The door is, on top end, close to the remote side from the joints 25, 26, provides a pin 30 which can cooperate with a closing device 31 on the bypass platform 4, as will be explained in more detail.

As shown in Figure 5, on top side 28 of housing 20, a first opening 32 is provided which connects the internal space 33 of the room 20 with the environment. The purpose of the same returned in greater detail. The cooler 2 is additionally provided with conventional cooling means such as a compressor, condenser or lines (not shown) to cool the internal space 33 of the cooler 2. Due to this modular construction of the cooler, the advantage is obtained that an essentially standard cooler can be used. The back panel 22, side panels 23 and door 24 can always be adapted to the intended use, for example by printing, adhesives, (adhesive) film or equivalent with, for example, trademark, color combinations, logos, similar figures and means of distinction about it. Of course, panels 22, 23 and / or door 24 may also be manufactured, for example, in a special embodiment, while, for example, reliefs may also be used, lighting may be included and similar special external embellishments. The panels may be attached to the housing 20, but may also be retained during the mounting of the scroll module and the bypass platform to be examined herein. For this purpose, the panels 22, 23 are provided with curved edges 34.

Figure 6 shows, in disassembled condition, a branch platform 4 according to the invention, while Figure 7 shows the same branch platform 4 in assembled condition. Derivative platform 4 comprises a top platform 35 and a deep platform 36, both preferably manufactured by injection molding, compression molding or a similar mounting technique, preferably from plastic.

The bypass platform 4 further comprises a junction box 37 in which two fans 38, 39 are received, and a tube forming part 40. In a bottom wall 41, the junction box comprises a bent tube forming part 4 which, Together with partition 40, it forms a bent inlet tube 43 which opens into internal space 33 of refrigerator 2 on one side (in the condition mounted bypass device) and opens into an opening 44 on bypass platform 4 on the other. side. On a first side of the tube forming part, in the bottom wall 41, an air supply opening 45 is provided for a first fan 38, while on the opposite side an opening 46 is provided for air discharge via the second fan39. Here the partition 40 is formed so that air from the first fan 38 can be blown into the inlet tube 43 in the direction of the opening 44 in the bypass platform 4. With the help of the other fan39, during use the Air may be drawn from the opening 44 in the bypass platform, at least one bypass column 5 provided thereon, as will be explained in more detail. In the assembled condition, the junction box 37 seals substantially air tight against the longitudinal edge of the opening 44, at least the underside of the branch platform.

At the top platform 36 and bottom platform 35, a respective opening 44 is provided which forms a clamping opening 47 with a shunt platform mounted to insert a base 48 to the junction box 5. Ribs 49 are provided in the clamping opening 47 extending in the insertion direction Z to guide and position the base 48. From the rear side of the bypass platform 4, two openings are provided into which the teeth 50 of a U-shaped retaining means 51 can be inserted. These teeth are a little wedge shaped. The connecting piece 52 between the teeth is provided with a hole 53 through which a pin or similar traction means may be passed, such as which the teeth 50 may be forced, in particular, pulled into all openings. At base 48 (Figure 9), on two opposite sides, one is provided 54, on each of which a tooth 50 may be received. The notches 54 are formed and placed such that upon further insertion of the teeth 50, the base 48 is pulled more firmly into the deflection opening 47. This results in a particular advantage, simple attachment of the junction box to the junction platform, which can be used repeatedly.

When placing the bypass platform 4 on cooler 2, the junction box 37 will be inserted into opening 32 so that it is sealed and openings 44 and 45 and inlet tube 43 open into the inner space 33.

On the top side of the bypass platform 36, a lower 55 is provided which is preferably impermeable to water. At recess 55, a drip tray 56 may be received snap-on so that a locking edge 57 thereof extends over a lowering edge 58. Under the locking edge 57, at the edge 58, a recess 59 is provided. so that the drip tray 56 can be grasped and removed simply. On the top side, the drip tray 56 is provided with a support edge 61 on which a grate or plate 62 with openings 63 may be arranged. Such a bypass platform has the advantage that the drip tray 56 can be easily picked up and emptied as a whole so that contamination of the bypass device 1 in general and bypass platform 4 in particular is simply prevented. In addition, this makes cleaning easy.

