In a device for filling with heavy gas insulating glass panes (10) which are not yet pressed, there is a seal means (80) which can be moved between the plates of the device and which is movably guided via carriages (90, 91) on guide rails (92, 93) mounted on one of the plates (2). The seal (80) can be swivelled by a drive (100) around a horizontal axis (99) so that it is can be swivelled from a position in which it encloses an acute angle with a front side (102) of the plate (2), in which position it is pushed along the plate (2) into its active position in which it is aligned parallel to the front side (102) of the plate (2). The seal on the downstream side edge of the plates can move via parallelogram connecting rods so that it can be moved from a readiness position located next to the plates into a sealing position which adjoins the vertical edges of the plates.
In a device for filling an insulating glass pane (10) with heavy gas, comprising upright plates (1, 2) adapted to be located on either side of said insulating glass pane (10) to be filled, of which at least one movable plate (2) can move transversely to its plane relative to the other plate (1), conveyor means (9) for supporting lower edges of said plates (1, 2), the conveyor means being made gas-tight, and upright sealing means (30, 31, 80) adapted to seal opposite upright edges of the insulating glass pane (10), one said sealing means (31, 80) being movable parallel to the planes of the plates (1, 2) without contacting said upright edges of the insulating glass pane (10);
