Definitions
- the invention relates to a device for carbonating and cooling of beverages, in particular of drinking water, with a beverage container in which a Karbonisiertechnik is housed with an external CO 2 connection, and with a cooling device.
- a vending machine with a serving for stockpiling, cooling and carbonation of drinking water container is known.
- a heat exchanger connected to a refrigeration unit is provided on the outside of the container.
- a CO 2 gas cushion is used above the drinking water level in the container.
- the discharge amount of cooled carbonated water is low in the described automaton.
- An object of the invention is to provide a device for the carbonation and cooling of beverages, with the larger quantities of drinks can be produced in a small footprint.
- the device for the carbonation and cooling of beverages has a cooling device and a beverage container, in which a Karbonisierritt is housed with an external CO 2 connection.
- the carbonating unit is arranged in a tubular inner container which is located inside the beverage container and has a carbonated beverage removal line at a first end and a connection to the outer beverage container at a second end.
- the Karbonisierritt contains a plurality of hollow volumes, which are acted upon via the external CO 2 connection with CO 2 and separated from a permeable for CO 2 gas but water-impermeable membrane of the beverage in the interior of the inner container.
- This arrangement makes it possible to carbonize larger quantities of beverage and can be operated in the flow.
- the carbonating unit in an inner container is arranged, passes in the only pre-cooled beverage from the outer beverage container, the beverage is very quickly enriched with CO 2 .
- the inner container is disposed in the beverage container such that it is concentrically surrounded by cooled but not yet carbonated beverage. This allows best cooling inside.
- the hollow volumes are preferably the interiors of hollow fiber membranes. These have a large membrane surface and therefore allow a particularly rapid and thorough enrichment of the beverage with CO 2 .
- a silver filter for disinfecting the beverage is provided in the connection between the outer beverage container and the inner container. This improves the quality of the drink, which offers advantages especially when using ordinary tap water.
- a pressure gauge for determining a differential pressure between supplied and withdrawn drink is preferably provided in each case at a beverage supply line and at the withdrawal line.
- a display device serves to display the filter state determined from the differential pressure.
- the cooling device advantageously contains a thermoelectric cooling element.
- a thermoelectric cooling element cools particularly effectively and has a good cooling performance even with larger removal quantities.
- Coolant unit can be omitted, the device is particularly compact. It also allows very quiet operation.
- a heat sink is thermally connected to the thermo-electric cooling element and a fan is provided which cools the heat sink.
- the efficient heat dissipation improves the cooling performance and makes the device even more compact.
- the cooling device is flanged to an outside of the beverage container. This not only enables efficient cooling but also easy installation and maintenance.
- a second line connection is provided for the removal of cooled but non-carbonated beverage. This allows the device to be used simultaneously for providing and cooling carbonated as well as still beverages.
- the line connection for cooled, non-carbonated beverage is also connected via the silver filter with the outer beverage container.
- the beverage container is preferably thermally insulated.
- the apparatus 10 for cooling and carbonating beverages shown in FIG. 1 in longitudinal section has a beverage container 11 with a thermal insulating layer 22.
- the beverage container 11 Via a supply line 18, the beverage container 11 is filled with fresh drink, preferably water.
- a pressure regulator 32 is arranged at the supply line.
- the supply line may e.g. be connected to the drinking water network or with a water tank.
- a tubular inner container 12 In the beverage container 11, a tubular inner container 12 is used, which is connected at its lower end to the outer beverage container 11.
- the device is held together by four clamping screws 26.
- a channel 24 In the bottom 23 of the beverage container, a channel 24 is present, which is connected to the inner container 12 and laterally via an oblique bore 25 a with the outer beverage container 12.
- In the channel is a silver filter 27 for disinfecting the drink.
- an exchangeable Karbonisiertechnik 13 is inserted in the inner container. Via a CO 2 supply line 15 with pressure regulator 33, the carbonating unit 13 is supplied with CO 2 .
- Into the inner container 12 opens a sampling line 16 for the removal of carbonated beverage.
- an electrical 2/2-way valve 30 is provided.