Between the top platform 36 and the bottom platform 35, at least in the bypass platform 4, on a front side, is provided the closing device 31 mentioned above. This comprises a hook 65 required in a retaining direction L by a spring 64, hook 65 which may hook behind the pin 30 in the assembled condition to keep the door 24 closed. A sliding member 66 is sliding in direction L and opposite sliding within an edge profile 68 of bottom platform 37. Thus, hook 65 can be moved counter-direction L to open, at least releasing the door. 24. Due to this condition, a particularly advantageous closing mechanism is obtained which can be received virtually completely on the bypass platform 4. As a result, the manufacture of the refrigerator is further simplified and therefore made less expensive. More expensive assembly operations can then, for example, be performed off-site at a distance from refrigerator manufacturing.

As appears, in particular, from Figure 7 above the lower edge, the longitudinal edge of the bypass is adjusted slightly backwards over at least a portion of the front side and the two longitudinal sides. Here, on the top platform, a lowering 69 is provided so that, in the assembled condition, the accessories 70 can be hooked onto it, as shown schematically in Figure 2. For this purpose, the accessory is provided with a vertical edge for example. which can be inserted into the drawdown. The accessory then rests additionally on the bottom platform and / or the top side 28 of the compartment 20. This results in a pleasing appearance both with and without the accessory, offers simple installation operations and no mounting means are visible. . All types of accessories can be considered, for example, (but not limited to) a parasol, table or similar support surface, cup holder, a trash can, a tool holder, a cooling tray and the like.

Figure 8 shows, slightly enlarged, the connection of junction box 37 to junction platform 35. What is clearly visible is that the inlet tube 43 opens into the clamping opening 47. In addition, a passage is provided. 71 which connects junction box 37 with fixing opening 47, separate from inlet tube 43.

Figure 9 shows, in partially disassembled condition, a bypass column 5 according to the invention which is shown in Figure 10 in different views as being assembled. The bypass column 5 comprises the first two wrap portions 72, 73 which are substantially mirror symmetrical along a decentral longitudinal plane 74, schematically shown in Figure 10. The wrap portions are interconnected with the aid of snap-fit means 75, like fingers. and corresponding apertures thereby forming an inner tube 78 with two channels 76, 77. Each wrap portion 72, 73 comprises half of a first channel 76 and an adjacent second channel 77. These channels 76, 77 are interconnected within the inner tube 78 near a first upper end 79. The first end 79 is formed by a ring 80 with an opening 81 which connects with channels 76, 77. On the underside, the two channels 76, 77 form queen stumps with inlet tube 43 and passage 71 respectively. Bypass column 5 further comprises two second wrap portions 82, 83, mutually engaging with the help of snapping fingers 84 which may clamp behind an edge 85. The second second wrap portions 82, 83 may surround the inner tube 78. A second portion The operationally front wrap is provided with a neck-shaped opening 86 into which from the rear side the ring 80 can be slid off. From the front side, a screw ring 87A can be fixed to opening 86 with the help of a washer 87B. A tap tap88, for example, known from the applicant's EP 1 289 874, may be screwed into the screw ring 87 for attachment. The tap-tap can be bent outwardly to insert a valve 99 included in a beverage line 101, as known from EP 1 284 918 and WOO1 / 92142, a valve that can be opened and closed by the tap-tap. Preferably, the line extends operationally upwardly beyond the end of a nozzle 89 of the tap tap 88 so that contact between the beverage and the tapping device, in particular tapping post 5, is prevented. This minimizes the need for cleaning.

The second wrapper portion 83 is provided over the top rear with a connection point 91A to which a shield91, for example a lens clip with a lens 93, may be attached. for example, a trademark may be represented, in word and / or logo, or another expression (advertisement). In addition, for example, lighting may be included in it.

The second second parts are, on the outside bottom, provided with ribs 92 extending in the insertion direction Z. The slots and notches 54 in the base 48 are clearly visible, into which teeth 50 may be inserted after the base. 48 have been inserted into the attachment opening 47. The notches preferably taper slightly in the direction of the front side 100 of the bypass column 5 and have a principal direction approximately at right angles to the insertion direction Z. Ribs 92 on base 48 and ribs 49 in aperture 47 preferably slidably interlock so that extra stability is obtained.

