Abstract (en)

To provide a filling device that realizes simplification of device configuration, improvement of design freedom, and reduction of production loads, and that prevents formation of a pointed peak on the upper surface of packed contents, or uneven filling of the container. Provided is a filling device (10) including a filling nozzle (20) having a nozzle hole (23), contents supply means (30) for supplying contents (B) to the nozzle hole (23), a plunger (40) disposed inside the nozzle hole (23) such as to be movable up and down, and gas supply means (50) for supplying a gas (A). A gas inlet (25) connected to the gas supply means (50), a gas outlet (26) opened to the nozzle hole (23), and a gas flow passage (27) are formed in the filling nozzle (20). The gas (A) supplied from the gas supply means (50) is ejected from a gap between an inner circumferential surface of the nozzle hole (23) and an outer circumferential surface of the plunger (40) at a lower end of the filling nozzle (20).
