Problems solved by technology

However, the ejector pin can no longer reach the caps left in the capping head by mistake, because the ejector pin sinks into the cap interior without touching the cap face
During the next reception and tightening, the cap which has not been ejected will be crushed, wherein the force is so great that parts of the capping equipment (such as rollers, gears, etc.) can be cracked or bent, and The machine must be serviced
This resulted in production interruptions, replacement part costs and repair costs

Embodiment Construction

[0014] figure 1 The capping machine 1 is shown in an example illustration. The capping machine 1 corresponds to the capping machine according to EP 1834923, except for the details described below which are provided according to the invention, so that reference is made to this publication for further details. The capping machine 1 is used to screw a cap in the form of a cap K on a beverage bottle F made of plastic. However, the invention is also suitable for screwing top caps or snap caps onto bottles or glasses in a capping machine. The cover usually has an upper cover surface and a cylindrical screw-on flange protruding from this cover surface and provided with a thread on the inside or with a snap-on cover unit.

[0015] The capping machine 1 comprises a stationary base 2 in which a hollow shaft 4 with a vertical axis of rotation D is supported rotatably in the direction of the arrow A by means of a flange bearing 3 . A ring gear 5 is fastened to the lower end of the holl...

Abstract

An apparatus (30) for closing a container (F) with a closure (K) is described, the apparatus having a screw closer (1) which comprises at least one screw head (11) for the screwing on of the closure (K). The screw head (11) revolves around an axis (D) over a controlled path (A) and is guided in a vertical screwing movement (B) relative to the container (F). The apparatus (30) contains respective supply apparatuses (31, 32) for the closures (K) and the containers (F). In order, in a structurally simple manner, to prevent the apparatus (30) from being obstructed or damaged by closures (K) entered into the screw head (11) in a misaligned manner, it is proposed to arrange a device (34) in the region of the screw closer (1) to determine closures (K) which have been supplied in a misaligned manner.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a device for closing containers with screw caps of the type stated in the preamble of claim 1 . Background technique [0002] Such a device is known for example from EP 1834923 . This known device has a capping machine with a plurality of capping heads driven in rotation about a vertical axis and a carrier for a plurality of containers driven in synchronous rotation. The capping heads are designed in such a way that they come into contact with a supply device for screw caps in the region of their encircling rail and receive the caps from this supply device. The holders for the containers are designed in such a way that they receive the uncapped containers on a predetermined area of ​​their encircling rail and deliver the closed containers again. For capping, the container and the capping head carry out a relative movement relative to each other in the vertical direction, wherein the capping head is preferably guided downwards...
