- This invention is concerned with the filling of tubes with liquid and has particular application tofilling tubes with liquids which are to be used for hypodermic injection.
- the object of the invention is to improve that kind of apparatus so that the filling can be effected more expeditiously and without any particular diificulties by relatively unskilled labour.
- a carrier for the tubes to be filled is mounted to move relatively to a filler head so that sockets for the tubes move from a position in which the tubes are inserted, to a position in which they are filled with liquid and then into a position for discharging the filled tubes.

- the carrier is turned to bring the tubes below the piercers when the head is depressed and all the tubes are filled at the same time.
- the head is raised and the carrier plate rotated whereupon the filled tubes are pushed through the plate and discharged down a delivery chute.
- the doffer may consist of a number of hold-down levers pivoted about a 2 common horizontal axis, one lever for each tube and formed with a fork or ring-shaped flat forwardend to press on and retain the rubber diaphragm of the tube and to permit the needle to move down and piece the diaphragm for the filling operation. It is preferred for the levers to be pushed down by spring pressure and to be positively lifted by c'am action after the filling needles have been withdrawn. 7
- the carrier plate may be registered in the fillin'gposition or positions by a cam-operated registering or locating pin engaging one or more holes in the carrier'pl'ate and the tubes during the actual filling are preferably clamped resiliently in V-notches in plates or strips secured to the upper and lower faces of the carrier plate on the inward side of the tube sockets.
- the clamping is then effected by means of a presser bar held by a spring against the outer sides of the tubes in the filling position and pivoted about a vertical pin upstanding from the baseboard of the machine.

Company Limited, Notting- England,- a British company Application April 26, 1948, Serial'No. 23,314 In Great Britain May 15, 1947 1 13 Claims. c1; 226-93) This invention is concerned with the filling of tubes with liquid and has particular application tofilling tubes with liquids which are to be used for hypodermic injection.
It is customary to put up liquid anaesthetics in plan straight glass tubes-closed by a stopper at one end and provided at the other with an inserted disc or diaphragm of rubber or like soft material which can be pierced by a syringe needle in order to take up the liquid for use. Such tubes are commonly filled with the stopper and diaphragm in place by the use of a head fitting comprising a body and a projecting hollow piercer in which there are two passages; these passages emerge as tubes which are connected respectively to a Vacuum pump or source of reduced pressure and to a store of the filling liquid so that as air is Withdrawn from the tube, the air is replaced by the liquid which flows in to fill the tube.
The object of the invention is to improve that kind of apparatus so that the filling can be effected more expeditiously and without any particular diificulties by relatively unskilled labour.
According to the invention, a carrier for the tubes to be filled is mounted to move relatively to a filler head so that sockets for the tubes move from a position in which the tubes are inserted, to a position in which they are filled with liquid and then into a position for discharging the filled tubes. In a preferred form, the carrier is a rotary plate which is turned on a stud on the baseboard of the machine by intermittent or step-by-step gearing and has a number of tube sockets, for example, four formed in its fiat face near the mm.
The filler head bears a number of piercers corresponding to the number of tubes to be filled, each fitting being generally of the known form with the passages in the filler head casting and each having a connection to the vacuum pump and a connection to the source of filling liquid.
The carrier is turned to bring the tubes below the piercers when the head is depressed and all the tubes are filled at the same time. The head is raised and the carrier plate rotated whereupon the filled tubes are pushed through the plate and discharged down a delivery chute.
Difliculty has been sometimes experienced owing to the filling piercer being tight in the rubber diaphragm in the tube so that on withdrawing the piercer, the rubber diaphragm comes away with it. In order to obviate this drawback, a spring-loaded doifer is provided in accordance with the invention. The doffer may consist of a number of hold-down levers pivoted about a 2 common horizontal axis, one lever for each tube and formed with a fork or ring-shaped flat forwardend to press on and retain the rubber diaphragm of the tube and to permit the needle to move down and piece the diaphragm for the filling operation. It is preferred for the levers to be pushed down by spring pressure and to be positively lifted by c'am action after the filling needles have been withdrawn. 7
The carrier plate may be registered in the fillin'gposition or positions by a cam-operated registering or locating pin engaging one or more holes in the carrier'pl'ate and the tubes during the actual filling are preferably clamped resiliently in V-notches in plates or strips secured to the upper and lower faces of the carrier plate on the inward side of the tube sockets. The clamping is then effected by means of a presser bar held by a spring against the outer sides of the tubes in the filling position and pivoted about a vertical pin upstanding from the baseboard of the machine.
