FILLING STATION FOR PLEAT-SIDED BAGS Abstract of the Disclosure A filling station for filling pleat-sided bags includes means for transporting such bags in flat form to a filling position. A plurality of spreading members are disposed adjacent each of the opposed nonpleated front and rear faces of the bag, and have claws thereon which are adapted to be moved to engage the opposing interior edges of the bag adjacent its openable mouth. The spreading members adjacent each given side of the bag are adapted to be moved away from one another in a direction substantially parallel to the planes of the front and rear bag faces, and the spreading members on opposite sides of the hag are also adapted to be moved away from one another in directions transverse to said planes whereby at least some of the spreading members on opposite sides of the bag move into the corners of the openable mouth of the bag as the spreading members on opposite sides of the bag, moving away from one another in directions transverse to the planes of the front and rear bag faces, unfold the pleated side faces of the bag and open the mouth of the bag. A filling funnel disposed outside of the bag adjacent the bag mouth is moved into the bag via the opened mouth of the bag, and additional clamping means disposed adjacent the exterior of the several faces of the bag are moved into engagement with those faces to clamp the faces of the bag to the filling funnel during the filling of the bag.