- a second line connection 17 for removing uncarbonated, cooled beverage is additionally provided laterally of the inner container 12, which is also provided with an electric 2/2-way valve 31.
- the removal line 17 is connected via an inclined bore 25 a to the channel 24 in the bottom 23 of the beverage container 11.
- a another silver filter 27b At the mouth of the oblique bore is a another silver filter 27b.
- the bottom 23 may be opened to replace the carbonating unit 13 and to change or clean the silver filters 27, 27b.
- thermo-electric cooling element 14 On the left in Figure 1 side wall of the beverage container 11, a thermo-electric cooling element 14 is flanged.
- Thermo-electric cooling elements are known per se and work according to the Peltier effect by one side of the cooling element cools by an electric current flow, while the other is heated. Such Peltier coolers are used for a variety of applications.
- a heat sink 20 On the warm side of the cooling element 14, a heat sink 20 is thermally coupled, which is cooled by a fan 20 with air.
- An electrical control 19 controls cooling element 14 and fan 20 to ensure a constant low temperature in the beverage container 11.
- the side wall of the beverage container 11 is made of brass.
- the carbonating unit contains a plurality of so-called hollow fiber membranes.
- the hollow fibers consist of a semipermeable membrane of polymer or ceramic material. Gases can diffuse through the membrane while retaining liquids.
- the hollow fiber membranes are acted upon in the interior via the CO 2 supply line 15 and the pressure regulator 33 under constant pressure with CO 2 gas.
- the CO 2 diffuses through the hollow fiber membranes into the tubular inner container 12 and dissolves in the beverage therein. Due to the large surface area of the many hollow-fiber membranes, the beverage is very quickly enriched with CO 2 .
- the carbonating unit 13 can be operated with low CO 2 pressure. As the solubility of CO 2 under pressure is higher, under pressure carbonated beverages foam heavily on removal. this will by the use of the hollow fiber membrane carbonator, which can be operated at low pressure, largely prevent.
- the supply line 18 as already mentioned fresh drink supplied.
- This can be, for example, drinking water from a drinking water line connected to the supply line.
- the cooling element 14 the beverage is cooled in the Vorbeiströmen. Only the drink cooled in this way passes via the connecting line 121 with the silver filter 27 into the inner container 12. As a result, the beverage is well pre-cooled before it enters the carbonating unit 13 in the interior of the inner container 12. Since the solubility of CO 2 in cold water is higher, the enrichment is improved by this structure over conventional devices.
- the silver filter 27 serves to kill germs contained in the supplied water. It consists of a fine-meshed silver or silver-coated fabric. Coarse particles, such as washed-out limescale from the water supply, are also retained in the silver filter 27. The silver filter 27 can therefore clog after some time. Therefore, a display device (not shown) for displaying the filter state is provided.
- a display device for displaying the filter state is provided.
- in the supply line 18 and in the extraction line 16 are each a pressure gauge, by means of which the differential pressure between supplied and withdrawn drink is determined. The worse the silver filter 27 is continuous, the higher the differential pressure. If the differential pressure exceeds a tolerable threshold, it is indicated that the silver filter must be replaced or cleaned. Cleaning or replacement of the silver filter 27 can then be done via the bottom 23.
- the device 10 is shown in Figure 2 in a cross section.
- the beverage container 11 of the device 10 has a square profile.
- the concentric arranged in the beverage container 11 inner container 12, however, has a round profile.
- the carbonating unit 13 is inserted with hollow fiber membranes.
- the inner container 12, the outer container 11 and accordingly also the Karbonisiertechnik 13 also have any other profile.
- the line connection 17 for the removal of uncarbonated, cooled beverage is shown, which is connected via the silver filter 25 (not shown) to the beverage container 11. With long clamping screws 26, the device 10 is held together.
- the side of the beverage container 11 of the Peltier cooler 14 is flanged with screws 28.
- the heat sink 20 is screwed with screws 29 on the Peltier cooler 14.
- Two fans 21 cool the heat sink 20 with air.
- the whole device is housed in a stable, compact housing 34 with a rectangular profile made of sheet steel.
