Definitions
- FIG. 5 is a side elevational view of the top part of the apparatus of FIG. 1;
- carbonated beverage dispensing apparatus 10 including a hollow cylindrical drum or canister 12 which is preferably made of metal such as heavy gauge steel for receiving package 13 having a bladder 14 which contains a carbonated beverage.
- the types of carbonated beverages contained in bladder 14 includes such products as beer or soft drinks.
- Dispensing apparatus 10 includes moveable pressure plate 16.
- Pressure plate 16 is adapted to move down to apply pressure to and collapse part of bladder 14 as the beverage is removed from the bladder, thereby limiting the volume of the void within bladder 14 so that the beverage does not lose its carbonation.
- Pressure plate 16 includes raised top 18 which has a tunnel 20 therethrough for receiving rod or drive shaft 22 which in turn is connected through gear boxes 24 and 26.
- the dispensing apparatus preferably includes a means such as at least one gear mechanism for providing a mechanical advantage for moving the pressure plate downwardly on the bladder as the beverage is removed therefrom.
- Vertical straps 96 may be severed once the beverage package 80 has been placed in canister 12. This may be more readily accommodated through the use of holes (not shown) in the pressure plate 16 adjacent to holes 98 in the top plate.
- the beverage within the bladder 14 may be kept cold by the use of known refrigeration means (not shown) including refrigeration coils affixed to the side of canister 12 as well as known associated refrigeration condenser and compressor.
- An adjustable thermostat and temperature control 77 may also be attached to canister 12 and used in conjunction with the refrigeration system in a known fashion.
