Abstract

Bei einem Verschließer (V) für Behälter (B) verschiedenster Art, mit einem durch einen Verschließer-Antriebsmotor (M) zumindest zum Transport der Behälter an einem Unterteil (U) angeordneten, antreibbaren Behälterträger (7), einem zumindest ein Verschließerelement (E) tragenden, ebenfalls vom Verschließer-Antriebsmotor (M) drehantreibbaren Oberteil (O), der relativ zum Unterteil (U) zumindest zur Anpassung an unterschiedliche Behälterhöhen höhenverstellbar ist, wird der Oberteil (O) mittels des Verschließer-Antriebsmotors (M) höhenverstellt, wobei ein Kupplungssystem (K) vorgesehen ist, das wahlweise zwischen einer Antriebsfunktion und einer Oberteil-Höhenverstellfunktion schaltbar ist.

Figure imgaf001
In a capper (V) for containers (B) of various types, with a by a capper drive motor (M) at least for transporting the container to a lower part (U) arranged, drivable container carrier (7), at least one capper element (E) carrying, also from the capper drive motor (M) rotatably driven upper part (O), which is height adjustable relative to the lower part (U) at least for adaptation to different container heights, the upper part (O) by means of the capper drive motor (M) is height-adjusted, wherein a Coupling system (K) is provided, which is selectively switchable between a drive function and a top height adjustment function.
