Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for connecting a container for holding beverage liquids, such as beer, soft drinks and wine, with a fitting, wherein the container has a bubble which is formed at the top, at its head end with a collar-like connection means for filling the liquid can be connected to the fitting, the closable openings for a compressed gas on the one hand and on the other hand has the liquid.
  • beverage liquids such as beer, soft drinks and wine
  • Such trained, in particular made of PET containers or bubbles are often provided with a bag introduced therein or the like bag for receiving the drinks. This unfolds when filling and prevents air from entering the drink or carbon dioxide escapes.
  • the containers or bubbles are preferably used in beverage dispensing facilities for CO 2 -gas operated serving of tempered to drink temperature drinks such as beer, soft drinks and wine for use.
  • a dispensing lever When a dispensing lever is actuated, the beverage is expelled to the beverage outlet via a riser tube projecting from above into the interior of the bladder or inner bag.
  • Such a beverage dispensing device is, for example, by the EP 1 293 476 B1 known.
  • the drink can be removed or the bladder can be filled via a safety fitting arranged on top of the container or the bladder, which has a beverage valve and a gas valve, can be placed on a dispensing head or an attachable connection piece.
  • the tap head receiving safety fitting is pressed when installed in the container top with the container wall, creating a non-detachable connection.
  • These so-called disposable threads are disposed of after beverage removal together with the pressed-on safety fitting.
  • the invention has for its object to provide for a generic beverage container a safe and easy replaceable connection with the fitting or safety fitting.
  • This object is achieved by connecting the connecting means of the bubble with a locking groove of the fitting from the outside, according to an advantageous embodiment of the invention immediately formed on the connecting means and thus an integrated, not lost part of the bubble performing adapter ring.
  • the fitting only needs to be inserted until a locking projection of the adapter ring engages in the locking groove of the fitting.
  • Such an adapter ring makes it possible to use a conventional one-way plug fitting for a PET bladder.
  • Another embodiment of the invention provides an integral, with the locking groove of the fitting and the collar-like connection means of the bubble lockable adapter ring.
  • the separate, made of a plastic material adapter ring is before connecting the fitting with the bladder pushed from below onto the fitting.
  • the adapter ring on the fitting in the vertical direction is moved so far down until on the one hand its upper terminal end with the circumferential groove of the fitting and On the other hand, its lower connection end locked with the collar-like or annular projecting connection means of the bladder.
  • the invention proposes that the upper and lower connection end of the adapter ring is formed with latching projections, of which the upper latching projection engages in the latching groove of the fitting and the lower latching projection engages under the collar-like connection means.
  • Both the upper and the lower latching projection is formed integrally and circumferentially respectively on the inner circumference of the upper and the lower terminal end of the adapter ring.
  • the upper connection end adapted to the outer diameter of the fitting has a smaller diameter compared with the lower connection end adapted to the outer diameter of the collar-like connection means, so that an upwardly tapering oblique surface results in the transition of the adapter between the upper and lower connection ends.
  • This inclined surface or step of the adapter ring is located after locking the fitting with the bubble under bias flush on a complementary thereto nose-shaped outer contour of the collar-like connection means, whereby a stabilization of the adapter ring is achieved.
  • connection ends are connected radially resiliently on the central part of the adapter ring.
  • connection ends on the inner, upper and lower locking projections during the connection process on the one hand on the fitting and on the other hand at the oblique extending outer contour of the collar-like connection means expanded to the outside.
  • the connecting ends spring back or snap back into their starting position, wherein the upper locking projection securely and firmly engages in the groove of the fitting and the lower latching projection engages the collar-like connection means positively.
  • a further preferred embodiment of the invention provides that the upper latching projection is formed with a downwardly tapered insertion bevel. This centers the fitting and facilitates the sliding of the adapter ring.
  • the thus formed locking projection slides with only a small contact surface on the fitting, as well as the immersion of the upper locking projection is favored in the groove of the fitting.
  • the lower latching projection according to the invention is formed with a tapered upwards bevel. This allows when slipping the lower terminal end of the adapter ring on the collar-shaped connection means of the bubble a centered, simple sliding down on the nose-shaped outer contour of the collar. Furthermore, the radial spread of the lower connection end when passing through the collar-shaped connection means is supported by the run-on slope.
  • Fig. 1 is a made of thermoplastic material, in particular PET, bubble 1 shown as a container for receiving or for the pressurized gas-driven delivery of beverage liquids such as beer, soft drinks and wine.
  • the bladder 1 is formed with a bladder neck 2 which accommodates a safety fitting 3 having a fitting riser 4 projecting into the bladder 1, over which the liquid ascends.
  • the safety fitting 3 is provided with closable openings 5, 6 for on the one hand a compressed gas and on the other hand, the liquid.
  • the openings 5, 6 can be connected for filling with a beverage liquid in, for example, a brewery a connection piece or for tapping by the consumer a tap head.
  • the safety fitting 3 has an annular outer housing 7, which is provided with a circumferential locking groove 8.
  • the outer housing 7 goes down into a double-walled, stationary support member 9, between the inner annular wall 10a and outer annular wall 10b flow channels are formed, the inner annular wall 10a at the same time provides a guide for the longitudinally adjustable in the embodiment of the fitting tube 4.
  • the outer annular wall 10b has a circumferentially projecting web portion 11, on the one hand receives the annular outer housing 7 and on the other hand, with the interposition of a seal 12 on a formed in the interior of the bladder neck 2 annular surface 13 is supported.
  • the connecting means is formed as a one-piece adapter ring 15 which is provided at its upper terminal end 15a and its lower terminal end 15b inside with locking projections 16, 17, of which the upper locking projection 16 engages in the locking groove 8 of the fitting and the lower locking projection 17, the collar-like connection means 14 is under attack.
  • the Fig. 2 shows a variant in which the adapter ring 115 is formed immediately on the bladder neck 2 and its end-side, upper connection means 14.
  • the resilient adapter ring 115 has, as a catch with the bladder neck 2 and connecting means 14 is omitted, here only one provided with an insertion 20, circumferential locking projection 116 which engages when sliding the fitting 3 in the locking groove 8 and the bladder 1 safely connects the fitting 3. Otherwise, the components and the operation of this embodiment are identical to those of Fig. 1 ,
