Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for metered dispensing of liquids, especially beers or waters, which are stored in a container, with a pipe opening into the interior of the container and with a pipe used in the pipeline and operable from the outside valve member through which the dispensing the liquid controlled from the pipeline is feasible.
  • Such a dispensing device for keg barrels is for example from the DE-G 90 06 681.2 refer to.
  • the device consists of a dispensing valve through which the beer stored in the respective keg barrel can be dispensed in a defined manner.
  • the nozzle is connected to a compressed gas tank, so that in the keg keg, for example, CO 2 gas, flows when operating the nozzle and thereby creates a CO 2 overpressure inside the keg barrel through which the keg barrel existing beer is pressed in the direction of the dispensing valve through a pipe.
  • the liquid present in the keg barrel mixes with the carbon dioxide, resulting in a head of foam when the beer is tapped.
  • carbon dioxide is added via a safety pressure reducing device from a compressed gas tank in the keg keg.
  • the invention relates to a container for the storage of liquids, in particular of beers, waters or the like, with a fixed outer wall, in particular for use in a device for the metered dispensing of liquids.
  • Such a container is for example from the DE 1 175 567 become known, in which a gas-containing liquid is expelled by means of a tap from the inflatable, so elastically deformable bag.
  • the bag is dimensioned such that it can expand in the entire space formed by the solid container.
  • pressure or propellant gases are permanently pressed, which act on the surface of the beer present in the bag.
  • the container can be connected to a dispensing system via pipelines.
  • the keg keg must be cleaned and disinfected before every new filling procedure in order to comply with the hygiene regulations. For this purpose, complex and expensive cleaning systems are necessary.
  • the costly cleaning work to meet the hygiene requirements in the reuse of conventional keg barrels should be avoided.
  • the supply and mixing of carbon dioxide should take place directly in the liquid, so that it can be enriched with a predeterminable amount of carbon dioxide during Auschenkens.
  • the containers are so-called disposable products, they no longer need to be cleaned in a time-consuming and cost-intensive manner. Rather, the bags can be inserted into conventional keg barrels to be subsequently filled with liquid. This filling process can also take place directly at the place where the liquid is to be dispensed. The dead weight of the containers is also extremely small in comparison with the conventional keg barrels, because these are essentially made of paper or cardboard.
  • the stability of the containers in order to absorb the pressure present in the interior of the bag is achieved by connecting a plurality of layers to one another via a support layer that runs meander-shaped.
  • the containers made of cardboard or paper can therefore sufficiently support the bag when it is filled with a liquid, which causes a significant expansion of the volume of the bag due to pressure increases, for example, when the outside temperature rises.
  • the membrane used in the mixing unit allows a uniform diffusion of carbon dioxide from the pressure vessel in the liquid flowing through the membrane, whereby it is enriched with a presettable amount of carbon dioxide during Ausschenkvorganges.
  • carbon dioxide can be introduced into the flowing liquid.
  • the supplied amount of carbon dioxide can be adjusted from the outside as needed. It is also conceivable to couple the supply of carbon dioxide with the position of the tap, so that upon actuation of the tap into the pressure vessel carbon dioxide flows.
  • FIG. 1 shows a device 1 for the metered dispensing of liquids 2, which are stored in a container 3.
  • the liquids 2 may be beer, water or other fruit juice drinks; the liquids 2 have no or only a small proportion of CO 2 gas.
  • the container 3 consists of a solid outer wall 41, into which an elastically deformable bag 42 is inserted, in which the liquid 2 is stored.
  • the device 1 In order to convey the liquid 2 from the bag 42, the device 1 has a pipeline 4 with a cross-sectional area A1, which opens into the interior of the bag 42.
  • the liquid 2 is filled by a valve member 6, which is designed as a tap into glasses or other containers.
  • the valve member 6 is therefore usually arranged, for example on a counter, in restaurants.
  • the container 3 is usually stored in a refrigerated basement room and the pipe 4 is permanently installed in the restaurant.
  • the bag 42 has a spout opening 43, in which an adapter 44 is firmly inserted, so that the adapter 44 is fixed to the bag 42.
  • the outer contour of the adapter 44 serves that a connector 9, which is connected to the pipe 4, can be quickly screwed on this, snapped or clipped.
  • the pipe 4 is liquid-tightly connected to the adapter 44.
  • the container 3 is in the illustrated embodiment at a level height 7, which is arranged closer to the earth's surface, as a level height 8, in the area of the dispensing area, so the valve member 6 is located.
  • a first variant of the mixing unit 11 can be seen, which is formed from a pressure vessel 13.
  • a pressure vessel 13 In the two opposite end faces 14 and 15 of the pressure vessel 13, two openings are incorporated, in each of which a tube 17 and 18 is inserted, which protrude into the interior of the pressure vessel 13.
  • the tubes 17 and 18 are connected to the pipe 4 outside the pressure vessel 13 liquid-tight.
