Abstract
A filling system including: a bottle having a hollow enclosure with a base; a filling module that includes a reservoir; a plate able to move between a high position and a low position; a pump; a compression system configured so as to compress the pump when the plate descends; a pipe assembly between the reservoir and the plate and the pump; and a connection assembly for fluid between the plate and the base.

A filling system comprising:
- a bottle having a hollow enclosure with a base pierced with two holes,
- a filling module comprising:
- a reservoir having a bottom,
- a plate able to be moved in translation vertically between a high position and a low position and having a location for accommodating the base,
- a pump in the form of a flexible enclosure,
- a compression system configured so as to compress the pump when the plate passes from the high position to the low position,
- a return means that constrains the plate in the high position, and
- a pipe assembly between the reservoir and the plate on one side and between the reservoir and the pump on an other side, and
- a connection assembly for a fluid between the plate and the base and which comprises:
- for each of the two holes, a valve housed in the hole, extended in the bottle by a pipe and able to move between a closed position and an open position,
- a first valve and a second valve both fixed to the plate, able to move between a closed position and an open position, the first valve being designed to cooperate with one of the valves and the second valve being designed to cooperate with the other valve, the second valve being connected to one of the pipes of said set of pipes,
- where said pipe assembly comprises:
- a first pipe emerging in the reservoir at the bottom,
- a second pipe emerging in the reservoir at a distance from the bottom and connected to the second valve,
- a first non-return valve between the first pipe and the pump and allowing a liquid to pass from the first pipe to the pump,
- a connecting pipe extending the first valve,
- a second non-return valve between the connecting pipe and the pump, and allowing the liquid to pass from the pump to the connecting pipe, and
- an opening/closing mechanism configured so as to simultaneously open the valves when the first valve is in contact with one of the valves and the second valve is in contact with the other valve, and to simultaneously close the valves when they are not in contact,
- and where the filling module comprises a base consists of a platen and a sub-platen fixed to one another and between which part of the second pipe is implemented by means of recesses, where the plate comprises a top plate and an underplate fixed to one another and between which part of the second pipe is implemented by means of recesses, and where the second pipe has an intermediate part that extends between the plate and the base, and where the intermediate part takes the form of a bellows tube,
- wherein the ends of the two pipes that emerge in the bottle are at the same height in the bottle.
