Be it known that I, CHARLES BAsriAN,
i a citizen of the United States, residing at Chicago, in the county of Cook andy State of Illinois, have invented new :ind useful Improvements in Bottle-Filling Machines,
of which the following is a specification. .y
` The object of this invention is to readily adapt a bottle filling machine to fill different sizes ofbottles, such as quarts, pints and splits. Y ,f i y I With this object in view'tlie invention providing a supplearrauged in placeoii the filling valve mecha nism to udaptthe machine for filling bottles of a smallerv size. l
In the accompanyingri drawings Figure` 1 illustrates a .Fil ing valve mechanism enibodyin'g my invention. Fig. 2 is a sectional view on the line 2-2 of Fig. 1. Fi 3 is a.
detail view of the supplemental hea Reerrin to the drawings 5 designates the body o the filling valve mechanism and the cross it is provided ivith acentral bore 6 into whichtlie filling tube I is secured. The` body may be`secured into the' bottom of a tanlr or head of the filling machine (not shown) in any suitable manner and it is provided with a seat `8 at the upper end of the' bore 6 to receive a liquidva ve 9 which is carried by a cross piece 10. Rods 11 are slidably arranged in the body `und carry ieee. Springs 12 are held in place onv t e rods below theA body by adinstable nuts 13 or other vsuitable devices `and the tension of the springs is exertedjio normally hold the liquid valve against its seat. A head 14 is slidablyarranged on the filling tubfi and onthe lower endsof the rods 11.. This head is providedwith a seat 15 on its lower face for the lmouth of the bottle and it has an enlarged bore 16 Whichcom- A municates by a lateral passage 17 with a chamber 18. Anali' tube 19 is screwed into avnipplc 20 .which inturn is screwed into the upper end of the chamber 18, and the upper end of this air tube (projects through the body of the valve :in carries an air valve 21 which has :i seat 22 on said body. This air valve is iuclosed within an elongated tubular housing 23 which is secured in upright position to the body'over the air valve and a4 spring 24 inclosed within this housing constantly bearson the air valve ff Specication of Letters Patent.

movable parts to their normal position. An
extension of the housing in the form of a tube 25 carries the air discharge above the level of the liquid in the tank. The valve mechanism :is tliusdescribed may be constructed and arranged and adapted for filling quart bottles and in order 'to change rapidly to fill pints I provide a supplemental head 14 which has a seat 15 to accommodate the mouth of the bottle.
The supple-V mental head has a bore 1G.to receive the illing tiilie and this bore may be enlarged like the bore 16 in the head v14: or grooves 26 may :he provided 'to permit free passage of air The supbetween the tank and the bottle. pleinental head is adapted to be secured to the main head 14 by spring clamping arms 27 which are fastened to the head and are provided with shoulders 28 to engage the top of the main head. Theupper ends 29 of these arms, above the shoulders; are flared outwardly so that. the arms canrbe readily7 the removal of the supplemental head.
In spplyingr the supplemental head to the valve mechanism it is pushed up on the flling tube until the outwardly flared ends of the arms engage the bottom of the main head and Lhenniore pressure being appliedl the springr arms are spread sufiiciently to enable t e supplemental head to be carriedrup untilits upper rounded end 14 engages the seat 15 and the shoulders 28 engage the to of the main head. The supplemental hea can be readily and quickly arranged in place and removed, asrequired, and it inmediately kdi:en, raed from the main head to permit i adliptsthe machine for filling bottles of a` diti'erent size. For filling splits a longer supplemental head would be provided and in this way a sin le machinemay be quickly adapted tofill liottles of many different heights.
The vulve mechanism which is selected to i avoid foaming. The invention may be als0- employed with other valve mechanisms suoli, `for example, as that described and `claimed' in Patent No. 768962 dated Aug.
ao,A i904 in which uw new" of air from the bottle during the filling operation is regu-` lated and controlled vto prevent the beer from foaming. The invention could also be used with a'valve mechanism of the kindv described in said patent and having the filling tube provided with a bushing as described in my application No. 313,146., filed concurrent-ly herewith. 'The machine in which these valve mechanisms are used and for which my resent invention is adapted comprises lifting mechanism of suitable character for carrying the bottle up on the filling tube andagainst the head, or the sup-v plemental head, and'tlien carrying the bottle and head up to first open the air Valve 21 and lpermit an equalization of y:fessure in the bottle and in the tank or hea of the filling machine until finally the head engages kthe nuls 13 and lifts the rods 11 and cross piece 10 to unseat the liquid valve 9. The pressure of the bottle a ainst the supplemental head will not on y seal the bottle but will also force the supplemental head tightly against the seat 15 on the main head and make an effective seal there, althou h the spring arms may be constructed to ho d the supplemental head `so tightly against; the
