Definitions

  • the invention relates to a dispensing system for the simultaneous dispensing of beer from a reservoir into a plurality of containers such as glasses, comprising a supply line with a subsequent distributor area with a plurality of outlets, wherein the beer in the distribution area and on this in the containers such as glasses is feasible on the supply line.
  • the invention relates to a method for simultaneously pouring beer into a plurality of containers such as glasses, wherein the beer is fed from a reservoir for the beer via a supply line to a distribution area with a plurality of outlets and wherein the beer through the outlets and taps in the containers how glasses are dispensed.
  • a dispensing system according to the introductory part of independent claim 1 and independent claim 10 is known from DE 50709 known.
  • Known dispensing systems usually include a dispensing computer, which controls a dispensing operation. After pressing a button by an operator, a main valve in the selected tap is opened, which releases the flow of a beverage. The beverage then flows from a reservoir or reservoir through a supply line and the selected tap into a drinking vessel. As soon as a desired amount has been reached or the drinking vessel is filled, the valve is closed and the tapping process is ended.
  • a dispensing quantity is usually set by means of time or quantity control. In the case of a quantity control, for example, a flow meter for measuring a flow rate is provided, wherein the flow meter is connected to the dispensing computer. The dispensing computer thus receives up-to-date information about the drafted amount of beverage and can thereby control the tapping process.
  • the glass which is filled by the tap due to the proximity to the supply line with the highest dispensing speed, can therefore already overflow, while another glass, which is farther from the supply line and is therefore filled by a tap with a lower tipping speed, is only half full.
  • the dispensing speed or a flow rate of individual dispensing taps can be adapted to each other, but this complex adjustment work is necessary, especially if the dispensing speed changes as described above in the course of operation.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a dispensing system of the type mentioned above, with which in a short time several glasses can be filled simultaneously with beer, the glasses are uniform and can be filled with largely the same high foam crown.
  • the object of the invention is achieved in a dispensing system of the type mentioned above in that at partial filling of the supply line, the distribution area is completely filled with beer.
  • One advantage of a dispensing system according to the invention is the fact that a large number of glasses or other containers such as cups can be filled with beer at the same time, the beer being filled in the same amount and with substantially the same amount of foam despite several glasses.
  • a dispensing speed for all glasses is largely constant, so that there is no overflow and thus no loss of beer due to different dispensing speeds.
  • the distributor area is then fed with the liquid separated from the foam, so that foam-free beer is available for tapping. This makes it possible, starting from the foam-free beer in the distribution area to form a uniform foam crown in all glasses. In addition, a high dispensing speed is given. Due to the complete filling of the distributor area also different dispensing speeds are largely avoided, whereby beer loss is avoided by overflowing a glass.
  • a connection between supply line and distribution area, wherein the supply line only partially, the distribution area but at the same time completely filled with beer, can be done in various ways. It is possible, for example, that at a connection point of the distributor area to the supply line, a pump is provided, with which the liquid separated from the foam of the beer is pumped from the supply line into the distributor area. Another possibility is that a check valve is arranged between the supply line and the distributor area, so that at sufficiently high pressure, the distributor area is always completely filled with beer. Another possibility of the connection is that the supply line and the distributor area are designed as communicating vessels, wherein a connection leads from the liquid area in the supply line to the distributor area and an uppermost level of the liquid in the distributor area lies below a lowest level of the liquid in the supply line.
  • a structurally particularly simple embodiment results when the supply line opens into an upper part of the distributor region, in particular at a highest point of the distributor region. This makes it possible in a simple manner and without additional technical measures to keep the distribution area always completely filled with beer.
  • the supply line is arranged after the distribution area above this. The beer can then be fed from above the supply line down into the distribution area, so that the distribution area is always completely filled with beer.
  • the supply line is formed with a longitudinal extension, partial separation of the supply line can also be done in a structurally simple manner during supply of the beer in the distribution area segregation of foam and liquid of the beer, so that optimal conditions for a subsequent tapping of the beer from the Distributor area result.
