Definitions

  • the liquor cabinet can be used as a storage space for a beer keg, cooling/pressing means, such as a pump or carbon dioxide container, for example.
  • the beverage supply may be a beer keg, to which the beverage tube is coupled, but alternative types of storage containers with other types of beverage or liquids such as lemonade, wine or the like are also conceivable.
  • the beverage supply may be provided with a pump or a container with compressed gas in order to transport the beverage via the beverage tube to the tapping column. It is not necessary that the beverage supply is located in close vicinity of the tapping column support, but it can be located in a different space, such that a relatively long beverage tube is used.
  • the control element is formed by an end portion of the tapping column tube remote from the tapping valve, and the stop valve is formed by a self-closing stop element, which is opened upon coupling the tapping column and the tapping column support by means of the end portion of the tapping column tube.
  • the stop valve will close automatically.
  • the above- mentioned second coupling part is formed by the end portion of the tapping column tube in this embodiment. It is advantageous that upon de-coupling the tapping column the beverage tube is automatically closed, whereas the beverage supply can stay connected to the beverage tube. It is also not necessary to decouple a possible pump or pressure container for transporting the beverage upon releasing the tapping column.
  • the self-closing function can be achieved by means of a spring, for example.
  • the tube coupling may comprise a tube shape in which the end portion of the tapping column is receivable. This may be a slidable connection, which is possibly provided with a seal between the tapping column tube and the tube coupling at the tapping column support.
  • Fig. 3 is a similar view as Fig. 1, wherein two stacked liquor cabinets with released tapping columns are shown.
  • Fig. 8 is a perspective view of a part of an alternative embodiment of a tapping device according to the invention .
  • Fig. 1 shows that one of the beer kegs 7 is connected to a beverage tube 8 for transporting beer from the keg 7 to the tapping column 3.

  • the beverage tube 8 ends at the buffet top 5, to which a tube coupling 11 of the beverage tube 8 is attached, see Fig. 4.
  • the tube coupling 11 has a tube shape.
  • the tapping column 3 is provided with a tapping column housing 12 through which a tapping column tube 13 extends, see Figs. 4 and 5. Under operating conditions the tapping column tube 13 transports the beer in a direction from the liquor cabinet 2 to the tapping valves 4, of course when the tapping column 3 and the liquor cabinet 2 are coupled. An end portion 14 of the tapping column tube 13 fits slidably in the tube coupling 11, such that the beverage tube 8 can be coupled to the tapping column tube 13.
  • the beverage tube 8 is provided with a stop valve 15 which closes itself by means of a spring 16.
  • the valve 15 can be opened by means of the end portion 14 of the tapping column tube 13.
  • the end portion 14 is a rigid tube which has a fixed position with respect to the tapping column housing 12. At the moment of placing the tapping column 3 on the liquor cabinet 2 the valve 15 is pressed from its seat against the spring force by the end portion 14 of the tapping column tube 13.
  • the beer can now flow from the beverage tube 8 via the space in which the spring 16 is located through an opening 17 in the end portion 14 of the tapping column tube 13 through the tapping column tube 13.

  • the coupling 22 can be connected to two separate beverage tubes 8.
  • Fig. 8 shows the tapping device 1 in a situation in which the tapping column 3 and the coupling 22 are coupled and locked to each other by means of a locking element 24.
  • Figs. 9 and 10 show the tapping device 1 in a number of released parts.
  • the centering pins 26 are provided with three centering pins 26. The centering pins
  • the centering pins 26 and the openings 27 are positioned such that when the tapping column housing 12 is coupled with the coupling 22, the centering pins 26 are received in the openings
  • the locking 8-15 has a different locking system between the tapping column 3 and the coupling 22 than the embodiments as described above.
  • the locking is effected in vertical direction by means of the locking element 24 - in this case in the form of a pin -, which fits in openings of the tapping column housing 12, the auxiliary piece 25 and the coupling 22. These openings are aligned when the tapping column 3 is placed on the coupling 22 through the centering pins 26 in the openings 27.
  • the tapping device is used for an alternative type of beverage. It is also possible to apply alternative types of couplings between the tapping column and the liquor cabinet. Furthermore, it is conceivable to couple a plurality of beverage tubes to one tapping column.
  • the liquor cabinet can be replaced by an arbitrary tapping column support, wherein the beverage tube possibly extends to a beverage supply in a different space.
