Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Object of the Invention] (Industrial application field) The present invention relates to an automatic quantitative dispensing apparatus for sparkling beverages, and in particular, a beverage is extruded from a beverage container by carbon dioxide pressure like draft beer. Automatic dispensing apparatus for sparkling beverages to be dispensed and dispensed.

(Prior Art) There are various types of sparkling beverages containing carbon dioxide gas handled by the automatic metering and dispensing apparatus, such as draft beer, cola, and juice. Here, draft beer will be described as an example.

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, as an automatic quantitative dispensing apparatus for dispensing draft beer from a draft beer barrel serving as a beverage container, an automatic quantitative dispensing apparatus as shown in FIG. 9 is known.

That is, the refrigeration apparatus 2 and the cooling water tank 3 are provided in the pouring device main body 1.

The cooling water 4 in the cooling water tank 3 is cooled by the refrigerating device 2. In the cooling water tank 3, a beer cooling pipe 5 as a beverage cooling pipe is provided, and exchanges heat with the cooling water 4.

One end of the beer cooling pipe 5 is connected to the discharge valve 6,
An outlet 7 is attached to the outlet valve 6. The other end of the beer cooling pipe 5 is connected to a beer introduction pipe 8 as a beverage introduction pipe outside the dispensing device main body 1.

Also, a beverage outlet 10 of a draft beer barrel 9 serving as a beverage container.
, A dispense head 11 is detachably mounted. The dispense head 11 is connected to a siphon pipe (not shown) provided in the draft beer barrel 9, and the upper end of the dispense head 11 is connected to the beer introduction pipe 8.
Is in communication with

Further, a pressure reducing valve 14 attached to a carbon dioxide gas cylinder 13 serving as a carbon dioxide gas supply source is connected to a gas inlet 16 of the dispense head 11 via a gas conduit 15.

On the other hand, below the spout 7, there is a mounting table 18 on which a container 17 such as a mug can be mounted.

In addition, a control device 19 composed of, for example, a timer device is disposed in the upper part of the dispensing device main body 1, and a dispensing button 20 is disposed on the entire upper surface of the dispensing device main body 1.
Then, when the dispensing button 20 is pressed, the control device 19 controls the dispensing valve 6.
The valve driving device 21 is controlled to open the valve for a time corresponding to the size of the container 17.

Next, the operation of pouring draft beer B, which is a carbonated beverage, in the above apparatus will be described.

First, in order to pour out draft beer B, the pressure of the carbon dioxide gas in the carbon dioxide gas cylinder 13 is reduced using the pressure reducing valve 14, and the gas pipe 1 is discharged.
5. Supply to draft beer barrel 19 via dispense head 11. Thereby, the draft beer barrel 9 is pressurized by the carbon dioxide gas pressure. Then, by opening the pouring valve 6, the draft beer B stored in the draft beer barrel 9 passes through the draft beer introduction pipe 8 and the draft beer cooling pipe 5 and is discharged into the container 17 from the pouring port 7.

It is preferable that a predetermined amount of liquid and foam be poured into the container 17 of the poured draft beer B, which greatly affects the flavor of the draft beer B.

If the pressure of carbon dioxide gas applied to draft beer B in draft beer barrel 9 is kept constant (the regulating pressure of pressure reducing valve 14 is always kept constant), draft beer B is discharged through beer introduction pipe 8 and beer cooling pipe 5. In the case of dispensing through the valve 6, the dispensing speed is constant because the pipe resistance is constant.

Only by setting the dispensing time from the control device 19 in accordance with the size of the container 17 such as a mug, the dispensing button 20 can be operated to constantly dispense a fixed amount.

Although not shown, when dispensing and dispensing draft beer B by using containers 17 of different sizes in combination, dispensing buttons (sorting switches) 20... Corresponding to the number of containers 17 of different sizes are provided. By operating the buttons 20..., The dispensing valve 6 is opened for a time commensurate with the size of the container, so that a constant amount can be poured into each container.

However, in the conventional apparatus, a container 17 such as a mug is required.
Each time the container 17 is poured, the positional relationship (height, inclination angle) between the container 17 and the outlet 7 of the discharging valve 6 is different, and the control of the foam of the draft beer B is eventually performed by the attendant. It was taking care.

