Description

Device for making carbonated beverages, in which Liquid feed line, vent line, carbon dioxide feed and discharge of the saturated liquid can be controlled by a common tap. The present The invention relates to a device for producing carbonated beverages, at which liquid feed line, vent line, carbon dioxide feed and Carbon dioxide discharge of a mixing vessel through a common tap being controlled. The new thing is that the tap next to the channel for liquid supply and atmospheric pressure discharge a channel for high pressure liquid discharge owns.

In Figs. I to 5 an embodiment of the device is shown, in which Fig. i is a vertical section, Fig. 2 a cross section and Fig. 3 to 5 cross sections through the cock vortex in different positions of the same illustrated.

The device then consists of a vertical hollow cylinder a, its filling and emptying through a cock located below the cylinder b is operated with three adjacent channels. At the bottom of the cylinder is the distributor or shower provided with a number of fine holes c, through which the entering carbonic acid, broken down into fine rays, from below is blown into the water. The whole rests on the hollow foot d, which is at the same time takes over the sound absorption for the ventilation. The connection to the carbon dioxide bottle takes place at o, the one to the water pipe at s. For regulating the water flow the valve e is also provided, which of the. Float r is controlled and then interrupts the flow of water when the water reaches the height of the float r has reached. But since the water inflow now takes place with the vent line open and at the same time controlled by the float valve e, so it is for the regularity the water filling completely irrelevant whether the water inflow is almost pressureless for example from a vessel next to the apparatus or from one under high pressure standing water pipe takes place. Fig. R shows the device in the outlet position or before the filling begins.

If the hand lever f is turned clockwise so that the vortex assumes the position shown in Fig. 3, the water entering through the ball check valve ä can pass through the channel h and the recess i. in the vortex, also enter the cylinder through the open valve e. The air contained therein is through the pipe k or the channel k, further through the recess k; in the vertebra and through the canal, d is pushed out into the hollow foot. From there it escapes through the holes to the outside.

Has run in so much water that with the help of the float r that If valve e is clearly audible, the hand lever f is turned a little further, until the position (Fig. 4) is reached. The ventilation channel k closes first and then opens the carbonic acid channel o, so that carbonic acid enters the shower-like Enter cabbage and saturate the water with carbonic acid while increasing the pressure can. The influx of carbonic acid into the cylinder a continues until the The pressure set on the reducing valve of the carbon dioxide bottle has been reached in cylinder a is. The ball check valve is also activated by the possible overpressure of the carbon dioxide closed and prevents the water from flowing back into the supply line.

Now the hand lever, if high pressure dispensing is required for the purpose of filling the bottle, is turned even further to the end position (Fig. high pressure channel t is brought into connection with the outlet spout p, or, if serving at atmospheric pressure is possible, the hand lever is returned to its original position (Fig. r), whereby the carbonic acid channel o closes first. The vent channel k then opens so that the excess pressure of the carbonic acid present in the upper part of the cylinder can escape into the hollow base d or into the open. Immediately thereafter, the water channel h is interrupted and the cylinder a is then brought into connection through the recess i with the outlet pipe p, from which the finished water now runs out. In this case, it is essential to blow off the excess pressure before serving; if this were not the case, when the carbonated water was poured into open vessels, it would release the bound carbonic acid in a few seconds and become completely dead.

The device is extremely easy to operate and is suitable for both for innkeepers as well as for households. All that is required is the connection to irb nd a water vessel with a suitable gradient or to the water pipe.
