FILLING ASSEMBLY, GASKET FOR USE IN SAID FILLING ASSEMBLY, AND A METHOD FOR FILLING LIQUID

摘要

A filling assembly (100) for filling of a tube (28) of packaging material having a seal starting at a first level, comprises a conduct (106) arranged to lead liquid into the tube 28 of packaging material below said first level and a passage (110) arranged to eject gas through openings (118) into the tube (28) of packaging material below said first level. The filling assembly is characterized in that a gasket (120) is arranged to provide a seal between said filling assembly and said tube (28) of packaging material upstream said openings such that the overpressure P1 downstream the gasket may exceed an ambient pressure Pa upstream the gasket
