Abstract

L'invention concerne un récipient à boisson (2), auquel peuvent être raccordés une unité soupape de soutirage (4) et un levier de soutirage (3) pour soutirer le liquide, et qui est pourvu d'une alimentation (6) en C02 comprimé pour expulser le liquide. Cette alimentation (6) est réalisée sous la forme d'un réservoir de gaz comprimé, auquel est raccordé un organe régulateur de pression qui libère le gaz comprimé (14) pour le faire passer du réservoir dans le liquide dès que la pression dans le récipient à boisson (2) diminue lorsqu'on soutire du liquide, sachant que du gaz carbonique comprimé est produit dans le réservoir de gaz comprimé par réaction chimique d'au moins deux substances. L'invention vise à obtenir pour un tel récipient à boisson une qualité améliorée de soutirage de la boisson d'une manière constructivement et fonctionnellement simple, notamment concernant le réservoir de gaz comprimé. A cet effet, selon l'invention : le réservoir de gaz comprimé est réalisé sous la forme d'une cartouche (11) d'un seul tenant, divisée en deux compartiments par une cloison séparatrice (10) ; cette cartouche présente la première substance chimique (12) dans le premier compartiment (11a) et la seconde substance chimique (13) dans le second compartiment (11b) ; et le second compartiment (11b), qui reçoit le gaz carbonique comprimé produit par la réaction des deux substances (12, 13), est relié en permanence avec l'intérieur du récipient par l'intermédiaire d'une sortie de gaz comprimé (20) qui est pourvue d'une membrane (19) hydrophobe et perméable aux gaz.