As a method of adjusting the degree of foaming of draft beer B by hand, that is, as a good method of pouring, the distance between the container 17 and the outlet 7 is reduced, and the container 17 is inclined at an angle of about 45 degrees with respect to the outlet 7. Then, the draft beer B is poured along the inner wall of the container 17, and the container 17 is gradually upright so as not to overflow from the container 17, and is poured out until the container 17 is full.

At this time, when the foam amount is small, the distance (head) between the container 17 and the spout 7 is increased during the pouring, and the draft beer B is dropped from a high position to arbitrarily foam and reduce the foam amount. A way to control was taken.

For this reason, even if the dispensing valve 6 is opened for a time corresponding to the size of the container 17, the amount of foaming differs depending on how the container 17 is received.

As another method of pouring draft beer B from a high position into the container 17 to adjust the amount of foaming artificially is difficult, the container 17 is inclined with respect to the spout 7 to be erect as soon as the draft beer B is discharged. Then, the amount of foam is poured out as much as possible, and while not shown, the pouring valve 6 is controlled to be in a half-open state, and the draft beer B is poured out in a foam state, and when the container 17 is full, the pouring valve 6 is turned off. The method of closing was taken.

A method of adjusting the foam amount by forcibly foaming draft beer B with the discharge valve 6 in a half-open state is a method generally adopted, but the taste is significantly deteriorated, and ideally, draft beer B It is considered desirable to perform a pouring control in which a certain amount of carbon dioxide gas is spontaneously released from draft beer B during the pouring process to control the foam amount.

As is well known, draft beer B contains 2.4 to 2.9 carbon dioxide.
It is contained in vol., and unless the pressure adapted to the temperature of the draft beer B is applied, the carbon dioxide gas is liberated or foamed, or conversely, the carbon dioxide gas is excessively absorbed in the draft beer B, causing a significant decrease in taste. Will be.

Generally, draft beer B at 10 ° C. is 1 kg / cm ² , draft beer B at 20 ° C. is 2 kg / cm ² , and draft beer B at 30 ° C. is 3 kg / cm ² .
By applying a carbon dioxide pressure of kg / cm ^2, the carbon dioxide content can be maintained. As described above, the temperature and pressure conditions are stable under certain conditions, but when the beer B is put in a fluidized state as in the case of pouring, the balance of the conditions is broken and carbon dioxide gas is liberated to foam.

In addition, when pouring into the container 17 such as a mug, the outlet 7 of the pouring valve 6 is brought close to the container 17 so that the draft of the draft beer B is reduced and the head is dropped. The amount increases. The degree of foaming is related to the flow rate and the flow state of the draft beer B. When the flow rate is low, the foaming is gentle, and when the speed is high, the foaming is rapid.

In view of the above, when dispensing a sparkling beverage such as draft beer B in a constant amount, simply opening the dispensing valve 6 for a time corresponding to the container 17 as the control device 20 is incomplete, and the draft beer B It is necessary to change the pressure of the carbon dioxide gas supplied to the draft beer barrel 9 according to the temperature, and accordingly, it is necessary to change the “open” time of the discharge valve 6.

In addition, it is necessary to adjust how the draft beer B is received, such as the inclination angle of the container 17, and it is a very troublesome operation to re-adjust them artificially.

Further, if draft beer B is poured into the container 17 in a completely liquid state, it can be dispensed in a constant amount by controlling the opening of the dispensing valve 6 for a time corresponding to the container size. Therefore, if the foaming is in a pouring state in which the foaming is remarkable, if only the time is controlled, the pouring valve 6 does not close within a predetermined time, so that the draft beer B overflows from the container 17, resulting in poor control. There are problems such as.

The amount of foaming of draft beer B depends on the temperature of draft beer B, the pressure of carbon dioxide, the pouring speed (flow rate), the head drop, and so on. It becomes difficult to control the outlet 6 to close.

(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) As described above, in the conventional apparatus, it is extremely difficult to pour the sparkling beverage in a state in which the sparkling beverage is fully filled without overflowing the sparkling beverage from the container. There has been a problem that it is not possible to stably perform the pouring without impairing the taste.

The present invention has been made on the basis of the above-described circumstances, and an object of the present invention is to be able to pour in a full container without overflowing the sparkling beverage from the container, and furthermore, do not impair the taste of the sparkling beverage. It is an object of the present invention to provide an automatic quantitative dispensing apparatus for a sparkling beverage capable of stably performing such dispensing.

