Definitions

  • the invention relates to a dispensing device according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • This is particularly suitable for tapping fresh milk, but can also be used for other milk products such as cream, buttermilk, whey, or for fruit juices, which also have cooling and stirring certain distances, of course, adapted to the respective drink.
  • the invention is only described in connection with the preferred embodiment for fresh milk.
  • Such a dispensing device is already known from US Pat. No. 1 925 120, the filling device and control device being installed in a stationary cooling housing into which two movable, can-shaped storage containers can also be set and connected to the filling device and control device. After emptying, the storage containers can be separated again and removed from the cooling housing for cleaning and filling purposes. Manufacture and operation of the cooling housing represent a relatively large outlay, and the known device also constantly requires a large amount of space.
  • DE-PS 628 648 also discloses a milk can that can be set in a cooled bar table, through the cover of which the outlet pipe of a mechanically actuated diaphragm pump is led out. Obviously, with this known milk jug neither a metered tapping nor an automatic control of the tapping process is possible.
  • the invention is intended to provide an easy-to-produce and operate dispensing device which allows the use of an open sales cooling device which is usually already present in shops for cooling the milk or the like present in the dispensing device, the dispensing device not being used appropriately only very light and easy to clean, but should also be well protected against damage during transport to and from the dairy or filling station.
  • Existing cooling devices can be, for example, refrigerated display cases and freezers or refrigerated shelves that are sufficiently high.
  • the sensitive parts of the dispensing device which are at risk during transport namely the filling device which is essentially arranged at the opening of the storage container and on the outside thereof, and the control device which automatically controls the flow of a dispensing process and actuates the agitator at regular intervals, can be removed from the storage container in one movement, so that the storage container, which is expediently designed in the form of a large milk can, can be carried and handled comfortably and without great consideration for damage by an operator. It only contains a small breast pump and an agitator, which do not significantly increase its weight. It is delivered from the dairy in a cleaned, milk-filled and cooled state, its opening being expediently closed by a lid.
  • the filling device and the electrical control device are placed or connected, as a result of which the milk dispenser is ready for operation.
  • the storage container which preferably has a handle or the like for actuation, is inserted into a cooling device which is open at the top and is present in almost every retail store.
  • the pump ensures that the milk is conveyed upward through the opening into the filling device, which is preferably arranged on the side of the storage container and is suitable for setting a standardized milk bottle.
  • the storage container is preferably closed by a lid and lifted out of the cooling device.
  • the holding frame covers the opening of the storage container and carries the side filling station.
  • This holding frame is very easy to fix in a few steps by a releasable holding device, for example a strap with a tension lock according to claim 3, and can be as easy as which are removed.
  • the agitator and pump can be held on a plate which is detachably anchored in the storage container and can be removed together with the latter from the storage container.
  • the cleaning of the storage container is normally carried out with the plate, the agitator and the pump, in place.
  • the plate with the parts mentioned can be removed from the storage container at any time by a few hand movements, so that all parts of the device are easily accessible.
  • suitable pins and guides can be provided according to claim 5.
  • the forced placement in the correct orientation also ensures that the electrical and mechanical plug connections mentioned are precisely guided into one another.
  • corresponding lead-through parts are suitably anchored in the cover plate.
  • the electrical control device can also be connected directly to the holding frame, or else it can be attached to a separate location, for example on the wall or part of the cooling device, and connected to the storage container via electrical lines and plug connections.
  • the liquid-protected is fastened within a cover cap attached to the cover plate of the holding frame, so that the dispensing device is immediately ready for operation after the holding frame has been put on.
  • the control device can even remain permanently connected to the electrical network in this case as well. For safety reasons, however, it is preferably removed from the network at least during cleaning of the filling station or other parts.
  • the storage container shown in FIG. 1 is in the form of a milk can 10, preferably made of metal or plastic, with a bottom 12, an edge 16 projecting downwards on all sides from the bottom and resting on a base 14 and an upwardly open one from a neck 18 Formed opening 20.
  • the opening 20 is laterally offset against the vertical center of the storage container 10, so that the neck 18 on the left side in FIG. 1 merges straight into the side wall 22 of the storage container.
  • the neck has a thread 24 on its outside for screwing on a cover 26 provided with a corresponding internal thread (see FIG. 3).
  • guides 28 are provided on opposite sides in the form of vertical webs projecting from the neck 18 inwards.
  • the floor 12 is divided into a larger, higher section 32 and a small, slightly lower horizontal section 34.
  • the higher section 32 slopes downwards on all sides towards the lower section 34, so that milk residues collect in section 34 and can be pumped out from this point until the end.
  • the storage container 10 has a handle 38 on the upper side 36 drawn in toward the neck 18.
  • FIGS. 3 and 4 show the storage container with the parts that are constantly remaining in it, as it is transported from the retail store to the dairy in an empty state and from the dairy to the retail store in a cleaned and filled state.
  • the lid 26 is screwed onto the opening 20 in order to protect the inside of the storage container from contamination or to prevent the milk from splashing out of the filled storage container 10.
  • a flat support plate 40 is placed from above, which rests on the horizontal top of the support base 30 and fills the neck 18 with little play.
  • recesses 42 are provided in the edge of the support plate 40 at opposite points, which slide on the guides 28 when the same is inserted.
