Abstract: The present invention relates to a rotary filling machine with injection of inert gas for filling containers with liquids, comprising a rotating platform (2) provided peripherally with a plurality of filling valve assemblies (3), each of which is provided with a duct (4) for supplying the liquid from a storage tank (6) to a container (7) to be filled. Each valve assembly (3) comprises in particular a blow-in pipe (23) provided with an outlet mouth (60) connected to the bottom end of said duct (4), so as to introduce inert gas inside the container (7) in order to reduce the presence of oxygen which may be absorbed by part of the liquid during a step involving filling of the container (7).

Abstract: A rotary liquid container-filling machine has valve assemblies (3), mounted on a rotating platform (2), each of provided with a duct (4) intercepted by an obturator (5) for regulating the supply of liquid from a storage tank (6) to the container (7) and having an air return pipe (8). A centering cone (10) receives in abutment the mouth of the container (7) to cause opening of the obturator (5) mounted at the bottom of each valve assembly (3). A flushing station (14) associated with the rotating platform (2), but fixed with respect thereto, is provided with at least one collecting tray (15) which is moved by a linear actuator (16) so as to be positioned underneath the valve assemblies (3) passing above it. For this purpose first a actuator means (17) opens each obturator (5) when valve assemblies (3) pass above the collecting tray (15).
