Abstract
A device for treating at least one container, for example a beverage filling system for filling and/or closing a container is described. The device includes a treatment carousel rotating about an axis of rotation with at least one treatment unit, arranged in the peripheral region of the treatment carousel, for treating the container that is to be treated, and a container holder arranged on the treatment carousel and assigned to the treatment unit, for holding the container during treatment with the treatment unit. A container transfer receptacle which is assigned to the container holder and is radially displaceable with respect to the axis of rotation is provided for receiving the container to be treated from an upstream treatment carousel and/or for transferring the now treated container to a downstream treatment carousel.
