Abstract
A container-guiding apparatus for guiding containers along an arcuate path includes a concave guide-region and a guide belt that forms a resting region for containers to laterally guide containers along the path. The guide belt, which is driven to endlessly circulate, applies feed forces to the containers to force them along the transport direction.