It has been found to be advantageous and to facilitate the insertion and Withdrawal of the filling needles to feed a small quantity of lubricant to the upper surfaces of the rubber diaphragms 'in the top of the tubes. This may be effected by means of a small pump or syringe having its plunger operated by a cam at each filling operation and having a flexible delivery tube delivering into feed tubes leading to the neighbourhood of the front end of each doffer lever.
In order that the invention may be clearly understood and readily carried into effect, an example of the filling machine according to the invention will now be more fully described with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which:
Figure 1 is a perspective view of the parts of the machine appearing above the baseboard;
Figure 2 is a plan of the machine with the baseboard shown partly broken away to disclose the driving mechanism;
Figure 3 is a side elevation seen from the right of Figure 1;
Figure 4 is an enlarged vertical section taken on the line IV--IV in Figure 2;
Figure 5 is a sectional plan taken on the line V-V in Figure 4;
Figure 6 is an enlarged axial section of one of the tubes; and r Figure '7 is an enlarged side elevation of one of the needle holders.
The parts of the machine which convey the 3 tubes l to be filled and operate upon tlieni are assembled on a baseboard 2 below which is located the driving and actuating mechanism. The form of tube is shown in detail Figure 6 which shows the plain straight tube I closed by a stopper 3 at the bottom end and having a rubber disc or diaphragm 4 inserted into its upper end, the disc being moulded with a thin central portion to facilitate piercing of the disc by the needle 5 through which the liquid is supplied and the needle 6 through which the air is extracted from the tube.
The rotatable carrier comprises two circular plates, an upper plate I and a lower plate 8 secured to the upper end of a vertical shaft 9 (Figure 3). In the example illustrated, four tubes I are filled at one time and the carrier is provided with five sets of sockets formed in the plates l, 8 and uniformly spaced around them. The tubes i in the sockets [0 rest on the upper surface of the baseboard 2 at the loading station A, at two resting stations B, C and at the filling station D, while at the station E the filled tubes are permitted to fall through a slot H in the baseboard 2 down a delivery chute. On the inner side of each set of sockets l0, two plates or strips l2 are fixed to the upper and lower faces of the upper circular plate 1 (Figures 1, 2 and 4) and are formed each with four V-notches [3. At the stations A, B, C, the tubes l are loose and free to accommodate themselves but at the filling station D, they are resiliently clamped in the notches l3 by a presser-bar l4 which lies between the upper and lower plates 1, 8 and is pivoted about a vertical pin l5 secured in the baseboard 2. As seen in Figure 2, the left-hand end of the bar l4 has attached to it a coiled tension spring I6 anchoredto a fixed pin H. The spring l6 therefore draws the presser-bar into contact with the tubes 1 at the filling station D and holds them resiliently but firmly located in the V notches [3.
The drive for the machine is derived from a pulley l8 driven by a belt (not shown) and fixed to a horizontal stub shaft l9 which also carries a worm 20. The latter meshes with a worm wheel 2| secured to a transverse horizontal shaft 22 to which a bevel wheel 23 is fixed at its opposite end. The bevel wheel. 23 drives a larger bevel wheel 24 integral with a spur pinion 25 on a stub shaft mounted in a bearing 26 and the pinion 25 drives a spur wheel 21 secured to the main shaft 28 of the machine.
The shaft 28 bears a driving member 29 which is in effect a mutilated worm with two teeth engaging a five-toothed wheel 30 fixed to the vertical shaft 9. Thus, at each revolution of the main shaft 28, the wheel 30 is turned by the amount of one tooth, that is to say by one-fifth of a revolution in the clockwise direction as seen in plan and as indicated by the arrow 3| in Figure 2. Thus each set of tubes 1 is moved from one station A, B, or C to the next and dwells there while one set of tubes is filled at the station D.
