ABSTRACT:
A plurality of vessel holder means14are mounted around a revolving body12at an equal circumferential spacing. Each vessel holder means14includes two holders26, 26for carrying two vessels4, 4in vertical alignment. A path along which the revolving body12revolves contains an inversion interval C-D and an upright transfer interval D-B and A-C. Inversion means16which inverts the vessel holder means14about a tangential axis O1is located within the inversion interval C-D while an electron beam irradiator24is located within the upright transfer interval A-C. Vessels which are fed at a vessel feed position A and carried by the holders26are subject to the irradiation of the electron beam at an electron beam irradiation position E, then inverted, and when it reaches the electron beam irradiation position E again, the opposite surface is subject to the irradiation of the electron beam. Vessels4are inverted again and then discharged at a vessel discharge position B. Using a single electron beam irradiator24, the entire surface of the vessel4being conveyed can be sterilized by irradiation of the electron beam.
