- Such containers represent a very common variant of sales units for beverage containers or bottles made of PET plastic.
- the fastest possible compilation of such containers without interruption of individual process steps is desirable.
- a method and a device by means of which new rolls can be delivered and used rolls can be exchanged within a packaging machine are known, for example, from DE 40 40 545 A1.
- This known device has a plurality of supply rolls with strip material, which are arranged side by side. The core of the rollers is placed in each case on a common pin. A beginning of the strip material is previously connected to a roller, which pulls the strip material from the respective roll and leads away from the device in the downward direction. In order to operate this known device and to unwind the material from the roll, the role must be placed with its core in conformity with the direction of rotation on the pin.
- Strip material must descend from above in the direction of the rolls. If the roller with opposite direction of rotation placed on the pin, so could
- Strip material is difficult or impossible to be removed from the roll, from which

- Suction instrument 55 of the embodiment of FIG. 14 is formed as a suction rod 56 and has a plurality of suction parts 72, by means of which a respective
- the functional attachments 70 corresponding to the suction instrument 55 from the exemplary embodiment of FIGS. 11 to 13 are also provided for the suction instrument 55 according to FIG. 14.
- the functional attachments 70 are in operative connection with one valve in each case, so that when the respective functional attachments 70 are mechanically connected to the suction instrument 55, a negative pressure can be released via the corresponding valve. If a function attachment 70 is removed from the suction instrument 55, the associated valve closes. A negative pressure can then no longer be released via the respective suction section 72 until the corresponding function attachment 70 is again connected to the suction instrument 55.
- a flange portion 80 is shown.
- the suction instrument 55 or the suction rod 56 can be connected to the carriage 74 (see FIG. 11) via this flange section 80.
- Embodiment of Fig. 14 has a circular cross-section.
- FIG. 15 shows a longitudinal section through the suction instrument 55 according to FIG. 14.
- the suction instrument 55 or the suction rod 56 has a line system 82, with which the suction sections 72 are connected in series.
- the functional attachments 70 each close flush or at least approximately flush with a
- Line system 82 is closed at its free end to prevent any vacuum escape.
- throttles can also be used which, while the functional attachments have been removed, have the Normally not completely shut off underpressure, but reduce the negative pressure so that only a small amount of air is sucked in there.
