<p>Disclosed is a process and an apparatus for assembly-packaging pellet-like articles (24a) in units of a predetermined number, characterized in that a pellet-like article group (24) is ejected toward a packaging film (F1) locating at a stand-by position to be gripped together with the packaging film (F1) half-wrapped around the pellet-like article group (24) by an article holding means (G); overlapping edges of the packaging film (F1) gripped by the article holding means (G) are put together and preheat-sealed, followed by sealing thereof to form a sealed rib (fa); the sealed rib (fa) is folded down along the barrel of the pellet-like article group (24) and heat-sealed; each open end portion of the tubular packaging film (F1) is gussetted and partially sealed; the gussetted and partially sealed portions are sealed fully to form sealed tabs (fb), and the unnecessary portions of the tabs (fb) are cut off; and the sealed tabs (fb) are folded down along the end faces of the assembled pellet-like article group (24) and heat-sealed. <IMAGE></p> |
