ABSTRACT:
A fill and seal machine designed to charge liquid products into open-topped containers of predetermined configurations and dimensions and to apply closure members to such containers after the charging operation. An incrementally rotatable carrier disc disposed in communicating relation to a plurality of work stations has a plurality of circumferentially spaced dished portions that communicate with the periphery of the carrier disc, said dished portions successively receiving and transiently retaining individual ones of the containers. A lid delivery assembly for supplying the closure members to conventionally filled containers also provides the lid-sealing function. The novel capping operation is performed by the lid delivery assembly that is angularly disposed at a critical angle relative to the vertical. The filled and sealed containers are removed from the container carrying disc by a passive sweeping arm disposed in path-interruptive relation to such containers.
