ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for filling a container having an opening with a liquid includes a valve assembly, disposed in the opening of the container, and a nozzle assembly. The valve assembly includes a housing having a plug detachably mounted therein. An inlet passageway extends through the plug to the interior of the container. An inlet valve is located in the inlet passageway. A relief passageway also extends through the plug to the interior of the container, and a relief valve is located in the relief passageway. The nozzle assembly is coupled to a liquid supply and is adapted to matingly engage an inlet port of the valve assembly. The nozzle assembly engages the inlet port to allow liquid from the liquid supply to flow through the inlet passageway into the interior of the container, and opens the relief valve to vent the interior of the container during the filling operation.
