For filling the inner space of an insulating glass panel (1) with argon, one glass pane is maintained at a distance from the spacer frame in the region of one corner (2) during pressing of the insulating glass panel (1), by holding this glass pane at a spacing from the spacer frame by pivoting of a portion (12) of the press plate (11), with the aid of suction cups (19, 20) provided at this portion (12). Through the thus-formed gap, a probe (4) for feeding argon and a probe (5) for exhausting air from the inner space of the insulating glass panel are introduced. The probe (4) blowing argon into the inner space is oriented in parallel to the lower horizontal leg of the insulating glass panel (1), and the other probe (5), exhausting air and/or air-argon mixture, exhibits an orifice pointing obliquely upwardly, i.e. away from the other probe (4). Thereby, insulating glass panels (1) can be produced with a filling of the inner space other than air without having to drill holes into the spacer frame, the gas exchange proceeding in such a way that argon is intermixed to an only quite limited extent with the air displaced from the inner space.

In a method for filling the inner space of semifinished insulating glass panels, comprising at least two glass panes and an interposed spacer frame, with a gas other than air, wherein a slot-like opening is formed for feeding gas and withdrawing air and/or air-gas mixture, by holding one of the glass panes of the semifinished insulating glass panel at a spacing from the spacer frame when the semifinished insulating glass panel, after composing the pane package, is pressed while standing substantially vertically in a press between press plates, gas being blown into and air and/or air-gas mixture being withdrawn from the interior of the semifinished insulating glass panel through the thus-formed, slot-like opening, the improvement comprising: holding one of the glass panes of the semifinished insulating glass panel at a spacing from the spacer frame in the zone of only one lower corner of the semifinished insulating glass panel while retaining the remaining portion of this glass pane by the press plates in contact with the spacer frame; injecting gas into the interior of the semifinished insulating glass panel with a flow direction oriented essentially in parallel to the lower horizontal leg of the spacer frame; and withdrawing air and/or air-gas mixture form the interior of the semifinished insulating glass panel through a region of the slot-like opening lying above the region of the slot-like opening through which gas is injected into the interior of the semifinished insulating glass panel.
