Definitions

  • This invention relates to a cask or container for liquid under pressure, and is of the type defined in the preamble to claim 1.
  • French specification 1468211 discloses a housing welded, i.e. integrally secured to the wall of the cask at the bung hole outlet.
  • the housing serves to retain the extractor tube head and valve assembly comprising a self contained unit which drops into the housing complete and which is held by a threaded ring.
  • This ring also forms the coupling for the top fitting.
  • the arrangement requires a number of parts and furthermore the extractor tube complete with valve can be easily removed by unscrewing the threaded ring. It is necessary to arrange for removal of the valve assembly and tube for cleaning purposes, and refilling.
  • An object of this invention is to provide a simplified construction for mounting the valve seal and extractor tube in which no additional metal inserts or retainers are used, and which results in a construction which is substantially tamper-proof in that it is difficult without a special tool, to remove the extractor tube.
  • the use of a liner is dispensed with.
  • the extractor tube can be removed only by upsetting the sealing ring to remove same, and then removing the extractor tube which calls for the use of a special tool to engage the head.
  • the top wall 10 of the container has a bung hole 11 and a housing 12 is secured around the hole by welding.
  • the housing has a skirt portion 13 with an inturned flange 13a.
  • a bush 14 engages in the flange by screw threads and the extractor tube 15 is secured to the bush or preferably moulded thereto, the bush and tube being of synthetic plastic material.
  • a collar 16 seats on the upper surface of the flange 13a and a compression spring 20 extends between this collar and a cup seat 17 for a ring seal 18, so that unless the cask has been broached the seal engages by its periphery a seating 12a and the undercut top of the extractor tube head 15a of the tube 1 5.
  • the skirt is gapped, e.g. at 19, to allow gas under pressure to enter the cask after the dispenser head has been fitted and the cask broached this also depressing the ring seal against its spring loading.
  • the seal is upset and removed and the tube, head and bush unscrewed.
  • a special tool is required for this operation e.g. one to engage in the liquid outlet apertures 15b of the head.

1. Faß für Druckflüssigkeit mit einem Gehäuse (12), das an der oberen Wand (10) des Fasses an einem Zapflochausgang (11) befestigbar ist, um dort herum aufrecht zu stehen, wobei das Gehäuse (12) einen in das Faß hängenden Randteil (13) hat und ein Flüssigkeitsabziehrohr (15) abstützt, das durch das Gehäuse in das Innere des Fasses geht, wobei das Abziehrohr (15) einen in dem Gehäuse angeordneten Kopf (15a) und eine Ringdichtung (18) und eine Belastungsfeder (20) hat, die auch in dem Gehäuse um den Abziehrohrkopf herum angeordnet sind, wobei der Rand der Dichtung einen Sitz (12a) innerhalb und an dem oberen Ende des Gehäuses beaufschlagt, wobei das obere Ende des Abziehrohrkopfes (15a) in der Ringdichtung (13) aufgenommen ist, die in das Gehäuse gegen den Federdruck niedergedrückt werden kann, um Verbindungsgänge durch das Gehäuse zu dem Faß herzustellen, wobei der Rand (13) einen nach innen gebogenen Flansch (13a) hat, der von einer mit einem Schraubgewinde versehenen Hülse (14) lösbar beaufschlagt ist, die an dem Abziehrohr (15) befestigt ist, wobei das Gehäuse (12) integriert und nicht lösbar an der Faßwand (10) befestigt ist, wobei das Fenster an dem Sitz an dem oberen Ende des Gehäuses der Hülse (14) mit dem Abziehrohr (15) gestattet, nach dem Lösen von dem Flansch (13a) dort hindurchzugehen, wodurch das Abziehrohr ohne Abnahme des Gehäuses entfernt werden kann, dadurch gekennzeichnet, daß der Rand (13) einstückig mit dem Gehäuse (12) ist, wodurch das Abziehrohr (15) von dem Gehäuse (12) nur durch Abschrauben der Hülse (14) von dem Flansch (13a) das Randes (13) entfernt werden kann.
2. Faß nach Anspruch 1, wobei die Hülse (14) und das Flüssigkeitsabziehrohr (15) einstückig aus Kunststoff hergestellt ist.
3. Faß nach Anspruch 1 oder 2, wobei ein Bund (16) der Hülse (14) auf der oberen Oberfläche des inneren Teiles des Flansches (13a) sitzt, eine Druckfeder (20) sich zwischen dem Bund (16) und einem Bechersitzt (17) erstreckt, der sich an der Ringdichtung (18) abstützt, der Rand der Dichtung gegen den Sitz (12a) an dem oberen Ende des Gehäuses (12) federgespannt ist, der Rand (16) einen Durchmesser hat, der kleiner als der Öffnungsdurchmesser des Sitzes (12a) ist.
