- each KEG 1 resting on a container receptacle 16 moves with the rotor 15 to a further treatment position 20 or from the receiving position 25 to the first treatment position 20 and after filling from the last treatment position 20 to the dispensing position 26 is moved.
- the filled KEGs 1 are transferred in an overhead position to the feed dog 24 and discharged via this.
- the turning of the KEGs 1 in their normal position takes place outside the device 6, for example at a turning device or with a
- Abgabeposition 26 provided means for transferring the filled from the container receptacles 16 to the feed dog 24 as a turning device, so that the filled KEGs then turned, i. with their KEG fitting 5 lying on top of the conveyor 24 wegge felicitt and thereby also the possibility exists to provide the KEGs 1 already on the conveyor 24 with the respective KEG fitting 5 covering caps.
- the KEG treatment machine 6 is characterized by an extremely compact
- the individual treatment positions 20 are adaptable to the cycle and to the containers or KEGs 1 to be driven as required.
- the KEG treatment machine 6 contains all components necessary for its function in a compact
- the number of container receptacles 16 may be greater than ten, e.g. be twelve, which increases the number of treatment positions 20 to ten while maintaining the compact design, so as to achieve an even higher performance (number of treated containers or KEGs per unit time) for the KEG treatment device.
- the machine frame 7 is made of a plurality of frame members 9, 10 and trusses 11 and 12 of profiles made of steel. Of course, another design of the machine frame is possible, for example, from sheet metal and / or using plastic parts and / or profiles.
- the treatment heads 21 are not provided movably and that for coupling and uncoupling the KEGs or their fittings 5, the container receptacles 16 are raised and lowered controlled. In principle, this relative movement between the treatment heads and the container receptacles can also take place in other ways, for example by controlled raising or lowering of the treatment heads.
