ABSTRACT:
A container closing machine which includes bottle capping devices 2 that are raised and lowered, a starwheel 12 that revolves together with the capping devices and centers the containers, there is a stationary air flushing device 1 which is supplied with non-oxidizing gas and is arranged on the outside of the orbital path followed by bottles as they are held in the pockets of the starwheel. The flushing device 1 has a lateral jet opening 3 opposite of the orbital path of the bottles and at a small clearance with respect to the starwheel in which the open mouths of the bottles extend. Flow chambers conduct the gas emitted from the discharge jet of the flushing device directly past a plurality of the bottle mouths and then radially inwardly to the atmosphere.
