Abstract

A filling amount adjustment device for a liquid-form substance filling machine, the device including first sliding units disposed on a swing arm and connecting links pivotally attached at one ends to connecting pins of first sliding members (of the first sliding units) that slide along the length of the arm. Second sliding units are disposed on both sides of the swing arm, and the other ends of the connecting links are pivotally connected to the connecting pins of second sliding members (of the second sliding units). Connecting rods connected to piston rods are pivotally connected to the connecting pins. When fine adjustment shafts in which male screws are cut are rotated, the second sliding members are moved and positioned; as a result, the first sliding members slide via the connecting links, thus changing the positions of the connecting pins in the direction of length of the arm.
