Abstract: A container inspection device is used to inspect containers, such as bottles or similar containers in a container filling plant. The container inspection device comprises a guide arrangement that guides characteristic information of one or more regions of a container along a first guide path to a first sensor, and along a separate, second guide path to a second sensor. The guide arrangement comprises at least two essentially identical guide structures, through which the guide paths travel. A guide element is included that is designed to guide the characteristic information to both the first guide path and the second guide path.

Abstract: A system for detecting features on a container wall includes an optical assembly comprising a camera, and an illuminating unit having light sources arranged on conductive tracks. Viewed in a vertical direction of the unit, the light sources are in vertical columns to project a strip-shaped beam onto a container-wall region. When viewed axially, the light sources are arranged on the conductive track one above the other without offset. Each column of light sources is actuated to project a light pattern on the container-wall region that can be variably adjusted as a function of surface properties of the container-wall region. The illuminating unit has first and second light source sets in corresponding adjacent vertical columns. Each light source set has one or more light sources. Adjustment is effected by concurrently switching the first and second light source sets between an on-state and an-off state.
