<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a boxing apparatus which prevents the wiring or the like of a sensor from becoming hindrance when a work retention means 10 that stores and insert a work 2 into a case 6 turns. <P>SOLUTION: The work 2 conveyed by a work transport bucket conveyer 4 is retained by the work retention insert means 10 and inserted into the case 6 conveyed by the case conveyer 8. When the work 2 in several stacked layers is inserted into the case 6, the work retention insert means 10 turns by 180 degrees so that each layer is stacked stage by stage in the reverse direction. As a sensor to detect whether the work 2 is retained or not, a photoelectric tube 48 is provided laterally on the fixed side of the case conveyer 8, and a reflection mirror 90 is provided at the side of the work retention insert means 10. When the work 2 is retained, light from the photoelectric tube 48 is diffused by the work 2, and when not retained, the light is reflected by the reflection mirror 90, thereby enabling the detection of the presence or absence of the work 2. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT |
