Abstract
In a bottle- and can-filling machine the bottles after filling are fed from a star wheel directly to a capping carrousel and cans after filling are fed from the star wheel via a feed device along a feed path to a closing machine. This feed device is a feed chain extending from the closing machine right up to the star wheel of the filling machine and lying to the side of the center of the can path at the star wheel. Normally the chain lies to the outside of the center of this path at the star wheel and has fingers engageable behind the cans.
