An insertion system (e.g., in a warehouse or other item-fulfillment environment) can include a chassis. A bottom conveying surface, a first side conveying surface, and a second side conveying surface may be fastened to the chassis respectively along the chassis's bottom face, first lateral face, and second lateral face. A chamber may be bounded by the conveying surfaces and by a rear wall defined at least in part by the front face of the chassis. A linear actuator coupled with the chassis may move the chassis from a home position and toward an extended position to advance the bottom conveying surface, the first side conveying surface, and the second side conveying surface along with the rear wall of the chamber to decrease a size of the chamber and advance contents of the chamber in a depth direction toward a receiving zone.

The invention describes a filling device with a discharge container for filling upwardly open packaging containers with at least one opening flap for opening and closing a discharge opening for the product, the opening flap being moveable along a path between a closed position and an open position by means of a driving element. At least one delay device is provided by means of which the movement of the opening flap may be delayed on a section of the path.

A width-adjustable packaging bag shaper, a bag maker, a packaging machine, and a method. The packaging machine including the bag maker, a traction device and a heat sealing device are respectively arranged above the bag maker, and a width adjustment device adjusts the distances between different sub bottom plates in a front bottom plate and a rear bottom plate by using a leadscrew and slide block mechanism, and then adjusts the width of a bottom plate. The leadscrew and slide block mechanism is used as the width adjustment device of the automatic width-adjustable noodle packaging bag shaper system, and four bottom plates are respectively fixed to the width adjustment device, so the leadscrew and slide block mechanism in operation is accurate in range of adjustment, is suitable for various widths of packaging bags, and has very important significance for the three-dimensional shaping effect of the packaging bags.

A method for manufacturing a rectangular-bottomed packaging bag includes an unfolding step of unfolding a flat bag by separating a pair of opening/closing plates (13) inserted into the flat bag from each other in a thickness direction of the flat bag, and a gusset forming step, after the unfolding step, of forming a side gusset and a bottom gusset by thrusting folding plates (11 and 12) between the pair of opening/closing plates (13) from the outside of the bag toward the inside of the bag.
