<p>A continuous container-supplying apparatus in which a plurality of container holding assemblies (56), each comprising right-side and left-side holding members (57, 58) are provided on conveyor belts (54, 55) that run as an integral unit along an annular track that has a pair of parallel sections. Containers are intermittently supplied to the container holding assemblies (56) on one side of the parallel sections, and then converted into a continuous movement in a single row on another side of the parallel sections so that containers are continuously supplied to a filling and packaging system. The right-side holding members (57) are provided on the upper conveyor belt (54), and the left-side holding members are provided on the lower conveyor belt (55). When containers of different width are to be supplied, the relative positional relationship of the upper and lower conveyor belts (54, 55) in the conveying direction is adjusted so as to change the spacing between the right-side and left-side holding members (57, 58). <IMAGE></p> |
