Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The The invention relates to a device for tempering or tempered holding wine or other dispensers beverage hoses

TECHNOLOGICAL BACKGROUND

Wine- or other dispensable beverage hoses have long been in cubic cardboard boxes put on the market. The cardboard boxes are first closed smoothly. Inside is the wine or Beverage hose in the form of a mostly coated Aluminum existing bag with a welded in it Nozzle. The use is carried out by tear the carton serving of beverage tube at a pre-punched point and threading out the nozzle the cardboard interior and insertion into one of the Kartonagenumwüllung previously broken breakthrough zone. The nozzle can then operated from outside the cardboard packaging become. Before putting the can still complete closed or already prepared in tap position Unit in a refrigerator tempered to target temperature become. Because such made-up beverage hoses a capacity between usually about 1 and 5 liters usually they are not emptied at once. The Emptying can last for many hours or even days extend. Therefore, it is necessary to temper the arrangement Always keep in the tempering device, like a refrigerator, to deliver. As it is both in the beverage hose as well as the cardboard packaging around a disposable item acts, prohibits cost reasons, a heat insulation jacket.

PRESENTATION OF THE INVENTION

From that Based on the invention, the object is that tempering or tempered holding wine or other dispensers To facilitate beverage tubes. To the solution This object is achieved by a device having the features of the claim 1 proposed. Accordingly, the invention is based on the idea, the filled beverage hose from its cardboard packaging to take it out completely and put it in an insulating jacket use of the dispensing valve, wherein the beverage hose disposed within a heat exchanging support container which is an air jacket to the inner surface of the Isolierummantelung maintains.

On This way, the beverage temperature can be very long in one pleasant temperature range are kept without the beverage tube and / or its enclosing him into a separate Temperature control device, such as a refrigerator set got to. Rather, the device serves as the beverage over for many hours at an acceptable drinking tapping device, which is accessible quickly and without complications.

When the device is actively cooled, the desired beverage temperature can basically be maintained without time restriction. An active cooling can be installed in the insulating jacket at any point, that is, in the bottom area, in the lid area or in the side wall area. For this purpose, preferably active cooling modules can be used, as they are known from WO 2006/087148 known for so-called party kegs.

By a division of the insulating sheath into a cover part and in a bottom part will be the insertion of the usually highly flexible Drinking hose and in particular the positioning of the dispensing valve simplified.

If the beverage tube receiving support container is removable from the device, thereby the exchange especially simplified against a new beverage hose. Especially can then another with a filled beverage hose filled support container for rapid pre-cooling be put in a refrigerator while another support tube filled with beverage hose is in use in the device. Furthermore Can in case of removable support box instead a beverage hose and a so-called party keg be inserted into the device. Accordingly, a Supporting container according to the invention maximum the outer dimensions of a suitable in the device Party barrel on.

A Multi-stage cooling facilitates actively cooled Devices whose operation, for. B. by a preselection option for beer cooling, soft drink cooling, White wine cooling and red wine tempering. To this Ways are tempered for each with the device or tempered drink on the for brought the beverage type optimal consumption temperature or held.

To avoid heat or cold losses, the nozzle is inserted in a sufficiently sealed and sufficiently mechanically stable manner in the Isolierummantelung. This is preferably done by means of a plug or sliding connection between the casing and the nozzle, in special in the collar area. Since the manufacturers of beverage hoses can use differently sized or differently designed dispensing valves, an adapter is preferably provided, which is adapted to the outside of the opening of the insulating sheath and inside has a receptacle adapted to a particular nozzle.

Of the Support can in very different ways be designed. In any case, it allows a simple heat exchange between the beverage hose and the interior of the insulating jacket respectively between the insulating jacket and the support container limited air jacket. The thickness of such an air jacket can be changed within wide limits - depending on the desired Quality of the thermal insulation effect. When actively cooled Devices serves the air jacket as a circulation space for the tempering fluid. The heat exchanging wall of the Support container can z. B. a perforated plastic wall or a latticed wall.

Around the nozzle through the wall of the support tank to be able to pass, so that the nozzle then in the Isolierummantelung for the purpose of Getränkezapfens can be used, has the support tank a suitable opening. This is preferably from a Einfädelschlitz supplements, which the insertion of the Beverage hose in the support tank simplified. This threading slot is in the use position in Essentially extends vertically when the beverage tube be inserted from above into the support container should and the nozzle, as usual, in the field of lower end of the beverage hose is located.

The the aforementioned and the claimed and in the embodiments described to be used according to the invention Components are subject in size, shape design, Material selection and technical conception no special exceptions, so that the selection criteria known in the field of application unrestricted Application can find more details, features and advantages of the subject invention will become apparent from the Subclaims, as well as from the following description the accompanying drawing and table, in the - example - a Embodiment of a device for tempering a Wine hose with dispensing valve is shown.

2 the same tempering in vertical section in a rotated by 90 ° degree view (section along the line II-II gem. 1 such as

3 an alternative embodiment of a heat-exchanging support container in perspective view.

DETAILED FIGURE DESCRIPTION

As can be seen from the drawing, there is an insulating sheath according to the invention 10 from a lower jacket module 10B in which, in the present case, a per se known thermoelectric cooling module is located ( WO 2006/087148 ) and upper jacket module 10A , the sufficiently close to the lower jacket module 10B can be put on. Between two jacket modules is a known recording 13 for a nozzle 1A one of a coated aluminum foil existing wine hose known per se 1 , Inside the insulating jacket 10 extends approximately vertically a support container 100 with a heat exchanging wall, in the illustrated embodiment of a relatively thin-walled plastic material with perforations 1000 or a grid insert ( 3 ) with grid openings 1000 consists. In the illustrated embodiment, both support containers are completely open at the top and bottom with a heat-exchanging bottom and completely removable from the Isolierummantelung, the outer dimensions correspond approximately to those of a conventional party keg against which the support container with beverage hose and nozzle is interchangeable. For simplified threading of the dispensing valve are the support container with approximately vertical Einfädelschlitzen 100E provided at the lower end in an opening 1006 open, which in the assembled state approximately aligned with the nozzle receptacle 13 located in the insulating jacket. If the size or collar design of the dispensing valve of different beverage hoses and / or party kegs are different, suitably shaped adapter pieces 10F between the recording 13 the insulating jacket 10 and the collar of the dispensing valve 1A used.

The outer surface 100A of the support tank 100 bounded radially inward an air jacket 18A inside the insulating jacket 10 , wherein this air jacket radially outward from the inner surface 10 ' the Isolierummantelung is limited.
