A filling head apparatus for filling a container in sterile conditions. The filling head comprises a regulating valve displaceable in three positions: open position, closed position, and displacement position. The inner wall of the spout of the container is cleaned by a pushing cylinder of the regulating valve traveling from the closed position to the displacement position. In addition, the filling head can freely move in respect to a sterile filling chamber encompassing the filling tip of the filling head. Furthermore, the filling head of the present invention comprises a diversion path to minimize the "water hammer" effect.

[ What is claimed is:] [1.] A filling head apparatus for filling a container having a spout opening for filling, comprising:a filling head housing defining a filling head chamber, said filling head housing has a fluid inlet portion for receiving fluid to be filled in the container, a filling tip for delivering the fluid to the container;a regulating valve disposed within said filling head housing for regulating flow of the fluid from said filling head chamber to said container through a spout opening of the container, said regulating valve being displaceable within said filling head housing in at least three positions, said at least three positions comprising an open position, a closed position, and a displacement position, wherein when said regulating valve is in said open position, said fluid is allowed to flow into said container from said filling head chamber, and when said regulating valve is in said closed position and said displacement position, said fluid is blocked to flow from said filling head chamber into said container, and said regulating valve terminates as a pushing cylinder so that when said regulating valve travels from said closed position to said displacement position, said pushing cylinder of the regulating valve protrudes into said spout opening; andan escape path positioned inside said regulating valve for assisting residual fluid to escape from the interior of said spout opening.
