Abstract (en)

A device for positioning a capsule on the neck of a bottle, comprising:a cup-like element (2), which has a longitudinal axis (X) and is provided with a cavity (21), conformed to house a capsule (C), and a bottom (22);a suction means, connected to the cup-like element (2) for creating a depression in the cavity (21);a main body (3), associated with the cup (2), and connected to a motor means, arranged to rotate the main body (3) about an axis of oscillation (Y), perpendicular to the longitudinal axis (X), and to translate the main body (3) on a perpendicular plane to the axis of oscillation (Y).The cup-like element (2) is connected to a stem (4), concentric to the longitudinal axis (X), which has an internal conduit (41), placed in communication with the cavity (21) of the cup-like element (2), at least a first opening (42) and a second opening (43).The stem (4) is sealingly inserted in a seat (31) of the main body (3), rotatably about the longitudinal axis (X).The seat (31) has a toroidal cavity (32), placed in communication with the suction means and with the second opening (43) of the stem (4).The stem (4) is connected to a rotor (5) for rotation about the longitudinal axis (X).
