Description

technical field

[0001] The present invention relates to a device and a method for conveying containers, in particular beverage containers. Background technique

[0002] Such devices are known, for example, in the form of conveyor belts or conveyor stars. Such conveying starwheels usually have a plurality of gripper elements, which can grip containers, for example, beneath their carrier rings and convey these containers from a first handling unit to a further handling unit. However, for specific requirements in the field of beverage production industry, it is necessary to vary the pitch between the individual containers as well as the pitch on the path from one processing plant to another. For this purpose, for example, so-called pitch-change stars are used. DE 102006 023 531 discloses a device for conveying unit goods. Here, a conveying starwheel is provided, the rotatable or rotatable extension with the gripper elements for the containers being in turn mounted on a singl...
