Definitions
- the invention concerns an apparatus for filling a container with a liquid intended, in particular, for consumption, according to the preamble of claim 1 .
- the filling apparatus according to the invention is in particular intended and conceived for cylindrical containers that have in comparison to the diameter of the container a very large opening. This means that the diameter of the opening is within the range of magnitude of the diameter of the container.
- the apparatus according to the invention is intended for filling cans or so-called wide-neck bottles.
- the liquid For filling a container with a liquid intended, in particular, for consumption, in particular beverages, the liquid is supplied to the container e.g. by means of a supply tube.
- a supply tube For filling a container with a liquid intended, in particular, for consumption, in particular beverages, the liquid is supplied to the container e.g. by means of a supply tube.
- the problem in this context is that the liquid is exposed to ambient air or other gas with the result of undesirable gas release, gas exchange or gas introduction.
- the object of the invention is therefore to develop an apparatus for filling a container with a liquid intended, in particular, for consumption without the liquid coming into contact with an ambient gas, in particular, ambient air.
- the technical solution is characterized by the features of the characterizing portion of claim 1 .
- an effective apparatus for filling, without contact with a gas, of a container with a liquid intended, in particular, for consumption.
- the apparatus is distinguished in that the liquid during the filling process does not come into contact with ambient gas, in particular, ambient air.
- the advantage of this device resides thus in that the liquid upon filling of the container is not subject to any gas release, gas exchange or gas introduction.
- a kind of piston is inserted.
- This piston is comprised of a vertical tube through which, in the end, the liquid to be filled in is passed. The lower end of this tube has a flexible separating disk. It is attached inwardly seal-tightly to the tube.
- the flexible separating disk is contacting with the peripheral area the inner wall surface of the container to be filled.
- the separating disk divides the container into two areas, i.e., an area above the separating disk which is in communication with the ambient air as well as a lower area which is completely separated during the filling process from ambient air. This is so because this lower area is delimited by the flexible separating disk, moreover by the bottom of the container as well as, finally, by the inner wall surface of container.
- the flexible separating disk is to be understood in the most general sense. In principle, it is a flexible structure which, as described above, divides the interior of the container during the filling process into two different areas in a seal-tight way.
- the flexible separating disk when the flexible separating disk is in its lower position, no air (or essentially no air) is located between the separating disk and the bottom of the container. Subsequently, the piston is moved upwardly. At the same time, the valve is opened so that liquid can flow from the tube into the container. In this context, this liquid fills exactly the space which is created upon the upward movement of the vertical tube as well as of the flexible separating disk. Accordingly, the liquid space is hermetically sealed from the air positioned above by the flexible separating disk so that the liquid cannot come into contact with the ambient air. After completion of the filling process, the afore described piston can then be completely pulled out of the container. The opening of the container can then be closed. For example, a lid is attached to the can.
- the diameter of the flexible separating disk is larger than the inner diameter of the container. In this way, an absolutely seal-tight closure between the peripheral rim of the flexible separating disk and the inner wall surface of the container is provided.
- the separating disk after the downward stroke of the piston, also has the possibility during the subsequent upward movement during the filling process to fold over while a sealing action is ensured still.
- the flexible separating disk is resting with its peripheral rim on the inner wall surface of the container.
- the air can escape upwardly between the peripheral rim of the flexible separating disk and the inner wall surface of the container. Because of its flexibility, the separating disk can bend accordingly so that air contained in the container can laterally flow past it.
- daim 4 it is proposed according to daim 4 that upon downward movement of the tube the diameter of the flexible separating disk is smallerthan the inner diameter of the container. This means that during the downward movement of the tube the separating disk is moved in downward direction to the bottom of the container without contacting the inner wall of the container. In the bottom area, the diameter of the flexible separating disk must then be enlarged in such a way that it seal-tightly contacts the inner wall of the container for the subsequent filling process.
