  • Patent number: 4606174
    Abstract: In the manufacture of packing containers of the type containing a liquid product with a certain portion of "solid" particles (e.g. soup with pieces of fruit) it is difficult to fill the packing containers in such a manner that the desired proportions of liquid and solid contents are safeguarded. This is the case in particular in modern, fast working packing machines, since the filling time is short and a rapid filling, moreover, increases the risk of contents ending up in undesirable places and rendering difficult the sealing of the packing container. In accordance with the invention which relates to a method as well as to an arrangement for the manufacture of packing containers, this is solved by feeding the solid and liquid parts separately via two filling pipes, the feeding of the liquid contents being ended only after the feeding of solid particles has been ended.
