Abstract (en)

An apparatus for filling a plurality of kinds of containers C having different heights with a liquid in specified amounts corresponding to the respective different heights of the containers C has a filling nozzle 31 disposed above a path of transport formed by a container conveyor 11, and a lifter 32 for moving the container C to be filled upward from the conveyor 11 and downward over a stroke length corresponding to the height of the container C. The lifter 32 comprises a container pushing-up vertical lift rod 42 disposed below the filling nozzle 31 and having a container support 41 at its upper end, a container depressing lift rod 44 extending beside the vertical lift rod 42 upward beyond the level of the upper end of the vertical lift rod 42 and having a container holder 45, and means for adjusting a difference in level between the container support 41 and the container holder 45 so that the level difference become approximately equal to the height of the container C to be filled. <IMAGE>
