Abstract: A handling system in a machine for processing containers, including a plurality of support plates circulating in a closed circuit, each support plate including one or more housings, each housing being able to hold a container, a working portion, in which the support plates circulate in a horizontal position, with a first member for moving the support plates along a first axial direction, a rapid return portion, with a second moving member configured to move the support plates along an opposite axial direction, the support plates circulating in the return portion in a vertical return orientation, the handling system including rotation stations for pivoting the support plates.

Abstract: A lid transport conveyor including a frame, a first pulley and a second pulley that are carried by the frame, a device for driving the first pulley in rotation, an endless conveyor belt mounted between the first pulley and the second pulley, a slide profile carried by the frame, the slide profile including a suction groove whose open side directly faces a main face of the conveyor belt, a pump capable of drawing air through the suction groove, conveyor belt including a through-orifice positioned in line with the suction groove during movement of the conveyor belt; a lid being held by suction in contact with a face of the conveyor belt that is opposite to the main face, when the orifice is directly opposite the suction groove.
