<p>An ink filling device is provided with a suction means (31), a filling means (32), and a drive means (33). The suction means (31) and the filling means (32) are provided with nozzles (6, 7), respectively, which are configured to be inserted into containers into which ink is to be filled and which extend in the horizontal direction. Openings (6a, 7a) communicating with the inside of the containers are formed in the nozzles (6, 7) on the upper side thereof in the vertical direction. The nozzles (6, 7) are arranged next to each other in the vertical direction so as to extend parallel to each other. The drive means (33) is configured so as to integrally move the nozzles (6, 7) in the vertical direction. Despite being simple in construction, even when multiple containers need to be filled with ink, the ink filling device can complete the filling in a reduced time and has no possibility of soiling the containers.</p> |
