Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for the treatment of gases in a barrel tap burner.
  • This filling operation is referred to in the trade of the cellar master under the heading of encasing.
  • the barrel is made of wood so completely opaque and it is arranged lying down during this operation. Only one hole allows access to the interior, this hole being called bung hole.
  • This hole is located on a generator of the outer surface of the barrel, substantially in the middle. This hole has a diameter of about 5 centimeters, which greatly limits access.
  • the device thus described has gas evacuation means.
  • SO 2 pellets are burned to release sulfurous air vapors that eliminate pathogenic microorganisms.
  • the sanitarization operation must be carried out in a short time before filling, which leads to the systematic presence of sulfurous gas in the barrel during its filling.
  • the exhaust air escapes through the bung hole, that is to say in the immediate environment of the operator and with a flow rate corresponding to that of the filling, so that the density of sulfurous air is sufficient to be uncomfortable and cause irritation in addition to having a particularly unpleasant odor.
  • Air circulation in a cellar is limited and the volume of a barrel is 200 to 300 liters and the rate is 100 to 150 barrels per day, resulting in unacceptable working conditions.
  • the wine supply pipe can not be removed, the operator is obliged to accommodate. Nevertheless, if the maneuvering of a pipe is relatively simple, the maneuvering of two pipes becomes painful especially when they are oriented most of the time in different directions.
  • FIG. 1 shows a head 10, means 12 for connecting this head with a supply hose 14 and means 16 for displaying and monitoring the filling.
  • the filling head 10 comprises a cone 18 attached to a filling tube 20.
  • the tube is protruding from the cone in the lower part while the upper aperture 19 of the cone is closed.
  • the cone thus leaves an annular space between the tube and the wall of said cone, in the lower part.
  • a sewing 22 lateral connects the cone 18 to the means 16 for viewing and monitoring of filling.
  • This stitching 22 is a means of guiding and evacuating gases simultaneously filling as will be indicated further in the description.
  • This cone has a diameter of means equal to the diameter of the bung hole 24 of a barrel.
  • the bung hole has a conical wall also so that the cooperation of the two surfaces makes it possible to obtain a seal.
  • the filling tube 20 is bent immediately above the cone. This allows the operator to adopt an ergonomic attitude.
  • a valve 28 ensures the opening and closing of the feed at high flow because the section of the tube is important.
  • This valve can be of any type, sphere, valve, operated by a pivoting lever or rotary.
  • the valve comprises a maneuvering tee 26 which ensures a certain grip even in the case where the hands are gloved or wet.
  • the viewing means 16 comprise a transparent mirror 30 which serves as a buffer tank.
  • this imager comprises an envelope 32 held between two flanges 34, 36 with tie rods.
  • the lower flange 34 is advantageously connected to the stitching 22 while the upper flange comprises a ring 38 screwing so as to allow disassembly.
  • the upper flange and connected to 40 gas treatment means ensuring in particular the retention of irritating compounds in this case sulfurous vapors.
  • These gas treatment means 40 comprise a cartridge 42 comprising materials capable of trapping the volatile compounds of the sulfurous vapors.
  • This cartridge is screwed preferably on a fitting 44 adapted. Such a cartridge returns to the size of the tap funnel so as not to make the maneuvers more difficult for the operator.
  • An arrangement is shown in Figure 2.
  • auxiliary 48 finishing filler.
  • This auxiliary comprises a stitching 50 and a hand valve 52.
  • the operator reports the head 10 on the bung hole of a barrel.
  • the cone is introduced into the hole to form a tight fitting. This seal is reinforced by the effort exerted by the operator.
  • the filling pressure is gravity but can also come from a pump when the barrels are arranged in height.
  • the cone may comprise a coating adapted on its outer periphery.
  • the operator operates the valve 28 on opening.
  • the liquid flows through the filler tube and replaces the air.
  • This sulphurous air after treatment of the sulfur barrel escapes through the annular space formed between the cone 18 and the filling tube 20.
  • the foam precedes the liquid that appears in the tank 30 in the eyes of the operator who immediately interrupts the filling by operating the valve 28. It can already adjust the filling by reducing the flow and permanently interrupts the constant appearance of the liquid .
  • the operator removes the head 10 without there being overflow.
  • the volume that was contained in the tank and in the quill flows gravitationally into the barrel. This volume is low and easily accommodates in the free volume.
  • the weight is also diminished by the removal of the weight of the pipe but especially by the suppression of the traction to exercise to follow this pipe movements of the cocking tap.
  • the weight of the cartridge is negligible compared to that of the valve itself.
  • the cartridge removes the need to check the correct positioning of the pipe at the place of evacuation when it is not studied for this operation, which is the case most of the time.
  • the cartridge avoids the use of pipes that are generally of great length to access an evacuation, especially as the cellar is large.
  • a solution used by the operators consists moreover with the devices of the prior art, in the presence of a discharge pipe, to position its end in a flow of water flowing in the vicinity, for example a gutter, so to dissolve the sulphurous gases in the circulating water.
  • This solution aims to reduce the length of pipe needed, sign that this pipe is a constraint.
  • this solution interesting theoretically, leads to a mediocre result in terms of treatment of sulfurous gases, a large undissolved portion is spread in the ambient air and therefore close to the operator since the pipe is precisely short, this in the best case and in the presence of a large flow of water.
  • the filtration cartridge has a processing capacity for example of the order of a hundred barrels, which allows an operator to work a whole day and predict at most a single change.
  • the cartridge is then removed and replaced by a new cartridge, which is an operation of great ease and especially very fast.
  • Stopping the filling can also be obtained by automatic means of the solenoid valve type controlled by a suitable detector.
  • the tracking and filling control means are not a requirement for the present invention. It suffices then to have the stitching 22 and means for evacuating and guiding the gases, the cartridge being interposed on this circuit. The cartridge is then disposed in place of the means 16 for monitoring and control of the filling.
  • the present invention provides a gain of certain space, especially in height, facilitating the introduction and manipulation of the tap funnel between the barrels.
  • the funnel tap is also lighter and with fewer parts in offset, this compactness facilitating even more its use.
