ABSTRACT The invention relates to an automatic feeder device for charging the full trays over the hopper of the machines for packing cigarettes, and for discharging the empty trays from the hopper, by the aid of a tray-carrying casing provided with a gate for closing the tray mouth, and with tray-holding means cooperating with the bottom of the tray. The device comprises a path (4) for the feeding of the full trays (2'), which is directed towards the hopper (1), and a path (6) for the discharge of the empty trays (2"), which is arranged below the tray-feeding path (4) and is directed away from the hopper (1), a loading-and-unloading inclined frame (8-8, 9, 10) being provided so that its longitudinal side members (8, 8) extend laterally to the path (4) and to the path (6, 5), respectively for the feeding and the discharge of the trays (2', 2"), in the forward upward direction as far as above the inlet opening of the hopper (1), which frame (8-8, 9, 10) is swingably mounted around a transversely extending axis, so that it is caused to alternately assume two annular positions: a less inclined position in which its upper fore end is lowered toward the inlet opening of hopper (1), and another more inclined position in which its upper fore end is lifted up from the inlet opening of the hopper (1). The tray-carrying casing (17) is so mounted as to be longitudinally slidable, and at the same time rotatable around an axis (27) transversely extending between the side members (8) of the loading and unloading frame (8-8, 9, 10), from an overturned upper position over the inlet opening of the hopper (1), through an upstanding intermediate position in which it causes the empty tray (2") to fall down onto the respective tray-discharge path (6), to an upstanding lower position in which it withdraws a full tray (2') from the respective tray-feeding path (4), to be then again moved into its upper position, while being overturned during the said movement.