[Constitution of the Invention] (Means for Solving the Problems) As a means for solving the problems, the present invention supplies carbon dioxide gas into a beverage container containing a sparkling beverage containing carbon dioxide gas, In the automatic dispensing device of the sparkling beverage for dispensing and dispensing the beverage into the container from the dispensing valve by the pressure of the pressure, a mounting table for mounting the container, a table tilt drive device for tilting the mounting table, Pour start input means for inputting a signal for starting the pour of the beverage into the container placed on the table, pressure detection means for detecting the pressure of carbon dioxide supplied into the beverage container, The liquid level detecting device for detecting the foam or liquid level of the beverage to be poured into the container, the valve driving device for opening and closing the dispensing valve, the valve driving device and the table tilting driving device start the dispensing. Input means, the pressure detection means, and the liquid level detection And a control device for controlling with a signal from the device, wherein the control device receives a signal from the pressure detecting means by inputting the pouring start input means and responds to a carbon dioxide gas pressure supplied to the beverage container. The tilt drive holding time of the mounting table is calculated and the container is tilted for the calculated time, and then the table tilt drive device is controlled to be in an upright state and the valve drive device is operated to open the discharge valve. The beverage is poured into the container, and when the liquid level detecting device detects that the foam or the liquid level of the beverage to be poured into the container has reached a preset position, the discharge valve is closed. It is configured to control.

(Operation) That is, according to the present invention, the container is inclined by inclining the mounting table at a preset inclination angle, the foamed beverage is caused to flow down along the wall of the container, and the foamed beverage is poured out while controlling the foaming, and the beverage is poured into the beverage container. When the dispensing time commensurate with the supplied carbon dioxide gas pressure elapses, the mounting table is returned to the upright state, and the liquid level or foam surface is detected while the container is standing upright to stop the dispensing of the beverage. The pouring operation is simpler and more reliable than a device in which the container is manually tilted or has a drop from the spout like a device.

Also, first, the container is tilted, the container wall is made to approach the spout of the injection valve, and flows down along the container wall to pour out while controlling foaming. Can be foamed and foamed by taking a large drop from the spout of the pouring valve, so that the ratio of liquid volume to foam volume can be controlled appropriately and can be poured out. Is useful. In particular, in controlling the foam amount, the foaming amount can be adjusted by automatically controlling the pouring head while the pouring valve is fully opened, and pouring with less deterioration in taste can be performed.

Is a linear head 27a which can be retracted and this linear head 27a
And a stepping motor 27b for driving the motor. And
By driving the stepping motor 27b of the table tilt drive device 27, the linear head 27a protrudes and pushes the back surface of the vertical plate portion 26a of the mounting table 26, and the mounting table 26 rotates the shaft 28 as shown by a two-dot chain line in the figure. It is inclined as a fulcrum.

In addition, a control device 30 is disposed in an upper part in the main body 1 of the dispensing device. As shown in FIG. 2, the control device 30 is electrically connected to a valve drive device 21 including an electromagnetic valve for opening and closing the table tilt drive device 27 and the discharge valve 6. Can be controlled. Further, the control device 30 includes a pouring starter 20 which is a pouring start input means arranged on the upper front surface of the pouring device main body 1 and a pressure detecting means disposed on the upper rear surface of the pouring device main body 1. The pressure sensor 36 and a liquid level detecting device 31 to be described later are electrically connected, and each detection signal can be input to the control device 30.

The pressure sensor 36 is connected to a gas tube 37 branching from the middle of the gas conduit 15 so as to detect the pressure of carbon dioxide gas supplied to the draft beer barrel 9.

The liquid level sensing apparatus 31 is for detecting the distance is from one of the photoelectric such as a reflective type optical sensor which becomes H _1, for detecting the liquid level or Awamen height of draft beer B in the container 17. The detection distance H ₁ is set to the same distance as the distance to the upper edge of the mounting table 26 placed on the size of the container 17 in a predetermined and.

Next, the operation of the thus-configured automatic quantitative dispensing apparatus will be described with reference to the flowcharts of FIGS. 3 to 5 and FIG.

