  • the liquid outlet part from the fillin a seal member mounted on the Primary Examiner-Houston S. Bell, Jr. Assistant ExaminerFrederick R. Schmidt Attorney,
  • the present invention is directed to a counter pressure filling machine and, more particularly, it concerns such a machine which utilizes a filling element without a filling tube and includes a gas return pipe axially displaceable relative'to the filling element.
  • the invention is based on known filling elements without filling tubes for counter pressure filling machines which use a liquid valve that opens automatically when the pressure between the filling tank and the bottle to be filled is equalized.
  • the bottle or other vessel to be filled is secured under a filling element and, initially, after the gas valve is opened, the vessel is brought to a pressure equal to that of the tank in the filling machine.
  • the liquid valve which operates independently of the gas valve, is opened by spring force and the liquid flows into the vessel.
  • the gas contained with the vessel flows back into the gas chamber or space in the filling machine through the gas pipe in exchange with the liquid being filled.
  • the liquid flows up through the gas pipe to a height equal to the liquid level in the filling machine tank.
  • the gas valve is closed and the liquid remaining in the return gas pipe below the gas valve flows into the vessel.
  • Another object of the present invention is to regulate the filling operation directly by means of the gas return pipe.
  • Another object of the invention is to discharge the liquid remaining in the return gas pipe without the requirement for any additional controlling operations.
  • an axially displaceable gas return pipe is combined with a filling element without a filling tube, such as mentioned above, and a cylinder of a variable volume is connected to the end of the return gas pipe within the gas space of the liquid-gas chamber of the filling machine.
  • the cylinder acts as a differential member for affording the axial displacement of the return gas pipe relative to the vessel to be filled.
  • the cylinder is provided with channels, closable by valve means, which affords the flowof gas from the gas space into the cylinder and then into the return gas pipe.
  • the end of the return gas pipe which extends into the vessel is provided with a seal member which closes the liquid outlet part fromthe filling element when the return gas pipe is in its upwardly displaced position.
  • Another feature of the invention is the placement of a member having a variable volume at the end of the return gas pipe located within the gas space in the liquid-gas-chamber.
  • the member or cylinder connected to the return gas pipe is arranged so that it can be sealed off from the pressure existing within the gas space. Further, the member is arranged so that the pressure existing in the gas 'spac'e exerts a displacing force against the member.
  • the filling element embodying the present invention has not only the great advantage of a simple design, but is has the further important advantage in permitting the discharge of the return gas 'pipe while the vessel being filled is still pressurized. This discharge operation is attained by the valve action incorporated into the filling element. In addition, outlet elements which in the past led to an over running of the filling liquid, are avoided by the present invention.
  • variablevolume cylinder as the member associated with the end of the gas return pipe within the gas space.
  • the cylinder is associated with the upper wall of the liquid-gas chamber and its axial displacement toward the upper wall provides the variability in its volume.
  • channels are provided through the cylinder communicating with the gas space and a packing washer is provided on the return gas pipe for effecting the closure of the channel for preventing the pressure within the gas space from acting within the cylinder.
  • the cylinder within the gas space is guided on a stationary piston secured to and depending downwardly from the upper wall of the liquid-gas chamber.
  • a compressible packing member is provided on the piston which provides the sealing action with the return gas pipe and, when the return gas pipe is displaced downwardly, the piston affords communication between the cylinder at the upper end of the pipe and the gas space.
  • another distinguishing feature of the present invention is the provision of a supporting element intermediate the ends of the return gas pipe which limits the lower position to which the return gas pipe can be displaced. The supporting, element can be movably secured on the return gas pipe for adjusting the lowermost position of its outlet.

When the filling element is in the open condition the supporting element 16 rests on the upper end of the valve housing 3, note FIG. 2. Accordingly, the location of the supporting element 16 on the return gas pipe 4 determines the lowermost position of the return gas pipe outlet 32.
  • the liquid-gas chamber is divided into a lower liquid space and an upper gas space by means of the liquid level 17.
  • a cylinder 18 acting as a differential volume member is connected to the upper end of the return gas pipe 4. At its upper end, the

  • the channels 21 communicating with the interior of the cylinder are closed by the packing 22 which is held in the upper position by the arms 23 of the control device which biases the sleeve 24 in the upward direction so that it is not possible for the gas to flow from the gas space into the cylinder.
  • the interior of the cylinder In this closed condition of the filling element, the interior of the cylinder is exposed to atmospheric pressure.
  • the pressurized gas within the chamber exercises a displacing force against the cylinder and maintains him its upper position. Only after pressure equalization has been attained, that is, when the pressure within the interior of the cylinder is equal to that in the gas space in the chamber, is it possible for the return gas pipe 4 to move along with the cylinder 18 into the lower position, as indicated in FIG. 2.-
  • An empty vessel 11, open at its top, is fed by a conveyor, not shown, to a preferably stationary tray 29 and it is centered on the tray. Subsequently, the centering tulip 9 is lowered so that its packing 10 contacts the upper end of the vessel.
