Abstract (en)

An apparatus for feeding cartons which comprises a guide for holding the carton in alignment with a mandrel outwardly thereof while rendering the carton free to move inward toward the mandrel or outward away therefrom, a slider reciprocatingly movable inward and outward along the guide, a carton pushing pawl pivotably mounted on the slider so as to be pivotally movable between a position of engagement with the carton as held by the guide and a nonengagement position, and a spring for urging the pawl to pivotally move toward the engagement position. With the outward movement of the slider, the pawl is pivotally moved from the engagement position to the nonengagement position against the spring by coming into contact with the inner end of the carton as held by the guide and further moves along the outer surface of the carton from its inner end to the outer end thereof. <IMAGE>