  • the supply strand is formed with a longitudinal extension which corresponds at least to a longitudinal extension of the distributor region.
  • a sufficiently long distance is provided along which the desired separation of the foam from the liquid of the beer can take place. This is particularly important when beer is to tap from newly delivered barrels or tanks, as this beer is not usually calmed or stirred up due to the transport.
  • the supply line is formed after the distributor region with a vertically adjoining the distributor region part and an adjoining, preferably horizontally disposed longitudinally extended part.
  • the supply line and the distributor area can then be tubular.
  • a pressure equalization tank with a gas supply for pressurizing the surge tank with a Gas be provided, wherein the pressure equalization tank is connected to the supply line with gas exchange.
  • the pressure equalization tank can be arranged at any desired positions in the dispensing system, since the gas can be supplied to the supply line via a pressure line without great technical problems. However, it is preferred that the pressure equalization tank is arranged above the supply line. This allows a compact design, since surge tank, supply line and distribution area can be positioned one above the other. In particular, these components can be arranged one above the other in a plane, resulting in a space-saving design.
  • the pressure equalization tank can be tubular or pipe-shaped. Are all three components tubular, they can be connected to a vertical pipe, so that a design effort for the dispensing system is minimized.
  • the distributor area is expediently equipped with a number of dispensing taps corresponding to a number of the outlets. It is advantageous that openings of the taps are above a maximum level of a beer in the distributor area. The beer is then fed from below into a tap, which is advantageous in terms of the optimal formation of a foam crown.
  • Switching valves may also be provided in the taps in order to flush the taps with water as needed.
  • the beer can be left in the supply line, because this is already charged with CO 2 via the pressure equalization container and thus does not suffer any loss of quality.
  • the taps which remain in beer remains, however, it can lead to hygienic problems over time.
  • a change-over valve is provided, the tap can be flushed with water in a simple manner after completion of a dispensing operation and thus cleaned.
  • appropriate Cleaning operations are logged by a dispensing computer, so that the proper operation of a dispensing system can also be detected.
  • the dispensing system may have a rotatable and liftable lifting device for the glasses.
  • a lifting device which is both liftable and rotatable, a pin in glasses or cups of different glass or cup height can be done by an adjustment is made by a suitable up or down stroke of a footprint for the containers.
  • the tapping process gives even better control.
  • the ends of the taps can by raising the containers and pivoting the same far into this range, so that the ends of the taps are initially just above a bottom of the container to be filled. When tapping the containers are lowered, so that a constant small distance between the end of the tap and the dispensing line and the level level can be kept in the container.
  • the lifting device is pivoted to the horizontal position of the containers and lowered to bring a greater free space between the dispensing line and the level and thus form the foam crown.
  • the rotation mechanism and the pivoting mechanism are formed so that they are simultaneously actuated. As a result, the containers can be moved along any lifting and pivoting paths.
  • the dispensing system can be equipped with an industrial computer with integrated PLC control.
  • the controller can be used to control an optimum flow rate to achieve the same dispensing time and foaming even when pressure is different.
  • the supply line and the distributor area are partially or completely encased with profiles made of a metal.
  • profiles made of a metal for this purpose, in particular profiles of aluminum or an aluminum alloy are used, preferably die-cast profiles made of these materials.
  • the profiles are hollow and can be supplied with a coolant to keep a temperature of the beer at about 4 ° C constant.
  • the beer temperature can simply be maintained at a desired value.
  • the procedural object of the invention is achieved if in a method of the type mentioned in the beer from a reservoir via a supply line with partial filling of the same in the distribution area with complete filling of the same is performed and the beer is tapped at filled distributor area.
  • An advantage achieved by a method according to the invention can be seen in the fact that due to the only partial filling of the supply line, the simultaneous full filling of the distributor area beer can be tapped into several glasses with high dispensing speed and optimal or uniform formation of a foam crown in the individual glasses ,
  • the supply line which is only partially filled, for example, with a level of 20% to 90%, there is a calming of the supplied beer.
