APPARATUS FOR TRANSPORTING CONTAINERS HAVING A MAGNETIC DRIVE
First Claim
1. An Apparatus for transporting containers, having a transport path and at least one transport element which is arranged such as to be movable relative to this transport path, wherein this transport element can be driven at least partially by a magnetic force, wherein the transport path has a plurality of magnetic elements and at least one magnetizable element is also arranged on the transport element, and wherein a movement of the transport element relative to the transport path can be achieved by actuating the magnetic elements of the transport path, whereinan electrically operated working element, which can be supplied inductive with electrical energy, is arranged on the transport element.