  • the aligned in the interior of the pressure vessel 13 to each other tubes 17 and 18 are connected to a diaphragm 16.
  • the liquid 2 thus flows through the pipe 4 and the pipe 17 in the membrane 16 and occurs on the opposite side 15 of the pressure vessel 13 in the pipe 18 and from there into the pipe 4 and from there to the valve member 6 by the pump fifth pressed.
  • the gas pipe 24 is inserted in the pressure vessel 13, enriched by the gaseous and / or aromatically enriched substances 12, in particular carbon dioxide also enriched with aromatic substances.
  • the actuator 25 and the position of the valve 26 the supply amount of the substance 12 is set in the interior of the pressure vessel 13 from the outside. Consequently, there is a constant pressure state in the interior of the pressure vessel 13, which can also be made as a function of the position of the valve member 6.
  • baffle plate 34 is used in the region of the gas pipe 24, on which the substance 12 impinges and through which the particles of the substance 12 are uniformly distributed in the interior of the pressure vessel 23.
  • the membrane 16 is constructed in such a way that the liquid 2 flowing in its interior does not pass from the latter into the interior of the pressure vessel 13 and at the same time the gaseous and / or aromatic substances 12 diffuse through it and thus enriches the liquid 2, for example with carbon dioxide becomes.
  • the membrane 16 may be made of a metallic or synthetic fabric, a Powder layer composite made of metal or plastic, made of a metallic or synthetic fleece or ceramic with a plurality of through holes. All incorporated in the membrane 16 through holes are dimensioned so small that although gaseous substances 12 can diffuse through them, but liquid particles 2 do not escape through the membrane 16. In addition, prevails in the interior of the pressure vessel 13, a preset pressure, which also prevents the liquid 2 exiting the membrane 16.
  • the pipe 4 has a cross-sectional area A2, which is dimensioned smaller than the cross-sectional area A1 of the pipe 4 before it opens into the mixing unit 11.
  • FIG. 3 shows that the mixing unit 11 'consists of a pressure vessel 13', which is subdivided into a total of three sections 19, 20 and 21.
  • the pipe 4 in turn opens into the two opposite end faces 14 and 15 of the pressure vessel 13 ', the three sections 19, 20 and 21 have two opposite pipe sections 22 which through the membrane 16 in the interior of the respective sections 19, 20 and 21 with each other are connected.
  • the liquid 2 thus passes through the pipe 4 and the pipe sections 22 in the interior of the membrane 16 designed as a hollow body and flows through this and the adjoining pipe section 22 from the pressure vessel 13 'in the pipe 4.
  • Dievro, die Membranes 16, which are provided in the pressure vessel 13 'is formed, is therefore formed opposite the surface of a single membrane 16, as shown in Figure 2, enlarged. This has an effect on the diffusion rate and the flow rate of the liquid 2 through the pressure vessel 13 '.
  • three injection nozzles 31 are inserted into the pipeline 4, the free ends of which are at different depths into the interior of the pipeline 4 into it are. These form an obliquely extending injection line 32.
  • the three injection nozzles 31 are connected to a pressure vessel 13 ", in which the presettable gas pressure prevails.
  • FIG. 5 shows that the container 3 is designed as a keg barrel into which the bag 42 can be inserted through an opening 45.
  • the container 3 ' has a solid outer wall 41, which is formed for example of metal or wood.
  • the elastically deformable bag 42 is therefore first inserted into the container 3 'and then filled with liquid 2.
  • a support sleeve 46 is provided, which is firmly connected to the outer contour of the adapter 44 is and is therefore covered by the opening 45 of the container 3 'from the inside.
  • the carbon dioxide-enriched liquid 2 is accordingly sucked out of the bag 42, whereby the latter is reduced in its volume expansion. Since carbon dioxide or other aromatic substances are already present in the liquid 2, the device 1 'does not require a mixing unit 11 in order to additionally enrich it. Once the bag 42 is completely emptied, this can be disposed of as a disposable packaging without incurring cleaning to comply with the hygiene requirements.
  • FIG. 6 shows that the contents of the container 42 can also be drained from it by means of the prevailing gravitational force, since the valve member 6 is located at the level level 7, so based on the earth's surface closer to this than the container 3 ', which is placed on the level height 8.
  • the liquid 2 can be filled by means of the prevailing gravity from the container 3 '.
  • FIGS. 7a and 7b show how the container 3 is constructed in detail.
  • the container 3 consists of a five-part outer wall 41, which is folded perpendicular to each other. The free four free ends of the five-part outer wall 41 are covered by a lid 45 after the bag 42 has been inserted into the interior of the container 3.
  • the adapter 44 thus passes through the lid 55.
  • three carrying handles 54 are attached, through which the container 3 can be handled in a simple manner.
  • this has four layers 51, which are made of paper or cardboard. Between two adjacent layers 51, a respective meandering support layer 52 is used, through which the dimensional stability of the container 3 is produced.
