Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a packaging device for beer containers that accommodates beer containers in packaging containers and allows beer to be dispensed at any time.

The drawings will be explained below.

In the figure, 1 is a packaging container consisting of a container body 1a and a lid 1b;
2 is a beer container, 3 is a beer, 4 is a lid of the container 2, 5 is a motor, 6 is an air pump, 6a is an air intake port, 7 is a pressure pipe, 8 is a beer discharge pipe, 9 is installed in the middle of the pipe 8 9a is its handle.

Conventional packaging devices for beer containers, for example, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, fit the lid 4 into the opening of the beer container 2 or fix it with a fixture to separate the air inside the packaging container 1 from the beer container 2. This prevents the lid 4 from coming off and the beer 3 from overflowing from the mouth of the beer container 2 when air is pressurized and sealed inside the beer container 2 to pour beer. There is.

Moreover, the packaging container 1 was of a closed type to prevent cold air from dispersing inside the packaging container.

Therefore, the above-mentioned conventional device requires the operation of plugging the opening of the beer container 2 and the main body 1 of the packaging container 1 containing the beer container 2.
The operation of putting the lid 1b on the lid 1b was performed separately, and the operation of installing the pressurizing pipe 7, the beer discharge pipe 8, etc. was also required, making handling troublesome.

Therefore, the conventional apparatus has the disadvantage of lacking in convenience for general consumer use.

The present invention was devised to solve the above-mentioned drawbacks of conventional equipment, and the purpose is to simplify the handling of beer container packaging equipment so that it can be easily operated by general consumers. It is something to do.

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below based on FIGS. 3 and 4.

That is, in the present invention, the beer container 2 is housed in the main body 1a of the packaging container 1, the partition plate 10 is provided on the lower surface of the lid 1b of the packaging container 1, and the opening of the beer container 2 is closed at the center of the partition plate. A stopper 11 is provided to be slidable within a certain range with respect to the partition plate 10, and the stopper 11 is always urged downward by a spring 12.

13 is an O-ring provided in the outer peripheral groove of the stopper 11.

Further, a motor 5 and an air pump 6 are provided in the space above the partition plate 10, and the air intake port 6a of the pump 6 is opened to the outside of the lid 1b, and the pressurizing pipe 7 connected to the pump 6 is passed through the stopper 11. Then, install the beer container 2 so that the lower a opens into the upper space of the beer container 2.

In this embodiment, it is preferable to use a flexible hose as the pressurizing pipe 7 so that the stopper 11 can be moved.

Further, the air suction port 6a may be opened inside the packaging container 1.

The beer discharge pipe 8 is provided to pass through the stopper 11, with one end 8a opening at the bottom of the beer container 2, and the other end 8a opening at the bottom of the beer container 2.
b penetrates the lid 1b and opens to the outside.

14 is a valve installed in the beer discharge pipe 8 inside the stopper 11;
14a is the handle of this valve.

FIG. 4 shows an example of the means for engaging the main body 1a of the packaging container 1 and the lid 1b. In this case, an L-shaped engaging fitting 15 is provided protruding from the inner edge of the lid 1b, and Engaging metal fitting 1 on the edge
An engagement groove 16 is provided which prevents the engagement metal fitting 15 from coming off by inserting the engagement member 5 and rotating the lid 1b by a small angle.

Next, the operation of the device of the present invention constructed as described above will be explained.

To use this device, put the beer container 2 containing beer 3 into the packaging container main body 1a with the lid 1b removed, then put the lid 1b over the main body 1a and engage the engaging fitting 15. By fitting it into the matching groove 16 and rotating it slightly clockwise while pushing down the lid 1b in this state,
The engaging metal fitting 15 is engaged with the retaining groove 16 to close the lid 1b to the main body 1a.
Fixed to.

In this way, the stopper 11 attached to the lid 1b is pushed into the opening of the beer container 2 when the lid 1b is pressed down, thereby sealing the beer container 2.

In this state, as shown in FIG. 3, the pressurizing pipe 7 and the beer discharge pipe 8 are at predetermined positions in the container 2, so the motor 5 is driven and the air pump 6 is operated to supply air to the pressurizing pipe. After being fed into the container 2 via the beer pipe 7, when the handle 14a is operated to open the valve 14, the beer 3 in the container 2 is pushed by the internal pressure and is discharged to the outside via the beer discharge pipe 8.

Then, when the valve 14 is closed, the supply of beer 3 is stopped.

Since the present invention is configured as described above, all the functions of the packaging device can be satisfied by closing the lid of the packaging container.

Since there are no troublesome operations other than closing the lid, the device of the present invention has the advantage of being extremely simple and easy to handle.
