A bird feeder comprising an outer enclosure having one or more access ports to the interior of the enclosure and an insert mounted for telescoping movement into the interior of the outer enclosure. The insert is formed with at least one compartment for storing feed with one or more openings into the insert adapted to permit access to the compartment. The insert is dimensioned to define a collection space between the outer enclosure and the insert when the insert is telescoped into the interior of the outer member. The collection space accumulates feed spilled from the compartment by feeding birds to prevent wastage. The insert is movable between a first raised position in which the openings in the insert generally align with the access ports of the outer enclosure to permit feeding by birds, and a second lowered position in which the compartment of the insert is positioned to automatically receive spilled feed from the collection space.

This invention is directed to a novel bag sealing machine. More particularly, this invention is directed to a novel machine which can be used for sealing and securing bags which are loaded and held in boxes. The bags in the boxes are loaded from the top with a designated product before the opening at the top of the bag is sealed by the machine. A bag sealing apparatus comprising: (a) conveyor means for conveying through the apparatus a loaded bag which has an opening at the top of the bag; (b) upwardly bag wall forcing means for forcing the open end of the bag upwardly into gripping means, said gripping means drawing the gripped portion of the bag together to accumulate the gripped portion of the bag into a neck-like portion; (c) bag side support means located downstream from the upwardly bag wall forcing means for supporting the side of the bag and drawing it in a downstream direction along the conveyor means; (d) neck accepting and accumulating means located downstream from the upwardly bag wall forcing means for accepting and accumulating the neck of the bag as formed by the gripping means upstream; and, (e) means for applying a fastening means about the circumference of the accumulated neck of the bag after it has been accepted by the neck accepting and accumulating means.

Bag sealing machine

An automatic case erector and sealer apparatus useful in the erecting of packaging cases, boxes and cartons from flats, utilizing case puncturing and gripping pins, spraying adhesive onto the interior surfaces of the case flaps, while the flaps are in a semi-open position, and sealing the minor and major flaps of the erected flats with compression to thereby secure the major and minor flaps for subsequent filling of the formed case, box or carton with consumer goods.
