Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2022258596A1] The invention relates to a forming group (1, 2) for a forming device (10) for grouping containers (4) moving in a transport direction (T). The forming group (1, 2) comprises at least two identical forming elements (5) which are arranged adjacently to each other along a main axis (HA). Each forming element (5) has at least one slide (6) and at least one respective pressing or formatting part (7) releasably secured to the slide (6). The invention is characterized in particular in that at least one coupling device (8) is provided for coupling the at least two adjacent forming elements (5), wherein the adjacent forming elements (5) of the forming group (1, 2) are connected together in a releasable and articulated manner via the coupling device (8). The coupling device (8) is designed such that the connection of the forming elements (5) via the coupling device (8) can be released and restored without tools.