- the embodiment according to claim 5 proposes that the flexible separating disk is matched to the bottom profile of the container. This means that the residual air between the separating disk and the bottom of the container is reduced to a minimum.
- the flexible separating disk can be designed as a substantially flat single-layer body.
- the embodiment according to claim 7 proposes that the diameter of the flexible separating disk can be adjusted. This means that, before introduction of the separating disk into the container, this separating disk has a smaller diameter than the diameter of the opening of the container as well as the inner diameter of the container in the filling area. This has the advantage that the separating disk can be introduced without problem into the opening of the container without it contacting the circumferential rim of this opening. Primarily, however, the peripheral rim of the separating disk upon downward stroke does not contact the inner wall of the container. Only in the lowerposition, when the separating disk is thus resting on the bottom of the container, the diameter is enlarged again such that the peripheral surface of the separating disk is resting seal-tightly on the inner wall surface of the container. After completion of filling, the diameter of the separating disk can be reduced again so that the separating disk will not contact the inner circumferential edge of the opening.
- the flexible separating disk is embodied as a bellows.
- This bellows can be at least of a two-layer configuration.
- Such a bellows has the advantage that the diameter can be changed in a technically simple way.
- the bellows is e.g. is lengthened, its diameter is reduced with the advantage that it can be inserted into the opening of the container or can be pulled out of the opening of the container without it contacting the circumferential edge of the opening.
- the embodiment according to claim 9 proposes a spiral spring.
- the latter is arranged concentrically about the tube.
- the outer end of this spiral spring is secured in the outer area of the separating disk that is adjustable with regard to its diameter.
- the inner end of the spiral spring is arranged in the central area of the system and, primarily, is rotatable relative to the axis of the tube.
- this inner end of the spiral spring can be secured on a sleeve-like tube which is concentrically arranged on the tube for supplying the liquid.
- this spiral spring is used as an active element in order to adjust the flexible separating disk or the bellows in its diameter.
- this spiral spring enables to even better tension the flexible separating disk or the bellows. In this way, an improved sealing action relative to the inner wall surface of the container is provided.
- the contact pressure is distributed uniformly from the interior to the exterior in radial direction.
- the flexible separating disk is loaded pneumatically or hydraulically with overpressure or underpressure.
- a medium is supplied to the hollow space that is enclosed by the flexible separating disk for enlarging the diameter, or the medium is removed for reducing the diameter.
- a supply device or removal device for the medium preferably an intermediate space between the central tube for the liquid and an outer tube that concentrically surrounds this tube is used. This intermediate space opens in a seal-tight way into the afore described hollow space.
- the embodiment according to claim 11 proposes a valve of a special design. It is embodied in the form of a valve plate which is arranged at a lower end of a valve rod. This valve rod extends through the tube. The valve plate can be moved in order to open the opening, depending on the configuration, either in downward or upward direction, depending on where the correlated contact flange of the tube is positioned.
- a float member can be provided as a valve which is disposed at the lower end of the tube.
- venting opening in the area of the lower opening of the tube at least one openable as well as closable venting opening can be provided.
- This venting opening is opened when after filling of the container the filling apparatus is pulled out of the container in upward direction. By opening the venting opening, an underpressure cannot be produced.
- the venting opening can be open in order to accelerate in this way the escape of the air that is contained in the container. In any case, the venting opening is closed when liquid is filled into the container.

- a valve 4 is provided.
- the latter is comprised of a valve rod that is coaxial to the tube 2 and has a valve plate at its lower end.
- the tube 2 with its flexible separating disk 3 is moved vertically in downward direction.
- the separating disk 3 bends upwardly in the peripheral area as a result of the smaller opening diameter of the container 1 wherein between the peripheral rim of the separating disk 3 and the inner wall surface of the container 1 a sealing action is realized ( FIG. 2 a ).
- the tube 2 with its separating disk 3 is moved farther downward ( FIG. 2 b ) until it meets the bottom ( FIG. 2 c ).