  • the support plate 40 contains a large number of openings 44 of different sizes in order to reduce the weight and to ventilate, and above all to pour out cleaning liquid from inside the storage container when cleaning the same. lt, two of these openings 44 are a vertical support rod 46 and a tube 48 containing electrical lines through upper and lower Spring clips 50 and 52 anchored. At the lower end near the deepest bottom section 34, an agitator 54 which can be driven via the electrical lines in the tube 48 is held. An additional riser pipe 56 connected to a pump 55 arranged near the bottom section 34 and a second pipe 58 containing electrical lines are anchored by two further openings 44 through upper and lower spring clips 50 and 52, respectively. At the upper end of the pipes 48 and 58 containing the electrical lines, not shown, parts of electrical plug connections 60 are attached. After being inserted into the storage container, the support plate 40 is fixed by a semicircular clamping spring 61 spread on the inside of the neck.
  • FIG. 6 The part of the dispensing device remaining in the retail store when the empty or newly filled storage container 10 is transported is shown in FIG. 6.
  • This part has a support frame, generally designated 62, which consists of an upper horizontal cover plate 64 and a vertical side plate 66 integral therewith. At the lower end of the side plate 66, an approximately vertically protruding drip tray 68 is integrally formed.
  • the cover plate 64 is penetrated by a filling tube 70, which is semicircularly bent in the upper part and opens down at both ends, and two vertical pipe connections 74 containing electrical lines 72, which are firmly anchored in the cover plate 64.
  • a cap 76 At the inner end of the filling pipe 70, a cap 76, which is part of a mechanical plug connection and is open at the bottom, is attached.
  • 74 parts of electrical plug connections, each in the form of a plug 78 are provided at the lower ends of the pipe sockets.
  • a cover cap 80 is attached to the top of the cover plate 64 and forms a liquid-protected interior 82 with the cover plate 64.
  • an electrical control device 84 (not shown in more detail) for the operating sequence of the dispensing system, which is known per se to the person skilled in the art, as is explained below, is fastened to the cover cap 80.
  • the control device 84 is connected via the electrical lines 72 to the plugs 78 and via a further electrical line 86 to a proximity initiator 88 which passes through the cover cap 80 at the side.
  • downwardly projecting pins 90 are fastened at two diametrically opposite points, which have vertical recesses 92 on their outside in the lower part.
  • the filling station On the outside of the side plate 66 of the holding frame 62, the filling station, generally designated 94, is formed above the drip tray 68.
  • the filling station 94 has vertical bars 96 for a milk bottle 97 to be inserted into the filling station 94 (see FIG. 7), which stand parallel to one another vertically from the side plate 66, lateral holding bars 98 for the milk bottle 97 and an optical fill level sensor 102, known per se and not connected to the electrical control device 84 and located near the upper opening 100 of the milk bottle 97, which detects the completed filling of the milk bottle 97 by optical scanning along the line 104 and via the control device 84 switches off the pump 55.
  • One of the standing rods (92 ') is pivotably articulated about a horizontal axis 106 near the side plate 66 and is rigidly connected to an upwardly angled contact lever 108.
  • the contact lever is normally, i. H. without a milk bottle 97 set in the filling station, pressed by a spring (not shown) or the like with a contact located at its upper end against a contact of the proximity initiator 88 cooperating therewith.
  • the stand rod 96 'rigidly connected to it stands with its outer end obliquely upward above the level of the other stand rods 96.
  • the standing rod 96 ' is pressed down parallel to the other standing rods 96 and the contact lever 108 is removed from the initiator 88.
  • the cover cap 80 is to both. Provided sides with handles 110 for handling the holding frame 62. If a freshly filled storage container 10 is delivered from the dairy or is removed from a cooled supply, its opening 20 is first exposed by unscrewing the lid 26. The holding frame 62 is then placed on the storage container 10 by gripping the handles 110 in such a way that the arrangement according to FIG. 7 results.
  • the cover plate 64 covers the opening 20 and the guides 28 provided on the neck 18 engage in the downwardly open recesses 92 of the pins 90 which are downward from the cover plate 64.
  • the plugs 78 located on the pipe socket 74 are automatically inserted into the socket-like electrical connecting parts 60 at the upper end of the pipes 48 and 58.
  • a mechanical plug-in connection for the supply of milk by means of the pump 55 into a milk bottle 97 set in the filling station 94 is produced by the cap 76 at the inner end of the filling tube 70, which overlaps the open upper end of the riser tube 56.
  • the side plate 66 of the holding frame 62 comes to rest on a flat section provided for this purpose on the outside of the storage container 10.
  • the holding frame 62 is adequately fixed for the duration of the operation until the storage container 10 is emptied.
  • the pump is activated via the proximity initiator 88 and the electrical control device 84 until it is switched off again by the filling sensor 102.
  • the control device 84 ensures that, from time to time, depending on the filling with milk or another drink at different time intervals, the stirrer is started in order to cream the milk, skin formation or deposition of fruit components from juices, etc. to avoid. Since the entire dispensing device is inserted into a cooling device which is already present and is open at the top, adequate cooling is ensured without any special device provided for this purpose.
  • the tension lock 114 is released and the holding frame 62 is removed by gripping the handles 110.
  • the electrical plug connections 60, 78 and the mechanical plug connection 76 are released automatically. While the parts of the device shown in FIG. 6 remain in the retail store, after the cover 26 has been put on, the empty storage container 10 can be transported to the dairy again, cleaned and refilled.
