Abstract:
To provide a filling device that realizes simplification of device configuration, improvement of design freedom, and redaction of production loads, and that prevents formation of a pointed peak on the upper surface of packed contents, or uneven filling of the container. Provided is a filling device ( 10 ) including a filling nozzle ( 20 ), a contents supplier ( 30 ), a plunger ( 40 ), and a gas supplier ( 50 ). A gas inlet ( 25 ) connected to the gas supplier ( 50 ), a gas outlet ( 26 ) opened to the nozzle hole ( 23 ), and a gas flow passage ( 27 ) are formed in the filling nozzle ( 20 ). The gas (A) supplied from the gas supplier ( 50 ) is ejected from a gap between an inner circumferential surface of the nozzle hole ( 23 ) and an outer circumferential surface of the plunger ( 40 ) at a lower end of the filling nozzle ( 20 ).

Claim (Index 1):
A filling device comprising: a filling nozzle having a nozzle hole formed along an up and down direction and opened downward; a contents supplier that supplies contents to the nozzle hole; a plunger that is disposed inside the nozzle hole such as to be movable up and down and pushes out the contents supplied in the nozzle hole downward; and a gas supplier that supplies a gas,\n the filling nozzle being formed with a gas inlet connected to the gas supplier, a gas outlet opened to the nozzle hole, and a gas flow passage connecting the gas inlet and the gas outlet, a gas supplied by the gas supplier being ejected from a gap between an inner circumferential surface of the nozzle hole and an outer circumferential surface of the plunger at a lower end of the filling nozzle.
