SEALING DEVICE FOR A CONTAINER FOR ASEPTICALLY RECEIVING A FLOWABLE PRODUCT AND CONTAINER AND METHOD FOR ASEPTIC FILLING

摘要

A closure device for a container for aseptically receiving a flowable product has a spout with a product filling duct extending axially between a first end and a second end. The closure device has a closure cap which can be mounted onto the spout. In the mounted state, the cap closes the second end of the product filling duct. The closure cap is connectable in axially positively locking fashion to the spout in two axially different positions. The first position is a position in which the closure cap is not fully mounted on the spout, and the second position is a position in which the closure cap is fully mounted on the spout. The closure cap can bear sealingly against the spout in the first position and in the second position to optimize sterility during the filling process.
