Problems solved by technology

This results in a complex and wear-prone mechanical design, since high accelerations must be used here
In these devices, the sealing cone has to be lowered very abruptly in the position where the screw caps are handed over, with the result that high accelerations and high loads of the mechanical parts occur

Embodiment Construction

[0035] Preferred embodiments will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Identical, similar or identically acting components are identified here with the same reference numerals, and a repeated description of these components is sometimes omitted in the following description to avoid redundancy.

[0036] figure 1 A sealing machine 1 for closing containers with caps is schematically shown. A bottle neck guiding mechanism 2 is provided, which is used to guide the corresponding container, such as a PET bottle, at the bottle neck. In the embodiment shown, it is accordingly a so-called "bottleneck-operated" sealer. These containers are generally accommodated in the bottle neck guide 2 at this time, that is, the neck is accommodated in the recess 20 of the bottle neck guide 2 and then guided along the orbital movement specified by the movement trajectory of the bottle neck guide 2 . The bottle neck guide 2 is here in the form of a star wheel, so that the...

Abstract

The device (1) has a closure tool (3) for applying a closure on a container. A pick wheel (5) transfers the closure to the closure tool. The pick wheel comprises a movable segment, which is movable from a driving position to a transfer position. The movable segment drives the closure in the driving position and transfers the closure to the closure tool in the transfer position. The movable segment comprises a pocket (50) for receiving the closure. The movable segment is made of flexible material.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to devices for closing containers with caps, preferably screw caps for closing beverage bottles. Background technique [0002] It is already known to seal bottles with different closure devices. On the one hand, devices are known here, which knock the cork or stopper into the mouth of the bottle. It is important in this case that the respective stopper or cork is compressed before it is actually knocked into the mouth of the bottle. A device for sealing bottles with crown corks is also known from DE 40 30 928 A1. [0003] Devices for applying crown corks are also known, wherein the crown corks are pressed tightly onto the mouths of the respective bottles. Such a crown cork applicator is known, for example, from DE 1 939 545 A. [0004] Devices are also known for applying rolled caps, in which the finish of the bottle already has an external thread, onto which each rolled cap is rolled by means of a rolling capping mach...
