PURPOSE: To achieve the suction for a carton surely by a construction in which air is blown to the carton of the upper layer including an uppermost layer from an air nozzle in transverse direction, and in the state where air intervenes between each carton, the carton of the uppermost layer is sucked and taken out by the sucking part of a taking out and feeding means.

CONSTITUTION: Each one carton of a plurality of the cartons received in carton- receiving part 11 in superimposed state is sucked and taken out from the uppermost layer thereof by a taking out and feeding means 16 with sucking part 17, and is fed into film cutter-fitting process. When the carton is taken out by the taking out and feeding means 16, air is flown in transverse direction to the carton 3 of the upper layer including the uppermost layer from an air nozzle 18, whereby air is sent between each carton of a plurality of cartons in superimposed state. The table lifter12 of the carton-receiving part 11 on which a plurality of cartons are placed in superimposed state, regulates the positions of the cartons 3 of the uppermost layer, while it is moved up and down correspondingly to the number of the cartons 3 to be superimposed and placed so that the carton 3 of the uppermost layer is surely sucked by the sucking part 17 of the taking out and feeding means 16. Consequently, each one carton of a plurality of cartons received in superimposed state may be surely supplied to next process.
