Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2005019090A1] The invention relates to a counter-pressure filling device (G) for filling bottles (F) with gasified drinks (B) from a filling nozzle (8), cooperating with a closing element (V) and a seal arrangement (11) for the bottle opening (2). The closing element (V) has a full-jet nozzle (12) to generate a full jet (ST) of the gasified drink directed without contact through the bottle neck (1) to the bottle base (3), the cross-section of which corresponds to a given proportion of the inner cross-section of the bottle neck and, together with the bottle neck, defines a gas return path (W) and a fluid channel (17), at least for return gas (E), opens outside the filling nozzle and within the sealing arrangement. On filling, a free full jet (ST) is formed from the gasified drink directed without contact through the bottle neck (1) to the bottle base (3), whilst the return gas (E) is led off externally between the full jet and the bottle neck and outside the filling nozzle (8).
