Abstract

PURPOSE:To measure a net quantity accurately by measuring the net quantity and the quantity of foam corresponding to the quantity of content filled in a bottle, by calculating an increase in the net quantity at the time point of settling of the foam, on the basis of a function determined beforehand, and by correcting the net quantity by adding the increase thus calculated to the measured net quantity. CONSTITUTION:Bottle detecting sensors 2-1 and 2-2, a video camera 1 and an image processing device 3 are provided. When a bottle 5 passes by the positions of the bottle detecting sensors 2-1 and 2-2 and the video camera 1, bottle detection signals and a bottle image signal are sent to the image processing device 3, the net quantity and the quantity of foam corresponding to the quantity of content filled in the bottle 5 are measured herein, an increase in the net quantity at the time point of settling at the foam 7 is calculated on the basis of a function determined beforehand, and the net quantity is corrected by adding the increase thus calculated to the measurement net quantity.
