Abstract (en)

An apparatus for filling and capping containers (3) includes a rotary carrousel (2) which is driven in step and carries the containers (3) to be filled, that are fed to the carousel by a conveying line (5), to a station (6) where the containers (3) are filled with a liquid and then to a station (7) where the filled containers (3) are capped. The filling station (6) features a mobile element (15) carrying a group of liquid nozzle means (13) which can be connected to respective containers (3). The mobile element (15) is situated over the carrousel (2) and is operated in two strokes, a working stroke in synchrony with the carrousel (2) stepped movement in which the containers (3) are filled, and a return idle stroke in direction opposite to the carrousel (2) movement. <IMAGE>
