PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To detect the orientations of the top parts and the bottom parts of bottle containers and, based on the detected signals, erect, align, and convey the bottle conveyors one by one on a conveyor with the top parts surely facing upward by controlling the erecting operation of the bottle containers in an overturned one-row state. SOLUTION: A rotating turret 3 comprises: a rotating body 4 having, on the outer peripheral side at equal intervals, overturn one-row conveying means 2 for conveying hollow bottle containers 1 and receiving recesses 5 for introducing and accepting the containers one by one in an overturned state; a first container holding plate 10 disposed passing lower side of the receiving recesses starting at the receiving position to immediately before the erecting operation position; and a second container holding plate 11 disposed on the lower side of the first container holding plate starting at the erecting operation position to immediately before the erecting and conveying position. The bottle container erecting, aligning, and conveying device comprises: the rotating turret 3; a supporting rod 6 supporting the body part lower sides of the containers introduced into the receiving recesses at the erecting operation position from the overturned state to the state immediately before the erection and movable forward and backward in the longitudinal direction of the introduction of the containers; and a container orientation detection part 8 disposed immediately before the erecting operation position.
