Device for holding and vacuum-sealing a container having an opening

Abstract

A device for holding and vacuum-sealing a container as used in particular in the internal and/or external coating of containers. The device holds and vacuum-seals at least one container and has a sealing device for sealing the pouring opening in a defined end state also to comprise a holder with an introduction region, into which the wall region, which adjoins the pouring opening, together with the pouring opening, can be at least partially introduced, and a cage, which interacts with the holder and holds at least one clamping element in such a manner that, when force is applied to the cage in the direction in which the container is introduced into the defined end state, the clamping element can be guided out of a position in which it substantially releases the introduction region into a position in which it projects into the introduction region.
