Abstract (en)
A pre-made bag filling and closing apparatus. The device provides a vertical cam (104) upon which hoppers (60) travel. The cam (104) has a varying height permitting the hoppers (60) to move vertically relative to the bag. In a second embodiment, the apparatus includes a second cam (264) horizontally disposed. This second cam (264) cooperates with bag handling devices (210) to grip, open and close the bag. The second cam (264) cooperates in an actuation relationship with the bag handling device (210). <IMAGE>
