Rotary type continuous filling apparatus

A rotary type continuous filling apparatus comprising:

• a tank installed on a continuously rotating filling rotor;
• a plurality of filling nozzles disposed vertically at equal intervals around a periphery of said filling rotor;
• pump devices provided so as to correspond to said filling nozzles, a piston of each of said pump devices making a reciprocating motion upon a rotation of said filling rotor, thus introducing a filling liquid into a cylinder of each of said pump devices from said tank and discharging said filling liquid toward said filling nozzle from said cylinder;
• and
• conveying means provided beneath said respective filling nozzles in positions that correspond to said filling nozzles, said conveying means holding and rotationally conveying containers,
• wherein while said filling rotor makes one rotation, said containers are received by said conveying means, filled with said filling liquid while being rotationally conveyed, and then discharged from said filling apparatus, and
• wherein said cylinder and piston are installed in substantially a horizontal direction with a discharge opening thereof facing outward.
