    摘要: Apparatus for treating containers includes a handling device for the containers wherein the handling devices has a movable carrier with which the containers can be moved on a transport path, and wherein the handling devices is assigned at least one handling station, wherein the transport speed of the handling device can be controlled in such a way that the transport speed of the handling device can be synchronised with the transport speed of the transport device and/or a further transport device during transfer and/or discharge of the containers and the transport speed of the handling device can be reduced after the transfer of the containers.

    摘要: A method for format adaptation of carriages for the transportation of bottles on a linear motor system and a corresponding linear motor system are described. According thereto, container guides provided on the carriages are adapted to the body cross-section of the bottles by adjusting a guide width in an automated manner between guide jaws of the container guides which in relation to the direction of travel are the leading and trailing ones. There is then no need to replace component parts at the container guides, and the production in filling systems is optimised in terms of staff requirements, resultant production stoppages, and error sources.

    摘要: A container-handling installation and a method for conveying functional elements in a container-handling installation (1) for the purpose of handling containers is provided. The container-handling installation comprises at least two conveying elements which each have at least one functional element provided for the purpose of handling containers. A conveyance path is provided for conveying the at least two conveying elements one after the other, and independently of one another, along the conveyance path and by means of conveyance-path magnetic-force units, which are arranged along the conveyance path and at least some of which can be activated separately in order to interact with at least one magnetic-force unit of the respective conveying element A bearing unit is provided for each conveying element for the purpose of bearing the conveying element such that the at least two conveying elements are mounted on a common shaft.

    摘要: An apparatus and a method for separating glue particles from a glue aerosol are described. Accordingly, the device comprises a cyclone separator and a collection container arranged underneath for collecting glue particles running down from the cyclone separator. Due to the fact that the device further comprises a discharge line which is connected in a gas-tight manner to the cyclone separator and which projects downwards into the collection container in order to hydrostatically seal the cyclone separator at the discharge end by means of a solvent held in the collection container, separated particles can be continuously dissolved in the solvent and discharged by replacing the solvent without interruption of the cyclonic flow prevailing in the cyclone separator.

    摘要: A transport system for the transport of containers in a container treatment facility includes a transport track with at least one long stator of a linear motor and multiple transport elements for transporting one or multiple containers. The transport elements are arranged movably on the transport track and formed to be guided along the transport track through magnetic interaction with the at least one long stator. The front and back sides of the transport elements are formed to driven into one another at least in pairs and to have a minimal attainable transport spacing that is smaller than the longitudinal extension of the transport elements.

    摘要: The invention relates to a device (10) for equipping containers (12), preferably with labels (44) or prints. The device has at least one equipping device (18, 20, 22, 23) for equipping containers (12) and a planar drive system (16) with a base element (30) and at least one movement device (32). The at least one movement device (32) has a container carrier (34) for holding a container (12). The at least one movement device (32) can be moved to the at least one equipping device (18, 20, 22, 23) by means of magnetic interaction with the base element (30) in order to equip the container (12) held in the container carrier (34). The device (10) can be used very flexibly.
