Abstract: An apparatus for guiding containers conveyed by a star wheel in a star wheel conveyor, for example for guiding beverage containers in a star wheel conveyor in a beverage filling plant, includes at least two adjustment parts arranged spaced apart from one another in a circumferential direction relative to a central axis, each displaceable in the radial direction relative to the central axis, and a control segment displaceable in the circumferential direction, which is coupled to the adjustment parts such that displacement of the control segment in the circumferential direction causes a displacement of the adjustment parts in the radial direction, wherein a guide rail segment is arranged at the radially inner end of each adjustment part, and wherein the guide rail segments together form a segmented guide rail for providing an outer guide track for the containers to be conveyed.

Abstract: A device for holding a container in a container treatment device, for example for holding a beverage container in a neck portion or in a trunk portion, includes two gripping arms which are pivotable relative to one another in a pivoting plane and which in each case have a holding portion for holding the container to be held, and a lifting rod which is coupled to the gripping arms such that the holding portions are pivotable relative to one another by a displacement of the lifting rod perpendicular to the pivoting plane of the gripping arms. A container treatment device, provided with such a device, is also described.
