A continuous train of packages of deoxidizing agent and apparatus for severing packages from that train.

摘要

A belt-like package train (10) having at least a surface layer made of a plastic comprises a plurality of packages (20) connected in series in one direction by sealed webs (24). Each package (20) is charged with a deoxidizing agent such as a metal powder, e.g., iron powder. The package train is coiled on a core (28) made of a thick paper material having a low air-permeability. The coiled package train is disposed on the inlet side of an automatic severing apparatus (12) and is successively fed into the apparatus so that the packages are successively severed from the train beginning with the outermost layer of the coiled package train.
