PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a package supply apparatus for supplying band packages of unstable positions altogether in a sideway fallen state at stages without inviting any specialization of a box manufacturing apparatus.SOLUTION: A package supply apparatus 100 characterized: in that a multi-articulated robot 102 includes suction cups 121 for sucking packages 300; in that an alignment bed 103 includes a placing bed 131 inclined to place packages 300, and a regulation plate 132; in that the multi-articulated robot 102 arrays and places the bottom face of the packages 300 toward the regulation plate 132 and the side face of the package 300 sequentially in the ascending direction of a slope toward the placing bed 131, and advances and places the packages 300 such that the extending direction of the irregularities of the individual packages 300 are offset from the extending direction of the irregularities of the packages 300 of the immediately lower layer in a layer formation; and in that the packages 300 thus arrayed are extruded and supplied altogether downstream of the extrusion direction by an extrusion plate 124. |
