Definitions
- the invention relates to a tap for withdrawing liquid from a container with a liner insertable into an opening of the container with a seal, which is provided with a passage opening for the liquid, and with a piston axially displaceably guided in the liner, the one opening and one Has outlet opening for the liquid, the piston closes the passage opening of the liner in a locked position retracted into the liner, and wherein in an extended position of the piston from the liner, the inlet opening of the piston is connected to the passage opening of the liner and is actuated by rotary actuators. a flow path through the piston can be released and blocked.
- Such a tap is known from DE 198 25 929 AI.
- the tap is designed for turning the piston.
- the piston extended from the liner can be rotated from the blocking position closing the opening of the bung bush to a release position in which the inlet opening of the piston is connected to the opening of the liner, and vice versa. In the release position, liquid emerges from the outlet opening of the piston, which functions as the removal opening of the tap.
- the tap of DE 198 25 929 AI is of a mature, well-preserved design in practice.
- the tap is particularly characterized by a high level of operational reliability and a high degree of ease of use. An inexpensive manufacture and assembly of the tap is ensured by its construction from only two parts.
- the known tap is mainly used to remove carbonated liquids, in particular drinks, from barrels, small barrels (party barrels) or cans filled under pressure. It is specifically about party kegs for beer. It is felt as a disadvantage of the known tap that it drips when dispensing pressurized liquids containing carbon dioxide.
- the tap is opened for the first time, the inside of the liner and the cavity of the piston fill with liquid.
- the tap is closed, a liquid residue remains in the liner and piston downstream of the passage opening of the liner. The carbonic acid contained in the liquid residue relaxes and continues to let liquid escape from the tap. This is the well-known dripping.
- the object of the invention is to provide a tap of the type mentioned which, with the least possible changed construction, practically the same external dimensions, practically the same external appearance and - very importantly - exactly the same operation bar any dripping and of a fixed jet direction.
- the new tap should be able to take the place of the tap of DE 198 25 929 AI, practically without the user noticing the difference, only that the tap does not drip and is unaffected by the rotary actuation in its beam direction.
- a rotatably guided shut-off bushing is seated in the piston and has a passage opening and from a blocking position in which it closes the outlet opening of the piston into a release division in which the outlet opening of the piston is included the passage opening is connected, can be rotated and vice versa.
- the outlet opening of the piston is closed or opened by turning a shut-off bushing located therein. ben.
- a shut-off bushing located therein.
- the outlet opening of the piston acts as the discharge opening of the tap. Since it is not the piston that is turned, but the shut-off bushing, the jet direction of the tap remains unchanged when the valve is turned.
- the piston in the liner is only axially adjustable. There is therefore no provision for the piston to be rotated. This makes it possible to simplify the construction of the piston.
- the rotary adjustment of the shut-off bush is decoupled from the axial adjustment of the piston in the tap according to the invention.
- the user can thus independently pull the piston out of the liner and turn the shut-off bush in the piston. Incorrect operation cannot occur since liquid only escapes from the tap when the piston has been pulled out of the liner sufficiently and the shut-off sleeve has been turned sufficiently in the piston.
- the tap according to the invention is in three parts and therefore somewhat more complex to manufacture and assemble than the two-part tap of DE 198 25 929 AI.
- the associated somewhat higher production costs are more than compensated for by the advantage of not dripping and being of a fixed beam direction.
- the inlet opening and the outlet opening of the piston lie on its underside in a common radial plane. This structure is made possible by the purely axial adjustment of the piston in the liner. You get one structural simplification of the piston and a jet direction exactly downwards.
- the piston is stop-limited in its extension movement from the barrel.
- shut-off sleeve is stop-limited in its rotary movement in the piston on both sides.
- a shield is provided on the outer end face of the shut-off bushing, from which a handle is divided.
- the handle bar is provided with an elastic covering. This significantly increases the ease of use of the tap and its perceived value for the user.
- the covering of the handle bar is structured on the surface to improve its grip, in particular provided with ribs or webs. This increases the ease of use of the tap.
- the covering is molded onto the handlebar using two-component injection molding technology. This is preferred for cost reasons.
- the handle bar has a connection to the liner at at least one predetermined breaking point.
- the connection consists of the elastic material of the covering. This also serves for ease of use.
- FIG. 1 to 3 are perspective views of a tap;
- Fig. 4 is a first side view of the tap;
- 5 shows a section through the tap according to A - A of FIG. 4.
- 6 shows a second, enlarged side view of the tap;
- FIG. 7 shows a section through the tap according to BB from FIG. 6.
- the tap is in three parts. It consists of a liner 10, a piston 12 and a shut-off book 14.
