Abstract

See full text

An apparatus for filling containers (B) with articles (P2), has a filling station (6), a container conveyor (3) by means of which containers (B) which are to be filled are fed into the filling station (6), at least one article conveyor (2) for conveying the articles (P2) into a region of the filling station (6), and at least one filling unit (7) by means of which a filling space of the containers (B) which are to be filled is filled with the fed articles (P2) in the filling station (6). The apparatus has filling aids (4, 5), at least in the region of the filling station (6), for at least some of the containers (B), the filling aids deforming these containers (B) before they are filled in the filling station (6) or enlarging the filling openings thereof or forming filling guides for these containers (B). This easily allows containers (B) to be completely filled even if the containers (B) have been transported in the partially filled state.
