(54) Sluicing device for use in an apparatus for cleaning of containers


(57) A sluicing device (16) for an apparatus primarily for cleaning the inner of containers is disclosed. The sluicing device (16) is provided with cleaning agents in the form of adjustable and displaceable high pressure nozzles (19) for cleaning the inner of the containers. The sluicing device (16) is moved forward by means of wheels (3) mounted on the sluicing device. Holding of the sluicing device (16) in an initial direction takes place by means of jawtongs mechanisms (2) extending behind the sluicing device in a vertical plane and which are preferably supported by wheels (13). The possibility of displacing the high pressure nozzles (19) ensures reduction of the number of nozzles used and of water consumption.
