Apparatus for filling tubular casings with a pasty material, in particular gathered-together sausage cases with sausagemeat. The apparatus includes at least one filling tube which is drivable and rotatable about its longitudinal axis and onto which a casing which can be filled with a material can be drawn, wherein an end of the filling tube is rotatably moveably mounted to a receiving portion and associated with the opposite open end is a sausage case braking unit which can be brought into operative relationship with a casing which has been drawn over the filling tube. Arranged on the receiving portion is a support device which has a support element for the filling tube, that is arranged at a spacing (x) relative to the receiving portion in the longitudinal direction of the filling tube, wherein the support element is adapted to carry transverse forces acting on the filling tube. |
