ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE An automatic wicketted bag loader is suited to load one bag while closing and sealing a preceding bag each bag to contain a predetermined amount of a commodity. A hopper feeds the commodity when desired into a wicket bag which has been opened via mechanism connected to a retractable bottom plate of the hopper. A bag clamping mechanism essentially simultaneously moves into position adjacent the sides of the opened bag and clamps the sides at about the mid-point thereof such that when the plate returns to its position below the hopper the bag sides are drawn apart at the opening to bring the bag faces close together. The bag opening changes its configuration from generally square to a long rectangle. Clamping mechanism then moves laterally to en- compass the bag opening and to clamp the two faces together and to then withdraw the clamped bag from below the hopper. The clamped bag may be heat sealed as it is withdrawn ant then fed to an output conveyor. Following withdrawal another bag may be loaded.
