PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To dispense with a weighting meter from an automatic weighting and boxing apparatus, to facilitate the maintenance, to weight a box in a more correct manner, and to simplify the structure of a belt conveyor. SOLUTION: This automatic boxing apparatus 61 comprises 24 charging conveyors 72 which are arranged orthogonal to the carrying direction of a grader 24 and continuously provided on a discharge passage 80, a support device 74 having an air cylinder 73 which turnably connects base ends of the charging conveyors 72 to a tip of the discharge passage 80, a roller conveyor 75 to carry a box H to the downstream side, and a box-changing air cylinder 76 provided on each lower area of the charging conveyors 72, the box-changing air cylinder 76 is expanded/contracted in response to the box-changing signal based on the weight of individual oranges K form a control device 50, and when the oranges K or the predetermined weight, for example, 10 kg are boxed, an empty box H is detected by a sensor S, and when it is pushed, the roller conveyor 75 is driven, and the box is subsequently delivered in the predetermined direction by the roller conveyor 75.
