Abstract
The present invention relates to an apparatus for treating a plurality of articles with a gaseous or liquid medium. The apparatus includes a cylindrical chamber in which the articles (14) are arranged in an ordered array in channels (16) which are configured on one or more circular plates (13) and which have substantially the form of evolvent lines which extend from the center of the plates to the periphery thereof. The plates (13) are rotatable about a horizontal shaft or axis (25) extending concentrically with the chamber, so that the articles can be successively introduced into or removed from the channels (16). A plurality of plates can be combined to form a plate pack, which is arranged for stepwise axial movement in the chamber. The apparatus is particularly suited for washing and sterilizing stoppers and capsules or caps used for sealing bottles and other containers, and the invention also relates to the use of the apparatus for this purpose.
