With appropriate design of the means for the relative movement between the bell and the container carrier, the latter can also be used to close the bell when cleaning.

  • the plate element 81 On its underside, the plate element 81 has two locking elements 82 which are radially displaceable with respect to the central axis of the plate element 81 and are biased radially outwards by a compression spring 83.
  • the locking elements 82 are stamped parts made from flat material.
  • each locking element 82 is provided with an elongated hole 84 and held in the region of this elongated hole with a screw 85 on the underside of the plate element 81.
  • the locking elements 82 are simultaneously pivotable about the screws 85.
  • On hers the radially inner end of the locking elements 82 are each provided with an eyelet 86 forming a grip surface for a finger. By gripping these eyelets 86, the locking elements 82 can be moved inwards to unlock the respective cover 80.
  • the locking elements 82 protrude with their radially outer ends over the circumferential surface of the cover element 81, so that when the cover 80 is inserted into a bell 3, the locking elements 82 engage in a recess formed in the interior of the bell 3, for example in the groove 17 or 41 of the Bells 3 with the edge areas 3a ', 3b', 3c ', 3f' and 3g '.

  • This consists essentially of a valve tappet 88 which is guided through the plate element 81 so as to be displaceable in the axial direction.
  • the valve tappet 88 is provided with a valve plate 89 which is pressed against the upper side of the plate element 81 by a valve spring 90 and thereby closes two valve openings 91 provided in the plate element 81.
  • valve tappet 88 projects beyond the underside of the cover 80 or the bell 3 closed with this cover, so that when a bottle plate, for example the bottle plate 5a, 5b, 5c, 5f or 5g, is lifted against the closed bell 3, the emptying valve 87 opens via the valve tappet 88 and thus cleaning liquid present inside the bell 3 can flow off via the valve openings 81.
  • At least one cycle of the bottle filling machine ensures that the bells 3 are completely emptied before the covers 80 are removed, which in particular also avoids the risk of accidents caused by sharp, caustic cleaning liquids.
  • the bells 3 are closed by the bottle plates 5a-5g and the associated locking means for a wide variety of procedures when filling the bottles 2, while the lid 80 is used in the cleaning to close the bells 3.

  • the lifting devices for the bottle plates 5a - 5g are designed such that all bottle plates 5a - 5g each remain in the raised position during cleaning, even when the bottle filling machine is rotating.
  • the lifting devices have the lifting devices or lifting cylinders which are normally used and which are prestressed by a compressed gas in the sense of lifting the bottle plates 5a-5g, which are each provided with a cam roller 92 and cooperate with this to lower the bottle plates 5a-5g with a control cam 93, a segment 94 is provided at the beginning of the start-up side of the control curve 93.
  • This segment can be moved from an active position, in which it is located in the movement space of the cam rollers 92 and thus forms the start of the run-up side of the cam 93, to an inactive position in which the segment 94 is arranged outside the movement path of the cam rollers 92 is.
