Abstract:
1. A method for filling a plastic container ( 54 ) with a neck ( 50 ), and an attachment of a capsule ( 1 ) thereon, in a bottling installation, wherein the capsule ( 1 ) is of a plastic deformable material, with substances enclosed therein in a solid, a liquid or a free-flowing condition, which are to be dispensed into the plastic container ( 54 ), the method including the steps of first filling the plastic container ( 54 ) in an aseptic manner and then sealing the container neck ( 50 ) with a membrane ( 80 ), whereupon the capsule ( 1 ) is attached onto the membrane ( 80 ) and a cap or closure ( 100 ) is placed over the capsule ( 1 ) onto the container neck ( 50 ) and wherein the capsule ( 1 ) is manufactured of two aluminium films welded to one another, wherein the lower film ( 2 ) forms a receiver space ( 3 ) which is deep drawn or pressed, and an upper covering aluminium film ( 6 ) is planar, so that both films together have a planar edge around the receiver space ( 3 ), in a first step, the edge which is formed together by the two films ( 2 , 6 ) of the capsule ( 1 ), is bent out of the planar surface by less than 90° but by more than 45°, so that a peripheral collar arises with a diameter of a magnitude of the container neck ( 50 ), onto which the capsule ( 1 ) is placed and held on the container neck ( 50 ) with a positive fit and/or a friction fit, the cap ( 100 ) is stuck on and holds the capsule ( 1 ) at least on the container neck ( 50 ) in the required position.
