In a chute-type cap cleaning and sterilizing device, the accumulated pressure acting on a synthetic resin cap in a chute is reduced to prevent deformation of the cap, and hot water or aseptic water jetted upstream is heated downstream In order to reduce the impact on sterilized water and sterilized water, the sterilization can be performed efficiently. A chute (5) has ascending chute portions (7, 9), and a hot water pipe having a plurality of injection nozzles for injecting hot water as a sterilizing cleaning medium is arranged along the ascending chute portion (9). Hot water is sprayed onto the cap supplied to the gradient chute, and the cap 35 is given thrust to raise the upward gradient chute by the injection pressure of the hot water, and the cap is sterilized and cleaned with the sterilization cleaning medium and conveyed.
