成りの困難を伴なうという問題がある。2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, as a so-called auto-cuper for automatically attaching a cap to a cup, a rotary type as shown in FIG. 5 and a multi-row parallel type as shown in FIG. 6 are considered. Among them, the rotary type shown in FIG. 5 has a cap mounting device c equipped with a large rotating disk b in the middle of a linear conveyor a, and star-shaped devices are installed at the entrance and the exit of the cap mounting device c. The rotating disks (star wheels) d and e are arranged, and the cup f is moved from the star-shaped rotating disk d to the large rotating disk b.
The cap is installed during the transfer from the star-shaped rotating disk e to the original conveyor a according to the rotation of the large rotating disk b. There is a problem that adjusting the timing between the cap device and the cap device involves considerable difficulty.
