Definitions

  • the present invention refers to a container device including a first space, which is arranged to house a first fluid, and a second space, which is arranged to house a second fluid.
  • the invention also refers to a plant for the distribution of a mixture of fluids, including at least one container device and a distribution device, and a method for the distribution of fluids.
  • beverages are distributed in small packages, such as metal sheet cans, preferably of aluminum, plastic bottles and glass bottles.
  • packages such as metal sheet cans, preferably of aluminum, plastic bottles and glass bottles.
  • Such a distribution system has several obvious disadvantages.
  • One such package is a relatively large part of the total product, which means that the package together with the beverage contain therein is relatively space requiring.
  • the distributed product in addition becomes relatively heavy.
  • This distribution system also means that the beverage is ready for use when it is filled in the package. Also this fact contributes to the space requiring character of the product.
  • the costs for the package is relatively high in relation to the total costs for the product. Frequently, the beverage may be produced to lower costs than the package in which the beverage is distributed.
  • the beverage is delivered as a concentrate, often called syrup.
  • the main part of the liquid content of the ready beverage is thereby obtained in situ, i.e. where the beverage is served, such as tap water via the municipal water conduit system.
  • such beverages frequently contain carbon dioxide, which according to the first distribution system is supplied to the beverage already when it is packed.
  • carbon dioxide is added in connection with the serving opportunity and this carbon dioxide is provided in pressure vessels which thus must be located where the beverage is to be served.
  • the second distribution system thus requires a plant which permits mixing of at least three included beverage components, namely water, carbon dioxide and concentrate. Consequently, the plant has to be able to receive a plurality of containers for concentrate of various beverages of the type soft drinks and mineral water, and a pressure vessel for carbon dioxide.
  • Such plants available today are relatively complex and dimensioned for the distribution of relatively large quantities of beverages. The available plants are thus in the first place intended for restaurants and larger serving locations.
  • One example of such a plant according to the second distribution system is disclosed in EP-A-802 253. This known plant operates completely according to the principles described above but has the design in such a way that it has a low weight and is to be used at smaller serving locations.
  • the fluids stored in the container device may be distributed and discharged to a user.
  • a plant may have a compact design suitable for the distribution of relatively small quantities of fluids, for instance in smaller serving locations, work places and at home.
  • the plant disclosed includes three manouvering keys 20, one for each container device 3.
  • manouvering one of the manovering keys 20, one of the container devices 3 is activated, wherein the closing valve 7 in question, the closing valve 13 in question and the closing valve 16 are opened.
  • carbon dioxide will be fed from the second space 5 to the tank 1, wherein carbonated water is fed from the tank 1 to the mixing nozzle 10 via the water conduit 15 at the same time as concentrate is fed from the first space 4 of the container device 3 in question to the mixing nozzle 10 via one of the conduits 12.
  • concentrate is mixed with the carbonated water, wherein the mixture is discharged to the glass 18.
  • the connecting members 31 and 32 include a schematically disclosed one way valve 35 and 36, respectively, which is closed in a rest state.
  • the valves 35 and 36 will be opened.
  • the valves 35 and 36 may keep the first space 4 and the second space 5, respectively, closed.
  • the container device 3 when the container device 3 is completely inserted in the space 25, the container device 3 will be in its active state, whereby the access passages are open.
  • Fig. 4 discloses schematically an example of a distribution device 26, which includes three container devices 3 for three different beverage concentrates.
  • the distribution device 26 may be arranged to receive less or more than three such container devices 3.
  • the container device may be oriented in another position than the one disclosed, for instance in such a way that the connecting members are located at the bottom surface of the container device.
