Abstract

A device for bottling liquids into containers with at least one filling member for filling liquids into the containers includes a covering device, which covers the filling member at least temporarily in order to prevent egress of liquid from the filling member. The covering device is both pivotable about a pre-set pivot axis (X) and is displaceable about a pre-set displacement direction (S), and has at least one driving device for producing movements of the covering device. The driving device serves to produce both the pivoting movement and the displacement movement of the covering device, and is designed in such a way that the pivoting movement and the displacement movement take place in an at least partially staggered manner time-wise with respect to each other.
