This prevents in particular that the bottles 12 turn again. In particular, it should be prevented that the previously aligned by means of the alignment unit 110 ribs 13a and grooves 13b again rotate against each other and thus no positive and non-positive would be possible.
  • bottles 12 are transported in a double row current, depending on the nature and composition of the desired container, the body 10, 12, 14, 16, for example, in one, three rows, etc. are transported.
  • FIG. 12 shows an alignment unit 110 in the form of an alignment head of the apparatus 100 for grouping and joining body 12 according to the invention to containers 92a.
  • the bodies 12 are gripped and rotated in an upper region, preferably on the closure 2, by a gripper 130 of the alignment head 110, so that they assume the correct position to be pushed together in the next step and clipped together by means of ribs 13a and corresponding grooves 13b to be able to.
  • the orientation of the bottles 12 in the alignment head 110 is controlled for example by means of a detection device.
  • a detection device in particular, image-recognition systems can be used which detect the shape of the bodies 12, in particular the arrangement of the ribs 13a and grooves 13b.
  • the image recognition systems process the information and pass it on to the grippers 130, which rotate the bodies 12 until the desired positioning of ribs 13a and grooves 13b is achieved.
  • FIG. 13 represents another method for connecting inventive body dar. This is the axial assembly of two bottles according to the in FIG. 2 illustrated second embodiment 12th
  • the bottles 12 are joined by a robot in the axial direction 140 in a clocking manner.
  • a clipping of the body 12 is not required, instead, a telescoping of the corresponding ribs 13a and grooves 13b takes place.
  • This type of process is particularly advantageous in bottles that have a pronounced undercut, since in this case no effort is required to assemble.
