Description

Be used for-store up the edge of fat

Technical field

The present invention relates to a kind of novel edge of using with an alcoholic beverage bucket or keg of being suitable for.

Background technology

Storage wine is known, such as the packed grape wine that is stored in the cardboard type container.In addition, using a sack that inserts a barrel is known to be used at the sack lager beer.Use such barrel of beer to become more and more general, as the constituent elements that inserts a domestic beer distribution device.The family expenses distribution device typically has one or more doors, and bucket inserts device by this door.Distribution device mainly wishes to be used for family kitchen, is suitable for making himself being easy to be placed on the Kitchen table end face.Because in most of families, the space of Kitchen table end face is starved of, so this device construction becomes to make this device required space minimum on the dining table end face.Therefore, be used to admit the clearance of bucket little in the device, make bucket insertion and remove very inconvenient.

In order to make space requirement further complicated, bucket typically provides upper limb and the lower edge that extends beyond bucket.When bucket piles up to be used for shipment and when storage over each other, these edges are used for supporting and the protection bucket.Rectangle when these edges have side-looking, and have a ring form.It is very difficult that these edges make that bucket fits into device, because between the hole of bucket and edge and device very little clearance is arranged.Therefore, needs improve bucket insertion device or shift out from device.

Summary of the invention

The present invention relates to a kind of edge that is used for a storage fat, wherein this edge has the tapered profiles of bevelled outer edge part so that side-looking to be provided.Especially, the edge at top that is typically attached to bucket has tapered profiles.The inclined side at edge part has shortened the long-diagonal direction of bounding edge and bucket effectively.This allows bucket and edge tilt and rotation, so that bucket and edge insert distribution device and shift out from distribution device.In addition, tapered profiles is convenient to the connection of a tap adapter of device to bucket.

The edge that has the tapered side end out line has and is suitable for the fixing ring frame part of bucket.This edge also comprises a pair of relative alar part that partly extends beyond bucket from frame.Each alar part has a core and two side parts, and this side partly has an outer edge part that tilts to the frame part from the core at edge, so that bevelled effect to be provided.

In one embodiment, the outer edge part at edge has a recessed predetermined bend radius, and thus, outer edge part is divided from central division usually and tilted to the frame part.

In one embodiment, in order to help moving of bucket, each core at edge has a slot, and this hole defines the one handle part at core.In addition, core can have a support limit part that has a multistage ridge part, helps to pile up the bucket of placing in the mode and supporting other one.Alar part is considered to common extension of the edge direction identical with the ring frame part that centers on bucket and bending.Should be appreciated that the edge can comprise a plastic material, and bucket can comprise a metallic material and be preferably a corrosion-resistant steel.

According to an aspect of the present invention, provide an edge that is used to store up fat.This edge has a pair of relative alar part that is suitable for partly extending beyond from frame with the ring frame partial sum that bucket is fixed together bucket.Each alar part has a middle body and two side parts, and wherein, each side partly has divides an outer edge part that tilts to the frame part from central division.

Description of drawings

In order to understand essence of the present invention and purpose better, can be with reference to appended scheme drawing, wherein:

Fig. 1 is the front elevation according to a domestic beer distribution device of the present invention;

Fig. 2 is a lateral plan of domestic beer distribution device;

Fig. 3 is a block diagram at edge of the present invention;

Fig. 4 is a lateral plan at edge of the present invention; And

Fig. 5 is the front elevation with the fat at edge of the present invention.

The specific embodiment

Referring to Fig. 1 and 2, a domestic beer distribution device, utensil or unit 10 have been shown.Distribution device 10 is main wishes to be used for family kitchen, but also can be used between odd job, garage, family bar, standee city bus etc.Although preferred embodiment relates to dispense beer, selectively, can distribute soda or other alcoholic beverage by distribution device 10.

The dispensing tap 14 that domestic beer distribution device 10 has an antetheca 12 and gives prominence in antetheca 12 fronts.One drip pan 16 is also outstanding in the front of antetheca 12, and is suitable for being supported in the opening glass jug 18 under the dispensing tap 14.Domestic beer distribution device 10 also has a bottom 21, is suitable for being placed on the dining table end face in the kitchen.Antetheca 12 forms an extendible portion of two pivotal side walls 20, and these two pivotal side walls 20 can move between closure and open position, to allow in the shell with bucket 22 (shown in Fig. 2 dotted line) insertion domestic beer distribution device 10.The shell of domestic beer distribution device 10 also comprises a roof 24 and a rear wall 26.Rear wall 26 has a grid 30, the wind circulation that this grid 30 allows in the domestic beer distribution device 10.One electric wire 32 extends through the rear wall 26 of device 10, providing to the connection of a main power source, thereby supplies power to the electric components of settling in the distribution device 10.Selectively, can use one 12 volts of direct supply inputs.

Distribution device 10 has a cooling system 23 that is positioned at bucket 22 back lower places, is suitable for making it when barrel of beer 22 is placed in the distribution device 10 cooling.Distribution device 10 also comes dispense beer by a compressed-air supply (not shown).

Referring to Fig. 2 and 5, bucket 22 is shown as has a upper limb 40 and a lower edge 42.Lower edge 42 has a rectangular profile as shown in Figure 5.Upper limb 40 has a tapered profiles as shown in Figure 5.The top 38 of bucket 22 provides a groove 39, and a lower part 37 of bucket 22 also provides a groove 39.Each

edge

40 and 42 all has a flange 41 that inwardly points to, and this flange 41 is suitable for slipping over bucket 22 and is bited into fixed relationship with groove 39.

According to the present invention, upper limb 40 provides the conical surface 52 of curve, thereby as shown in Figure 5, from the edge 42 and a bucket base angle of 22 to the catercorner length of bevelled relative angle, be that the catercorner length at two edges of rectangle is little than the side profile of two opposite ends that are attached to bucket.

Upper limb 40 has a ring frame part 44 of supporting flange 41, thereby it is fixing with bucket to encircle frame part 44.A pair of relative alar part 46 exceeds bucket 22 from frame part 44 and stretches out.Alar part is shaped as curve, and extends jointly with ring frame part 44.Each alar part has a core 48 and two side parts 50.Each side part 50 has an outward flange 52, and this outward flange 52 divides 48 to tilt to the frame part 44 with a radius of curvature that is recessed into from central division, so that bevelled effect to be provided.

Each core at edge 40 has a slot 60, and this hole 60 defines in order to be convenient to the bucket 22 one handle parts 62 that move.In addition, core 48 has a support limit part 70 that has a multistage ridge part 72.Support limit part 70 and multistage ridge part 72 to cooperate jointly, so as in order to store or to load and transport one on another, pile up bucket.Especially, a corresponding piled barrels that will have a lower edge that is similar to lower edge 42 is stacked on the upper limb 40.For the lower edge 42 of bucket, the multistage ridge part 72 of upper limb 40 is suitable for providing an internal support, and the support limit part 70 of upper limb 40 is suitable for providing a level support.

Edge 40 preferably comprises a moulding material that is molded as a separate part.