After the first and second wrap portions are secured to each other in the manner mentioned above, preferably the space between inner tube 78 and the second portions 82, 83 is filled with foam, so that the wrap portions are even better connected, one another. insulation sheath is obtained and, in addition, the hardness of the derivative column is considerably increased with a relatively low weight. Of course other means of hardening such as ribbing or the like may also be used.

Figure 11 shows a first embodiment of a container 94 in partial cross section for use with a branch device according to the invention. On a top surface 95, this container has a valve 96 or other interceptor, on which a connecting element 97 is provided. This connecting element connects to a collar 98 around valve 96. A substantially flexible hose101 is fixed to the connecting element as a beverage line, so that when the valve 96 with the connecting element is pushed open, it can flow. from the inner space of the container 94 via an elevator 105 and through the beverage line to the valve 99 near the opposite end of the line. During use, this valve 99 may be opened by the tap tap 88 as directed to let the beverage flow out. The line 101 may be passed from the cooler internal space 33 through the inlet tube 43 into the first channel 76 and pushed through it into the tap tap 88 to couple with an operating mechanism on tap tap 88.

Incidentally, valve 99 may also be omitted if the bypass tap is designed with a mechanism for squeezing the open or closed line. In this embodiment, first, the hose 101 is disposed by the bypass port 88 is squeezed closed, and then the valve 96 is squeezed open. Other means for opening and closing the bypass tap and / or beverage line passage 101 may also be used. With cup 38, via inlet tube 43, internal air cooled 33 can be forced through first channel 76, along drink line 101, arch can be sucked out through second channel 77, back into space 33 with the help of the second fan 39. This results in continuous cooling of the beverage line with minimal loss of energy to the tap 88.

In container 94, a depression control unit 102 is received with which gas, such as CO2, is automatically dispensed when the pressure in the container falls below a preset pressure, so that a desired control pressure can always be set and maintained, for example. for example, an equilibrium pressure of CO2 in the beverage. When opening the beverage line, at least the tap tap 88, aborted, will be dispensed from the container so that the norecipient pressure decreases. The pressure control unit will then bring the pressure back to the desired level. These pressure control units are known to you, for example from EP 1064221 or US 5,368,207. The use of the same in a bypass device according to the invention is particularly advantageous because it makes the device considerably more mobile and easier to use. In an alternative embodiment, a container 94 according to the invention is shown in Figure 12; where in a conventional manner gas is introduced into the container and the beverage is discharged. Here, use is made of an adapter and connecting head as known from NL 1017742 or NL 1016687. With this embodiment, preferably a cylinder 104 is received in internal space 33 of cooler 2. As shown in Figure 5, in cooler 2, a platform 103 is provided upon which the gas cylinder can be placed. Of course, a gas cylinder can also be used outside the refrigerator or a pump if, for example, air or liquid is used to displace the beverage from the container. The last mentioned means are particularly suitable for use with a type of pouch within the container of the container.

With the shown embodiments of container 94, hose 101 with valve 99, if present, is preferably available. Bypass column 5 preferably has dimensions such that it can be received in the interior space of the conveyor cooler 2. The storage of the bypass device saves considerable expense and, in addition, protects the bypass column.

The invention is not limited in any way to the embodiments as described and shown. Many variations thereof are possible within the framework of the invention set forth in the claims.

Thus, other constructions may be used for, for example, the refrigerator, the bypass column 5 may be constructed in a different manner, for example as described in EP 1289874, and the scroll module may be omitted. Cooler 2 can be finished differently, just like the bypass column. The first and second channels may surround all or part of each other, for example, be placed concentrically, or a channel may be provided as partitions for circulation of the cooled air. Instead of two fans, only one fan can be used. In addition, other pumping or blowing means for circulating the cooling medium may be used, such as pumps, blowers and the equivalent. These and other modifications may be made without falling outside the structured invention set forth in the claims.
