ARTICLE TRANSFER DEVICE, AND PACKAGING DEVICE AND MEASURING DEVICE WITH THE SAME

摘要

[Problem] To prevent lowering the discharge speed of goods, damaging of goods, or clogging of goods while preventing goods from jumping up and down in a goods transfer device having a hopper that receives the goods dropping from above and discharges to downwards, as well as a packaging device and a weighing device equipped with the goods transfer device. [Solving means] When the goods dropping from above are received inside a hopper, the hopper is allowed to move downwards with the hopper bottom closed. By this, the collision speed between the goods and the hopper bottom is reduced. In addition, by opening the hopper bottom while moving the hopper bottom downwards, the downward initial speed is added to the goods to be discharged.