First, the pressure of the carbon dioxide gas in the carbon dioxide gas cylinder 13 is reduced in advance using the pressure reducing valve 14, and the pressure is supplied to the draft beer barrel 9 via the gas conduit 15 and the dispense head 11. Then, the draft beer B in the draft beer barrel 9 is made ready to be poured out by the carbon dioxide gas pressure.

Then, when pouring out draft beer B, the mounting table 26
A container 17 such as a mug is placed on the container. At this time, the mounting table
The container 26 is not inclined as shown in FIG. 3, and the container 17 is placed upright. Thereafter, as shown in step S1 of FIG. 6, the ejection button 21 is pressed.

As shown in step S2 of FIG. 6, the pressure sensor 36 detects the pressure of the carbon dioxide gas supplied to the draft beer barrel 9 and inputs the detected pressure to the control device 30 having a microcomputer. As a result, the control device 30 executes step S3 in FIG.
, The container tilt holding time of the table tilt drive device 17 is calculated, and the table tilt drive device 17 operates as shown in step S4 of FIG. 6 to move the mounting table 26 as shown in FIG. The container 17 is tilted and held so as to be inclined with respect to the outlet 7 of the discharge valve 6.

Next, as shown in step S5 of FIG. 6, the valve driving device 21 is operated by the control device 30 to control the opening of the discharge valve 6, and the draft beer B passes through the draft beer introduction pipe 8 and the beer cooling pipe 5. It is poured out of the spout 7 into the container 17.
The draft beer B poured into the container 17 flows down gently along the inner wall of the container 17 and is stored in the container 17. At this time, at the time of pouring, a part of carbon dioxide gas is liberated from draft beer B, and a foam layer is formed on the upper surface side in the container 17. And
The liquid and foam levels rise.

Then, the control device 30 is controlled according to the detection result of the pressure sensor 36.
When the container tilt holding time calculated by the above has elapsed, a signal is sent from the control device 30 to the table tilt drive device 27, and the drive of the table tilt drive device 27 is controlled as shown in step S6 of FIG. Then, the mounting table 26 is returned so that the container 17 is in an upright state as shown in FIG.

At this time, the linear head constituting the table tilt drive device 27
By adjusting the drive speed of the stepping motor 27b with 27a, the falling height of the draft beer B poured out of the pouring port 7 can be adjusted to control the foaming amount.

To the lowered position of foam surface in the container 17 than when inclined to erect the container 17 (or liquid level) until H ₂ as shown in FIG. 5, the mounting table 26 of the container 17 is upright from the inclined state Draft beer B while controlling the foaming amount by the above-mentioned head control by the height of Δh (Δh = H ₂ −H ₁ )
Will be poured out.

Then, as shown in step S7 of FIG. 6, the operation of detecting the foam surface (or liquid surface) of the draft beer B in the container 17 by the liquid level detection device 31 is started. When the container 17 is full of draft beer B, a predetermined foam surface (or liquid level) is detected as shown in step S8 of FIG. 6, and the detection signal of the liquid level detection device 31 is transmitted to the control device. Sent to 30.

In response to the detection signal of the liquid level detection device 31, the control device 30 controls the valve drive device 21 to bring the discharge valve 6 into the "closed" state as shown in step S9 of FIG. And draft beer B
Complete the dispensing.

In addition, since the pouring valve 6 is closed and the pouring is stopped by detecting the foam surface (or liquid level) on the upper edge of the container 17, the draft beer B can be discharged without overflowing from the container 17.

Draft beer B poured into the container 17 is supplied to the discharge valve 6.
The spout can be spontaneously foamed by controlling the pouring head without adjusting the degree of opening, and the deterioration of taste can be prevented.

The reason why the drive time of the table tilt drive device 27 is changed in accordance with the pressure of the carbon dioxide gas supplied to the draft beer barrel 9 is that the dissolved amount of the carbon dioxide gas in the draft beer B in the draft beer B in the draft beer barrel 9 is as described above. For example, when low temperature draft beer B is poured at a low pressure in order to discharge by applying a carbon dioxide gas pressure corresponding to the temperature to maintain the flow rate, the flow rate in the beer cooling pipe 5 and the outlet of the discharge valve 6. The drafting speed of draft beer B from 7 becomes slower, and the foaming amount of draft beer B poured into the container 17 becomes smaller.

