Replacement lock lever for an automatic beverage filling machine

In an automatic beverage machine for filling cans, a platform lift cylinder assembly, a filling head comprising a filling seal and a selectively rotatable lock lever associated with said platform lift cylinder assembly, the lock lever being rotated between active and inactive positions and comprising an L-shaped configuration defining a corner in which a single rotatable eccentric sleeve is disposed, the selective rotation of the eccentric sleeve in respect to the corner of the lock lever vertically changing an axis rotation of the lock lever to thereby change the vertical position of the lock lever including a changing the elevation of a horizontally-disposed support surface at one end of the lock lever when in the active position thereby causing imposition by-the lock lever of a different vertical force within an acceptable controlled tolerance on said associated platform lift cylinder assembly which is transferred to a beverage receiving can to prevent can damage and leakage, eccentric sleeve comprising a one-piece sleeve defining a shaft-receiving eccentric bore, the bore being parallel to but offset from a longitudinal axis of the sleeve being selectively rotatably carried in an aperture in the corner.
