Desktop spreader

SECTOR OF THE TECHNIQUE

The present invention relates to a tabletop spacer, intended for pouring cider and sparkling beverages on the corresponding glass.

The object of the invention is to provide a compact and reduced, autonomous, easy-to-operate equipment that does not require electric pumping elements, stable, easy to store, usable by both right-handed and left-handed, easy to manufacture and commercialize.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Numerous and varied types of spacers are known, in some cases of electric drive, in other cases of manual drive.

The former present the problem of electrical dependence, while the latter usually include bulky actuation means that make the device difficult to store, with a large volumetric occupation, in addition to presenting a complex and consequently expensive structure in its manufacture and marketing .

EXPLANATION OF THE INVENTION

The tabletop spacer that is recommended solves in a fully satisfactory manner the above-mentioned problem, based on a simple but effective solution.

For this, the spacer of the invention forms a compact tabletop assembly, where the corresponding liquid bottle to be spaced is also integrated.

More specifically, the spacer is constituted from a support base with anti-slip stops, from which a cylindrical body emerges vertically in which it is established a cylinder with a piston that can be moved up and down, in combination with a spring, forming a manual actuator assembly that, through the lower part of the cylinder, flows into a chamber with two non-return valves, one that enters the liquid from the bottle, and another outlet of said liquid to the pouring vessel, this being placed in a folding lateral support formed by a ring with a folding / unfolding element, ratchet type, which allows the lateral deployment of the support and the collection thereof occupy a minimum volume in an inoperative situation.

The spacer also complements with a hollow or tubular rod that is inserted inside the bottle whose content is desired to be spaced, a rod at the lower end of which incorporates a filter and at its upper end a clamping rubber on the corresponding neck of the bottle .

The two non-return valves form independent elements with opposite blocking directions, so that while the cylinder is filling the liquid cannot leave it and vice versa, that is, when the cylinder is compressed once filled with liquid, it cannot return to the bottle from which it came, forcing it to circulate towards the exit that is established in correspondence with the ring carrying the glass.

The so described spacer has a number of advantages over conventional spacers known so far, the most important being the following:

• The pump for the actuator of the spacer is a compact block that integrates the actuator itself, piston, cylinder, non-return system and bottle.

• The double valve non-return system is located next to the cylinder making a compact and reduced system.

• It also integrates a folding clamping system for the glass that raises the glass on the table, taking up less space and allowing the user more comfort.

• Once the cup holder ring is folded, it makes storage easier.

• Includes a clamping rubber that facilitates the coupling of the bottle by immobilizing it.

• Elegant and compact design that facilitates its use cleaning and maintenance.

• When the bottle is included inside the spacer, it makes the bottle more stable to the spacer on the table.

• Compact design that facilitates manufacturing and marketing.

• It has a symmetrical design that allows the actuator to be reached from different angles of the table, so it serves both left-handed and right-handed.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

PREFERRED EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION

In view of the figures outlined, it can be seen how the tabletop spacer that is recommended is constituted from a lower support (1) of support on a table or the like, with support blocks (2), support on which It establishes a vertical drive pump (3), materialized in a cylinder (4) with its corresponding rod (5) movable in its breast, against the tension of a spring (8), through its drive end or actuator (9), cylinder (4) that communicates at its opposite end to the actuator with a chamber with a pair of non-return valves (6-7) with opposite blocking directions, as can be seen in Figure 7 .

On the base itself (1) the bottle (10) containing the liquid to be poured can be arranged, being housed within its casing or main body, main body that has a spout mouth (11) that communicates through a conduit (7 ') with the non-return valve (7), while the non-return valve (6) communicates through a conduit (6') with a tubular rod (14) which at its lower end includes a filter (15) that is placed in correspondence with the bottom of the bottle (10) avoiding the jamming of the spacer, counting in its upper extremity an annular rubber (16) of coupling and stabilization on the bottle neck (10) so That this is perfectly immobilized.

The main body of the spacer also includes a cup holder ring (12) provided of a joint (13) that allows its folding in an inoperative situation, materialized in a ratchet.

From these characteristics, and as can be seen in Figures 3 to 6, the operation of the spacer is as follows:

From an initial position shown in Figure 3, in which the assembly is at rest, the liquid outlet check valve (6) is kept in the open position, while the intake check valve (7) of the liquid is in the closed position, so that if the actuator (9) is actuated, the lowering of the piston (5) leads to the emptying of the air contained in the cylinder (4), air that is expelled outwards through of the conduit (6 '), as shown in Figure 4.

Once all the air has been expelled from the cylinder, when the actuator (9) is released, as shown in Figure 5, a suction effect is produced that causes the closing of the non-return valve (7), as well as the opening of the non-return valve (6) thus causing the filling of said cylinder (4) with the product to be spaced, so that once said cylinder is filled, that is to say after the suction effect caused by it ceases, the non-return valves (6-7) they will change position again due to their own gravity, leaving the non-return valve (6) open so that when the actuator (9) is pressed again, the liquid exits through the spout nozzle. (11) towards the corresponding glass (17).
