- the nozzle head 2a When fully inserted into the container suction cup 1 is also the nozzle head 2a in the container interior.
- the nozzle head 2a is mounted biaxially and has for this purpose two mutually orthogonal axes of rotation. As a result, the new cleaning water sprayed in the form of water jets during the cleaning operation by the rotating nozzle head 2a can reach the entire inner surface of the container to be cleaned.

- the injector 5 forms the suction drive of the container Innerutzs BIR1.
- a jet nozzle 5b injector nozzle

- the support 7 is attached to the pressure line in an area where it branches off from the pressure line branch 19 to the jet nozzle 5b.
- the support 7 extends substantially parallel to the connecting pipe 4 and has at its end a foot 7a, which corresponds to the curvature of the outer surface of a wine barrel. Together with the suction head 1a at the end of the suction foot 1 and the bunghole pin 3, this support 7 forms with its foot 7a a stable three-point support of the container interior cleaner BRI1 on the container to be cleaned and in particular on a wine barrel.
- the connecting line 10 forms part of the pressure line and constitutes a bypass line 8, 9, 10, 12, which as a parallel branch bypasses a section of the mechanical drive train 13a, 13b which extends axially inside the connecting tube 4.
- This bypass line 8 containing the connecting line 8, 9, 10, 12 opens out of the downstream end region of the water drive 6 out.
- the bypass line then branches on the one hand into a first leg, which opens into the pressure line leading to the nozzle head 2 inside the connecting pipe 4, and on the other hand into a second leg, leading into the Saugfuss 1 suction line section in the interior of the connecting pipe 4th empties.

- the container internal cleaner BIR2 differs from the container internal cleaner BIR1 essentially in two points.
- the first significant difference is that the squeegee 1 * of the container interior cleaner BIR2 has a sprung, angled squeegee section 1b.
- the second major difference is that the container internal cleaner BIR2 no handle tube piece 8 and no handle 9 (see Fig. 1 ) contains. Instead, there is the angled arranged water drive 6.

- the sprung bendable suction line section 1 b is located between the arranged at the end of the Saugfusses 1 * suction head 1 a and arranged at the end of the pressure line nozzle head 2a.
- the angle gear 11 has two mutually angled shafts 11 a, 11 b, of which one 11 a with the downstream output shaft of the water drive 6 is rotatably connected and the other 11 b with the section 13 a of the mechanical drive train is rotatably connected, which extends in the interior of the connecting pipe 4 in the axial direction to the nozzle head 2.
- the angled mechanical drive train thus formed transmits the rotational movement generated in the water drive 6 from the water drive 6 to the nozzle head 2a.
- nozzle head assembly 2 Since the nozzle head assembly 2, the bung pin assembly 3, the connection tube assembly 4, the injector assembly 5, the water drive assembly 6, the support assembly 7, and the connection lead assembly 10 are both in the straight inner container cleaner BIR1 as well as in the angled container interior cleaner BIR2 are identical, it is unnecessary at this point that already on the basis of Fig. 1A . 1B and 1C given description of these assemblies.
