Abstract
A disk-like sampling head is arranged above a linear section of a conveyor path with a continuous flow of bottles. The sampling head is rotatable about an axis oriented transverse to the conveyor path, and preferably the axis is a horizontally-oriented axis. Rotation of the sampling head is synchronized with the continuous flow of bottles. The apparatus is particularly simple and inexpensive.
