The rotating multi-station machine for inserting an under-plug and plug in vials and similar containers comprises a rotating drum (1), the periphery of which features gripping means (2) for the vials, and a series of angularly equidistant insertion devices (4) for inserting the under-plugs (5) and plugs (6) in the necks of related vials, a distributor carousel (11) for the vials (3) and said under-plugs (5), which supplies them to the rotating drum (1), feed means (13,19) for feeding the vials (3) and under-plugs (5) to the distributor carousel (11), a further distributor carousel (12) for supplying the plugs (6) to the rotating drum (1), and removal means for the plugged vials. The insertion devices (4) comprise, respectively, a gripping and insertion means (38) for the under-plug (5), featuring a swinging arm (39) that moves between a work position upon the neck of the vial and a vial-disengaged position in which it is disengaged from the neck of the vial, and by a gripping and insertion means (40) for inserting the plugs (6), able to move along its axis above the vials (3). |
