Abstract (en)
[origin: EP0761591A1] The liquid to be filled into the bottles is contained in a circular tank (2) through which the vertical filling mechanism extends. The liquid has a controlled level (4) above which a gas, eg. CO2 is maintained at a controlled pressure. A level monitor (31) extends out of the gas control valve (21,22) which controls the amount of gas added to each bottle. No separate liquid filing nozzle is required with the liquid dropped into the bottle from the tank. Ring ducts and control valves regulate the filling cycle. The pressure in each bottle is reduced slightly prior to removal of the filling system.