  • this calming foam separates from the liquid of the beer, so that virtually pure liquid can be fed into the distribution area.
  • In the distribution area is a complete filling, so that for the individual outlets even with simultaneous operation of all outlets an equal dispensing speed is given.
  • a complete filling of the distributor area can be achieved particularly easily if the beer is guided from above into the distributor area by partially filling the supply line via a tubular extension.
  • the beer with partial filling of the supply line along a preferably horizontally formed part thereof and then guided in a further part down to the distribution area.
  • a level in the supply line can be chosen arbitrarily, as far as a filling of the same is not complete and thus a volume for foam to be separated is available. It is expedient for the beer to be guided in a region of the supply line upstream of the distributor area with a maximum fill level of 80%, preferably a maximum of 60%.
  • the containers such as glasses
  • the method can be further improved with respect to optimum filling of the containers and formation of a foam crown.
  • the glasses are then pivoted first and moved downwards during the filling, so that there is a constant distance between the dispensing line and the level in the container.
  • the container is then placed vertically at a predetermined level and lowered.
  • the supply line and the distributor area can be cooled with a liquid coolant. This can be z. B. realize when the coolant is passed through adjacent the supply line and the distributor area metallic profiles.
  • Fig. 1 an inventive method using a dispensing system 1 according to the invention is sketched very schematically.
  • the dispensing system 1 has a reservoir 2, is stored in the beer 3 in stock.
  • the reservoir 2 may be a barrel or a tank. Especially at large events, large-volume tanks are more often used as barrels. It is also possible that the reservoir 2 is formed from a variety of barrels from which optional beer 3 can be deducted. This can be achieved, for example, by using a plurality of switchable valves.
  • the dispensing system 1 is connected to the reservoir 2 via a line 8. In the dispensing system 1, the line 8 opens into a wider supply line 5. This supply line 5 continues to a distributor area 6 with a plurality of outlets 7.
  • the supply line 5 is preferably arranged above the distributor area 6, as shown, so that the beer 3 flowing in when partially filled of the supply line 5 always completely fills the distributor area 6. But it is also possible that the supply line 5 is disposed at the same level or below the distributor area 6, provided that means are provided which allow for partial filling of the supply line 5 a complete filling of the distributor area 6, z. As pumps or other funding. Furthermore, a surge tank 9 is provided with a plurality of terminals. The pressure equalization tank 9 communicates with a gas reservoir and can be acted upon with a predefined and controllable pressure with a gas, in particular CO 2 . The surge tank 9 can be arranged at any position, but is located with advantage above the supply line 5.
  • beer 3 is guided from the reservoir 2 via the line 8 to the supply line 5.
  • the supply line 5 which is formed with a diameter of about 5 cm to 25 cm, in particular 10 cm to 20 cm, is a flow velocity of Beer 3 due to the large and in particular over a cross section of the line 8 significantly enlarged cross-section low.
  • the beer 3 is tracked in this area so that it is not completely filled.
  • levels in the supply line 5 of about 30% to 70% before.
  • the beer 3 flows as mentioned relatively slowly and quietly, so that foam can escape from the liquid of the beer 3 along this calming section. It is thus achieved in this area a clean separation of foam and liquid, which is particularly advantageous in strongly stirred beer.
  • the supply line 5 ends at the bottom in an upper level of the distributor region 6, so that it remains completely filled or at least substantially completely filled with continuous tracking of the beer 3 even with a quick tap on the outlets 7.
  • the supply strand 5 is acted upon by gas from the surge tank 9, wherein typically pressures of 1.2 bar to 2.0 bar are used.
  • gas 92 can be introduced via a shut-off valve 93 with a valve 93 in the surge tank. Due to the leadership of the beer 3 with partial filling of the supply line 5 and with simultaneous filling of the distributor region 6, however, can be worked with a relatively low pressure of about 1.3 bar to 1.6 bar usually. Since only a small pressurization is required, the conditions for the simultaneous formation of foam crowns in several glasses 4 are further optimized, since at lower pressure, the formation of foam crowns much more defined than at high pressure.
