  • Apparatus for and method of gently packaging a product
    Patent number: 5411171
    Abstract: An apparatus and method for gently packaging a product having a consistency which can be affected by external influences and is composed of a plurality of separable components which are advanced along a transport path, includes a plurality of rods which are movable in longitudinal direction between a first position in which the rods extend transversely to the transport path and a second position in which the rods are withdrawn from the transport path. By alternating the back and forth movement between successively arranged rods, product components can descend in increments to thereby accomplish a separation of product components and loosening of the product.
