CLASS 6 /. GROUP

The subject matter of the present invention relates to an embodiment of the water supply device the device for soaking used beer kegs according to patent 174900, namely the novelty of this device in that the rinse water used for soaking describes a cycle in such a way that that the water, .after it in the apparatus was given, is used to rinse a first barrel, then expires, and then a second barrel was washed, then drained again and a third one was flushed Barrel is used and so on. As with the main patent, the barrels are rotated in a circle, the cycle of the rinse water being that of the direction of rotation of the barrels opposite direction, it is achieved that at the feed point of the barrels the latter are treated with the most used, that is, the dirtiest water are, however, given a rinsing with increasingly pure water as the rotation progresses to experience a final treatment with the purest water at the point of delivery.

The subject matter of the invention is shown in one embodiment in the accompanying drawings.

Fig. Ι shows a longitudinal section through the device while

Fig. 2 is a plan view of the same. The spray nozzles a, which, as in the main patent, have turntables b for placing the barrels c , are connected by means of vertical pipes d to an annular container e which is open at the top and which is divided into cells by partitions. The spray nozzles are firmly connected to one another by an angle iron ring g. The latter can rotate around its center, which is achieved by the fact that he h by means of vertically and horizontally stationary rollers supported i on a second fixed angle iron ring k and is provided with a ring gear /, which is connected to a spur gear m is engaged. The latter can be used in any way, for. B. driven by pulley η . The rotation of the barrels takes place, as in the main patent, by gear rim 0 and gear wheels p.

Spray nozzles q for external sprinkling are switched on on the vertical pipes d. The cell container e carried by the tubes d expediently becomes so high. placed that the height of the tubes d produces the pressure desired for the spray nozzles. Half of the inclined bottom of the device is divided by ribs r into compartments, which are provided with drainage openings and these are again provided with sieve devices s. The latter are used to separate coarser

Impurities and can optionally be provided with heating devices for reheating the water. The drainage openings are now connected by pipes t to a cell pump u, from which fixed pipes ν lead to the cell container e. Each cell of this ring container e is provided with overflow pipes n>, which the latter come into operation if the next pipelines are blocked and thereby avoid disruptions, and also serve to draw the operator's attention to the otherwise invisible failure of an internal spray nozzle. A protective jacket χ prevents the water from splashing out beyond the device. The mode of operation of the device is as follows: Assuming that the device is filled with water, the water emerging from the spray nozzles and dripping from the barrels runs onto the bottom of the device respectively. in the compartments formed by the ribs r after the sieve devices s, from here through the tube t to the centrifugal pump u, which conveys the water through the tubes ν to the cell container e. The partitions of the latter, as well as the ribs r of the bottom are now arranged in such a relationship to each other that when the water enters the soaking apparatus, for example at r ', the same first resp. the sieve device s 'passes, then lengthened into the tube f, then taken up by the centrifugal pump u and conveyed through the tube ν' to the cell container e. From here the water runs through the pipe d 'to the spray nozzle in order to wash the first barrel here. Thereupon draining into the bottom compartment delimited by the ribs r "and r" ', the water passes the sieve s "and through the tube t" to the centrifugal pump u, is pumped up through the same through the tube ν "to the cell container, in order to get from here to run off through the pipe d ″ and to rinse the second barrel. Then the water runs back into the bottom compartment bounded by the ribs r '"and r, again takes its way through sieve, centrifugal pump and riser pipe and flows onto a third barrel, etc. While the barrels are now through spur gear m and ring gear / moves, to the right, i.e. in the clockwise direction, the water circulates in the opposite direction to the direction of the movement of the barrels, which shows that the barrels placed in the soaking apparatus at y are first treated with the dirtiest water, the flows off at y and then gradually receives increasingly pure water, so that the barrels that are lifted out of the apparatus at% receive the last rinse with the purest water the spray nozzles b has the advantage that when the water passes from the fixed pipes ν into the cell container e the water does not need to exert pressure, which avoids gate valves, taps, stuffing boxes, etc. The pipes ν are arranged in such a way that that part of the soaking apparatus on which there are no barrels (ie approximately the distance from y- \ - ■ Fig. 2 left side -) does not receive any water. Godfather τ-An Proverbs: 1. Embodiment of the Wasserzu guide device of the device for Soaking used beer kegs according to patent 174900, characterized in that that the rinse water describes one of the direction of movement of the barrels opposite circuit, such that after Rinsing of the first barrel, the water runs off, then a second barrel is rinsed, runs again, in order to then wash a third barrel, etc., with the barrels freshly placed in the apparatus first be rinsed with the dirtiest water, gradually increasing a treatment Experience with purer water and rinse with the purest one shortly before removing it from the apparatus Get water. 2. Embodiment of a device according to claim 1, characterized in that the bottom of the device is divided by ribs fr) into compartments, which by tubes fq) with the interposition of a multi-cell centrifugal pump fu) o. The like. Are in connection with an annular cell container (e) , from which the water is directed down to the barrels to be rinsed, in such a way that the water, for example in the first bottom compartment fr'-r ") , comes from here is conveyed out through a pipe ff), pump (u) and pipe fv ') to a cell of the container fe) , then flows down onto a barrel and into the second bottom compartment for "-r'") , whereupon the process of this The cycle is repeated and one barrel after the other is treated with the same water in this way. 3. Embodiment of a ring-shaped mentioned under 2.. Cell container, characterized in that the same is open at the top, so that the water does not need to exert any pressure when passing out of the pipes (v) , whereby slides, taps, stuffing boxes and the like are avoided. 4. The device according to claim 2, characterized by the arrangement of overflow pipes (w) on each cell of the annular container (e) for the purpose of avoiding malfunctions in the operation of the device due to clogging of the pipelines. 1 sheet of drawings.
