Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a dispenser of liquids (in particular, of at least one beverage, and more in particular, drinking water) and a use of a container device.
  • dispensers of this sort comprise a containment chamber within which the water present in the refill reservoir is supplied by gravity.
  • the containment chambers can be cooled and/or heated so as to enable the user to draw off hot water and/or cold water according as needed.
  • a dispenser according to the preamble of claim 1 is known from EP 0 581 491 A1 .
  • Drinking-water dispensers of a known type have various drawbacks, amongst which the fact that cleaning and hygiene of the containment chamber/chambers can be obtained only through very frequent maintenance and cleaning operations. These operations are extremely complex, problematical, and long and consequently require long periods in which the dispenser cannot in actual fact be used.
  • the aim of the present invention is to provide a dispenser of liquids (in particular, of at least one beverage; more in particular, drinking water) and a use of a container device that will be free from the drawbacks described above and, at the same time, will be convenient and economically advantageous to produce.
  • the present invention relates to a dispenser according to appended claim 1 and the use of a container device according to appended claim 10. Specific embodiments are covered by the dependent claims.
  • FIG 2 designated as a whole by 1 is a dispenser of liquids (in particular, of at least one beverage; more in particular, drinking water).
  • the dispenser 1 comprises: a containment chamber 2 for the beverage; a delivery device 3; and a connection device 4 for enabling installation of a replaceable refill reservoir 5 on the dispenser 1 and for setting the dispenser 1 in fluid communication with the refill reservoir 5.
  • the delivery device 3 is designed to enable or prevent outlet of the beverage from the containment chamber 2 so as to enable a user to draw off the beverage from the dispenser 1.
  • the delivery device 3 comprises a tap.
  • the dispenser 1 comprises a further containment chamber 6 connected to a further delivery device 7.
  • the containment chambers 2 and 6 are differentiated, since the beverage present in the containment chamber 2 is cooled by means of a cooling device 9, whereas the beverage present in the chamber 6 is heated by means of heater means (not illustrated - typically, electrical resistors).
  • the cooling device 9 comprises a cooling element 10 set within the containment chamber 2 and jutting out from an inner surface of the chamber 2 itself.
  • An opening 11 sets the containment chambers 2 and 6 in connection.
  • the connection device 4 comprises a seat 12, set within which is a pointed sleeve 13 and mounted in which, in use, is a neck 14 (oriented downwards) of the refill reservoir 5.
  • the sleeve 13 which is hollow and open at the ends) extends within the reservoir 5 so as to enable passage of the beverage from the reservoir 5 to the chamber 2.
  • the dispenser 1 further comprises a container device 15, which in turn comprises a container 16.
  • the container device 15 is set within the chamber 2.
  • the container device 15 is designed to enable passage of the beverage from the connection device 4 to the delivery device 7 without the beverage itself coming into contact with the inner surface of the containment chamber 2.
  • deposits for example, lime
  • the container device 15 can be removed and replaced easily whenever desired so as to maintain a high quality of the beverage delivered by the dispenser 1.
  • the container device 15 is of the disposable type and, once used, does not need to be washed, but can be directly thrown away (after being replaced by another "new" container device 15).
  • the container 16 comprises (more in particular, is) a (substantially) limp sac, i.e., a sac that has a different shape when it is empty and when it is full (filled with a fluid).
  • a (substantially) limp sac i.e., a sac that has a different shape when it is empty and when it is full (filled with a fluid).
  • the volume of a (substantially) limp sac when full (i.e., filled with a fluid) is several times (at least three times) greater than that of the same sac when it is substantially empty.
  • the (substantially) limp sac has numerous advantages as compared to a rigid container.
  • the (substantially) limp sac is relatively simple and inexpensive to produce, light, and manageable.
  • Figure 1 is a schematic illustration of a container device 15 in which the container (in particular, the sac) 16 is full.
  • the container (or the sac 16 when full) has a shape compatible with the position and the shape of the cooling element 10.
  • the container 16 has a shape such as to extend around the cooling element 10.

  • the container device 15 comprises a coupling element 18, which connects in a fluid-tight (and releasable) way the container 16 to the connection device 4 (in particular, to the sleeve 13).
  • the coupling element 18 connects a duct 19 in a fluid-tight way to the connection device 4.
  • the duct 19 extends between the container 16 and the device 4 so as to set the container 16 and the connection device 4 in fluid communication.
  • the coupling element 18 is designed to be coupled (for example, by means of screwing) to an element of a shape complementary to that of the device 4.
  • the duct 19 forms part of the container device 15.
  • the container device 15 comprises a coupling element 20, which connects the container 16 to the delivery device 3 in a fluid-tight (and releasable) way.
  • the coupling element 20 connects a duct 21 to the delivery device 3 in a fluid-tight way.
  • the duct 21 extends between the container 16 and the delivery device 3 so as to set the container 16 and the delivery device 3 in fluid communication.
  • the coupling element 20 is designed to be coupled (for example, by means of screwing) with an element of a shape complementary to that of the delivery device 3.
  • the duct 21 forms part of the container device 15.
  • the container 16 has openings in which ducts 19 and 21 are inserted.
  • the duct 21 is deformable.
  • the delivery device 3 comprises: a pressure device (not illustrated, for example a pressure element pushed by a spring) for deforming (squeezing) the duct 21 so as to prevent substantially flow along the duct 21 itself; and a release device (not illustrated, for example a lever for moving away the pressure element from the duct 21) for governing operation of the pressure device.
  • the dispenser 1 (in particular, the container device 15) comprises a duct 22, which extends from the duct 19 to the chamber 6, in particular through to the opening 11.
  • the duct 22 is designed to send part of the beverage to the chamber 6 so that part of said beverage can be heated.
  • all the ducts 19, 21, 22 are made of deformable plastic material.
  • the container device 15 is completely removable and replaceable in a simple and fast way whenever desired. In this way, it is possible to keep the beverage contained in the chamber 2 substantially always in an aseptic and clean environment, at the same time reducing the costs and times for maintenance of the dispenser 1.
  • a container device 15 as defined above is also provided as such (i.e., separate from the dispenser 1).
  • a kit for prearranging the container device 15 for the dispenser 1 is also provided.
