Definitions

  • This invention relates to an equipment for the quick cooling of liquids in containers.
  • the invention relates to a frigorific equipment intended to cool in very short times the content of one or more bottles, whether it is wine, beer, sparkling wine, liqueur, etc.
  • the restaurants, hotels and bars usually are provided with iceboxes capable of cooling these liquids in fairly short times, but these latter are never so short as to satisfy the customers which are waiting for the wine, liqueur or any other drink just ordered and which is found to be very far from having the right temperature at which it should be served.
  • the object of the invention is to provide an equipment intended to obviate such disadvantages by allowing to cool in very short times any drink contained in a bottle, even in case of having to produce in the liquid thermal variations of many degrees.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide an equipment which could be intended to be used not only in public ambients, but also by privates, without having to change anything in the characteristics of the invention independently from the uses to which it is intended.
  • the invention proposes to provide an equipment for the quick cooling of liquids contained in containers, characterized in comprising a tank, whose dimensions are capable of containing at least a bottle, filled with a liquid for cooling the drink contained in the bottle, the cooling liquid contained in the tank being lapped by means which produce the cooling thereof.
  • a tank 11 Disposed above the base 10 is a tank 11, along whose inner walls a serpentine 12 extends.
  • the tank 11 has a step 13 to allow inserting therein low bottles 14 (of the type of beer bottles) and high bottles 15 (of the type of wine or sparkling wine bottles).
  • the tank 11 contains also a cooling liquid 16 intended to cool the drink contained in the bottles 14 and 15.
  • the tank may be closed at its upper portion by a easily removable cover.
  • the serpentines 12 there will circulate a gas of the type of freon or the like, whilst the liquid 16 contained in the tank will have to be a glycol or alcohol or another liquid having a freezing point of less than -30° and preferably less than -50°.
  • the case of the vodca is a limit case, inasmuch as the wines, the beer, the sparkling wines and most part of the other drinks which are served cold must be subjected to temperature variations from 5 to 20 degrees on the average, depending on the temperature at which they have to be served and on the temperature which they have in the ambient prior to their introduction into the equipment.
  • the equipment according to the invention may also be provided with timers which maintain in operation the motor only for the time required for the liquid to reach the desired temperature, as well as timers for signalling the time of maintaining the various bottles 14 and 15 in the tank, in order to avoid that their stay in the tank for a period of time longer than the required time makes drop the dring temperature below the correct value, which in some cases could give rise to their freezing and, consequently, the burst of the bottle.