The four needle heads 32 are mounted in a block 33 secured to a horizontal bar 34. The latter is fixed at each end to a block 35. These blocks carry upwardly extending sleeves 36 by means of which they are guided on cylindrical rods 31 which are fixed at their upper ends to brackets 38 and at their lower ends are carried on blocks 39 at the ends of arms 40 which are secured to brackets 4| by bolts 42 and nuts 43. The blocks 35 are urged upwardly by coiled compression springs 44 surrounding the rods 31 and bearing between the blocks 35 and collars 45 fixed to the rods 31 by setscrews 46. The blocks 35 are further guided by ribs 41 projecting inwardly from fixed plates 48 and engaging grooves formed in the rear faces of the blocks 35. Thus the upward or withdrawing movement of the needles 5, 6 is produced by the springs 44. Their downward or piercing movement is provided by two cams 49 on the main shaft 28. Cam followers 50 are held on the cams and are carried by levers 5| pivoted at 52 and hinged to rods 53 connected to the head blocks 35 at 54. Thus as the cams 49 lift the followers 50, the rods 53 are drawn down and cause the needles 5, 6 to descend while the springs 44 are compressed.
A further cam 55 is carried by the main shaft 28 and acts to raise a cam follower 56 carried by a lever 51 which is pivoted at one end at 58. The follower 5B is held on to the cam 55 by a tension spring, not shown. The lever 51 is pivoted at its opposite end to a vertical registering or locating pin 59 which is in position to engage one pair of the holes 60 in the upper and lower plates 1, 8 to locate those plates when one set of tubes is at the filling station D.
The four doffer or hold-down levers 6| are pivoted at 62 on brackets 83 (Figure 3) and their rear ends are pressed up by plungers 64 by compression springs in a box 65 so as to press the ring-shaped front ends 66 of the levers 6| resiliently on to the rubber discs 4. The ends 56 are lifted from the discs by cams 61 (Figure 2) which lift cam followers 68 carried on levers 69 pivoted on fixed brackets at 10. Thus the rear ends of the levers 69 are drawn down and carry with them a pair of rods H which are united by a horizontal bar 12 which engages the upper surfaces of the four dofier levers GI and pulls them down so as to lift the front ends 56 of those levers.
Finally the main shaft 28 carries a cam I3 which operates the lubricant pump 14 to force a small quantity of glycerine on to the top surfaces of the rubber discs 4 in the neighbourhood of the points of the needles 5, 6. The cam 13 engages a cam follower 15 carried by a lever 16 pivoted at 11 to a fixed bracket 18. The other end of the lever 16 is forked as shown at 19 and is pivoted to the barrel of the pump 14 which is thus caused to slide up over the hollow plunger 8| of the pump and thus force glycerine out of the top of the plunger 8| into a fiexible delivery pipe 82. The barrel 80 is returned downwardly by a compression spring 83 which bears between the top of the barrel 80 and a fixed arm 84 integral with a pillar 85 fixed to the baseboard 2. The spring 83 thus also holds the follower 15 on the cam 13. The delivery pipe 82 leads to a manifold duct (not shown) from which four branches 86 (Figure 3) lead to nozzles 81 which are carried by hold-down levers 6| in a position to deliver the glycerine onto the top of the rubber discs 4.
Each needle head 32 as best seen in Figure '7 carries a needle 5 for feeding the filling liquid to the tubes l and a needle 6 from leading away the air from the tubes. The liquid is supplied through four flexible pipes 88 to the tops of the heads from a liquid reservoir (not shown) and the pipes 88 communicate with the needles 5. The air is drawn away by a suction pump (not shown) through pipes 89 connected to the sides of the heads 32.
In operation, the machine is started and tubes are loaded into the sockets ID at station A. After three revolutions of the main shaft 28, they arrive at the filling station D having engaged the presser-bar l4 which holds them firmly for filling.
The cams 61 permit the plungers 64 to bring the dofier levers 6| down into contact with the discs 4 and while they are thus held, the cams 49 cause the needles 5, 6 to descend-and pierce the discs 5, 6, and then the needles and dofier lever dwell during the filling operation. Then the cams 49 permit the needles 5, 6 to be withdrawn and thereupon the cams 6'! lift the dofier levers 6|. The gearing 29, 30 rotates the plates 1, 8 through a further step to bring the filled tubes I to the discharging station E at which the tubes drop away from the plates 1, 8 through the slot H into the delivery chute and collecting receptacle.
