DEFINITION

Classification: 141/129

(under the class definition) Apparatus comprising filling systems of one or more filling stations or heads and conveying means for receivers by which the filled receivers are replaced by empty ones progressively, i.e., the filled receiver does not move through the same path as the empty one and succession is insured by some means or mode of operation of the machine.

(1) Note. The conveying means may comprise any device within the class definition of Classes 193, 198, 214, and related classes. If the conveyor is a mere guide it must be possible to move the filled receiver by pushing on the succeeding empty one.

(2) Note. Multiple-headed machines of the progressive type, i.e., having plural receivers in different stages of filling during rotation or translation of the group, are included even though the receivers are places and removed by hand at the beginning and end of the course.
