<p>The present invention relates to an improved method and apparatus for packing bottles or the like in cartons. Bottles or the like are arranged in columns and rows in open containers and partition strips are inserted therebetween. The partition strip material is delivered in continuous length to one or a plurality of partition inserting stations whereupon the material is cut off at the desired length, collected by mechanical fingers and inserted downwardly between the rows and columns of bottles or the like. The partition strips at one station are inserted transversely to the partition strips at the next immediate station, the subsequently inserted strips serving to force the first-mentioned strips downwardly between the columns or rows of partitions. This invention provides for tight packages with little or no risk of breakage as a result of relative vibration between the packed bottles.</p> |