- the bushing 10 has a circular cylindrical cup body 16, the bottom 18 of which is closed at its inner end. At the outer end of the bushing 10, a conically expanding sheet of elastic material is formed, which has a flange-like outer contact section 20, a circumferential sealing section 22 which recesses behind it and a circumferential conical latching section 24 located in front of the sealing section 22, the diameter of which is larger than that the sealing section 22.
- the tap according to the invention is pressed into the round opening of a container to be emptied, which contains a liquid, as a completely preassembled unit consisting of liner 10, piston 12 and shut-off bush 14. It is a pressureless or pressurized liquid that can contain carbonic acid. In particular, it is about tapping drinks, especially beer, from barrels, small barrels (party barrels) or cans.
- the tap is pressed into the round opening of the respective container with the cup body 16 and the conical latching portion 24 of the bushing 10 first.
- the circumferential sealing section 22 receives the edge of the opening under sealing, so that it comes to lie between the flange-like contact section 20 and the latching section 24 of the bushing 10, with which the latter engages at the edge of the opening.
- the conical locking portion 24 of the bushing 10 is provided with a flattening 26. Furthermore, ribs 28 are used on the outer casing of the cup body 16 for alignment and to prevent rotation.
- the piston 12 is accommodated in the liner 10 in a rotationally fixed and axially displaceable manner.
- the piston 12 has a circular cylindrical cup body. per 30, the bottom 31 of which is closed at its inner end.
- the outer end of the piston 12 is open.
- An axial blind groove 32 on the jacket of the piston 12 serves to prevent the piston 12 from rotating.
- the blind groove 32 does not extend to the inner end of the piston 12, the jacket of which is fully cylindrical here.
- the blind groove 32 is tapped with a cam 33 which is molded onto the flange-like contact part 20 of the bushing 10.
- the cam 33 is elastically deformed by the fully cylindrical end of the piston 12 until it jumps into the blind groove 32 and engages there.
- the axial extension length of the piston 12 from the sleeve 10 is limited by the stop of the cam 33 on the groove base of the blind groove 32.
- the cup body 16 of the liner 10 is provided with a passage opening 34 for the liquid just behind the conical locking section 24.
- the passage opening 34 is located on the underside of the liner 10 which is appropriately aligned in the opening of the container.
- the cup body 30 of the piston 12 has an inlet opening 36 at its inner end and an outlet opening 38 for the liquid at its outer end.
- the openings 36, 38 are located on the underside of the piston 12 axially guided in the bushing 10. They lie in a common radial plane.
- the piston 12 retracted into the bushing 10 seals the passage opening 34 of the bushing 10.
- An elastic insert on the jacket of the piston 12 is used for sealing, which is molded onto it in two-component injection molding technology.
- shut-off bush 14 sits in the open outer end of the piston 12 so that it covers its outlet opening 38.
- the shut-off bush 14 has a cylinder cup body 40 with a flange-like shield 42 on the outer bottom.
- the shut-off bush 14 is seated with the cylinder cup body 40 in an axially fixed manner and can be rotated in a limited manner in the outer end of the piston 12. It is sealed against the piston 12 by an annular bead 41 formed on the cylinder cup body 40.
- a blind groove extending in the circumferential direction is used on the outer jacket of the cylinder cup body 40, which is picked up by a cam formed on the piston 12.
- a circumferential groove can also be provided on the inner surface of the piston 12 and a cam on the shut-off bushing 14 in order to achieve their axial fixation and angularly limited rotatability.
- the shut-off bush 14 has a locking position in the piston 12 in which it tightly closes the outlet opening 38 of the piston 12.
- An elastic insert on the outer jacket of the shut-off bushing 14 serves for sealing, which is molded onto it in two-component injection molding technology.
- the cylinder cup body 40 of the shut-off bush 14 is provided with a passage opening 44 for the liquid, which can be connected to the outlet opening 38 of the piston 12 by turning the shut-off bush 14.
- the outlet opening 38 of the piston 12 and the passage opening 44 of the shut-off bush 14 fully coincide with one another.
- the flange-like shield 42 of the shut-off bushing 14 comes into flush contact with the flange-like contact part 20 of the bushing 10 on the outside.
- a seal 46 is formed on the contact part 20, which protrudes through an opening 48 in the shield 42 and tears off when the piston 12 is pulled out for the first time. This ensures protection of originality.
- a handle 50 is divided from the shield 42 and is used for the axial actuation of the piston 12 and for the rotary actuation of the shut-off bush 14.
- the handle bar 50 can be bent up by the shield 42. Its articulation points are designed to discolour the first time you bend it up. This serves to protect the originality.
- the handle bar 50 is provided with an elastic covering molded onto it in two-component injection molding technology. Its surface can be structured in a way that improves its grip, in particular provided with ribs or webs.
- the handle bar 50 has a connection to the flange-like contact part 20 of the bushing 10 at several predetermined breaking points.
- the connection consists of the elastic material of the covering. This serves ease of use and protection of originality.
