Abstract: A device for producing a tubular pack which is filled with a product, particularly with a foodstuff, comprises a conveying device for conveying a tube filled with the product. A closing device is provided for producing tubular packs. This closing device comprises pinching elements, which can be moved toward one another and which serve to press a closing clasp together that closes the tube. According to the invention, the closing device comprises at least three pinching elements that can be displaced by a displacing element. This results in the exertion of pinching forces, which are directed in a radially inward manner, by the pinching elements onto the closing clasp.

Abstract: A device for producing a tubular pack (16) which is filled with a product, particularly with a foodstuff, comprises a conveying device for conveying a tube (10) filled with the product. A closing device (24) is provided for producing tubular packs. This closing device (24) comprises pinching elements, which can be moved toward one another and which serve to press a closing clasp (22) together that closes the tube. According to the invention, the closing device (24) comprises at least three pinching elements (30-40) that can be displaced by a displacing element (42). This results in the exertion of pinching forces, which are directed in a radially inward manner, by the pinching elements (30-40) onto the closing clasp (22).
