Definitions
- Beverage container made of a thermoplastic material, in particular PET
- the invention relates to a beverage container made of a thermoplastic material, in particular PET, comprising a nozzle unit and a arranged inside the container for expelling the beverage liquid CO 2 - Druckgasspender with this associated pressure regulating unit, which releases the compressed gas from the CO 2 -Druckgasspender in the beverage liquid, as soon as the pressure drops in the beverage container during liquid extraction.
- Such beverage containers especially in the form of a beverage dispensing device as a disposable container, operated with CO 2 -Druckgas serving of tempered at drinking temperature drinks such as beer, wine and soft drinks are widely used.
- a dispensing lever When a dispensing lever is actuated, the beverage is expelled to the beverage outlet via a riser pipe projecting from above into the interior of the container.
- WO 2 008/000574 A1 it is known to use as a disposable container a PET container produced in spherical shape, which has an inner bag receiving the beverage. This unfolds when filling and prevents air from entering the beer or escaping carbon dioxide.
- the CO 2 pressure medium supply consists of a compressed gas cylinder arranged on the bottom in the interior of the beverage container and having a pressure regulating unit mounted thereon.
- Activated carbon is used to generate the compressed gas in the compressed gas cylinder.
- the compressed gas initially be made at all once, for example, by a chemical reaction of at least two substances.
- the invention has for its object to provide a beverage container of the type mentioned as a disposable container with a simpler structure, which also allows an improved CO 2 compressed gas supply.
- CO 2 -Druckgas- dispenser is also made of a thermoplastic PET plastic existing container, which is filled from the outset with CO 2 -pressure gas. It is thus possible to achieve an extremely light beverage container unit or a disposable container for the usual 5 L use, in which the compressed gas in the second, inner container - hereinafter referred to as CO 2 container - does not yet have to be produced, but already in sufficient quantity ready for use.
- the filling volume of the beverage container to the CO 2 container in the ratio of about 3: 1 is designed.
- the beverage container at a maximum filling pressure of 7 bar to be observed has a filling volume of 7 L and the CO 2 container of 1, 7 L, is a KEG or beverage container with the usual 5 L volume for the beverage liquid, without that Total weight of the two-tank unit according to the invention exceeds the prescribed for handling limit.
- An embodiment of the invention provides that a head-side insertion opening of the beverage container is greater than the largest outer dimension of the CO 2 container.
- the CO 2 container can thus be used unhindered and in a simple manner in the actual, outer beverage container of the disposable container. It is advisable to carry out the CO2 container as long as possible, so that the Insert opening can be kept correspondingly small and the outer container is not weakened unnecessarily.
- a preferred embodiment of the invention provides that the CO 2 container is connected to a beverage container lid closing the insert opening, in the simplest case being buttoned therewith.
- the beverage container lid is formed uniformly with the pressure regulating unit and also the riser comprising dispensing valve unit, a completely pre-assembled, all functional parts containing assembly unit can be achieved, which then placed only on the beverage or outer container needs to be.
- the preassembled mounting unit is also in turn a simple screw.
- FIG. 1 shows in a longitudinal section in a schematic way a used in a beverage container made of PET C ⁇ 2 container made of PET;
- Fig. 2 consisting of two PET containers unit of FIG. 1 as a disposable container in Zapfschreib with dispensing valve and Druckregulierü.
- a disposable container 1 for removing or tapping of beverage liquid consists of Fig. 1 from a beverage container 2 and a from the outset with a CO 2 -Druckgas, which thus does not have to be generated when dispensing still filled C ⁇ 2 container 3.
- Both the Beverage container 2 and the CO 2 container 3 are made of PET.
- the head-side insertion opening 4 of the beverage Ke mattersers 2 is sufficiently large to integrate the CXVBe financialer 3 unhindered and trouble-free in the beverage container 2 can.
- the CO 2 container 3 is very long, so that the insertion opening 4 requires only a small diameter.
- Both containers 2, 3 have connection heads 5 and 6 in the form of Aufknöpfnocken or -wulsten. Alternatively, connection threads are possible.
- the tapping disposable container 1 is shown in Fig. 2.
- the insertion opening 4 of the beverage container 2 is closed by a plugged onto the connection head 5 and thus buttoned lid 7.
- the lid 7 is at the same time uniform with a pressure regulating unit 8 for the designed with 7 bar CO 2 container 3 and a nozzle unit 9, which is provided with a zoom up to the bottom of the beverage container 2 riser 10 is formed.
- the elongated CO 2 container 3 is integrated immediately via its connection head 6.