- the air contained in the intermediate space between the separating disk 3 and the bottom of the container 1 flows out laterally between the peripheral rim of the separating disk 3 and the inner wall surface of the container 1 .
- FIGS. 3 a and 3 b differs from the preceding embodiment in that the flexible separating disk 3 has such a profile that it is matched to the bottom profile shape of the container 1 . Otherwise, the process sequence is identical.
- FIGS. 4 a and 4 b differs from the embodiment of FIG. 1 in that here the valve 4 is not moved for opening with its valve plate in the downward but instead moved in the upward direction for opening.

- FIGS. 9 a to 9 c shows an alternative embodiment of the valve. It is formed by a float member. It floats on the liquid to be filled in. Depending on the filling level, this float member is seal-tightly resting on the lower circumferential flange ( FIG. 9 a ) or it is seal-tightly forced by the buoyance against the upper annular flange ( FIG. 9 c ). The central position of the float member is illustrated in FIG. 9 b.
- FIG. 10 differs from the preceding embodiments in regard to the configuration of the separating disk 3 .
- the separating disk is a bellows.
- the latter is substantially of an annular configuration and is located on a rigid disk which is arranged on the lower end of the tube 2 .
- the annular or hose-type bellows is arranged on this peripheral rim of the rigid disk.
- the initial position is illustrated in FIG. 11 a .
- the tube 2 with its separating disk 3 in the form of a bellows is located above the opening of the container 1 .
- the bellows is in its contracted position, i.e., has its minimal diameter.
- the tube 2 with the bellows is moved in downward direction.
- the diameter of the bellows in this context is such that it is smaller than the opening diameter of the container 1 . Therefore, there is no contact taking place ( FIG. 11 b ).
- the filling apparatus is moved farther downwardly ( FIGS. 11 c to 11 e ) until the separating disk 3 in the form of the bellows contacts the bottom of the container 1 ( FIG. 11 f ). This is the starting position for the actual filling process.
- the bellows is expanded so that it contacts seal-tightly the inner wall surface of the container 1 ( FIGS. 11 g and 11 h ).
- the tube 2 is moved upwardly.
- the valve 4 that has been closed up to this point is now opened ( 11 i ).
- the liquid flows through the tube 2 in downward direction and exits from the tube opening.

- FIGS. 12 a and 12 b show a modified embodiment variant of the embodiment of FIG. 10 .
- the difference resides in that here the valve plate of the valve 4 closes in upward direction and is moved upwardly for opening.
- FIGS. 13 a to 13 c shows again the already described float member as a valve.
- FIGS. 14 a to 14 e The embodiment as illustrated in FIGS. 14 a to 14 e is based on the embodiment of the flexible separating disk 3 as a bellows as has been illustrated in the embodiment of FIG. 10 as well as FIGS. 11 a to 11 p .
- This bellows is substantially of an annular configuration and is located on a rigid disk which is arranged at the lower end of the tube 2 . On this peripheral rim of the rigid disk, the annular or hose-shaped bellows is then arranged.
- a sleeve 6 that is coaxial to the tube 2 the bellows can be expanded or reduced with regard to the diameter. This is achieved in that between the afore described coaxial sleeve 6 and the bellows a spiral spring 7 is arranged as is illustrated in principle in FIG. 14 e.
- the initial position is illustrated in FIG. 14 a .
- the tube 2 with its separating disk 3 in the form of a bellows is located above the opening of the container 1 .
- the bellows is in its retracted position, i.e., has its minimal diameter. This has been achieved in that the inner end of the spiral spring by means of the sleeve 6 has been moved to the right about the center and the outer end in this context is blocked from moving on the circumference (in FIG. 14 e the lower illustration of the spiral spring 7 ).
- the tube 2 with the bellows is moved in downward direction.
- the diameter of the bellows is smaller than the opening diameter of the container 1 . Therefore, no contact takes place ( FIG. 14 b ).
