Abstract (en)

An aseptic packaging machine 1 includes a chain conveyor conveying cartons along a path P in an aseptic chamber 6 including an advance leg and a return leg each extending along the machine 1. Ultra-violet germicidal lamps 8 extend over at least a major portion of the advance leg. A septic liquid is fed into the cartons C by a filling device 9 comprised of, in turn, an expansion chamber, a non-return inlet valve, a reciprocatory bellows and a non-return outlet valve. After filling, the cartons are top-heated and sealed by a top heating device 10 and a top-sealing device 11. The only non-aseptic matter deliberately introduced into the chamber 6 is the cartons C. The chamber 6 is cleaned internally by cleaning fluid from spray nozzles. The carton entry to and exit from the chamber 6 have aseptic air curtains.
