1. System for conveying open containers filled with liquid, comprising a conveyor device for the containers and an anti-slosh device to prevent the liquid from sloshing out of the containers as they are being transported wherein the anti-slosh device has at least one nozzle for injecting a gas under pressure into the interior of the container, the at least one nozzle being directed at a point of most likely surge formation. 2. The system according to claim 1, wherein there is a first conveyor device and a second conveyor device, and the anti-slosh device is installed in a transition area between the first and second conveyor devices. 3. The system according to claim 1, wherein the anti-slosh device acts over a certain predetermined transport distance. 4. The system according to claim 1, wherein the at least one nozzle is directed at an inside surface of the container close to and below the container opening. 5. The system according to claim 1, wherein the injection pressure is decreased from a higher pressure at the beginning to a lower pressure at the end. 6. The system according to claim 1, wherein the nozzle is a slot nozzle with a predetermined length in the transport direction. 7. The system according to claim 1, wherein the nozzle is stationary. 8. The system according to claim 1, wherein the nozzle can be carried along over a certain predetermined transport distance. 9. The system according to claim 1, wherein the conveyor device has a first circular conveyor for transporting the containers in a first transport direction and a second circular conveyor driven around a rotational axis to transport the containers in a second transport direction, and in that a transfer device is provided to transfer the containers from the first circular conveyor to the second circular conveyor, where the anti-slosh device is assigned to the transfer point, acts over a certain predetermined transport distance in the second transport direction, and has a nozzle to inject a gas into the container, the nozzle being directed at the inside wall of the container facing away from the rotational axis of the second circular conveyor. 10. Method for transporting open containers filled with liquid, comprising injecting gas under pressure onto a point of most likely surge formation in the interior of the container to prevent the liquid from sloshing out as the container is being transported, and decreasing the injection velocity from a higher flow velocity at the beginning of the injection process to a lower flow velocity at the end of the injection process. 11. The system according to claim 1, wherein the open containers comprise wide-necked containers.
