Embodiment Construction

[0028] like figure 1 As can be seen in a schematic partial view, a gravity spool filler 1 for filling beverages 2, such as spirits, wine or similar liquid products into bottles 3 comprises a product pot 4 and a plurality of The filling valve 5 (only one of which is shown) can be opened and closed in a known manner by squeezing and removing the bottle 3 .

[0029] Gravity spool filler 1 is preferably of the circumferential type, so that product pot 4 , which can also be configured as an annular pot (not shown), for example, and filling valve 5 are arranged on the rotor of filler turret 6 . this is in figure 1 is illustrated schematically by the axis of rotation 6a.

[0030] If especially from figure 1 As can be seen in the enlarged section in , the filling valve 5 comprises a return gas pipe 7 which is hermetically closed by the raised beverage 2 at the end of the respective filling process, whereby the beverage flows into 8 (product). inflow) slowly stopped.

Abstract

The present invention relates to gravity spool fillers and methods for gravity filling beverages. The gravity spool filler includes a product pot and a fill valve coupled therewith, the fill valve being configured to limit the fill height in the bottle by means of a return gas tube. Since the regulating valve is exclusively located in front of the filling valve, the regulating valve is used for machine-controlled throttling of the beverage inflow to the filling valve, so that the contact between the beverage in the product pot and the filling valve can be reduced in a targeted manner. As a result of the influence of the hydrostatic pressure, the rise of the beverage in the return gas line is reduced and the filling height can be adjusted precisely without filling height correction or filling height monitoring by means of a probe.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to gravity spool fillers and methods for gravity filling beverages. Background technique [0002] For filling beverages, such as spirits, wine or similar liquid products into bottles, the well-known gravity spool fillers have proven effective. During filling then there is a constant pressure between the product pot with the beverage to be filled and the interior of the bottle to be filled, present on the gravity spool filler. This constant pressure can exist not only at ambient pressure, but also at overpressure, eg for filling carbonated beverages. [0003] In such a filler, the filling height is preferably adjusted by the length of the return tube formed on the filling valve in such a way that the filled beverage is raised until the free end of the return tube is reached and is airtight. Close the return trachea. Therefore, the injection of the beverage to be filled will slowly stop. However, the beverage is raised u...
