Abstract:
A method and a device for the sterilization and filling of a cup type container and a cup type container-packed beverage packed by the method. In the method, a first conveyor (2) carrying cup type containers (38) in an upside down state and a second conveyor (3) carrying the containers in an upright state on the downstream side of the first conveyor are disposed in one continuous aseptic chamber (1) linearly in a roughly same plane, a container feeder (7), a container sterilizing zone (10), and a container washing zone (11) are disposed in order along the first conveyor (2), a contents filling device (40), a cover material sealing device (41), and a sealed cup type container discharge device are disposed in order along the second conveyor (3), sterilization and washing are performed while the containers in the upside down state are carried by the first conveyor (2), the washed containers are inverted and transferred from the first conveyor to the second conveyor (3), and the filling of contents and the sealing of cover materials are performed on the second conveyor (3). Thus, the cup type containers can be stably inverted and transferred from the sterilizing and washing zones to filling and sealing zones in the aseptic chamber (1), and odor and the mixing of bacteria can be prevented from occurring.
