A device for closing a filled container with a screw cap, for example, for closing support ring-less bottles with a screw cap, is described. The device includes a neck guide with at least one torsion protection element for accommodation of a neck section of the filled container in a torsion-protected manner during the closing with the screw cap, and a discharge element for discharging the closed container from the neck guide. The neck guide and the discharge element are displaceable relative to each other.

There is provided devices for supplying molded parts in, for example, a beverage filling plant. An exemplary device may include a circulating conveyor chain for conveying the molded parts, wherein the circular conveyor chain forms a helical conveying track between an intake area and a discharge area, and a buffer for buffering the molded parts, wherein the buffer is disposed at the intake area or at the discharge area. The buffer may include a buffer base area within the helical conveying track for buffering the molded part. Another exemplary device may include a circulating conveyor chain for conveying the molded parts, wherein the circular conveyor chain forms a helical conveying track between an intake area and a discharge area, and wherein the helical conveying track extends around a space which is free of machine parts. The space may be formed to allow for an assembly space or manhole through the device.

Device for supplying molded parts in a beverage filling plant

A device for buffering molded parts in a beverage filling plant, and in one embodiment, for buffering container closures in a beverage filling plant, is described. The device has an intake and an outlet, between which a buffer surface for buffering the molded parts is disposed. The buffer surface is rotatably disposed.
