Abstract (en)
A content contaminating an inner side of a cap and an outer side of a neck portion of a container caused by spill of the content during conveyance is enabled to be removed as much as possible. The present invention relates to a capping device 6 comprising: a second rotary member R2 (conveying means) that conveys a container 2 filled with a liquid content; and a capping head 11 that moves in synchronization with the container 2 being conveyed by the second rotary member R2 while holding a cap 5 above the container 2. A cap cleaning nozzle 31 that sprays a cleaning liquid onto an inner side of the cap 5 held by the capping head 11 is provided on a moving trajectory of the container 2 conveyed by the second rotary member R2, on an upstream side of an attachment position of the cap 5 by the capping head 11. The cap cleaning nozzle 31 sprays the cleaning liquid onto the inner side of the cap 5, and subsequently the capping head 11 attaches the cap 5 to the container 2.
