APPARATUS FOR WASHING AND FILLING CONTAINERS FOR LIQUIDS

摘要

A combined washing and filling machine for beer kegs has a conveyor for conveying a succession of kegs past spaced washing and racking stations. A retractable stop is provided at each station to hold a keg in position at the station and a reject control device may prevent the stop at racking station acting as a stop when a keg is found to be unsuitable for filling. Detectors are provided on the downstream side of each station to detect a keg leaving each station.
