Abstract

A device for making available and delivering sacks which can be supplied in hoppers (1). In order to allow a continuous removal of sacks it is provided that a substantially vertical guide chute (3) is provided whose at least one wall (16) is provided with a plurality of slots (15) extending mutually parallel and vertically, into which two lifting grates (4, 5) held vertically displaceable are laterally insertable and the hoppers (1) which are provided for receiving a stack of sacks (6, 7) are provided with bearing rods (2) whose mutual distance corresponds to the distance of the bridges between the slots (15) of the guide chute (3) or an integral multiple of the same and whose width corresponds maximally to the width of these bridges, with the height of the guide chute (3) exceeding three times the height of the hoppers (1) or the stack of sacks (6, 7) held in the same and the open clearance of the guide chute (3) exceeds the cross section of the hoppers (1) at least in the lowermost zone in which the hoppers (1) are insertable and in the case of a hopper (1) which is inserted in the guide chute (3) the bearing rods (2) of the same extend above the lower end of the slots (15) of the guide chute (3) between the same.