Conversely, when high-temperature draft beer B is poured at a high pressure, the flow velocity in beer cooling pipe 5 and the drafting rate of draft beer B from pouring port 7 of pouring valve 6 increase, and the draft beer B is discharged into container 17. The draft amount of draft beer B is relatively large.

As described above, draft beer B has a characteristic that it is difficult to foam at low temperatures and foams easily at high temperatures. Control becomes important.

When pouring hot draft beer B at a high pressure, it is necessary to incline the container 17 with respect to the spout 7 to make the pouring head as small as possible and to pour while suppressing foaming. This means that the tilt drive time of the table tilt drive device 27, that is, the tilt time of the container 17, needs to be maintained as long as possible.

When low-temperature draft beer B is poured at low pressure, foaming is difficult to achieve. Conversely, the tilting time of container 17 is shortened, drive of container 17 is controlled upright, and the dropping amount is increased to properly adjust the amount of foaming. This is because it needs to be controlled.

In the embodiment described above, at the time of transition to the upright state, the drive speed of the stepping motor 27b with the linear head 27a constituting the table tilt drive device 27 is adjusted to adjust the spout 7
In the above, the draft height of draft beer B poured out of the container is controlled by adjusting the falling height, but as another method, the mounting table 26 is tilted until draft beer B almost overflows from the container 17. It may be held as it is, and it may be poured out while suppressing the foaming amount in the state where the drop height is the minimum, and then the mounting table 26 may be quickly driven and controlled to the upright state.

7 and 8 show a modified example of the container supporting means 25, which has a structure suitable for using a plurality of containers 17a and 17b having different sizes together. That is, the intermediate table 40 is attached to the mounting table 26 via the hinge 41. In this case, set to detect distance H ₁ of the mounting table 26 and the intermediate platform 40 and the liquid level sensing device 31 and each of the containers 17a relationships location, 17b of the upper edge of the distance, or the liquid level sensing apparatus 31 are the same It is necessary to keep.

When pouring draft beer B into a large container 17a such as a large mug, the container 17a is placed directly on the mounting table 26 as shown in FIG.
When the draft beer B is poured into the container 17b, the intermediate table 40 is raised with the hinge 41 as a pivot as shown in FIG.
Is placed. Thus, when the liquid level detecting device 31 detects the bubble level or the liquid level and closes the injection valve 6 to stop the injection, the containers 17a and 17b are irrespective of the size of the container.
Draft beer B can be poured out without overflowing.

Further, in the above-described embodiment, the liquid level detection device 31 is a photoelectric type such as a light reflection type sensor, but is not limited thereto, and another type such as an ultrasonic type may be used. it can.

Further, although the stepping motor 27b with the linear head 27a is configured as the table tilt driving device 27, for example, a solenoid with a pusher, an air cylinder, or another mechanical mechanism may be used. Further, the valve driving device 21 is an electromagnetic valve, but may be another device such as an air cylinder.

In addition, the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and it goes without saying that various modifications can be made without departing from the scope of the invention.

[Effects of the Invention] With the above configuration, the present invention has the following effects.

According to the automatic dispensing device for sparkling beverage according to claim 1, the container is inclined by inclining the mounting table at a preset inclination angle,
The foamed beverage is poured out while controlling foaming by flowing down along the wall of the container, and when the pouring time corresponding to the carbon dioxide gas pressure supplied to the beverage container elapses, the mounting table is returned to the upright state, and further, Dispensing of beverages is stopped by detecting the liquid level or foam surface in the upright state of the container, compared to a conventional device that tilts the container manually or makes a drop from the outlet. The pouring operation is simple and reliable.

Also, first, the container is tilted, the container wall is made to approach the spout of the injection valve, and flows down along the container wall to pour out while controlling foaming. Upright, taking a large drop from the spout of the dispensing valve so that it can be foamed and foamed, so that the ratio of liquid volume and foam volume can be properly controlled and poured out, and the amount of foam is important. It is useful for certain draft beers. In addition, particularly with regard to the control of the foam amount, it is possible to adjust the foam amount by automatically controlling the pouring head while the pouring valve is fully opened, and it is possible to reduce the deterioration in taste.

In addition, according to the automatic dispensing device for a sparkling beverage according to claim 2, even if one device or a combination of a plurality of containers of different sizes is used together, the container does not overflow the sparkling beverage from each container. It can be poured in a fully filled state.
