A tapping tube intended for the filling of container-like receptacles, such as bottles, with a liquid, said tapping tube preferably communicating with a metering pump, whereby the liquid in question is intended to flow through the tapping tube and to be interrupted during removal and replacement of the receptacles in question. The object of the invention is to make available an arrangement for a tapping tube of this kind, by means of which above all dribbling and dripping can be prevented, especially in conjunction with the removal and replacment of the receptacles. According to the invention there is connected to the tapping tube (1) a suction channel (14) which discharges in the vicinity of its lower end and which is so arranged as to be actuated in such a way as to provide a suction effect at least for the duration of the aforementioned interruption in the flow of liquid through the tapping tube. |
