- the invention relates to a container for carbonated drink provided with a chamber containing the drink, a drink dispensing opening for drink from the chamber, a pressure medium chamber that is in fluid communication with the chamber for supplying pressure medium to the chamber, which pressure medium chamber has an outlet that is closed off by a delivery valve for delivering pressure medium and a pressure regulating element connected to the delivery valve for operating the delivery valve.
- the invention also relates to a pressure regulating element and a method for filling a container with carbonated drink. It is known to supply pressure medium, such as CO 2 , to containers, such as metal containers containing whipped cream or cans of beer, by means of a CO 2 cartridge containing CO 2 under high pressure, such as 50 bar and higher.
- the volume of the CO 2 cartridge is relatively small and a large proportion of the CO 2 will escape on connecting if the connection is not made quickly and in a sealed manner.
- the seals for the high-pressure CO 2 cartridges and the pressure regulation thereof is relatively complex. Furthermore, with the known devices there is no facility for the user to set a regulating pressure.
- a beer keg in which a pressure medium chamber is formed by a cavity in the keg is also disclosed in Gebrauchsmusterschrift DE 201 15 158 Ul.
- a separate dispensing head that contains a pressure regulator can be connected by the user to a beer dispensing valve and to a CO 2 delivery valve. When the dispensing head is connected the pressure medium chamber is connected to the beer chamber in the keg.
- the pressure regulating element is not indicated in more detail.
- a container for beer in which the beer is packed in a flexible bag, which bag is accommodated in a rigid plastic container is disclosed in NL-A 1019054 in the name of the Applicant.
- the container is placed in a dispenser which is provided with a compressor that is comiected to the container to build up pressure in the space between the flexible bag and the rigid outer container.
- the use of a compressor in the dispenser makes this relatively complex, whilst the compressor can give rise to vibration and an increased noise level.
- One aim of the present invention is to provide [lacuna] container for carbonated drink, from which the drink can be dispensed without the use of pressure means to be connected separately, such as a compressor known from the state of the art or carbon dioxide gas cylinders.
- a further aim of the invention is to supply a relatively simple pressure regulating element for a container for carbonated drink that is effective at relatively low pressure. It is also an aim of the invention to provide a pressure regulating element that can be mechanically connected to the container for carbonated drink in an efficient manner, in particular in a process for filling the container with carbonated drink, such as in a fill line for beer. A further aim of the invention is to provide a pressure regulating element that can be adjusted by the user.
- the container according to the invention is characterised in that the pressure regulating element has a housing with an end wall, a peripheral wall and a piston that can be moved in the housing along the peripheral wall in a sealed manner, wherein an upper housing part is formed between a side of the piston that faces the end wall and the end wall and a lower housing part that at least partially surrounds the delivery valve is formed at the side of the piston facing away from the end wall, wherein the piston engages on the delivery valve and wherein the upper housing part of the housing is in fluid communication with a reference pressure source.
- the relatively simple pressure regulator according to the invention can be coupled to the pressure medium container in a simple manner.
- the pressure medium container can, for example, be connected to the container, for example by a wall of a top part, side part or bottom part.
- the pressure medium container is accommodated in the chamber for carbonated drink.
- the pressure regulating element according to the invention is suitable for use at relatively low pressures, lower than 20 bar, preferably lower than 10 bar. Accurate pressure regulation of the carbon dioxide gas pressure in the chamber, at a few bar overpressure with respect to the reference, which, for example, is ambient pressure, is possible using the pressure regulating element according to the invention, without the use of complex gas seals.
- a spring element is accommodated between the end wall of the housing of the pressure regulating element and the piston.
- the delivery valve of the pressure medium chamber is pretensioned and the pressure regulating range of the pressure regulating element can be adjusted in a simple manner by setting the spring tension.
- the upper housing part of the pressure regulating element comprises a cylindrical wall with a screw thread and a cap that is joined to the cylindrical wall by a complementary screw thread, wherein the volume of the upper housing part is variable by moving the cap along the cylindrical wall for setting the internal pressure in the container.
- the chamber of the container can be provided with an insertion opening for introducing the pressure medium chamber into the chamber, which insertion opening is provided with a connecting element, wherein the pressure regulating element has a complementary connecting element for fixing to the connecting element of the chamber.
- the chamber can be provided with an activating member, which engages on the pressure medium chamber when the regulator valve is fixed, as a result of which the delivery valve is pressed against the piston.
- the pressure regulating element can make up a closure assembly with a drink dispensing valve and can be connected to the pressure medium container.
- the pressure medium container After filling the container with drink, such as in a fill line for beer, the pressure medium container can be placed in the container through the fill opening in the latter and the fill opening can be closed off by connecting the closure assembly to the chamber, via, for example, a liquid- tight screw joint.
- a tool is preferably used in the fill line to effect connection of the closure assembly to the container in such a way that this cannot be removed by a user.
- a dispensing line is closed off by a drink dispensing valve, which drink dispensing opening has been displaced with respect to the axis of the container, wherein a dispensing line is provided with an outflow section located transversely to the axis of the container and a section located in the direction of the axis of the container that engages on the outlet, wherein the distance from the axis of the drink dispensing opening is such that in an inactive position the outflow section is within a periphery of the container and in a dispensing position turned with respect to the inactive position the outflow section protrudes beyond the periphery of the container.
- the drink dispensing line When placing in the transport position, the drink dispensing line is turned about its vertical axis such that it is within the periphery of the container.
- the container can easily be transported and stored in this position without the risk of damage to the dispensing line.
- the drink dispensing line By rotating the drink dispensing line about its vertical axis, the drink dispensing line is positioned outside the periphery of the container, so that the drink can be dispensed therefrom into a glass placed next to the container.
