Abstract
A filling joint arrangement for a filling medium which is capable of flow, in particular for a sausage meat, including a first filling pipe portion with a first filling pipe axis and a second filling pipe portion with a second filling pipe axis, wherein the second filling pipe portion is reversibly pivotable from a filling position in which the second filling pipe axis is aligned with the first filling pipe axis into a tilted position in which the second filling pipe axis is out of alignment with the first filling pipe axis, and further including a joint device which is disposed in filling medium-tight relationship between the first and the second filling pipe portions and which has a first joint receiving portion connected in filling medium-tight relationship to the first filling pipe portion and which includes a joint intermediate portion which has a third filling pipe portion with a third filling pipe axis and which is held pivotably by the first joint receiving portion in such a way that it is reversibly pivotable from the filling position into a tilted position in which the third filling pipe axis is out of alignment with the first filling pipe axis. It is further provided that there is a second joint receiving portion which is connected in filling medium-tight relationship to the second filling pipe portion and which together with the second filling pipe portion is reversibly pivotable with respect to the joint intermediate portion out of the filling position by way of a tilted intermediate position in which at least the third filling pipe axis is out of alignment with the first filling pipe axis into a tilted end position in which the second filling pipe axis is out of alignment with the third filling pipe axis.
