Abstract

Disclosed is a method of packing an article which comprises the steps of: stretching and gripping a packing film; sending an article onto a reception block having a turning belt for mounting the article thereon, under the packing film; moving up the article together with the reception block so as to urge the article against the packing film; moving thereafter the reception block and a tuck block situated in an article send-in side of the reception block, to an article send-out side of the same, thereby shifting the article from the reception block to the tuck block, the packing film being put in a state where one end portion of the packing film is extended down through a gap between the reception block and the tuck block and gripped thereat, in shifting the article; moving a mounting portion of the belt of the reception block in a direction opposite to the direction of movement of the reception block and the tuck block, in shifting the article; and tucking-in the one end portion of the packing film under the article owing to the movement of the mounting portion.
