Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Zapfvorrichtung, insbesondere für ein Bierfaß, gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The invention relates to a dispensing device, in particular for a beer barrel, according to the preamble of
Aus
Das vorstehend beschriebene, bekannte Bierfaß mit der integrierten Zapfvorrichtung ermöglicht zwar einen sofortigen Zapfbeginn ohne eine vorherige manuelle Installation, nachteilig bei der bekannten Zapfvorrichtung ist jedoch, daß Innenteil und Außenteil eine Preßpassung bilden, um eine hinreichende Dichtwirkung zu erzielen, wodurch die axiale Verschiebung des Innenteils nur mit einem relativ großen Kraftaufwand möglich ist. Insbesondere bei einem weitgehend geleerten und entsprechend leichten Bierfaß kann dies zu einem Umkippen des Bierfasses führen bzw. ein Festhalten des Bierfasses erforderlich machen.Although the above-described, known beer keg with the integrated tap allows an immediate Zapfbeginn without prior manual installation, disadvantageous in the known tapping device is that the inner part and outer part form a press fit to achieve a sufficient sealing effect, whereby the axial displacement of the inner part only possible with a relatively large effort. Especially with a largely emptied and correspondingly light beer keg, this can lead to a tipping over of the beer keg or make it necessary to hold the beer keg.
Aus der
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Dichtung für eine Zapfvorrichtung bereitzustellen.The invention has for its object to provide a seal for a dispensing device.
Die Aufgabe wird - ausgehend von der bekannten Zapfvorrichtung, dadurch gelöst, dass zwischen dem Innenteil und dem Außenteil mindestens eine Dichtung angeordnet ist und dass mindestens eine Dichtung im Bereich der Durchflußöffnung des Außenteils ausgebildet ist.The object is - starting from the known dispensing device, solved in that between the inner part and the outer part at least one seal is arranged and that at least one seal in the region of the flow opening of the outer part is formed.
In einer Variante der Erfindung ist die Zapfvorrichtung zweiteilig mit einem hohlzylindrischen Außenteil und einem hohlzylindrischen Innenteil aufgebaut, wobei das hohlzylindrische Innenteil um seine Längsachse gedreht werden kann, um entsprechende Öffnungen in den Mantelflächen von Innenteil und Außenteil mehr oder weniger in Deckung zu bringen und damit den Flüssigkeitsstrom zu steuern. Die Öffnungen im Außenteil und Innenteil weisen hierbei jeweils eine besondere Form auf, um beim Verdrehen ein feinfühliges Dosieren des Flüssigkeitsstroms zu ermöglichen. So weist mindestens eine der beiden Öffnungen in Außenteil und Innenteil eine in Richtung der jeweils anderen Öffnung abnehmende Breite auf, um beim Öffnen eine gleichmäßige Zunahme des Flüssigkeitsstroms zu erreichen, da der Flüssigkeitsstrom von der Größe der in Deckung übereinanderliegenden Öffnungsflächen abhängt. So können die Öffnungen beispielsweise dreiecksförmig ausgebildet sein, wobei die Spitzen der Dreiecke jeweils der anderen Öffnung zugewandt sind.In a variant of the invention, the dispensing device is constructed in two parts with a hollow cylindrical outer part and a hollow cylindrical inner part, wherein the hollow cylindrical inner part can be rotated about its longitudinal axis to bring corresponding openings in the lateral surfaces of the inner part and outer part more or less to coincide and thus the To control fluid flow. The openings in the outer part and inner part in this case each have a special shape to allow for twisting a sensitive dosing of the liquid flow. Thus, at least one of the two openings in the outer part and inner part in the direction of each decreasing width on the other opening to achieve a uniform increase in the liquid flow when opening, since the liquid flow depends on the size of the overlapping opening surfaces in overlap. Thus, the openings may be formed, for example, triangular, with the tips of the triangles are each facing the other opening.
Bei einer vorteilhaften Ausführungsform kann zwischen dem Innenteil und dem Außenteil mindestens eine Dichtung angeordnet sein. Dabei ist es günstig, wenn die mindestens eine Dichtung im Bereich der Durchflußöffnung des Außenteils ausgebildet ist.In an advantageous embodiment, at least one seal can be arranged between the inner part and the outer part. It is advantageous if the at least one seal is formed in the region of the flow opening of the outer part.
