The invention relates to a dispensing apparatus for packaging a material, wherein the dispensing apparatus comprises a vertical and downwardly tapering hopper element (1) in which the material being dispensed is arranged, comprising more than two side walls with corners therebetween, at least two elongated plate-shaped parts (4) attached substantially horizontally in connection with at least two side walls of the hopper element so as to extend from one corner of the hopper element to another, and a dispensing element (2, 3) arranged at the tapering end of the hopper element, through which dispensing element the material is dispensed, and at least one vibrator arranged in connection with the hopper element (1) to provide vibration of the hopper element via the elongated plate-shaped part (4) to the side walls of the hopper element. Further, the invention relates to the use of the apparatus.

Embodiments of a cell traverse for an aseptic region of a filling machine for filling packages with flowable products are provided. The cell traverse includes a frame structure with at least one first lateral longitudinal structure, at least one second lateral longitudinal structure opposite the first longitudinal structure, and a plurality of transverse elements arranged between the first and second longitudinal structures and connecting the longitudinal structures. Between the longitudinal structures and the transverse elements there are a plurality of cells of the cell traverse for receiving packages to be filled. At least some of the transverse elements are connected exclusively in an form-fit and/or force-fit manner to the longitudinal structures.

Also included are a plurality of transverse elements arranged between the first and second longitudinal structures and connecting the longitudinal structures. Between the longitudinal structures and the transverse elements a plurality of cells of the cell traverse are formed for receiving packages to be filled. The cell traverse also includes insert elements, which each have the frame structure, in particular at least one longitudinal structure and/or at least one transverse element, and at least some of the insert elements are detachably connected to the frame structure of the cell traverse.

[Technical Problem] A distance of a front free end portion of the gas nozzle being weighed down due to its own weight is alleviated or eliminated to suppress contact between the gas nozzle and a product. [Solution to Problem] The present invention provides a packaging apparatus equipped with gas replacement function. In the packaging apparatus, a gas nozzle 43 is inserted into a tubular film 20, and inert gas is ejected from the gas nozzle, thereby replacing the gas inside the tubular film with the inert gas. After gas replacement, a top sealing device 30 seals and cuts the tubular film to form a packaged body. The gas nozzle is formed of magnetic material. A permanent magnet 35 is disposed inside an endless belt 34 of an upper holding belt device 28. The gas nozzle formed of magnet material is drawn to be raised due to magnetic force of the permanent magnet. Due to this contact between the gas nozzle and a product is suppressed.

A medication packaging device includes a frame structure on which a guide unit is removably fastened, the guide unit having multiple receptacle openings and a dispensing opening. The device also includes multiple storage and dispensing stations, each having a storage housing and a dispensing station having a medication dispensing channel, as well as a holding unit having a plurality of mounts. For each mount, a medication slide and a storage and dispensing station are arranged such that the receptacle openings of the medication slides are associated with the medication dispensing channels of the dispensing stations and the dispensing openings of the medication slides are associated with the receptacle openings of the guide unit. The holding unit and the frame structure are fastened on or in the device to be movable relative to one another so that the guide unit is accessible from outside the device when in an access position.
