Abstract

The interaction between a filling valve (28) on the filling device and an adapter valve on a bottle adapter has improved anesthetics filling features including radially inwardly directed bars (26), which engage (pass into) corresponding slots on the outlet pipe of the bottle adapter. The bars engaged in the slots actuate the adapter valve. The bars are provided on the inner wall of a filler neck (22).
