Abstract

In order to fill the interior of an insulating glass pane (1) with argon, during pressing of the insulating glass pane (1) one glass pane is held in the region of a corner (2) at a distance from the spacer frame by holding this glass pane at a distance from the spacer frame by swivelling a part (12) of the press plate (11) using suction heads (19, 20) provided on this part (12). Inserted through the gap thus formed are a probe (4) for supplying argon and a probe (5) for extracting air from the interior of the insulating glass pane. The probe (4) through which argon is blown into the interior is aligned parallel to the lower horizontal limb of the insulating glass pane (1), and the other probe (5), via which air or air/argon mixture is extracted, has an opening which points obliquely upwards, i.e. away from the other probe (4). As a result, it is possible to produce insulating glass panes (1) having a filling of the interior other than air without it being necessary to bore holes in the spacer frame, the gas exchange taking place such that argon is mixed with the air displaced from the interior only to a very limited extent. <IMAGE>
