Abstract

A drink dispensing syphon package is disclosed having a syphon head (304) configured to fit over neck (350) of a bottle (352) in sealing relationship. A lever (340) is mounted to exterior surface (360) of body (362) by breakaway filaments and a spring strip. In use, the user pulls upward on lever (340) to rupture the filaments. The strip (230) pivots an end of lever (340) through opening (342) in body (362) and through actuating rod (348). Actuating rod (348) is attached to interior surface of the body (362) by a resilient diaphragm. The invention relates to apparatus for and a process of filling such a container which uses a permanent syphon filling head for cooperation with a valve in the necked opening of the container when the container is supported in a pivotable cradle. A source of liquid under pressure for supply to the container is connected to the filling head as is means for removing gas from within the container.
