It is an object of the present invention to provide a weighing device in which dropping of articles from gripping means and reductions in weighing precision are suppressed. In a weighing device (100), when at least one of an operation state of grippers (30) and weighing results from weighing units (40) fulfills any condition from among “a weight value of articles (A) weighed by the weighing units (40) not being a preset target weight value,” “an operating distance in an operation in which the articles (A) are held by gripping members (32) being greater than a prescribed range,” and “the operating distance in the operation in which the articles (A) are held by the gripping members (32) being less than the prescribed range,” the articles (A) gripped by the grippers (30) are returned to an article group accommodation container (52) by a control unit (70) without said articles (A) being discharged to a discharge chute. As a result, a situation where the grippers (30) operate while still holding “articles for which the weight value is not the target weight value” is avoided.

SHEET SUPPLY DEVICE AND BOX-MAKING DEVICE PROVIDED WITH SHEET SUPPLY MECHANISM
The present invention addresses the problem of providing a sheet supply device and a box-making device provided with a sheet supply mechanism that achieve labor saving. A sheet supply device (10) supplies box-making sheets (S) to a box-making device (100) that stores a plurality of box-making sheets in a storage unit (112) in an erected state so as to cross a horizontal direction and removes the box-making sheets from the storage unit to make a box. The sheet supply device is provided with a mounting unit (20) and a supply unit (60). The mounting unit receives the plurality of box-making sheets in a laid state from the outside. The supply unit changes the pose of the mounting unit from a first pose (P1) for receiving the plurality of box-making sheets from the outside to a second pose (P2) to thereby change the pose of the plurality of box-making sheets from the laid state to the erected state, and then supplies the plurality of box-making sheets in the changed pose to the box-making device.
A bag-making and packaging apparatus includes a bag-making and packaging unit, a film feeding unit, a splicing device, and a control unit. The control unit allows a bag-making operation to continue by utilizing an auto-feeding function that feeds to the bag-making and packaging unit a film F spliced by the splicing device to take the place of a film F currently being fed to the bag-making and packaging unit. When the control unit judges that at least one of the film feeding unit and the splicing device is malfunctioning in a case where the control unit is utilizing the auto-feeding function, the control unit stops the auto-feeding function and executes a non-auto-feeding mode. The non-auto-feeding mode allows the bag-making operation to be continued by the bag-making and packaging unit and a film roll holding unit that is operable among plural film roll holding units.

A method of controlling an article conveyance apparatus (1) includes steps of: (A) generating, with, as learning data, information regarding an amount of charge indicating a weight value of articles that a conveyer (20) conveys to a member disposed on a downstream side, information indicating a state of the articles on the conveyer, and a control parameter for the conveyer, a learning model that estimates the control parameter to be set for conveyance of the articles having a targeted weight; (B) performing conveyance control of the articles, based on the learning model; (C) performing selective switching between a production mode involved in actual production and a non-production mode not involved in the actual production, and causing the article conveyance apparatus to operate; and (D) collecting and storing, when the article conveyance apparatus operates in the non-production mode, as the learning data, the information regarding the amount of charge actually acquired and the control parameter.
A weight checker includes a transport unit, a weighing unit, a body, and a frame. The transport unit transports products under inspection. The weighing unit determines the weights of the products under inspection on the transport unit. The body has a screen relating to the weighing performed by the weighing unit. The frame anchors the transport unit and the weighing unit. The frame has rail members that extend in a transport direction of the transport unit. The body is independent of the transport unit and the weighing unit and is mounted to the rail members such that its position in the transport direction TD can be changed.
A bag-making and packaging machine includes sealing jaws, a horizontal moving device, a vertical moving device, and a control unit. The sealing jaws perform a transverse sealing operation. The vertical moving device moves the sealing jaws in a vertical direction. The vertical moving device includes a rotating shaft, a motor, and a link mechanism. The link mechanism transmits rotational force of the rotating shaft to the sealing jaws. The control unit performs first control or second control. The first control forwardly rotates and reversely rotates the rotating shaft during a period of time from a start of the transverse sealing operation to a start of a subsequent transverse sealing operation. The second control performs one of the transverse sealing operation and the subsequent transverse sealing operation with a forward rotation of the rotating shaft and the other with a reverse rotation of the rotating shaft.

A bag manufacturing and packing machine according to the present invention is provided with a lateral sealing mechanism. The lateral sealing mechanism is arranged on both sides of a film being conveyed by a conveying unit and rotates around a pair of rotational axes to seal the film in a lateral direction. The lateral sealing mechanism is configured such that a first sealing member (S1) and a second sealing member (S2) are replaceable with respect to rotating members (R). The first sealing member (S1) is provided with a punching mechanism (57) for making a punched hole in a portion to be laterally sealed of a tubular film. The second sealing member (S2) is not provided with the punching mechanism (57). When the rotating members (R) are in predetermined positions on rotation trajectories (T) close to the tubular film, the height position of a lower end (S1a) of the first sealing member (S1) when the first sealing member (S1) is attached to the rotating member (R) and the height position of a lower end (S2a) of the second sealing member (S2) when the second sealing member (S2) is attached to the rotating member (R) are the same.
