. The blank is advanced longitudinally parallel to the side fold lines to a loading station with the blank horizontal and similarly the group of objects is advanced horizontally and longitudinally to the station and deposited on the base panel there. The side flaps are folded up through about 90.degree. and thereafter the base flaps are folded up through between 45.degree. and 80.degree.. The side panels are then folded up through about 90.degree.
