BAG LOADING DEVICE

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To always favorably perform the opening of a bag and the transferring of the bag to a following stage by adjusting a hanging amount of the bottom section having a gusset in response to a laminated amount of the bag. SOLUTION: This loading device 10 has a pedestal 22 on which the bag 14 is loaded under a state wherein the bottom section 14a having the gusset is not supported. On the pedestal 22, an actuating member 30 which can slide in the longitudinal direction under a loading plate 28 on which the bag 14 is loaded is arranged. The pedestal 22 is detachably arranged on a vertically movable base 54 wherein a driving means 78 is arranged. By moving the actuating member 30 backward by the driving means 78, the rear end section of the actuating member 30 extends backward from the rear end of the loading plate 28. Thus, the bottom section 14a of the bag 14, which vertically hangs from the rear end edge of the loading plate 28, is lifted.
