Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0012387A1] The apparatus for changing the gas composition inside a packaging container, especially for transferring protective gas or the like into a sealable container, comprises a passage for transferring a gas composition into a filled container. Said apparatus comprises a filling plane (T), which is provided with a centre opening (10), and a feeding device in order to position the filled container (1) under the centre opening (10), whereby the passage (8) for transferring the gas composition is brought to the filling plane (T) for transferring the gas composition into the container (1). Moreover, the apparatus comprises a feeding device for positioning the lid (4) above the filling plane (T), and transfer devices for moving the lid (4), the filling plane (T) and the container (1) closer to each other in the direction of a vertical line passing through the centre opening (10).
