A filling device for filling containers with a liquid, including several filling elements, each of the filling elements having a filling valve, a filling tube and a return gas tube, where the filling tubes of the filling elements are arranged at a first common support and the return gas tubes of the filling elements are arranged at a second common support, and where the position of the second common support can be adjusted relative to the position of the first common support.

Filling device

Container clamp grip for a container transport system having two grip arms that can be swiveled about one or about two axles between a grip position and a release position, the two grip arms being applied with springiness in the direction toward the grip or toward the release position by a force storing unit presenting at least one pair of mutually repelling permanent magnets. The container clamp grip is controlled by a control cam. In the container grip position, a first air gap is provided between the permanent magnets, and in an extreme closed position of the clamp grip, if there is no container, a second, smaller air gap is provided between the permanent magnets.

Claw for a container transporting system

An apparatus for filling containers with liquid and in particular viscous media, comprising a filling element which can be introduced at least partially into a mouth of the container to be filled, wherein a filling body of this filling element is configured in such a way that the medium is directed at least also onto a wall of the container, comprising a connecting line for conveying the liquid medium from a reservoir for the liquid medium to the container, wherein the filling element is movable relative to the container in a longitudinal direction (L) of the container. According to the invention, the filling element is movable in the longitudinal direction (L) of the container.

Apparatus for bottling viscous media

A clamp grip for a container transport system including rare earth permanent magnets encapsulated in non-magnetic material such as high quality steel. Flexible positioning of the magnets allow for adapting to varied design specifications. A rotatable control cam or cams may be used to adjust grip arms between a grip and a release position. Air gap distances between permanent magnets may be designed to maximize repelling force to assist in the functioning of clamp grip mechanism.

A filling device for containers, particularly for beverage bottles, having a filling valve, a holder for the container in suspended arrangement, as well as a weighing device. To make the weighing device robust and the measurement more precise, the weighing device is assigned to the holder in close vicinity.
