A filling element includes a housing, a channel formed in the housing's interior and having a dispensing opening to introduce content into a package, a valve having a valve body that moves along an axis to open and close the valve, an actuator to move the valve body, an axial-sliding guide, and a rod-like guide element that at least partly forms the sliding guide. The axial-sliding guide guides a guided structure on or inside the guide element, and is disposed solely outside the liquid channel. The axial-sliding guide is formed at least in part by the rod-like guide element. The guided structure is either the valve body, a valve tappet, or a combination thereof. |

1. An apparatus for filling a package with liquid content, said apparatus comprising a filling element, wherein said filling element comprises a filling-element housing, a liquid channel, a dispensing opening, a valve having a valve body, an actuator, an axial-sliding guide, and a rod-like guide element, wherein said filling-element housing defines a filling-element-housing interior, wherein said liquid channel is formed in said filling-element-housing interior, wherein said dispensing opening is formed at least in part by said liquid channel, wherein said dispensing opening is disposed to introduce said liquid content into said package, wherein said valve body is movable along an axis, wherein said actuator is configured to move said valve body along said axis in an opening and closing stroke, wherein movement of said valve body along said axis results in opening and closing said valve, wherein said axial-sliding guide is configured to guide a guided structure, wherein said axial-sliding guide is disposed solely outside said liquid channel, which is occupied by said liquid contents, wherein said axial-sliding guide is formed at least in part by said rod-like guide element, wherein said rod-like guide element extends along said axis, wherein said guided structure is guided axially on or inside said rod-like guide element, wherein said axis is selected from the group consisting of a stroke axis and a filling element axis, and wherein said guided structure is selected from the group consisting of said valve body, a valve tappet, and a combination of said valve body and said valve tappet. |
