A method for testing tightness of container includes placing a bell-shaped test head over a mouth of the container, sealing the container against the test head, accommodating at least a portion of the container in a testing chamber within the test head, increasing a pressure difference between a pressure within the testing chamber and an internal pressure of the container, identifying evidence of matter exiting the container and entering the testing chamber. Typical evidence includes emergence of filling substance into the testing chamber and/or foaming of the filling substance in the testing chamber. Identifying such evidence includes using a camera to monitor either the region of the container or the test chamber for the evidence.

A receptacle treatment-machine features a shield arranged along a region of the receptacle-treatment machine. The shield's cladding segments define a protection wall that catches receptacle shards hurled machine. These cladding segments are arranged following one another. Each segment hangs freely from an upper end thereof to form a pendulum or connects at an end thereof to the receptacle treatment machine by a working connection with an elastically deformable element. Lower ends of the cladding segments are beneath a level of treatment positions of the receptacle-treatment machine, beneath a level on which the receptacles rest on bases thereof as they move during treatment thereof, and beneath a level on which the receptacles are supported on lower regions thereof as they move during treatment thereof.

A conduit-receiving device for receiving a conduit on a packing means handling machine has conduit carriers held along a course of the conduit-receiving device. The carriers are spaced apart from one another by being latched to a wall element of the machine. Each conduit carrier has a base section adjacent to the wall element, and an upper arm section that latches to a first profile section of the wall element to hold the conduit carrier. The upper arm section projects away from the base section. The conduit carrier is held to a second profile section of the wall element by a rear of the base section.

A method of making a supporting framework for holding a covering for a container-treatment machine that includes a machine element that is at least partially covered by the covering, and in which columns and cross members are connected to one another in a centering manner at node points includes equipping a column with a connecting flange. This connecting flange is folded relative to a non-folded lug. The connecting flange centers the column relative to a cross-member.
