Abstract (en)
A filling machine equipped with a device for stopcock emptying and sterilizing, in particular in the field of liquid-state alimentary products filling, in which, inside the framework, beside the usual devices for filling the containers and moving them, a device is provided which, automatically and simultaneously, opens the stopcock ducts in order to allow steam, or another sterilizer agent, to flow through. Such a device is essentially constituted by a crown gear (11) used in order to automatically regulate the liquid level inside the containers to be filled, which crown gear is suitably shifted in the vertical direction in such a way that it gets engaged with studs (25) integral with each stopcock, thus causing the ducts of said stopcocks to open. <IMAGE>
