Abstract (en)
A paperboard container filling machine (10) comprising an aseptic chamber (40) having: an upper air distribution chamber (45); a lower processing chamber (46) housing processing equipment (42, 49) configured for interacting with paperboard containers passing through the processing chamber; a throughflow plate (47) separating the air distribution chamber and the processing chamber, the throughflow plate having a plurality of through-openings (48) configured for directing the air from the air distribution chamber to the processing chamber, and a paperboard container transport sub-system configured for transporting the paperboard containers through the processing chamber along a container transport path (14) from an inlet opening (41) to an outlet opening (43) of the processing chamber. The throughflow plate comprising a substantially horizontal planar section (55) and first and second curved sections (56), each curved section displaying a convex ruled surface facing the processing chamber, the ruled surface being defined by rulings which are parallel and extend orthogonal or substantially orthogonal to said transport path.
