ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE Machines are provided for loading fish in boxes. The novel machinery has a first conveyor supporting a series of transport containers and serving to transfer fish sideways while each is disposed in its respec- tive transport container in a preselected position with the heads of fish in adjacent containers facing in opposite directions and the bellies thereof directed upwards. Cooperation feed means are provided for supplying fish to the transport containers of the first conveyor, and a second conveyor is pro- vided for receiving fish from the first conveyor, the second conveyor having a series of catch devices, each such catch device being adapted to engage its respective fish and to effect transfer thereof to an associated box for deposition therein. The two conveyors are arranged to be driven at a uniform speed in a continuous circulatory movement. The relative disposition of the conveyors is such that local regions of the paths of movement of the catch devices and the transport containers coincide, thus enabling the catch de- vices to engage their respective fish in the transport containers one after the other. The fish are retained on the second conveyor in groups between corresponding groups of catch devices by means of cooperating, co-travelling check elements within a preselected region of the path of movement of the second conveyor between a first position in which the fish are lightly clamped together between the catch devices and a second position in which a group of fish can be transferred to its associated box. By this machine it is possible to increase the capacity per minute by a factor of four, without reducing the quality of the raw material or of the finished product.
