Abstract
Pouches are advanced broadwise by carriers each having two laterally spaced clamps for gripping the side margins of the pouch. The clamps are supported by pivoted linkages which enable the clamps to be moved laterally toward and away from one another for the purpose of opening and closing the mouth of the pouch as the pouch is advanced through the filling and top sealing stations of a packaging machine.