Bei einer Variante der Ausführungsformen kann es günstig sein, daß vor und/oderhinter der jeweiligen Durchflußöffnung um das Innenteil je ein Dichtungsring angeordnet ist. Dadurch wird verhindert, daß Flüssigkeit in den Spalt zwischen Innenteil und Außenteil eintritt und durch die Durchflußöffnung zum Ventil gelangen kann, insbesondere dann, wenn vor und hinter der Durchflußöffnung des Außenteils die Dichtungsringe in einer Ringnut im Außenteil festliegen.In a variant of the embodiments, it may be favorable that a respective sealing ring is arranged before and / or behind the respective flow opening around the inner part. This prevents liquid from entering the gap between the inner part and the outer part and passing through the flow opening to the valve, in particular when the sealing rings are fixed in an annular groove in the outer part in front of and behind the flow opening of the outer part.
Vorteilhaft kann sein, daß die Dichtung als eine die Durchflußöffnung in der Wand des Außenteils umgebende Manschette ausgebildet ist, die in dem Spalt zwischen dem Innen- und dem Außenteil einen Dichtwulst entlang des Außenumfangs der Durchflußöffnung aufweist. Hierdurch kann bei einer Ausführungsform, bei der das Außenteil an seinem in das Faß ragende Ende verschlossen ist, die Abdichtung gegen Eintreten von Flüssigkeit in den Innenkanal des Innenteils bei hineingeschobenem Innenteil sicher gewährleistet werden.It may be advantageous that the seal is formed as a sleeve surrounding the flow opening in the wall of the outer part, which has a sealing bead along the outer periphery of the flow opening in the gap between the inner and the outer part. In this way, in an embodiment in which the outer part is closed at its end projecting into the barrel, the seal against ingress of liquid into the inner channel of the inner part with the inner part pushed in can be reliably ensured.
Dabei kann es günstig sein, daß der Dichtwulst in Richtung des Faßinneren als Dichtfläche ausgebildet ist, wobei vorteilhafterweise die Öffnung für den Durchfluß in dem Außenrohr als Langloch ausgebildet ist, in welchem der Dichtwulst eingespritzt ist. In einer solchen Ausbildung weist das Dichtungsmaterial die eigentliche Durchflußöffnung durch das Außenteil hindurch auf. Dabei ist es sinnvoll, daß die flächige Ausdehnung etwas mehr als die lichte Weiter der Durchflußöffnung des Innenteils beträgt. Hierdurch wird sichergestellt, daß auch bei teilweiser oder beginnender Überlappung der jeweiligen Durchflußöffnungen eine Abdichtung gegen den Zwischenspalt zwischen dem Innen- und dem Außenteil gewährleistet ist.It may be advantageous that the sealing bead is formed in the direction of the drum interior as a sealing surface, wherein advantageously the opening for the flow in the outer tube is formed as a slot in which the sealing bead is injected. In such an embodiment, the sealing material has the actual flow opening through the outer part through. It makes sense that the areal extent is slightly more than the clear Next of the flow opening of the inner part. This ensures that even with partial or incipient overlap of the respective flow openings a seal against the intermediate gap between the inner and the outer part is ensured.
Vorteilhafterweise besteht die Dichtung aus elastischem, spritzfähigem Material. Besonders günstig kann es sein, daß die Dichtung für die Durchflußöffnung in dem Außenteil einstückig mit der Abschlußdichtung zwischen Zapfer und Faß ausgebildet ist, wobei die Abschlußdichtung an das Außenteil angespritzt ist.Advantageously, the seal consists of elastic, sprayable material. Especially It may be favorable that the seal for the flow opening in the outer part is formed integrally with the sealing seal between Zapfer and barrel, wherein the sealing seal is molded onto the outer part.
Bei einer besonders vorteilhaften Ausführungsform sind Mittel zum lösbaren Festsetzen des Innenteils in der Betriebsstellung vorgesehen, d.h. in derjenigen Stellung, in der die Durchflußöffnungen des Innen- und des Außenteils im wesentlichen fluchten.In a particularly advantageous embodiment means are provided for releasably locking the inner part in the operating position, i. in the position in which the flow openings of the inner and the outer part are substantially aligned.
Dabei können vorteilhafterweise die Begrenzungsmittel als Mittel zum lösbaren Festsetzen ausgebildet sein. Hierbei ist es günstig, wenn eine Rastausnehmung am Innenteil ausgebildet ist, in die eine am Außenteil angeordnete federnde Rastnase lösbar eingreift. Durch die Verwendung der Begrenzungseinrichtung als Mittel zum Festsetzen können besondere Arretierungsmittel eingespart werden, die erforderlich sind, das Innenteil in der Betriebsposition, in der sich die Durchflußöffnungen in Deckung befinden, festzuhalten. Vorteilhafterweise ist die Rastnase an einem federnden Element angeformt, das einstückig am Außenteil angeformt ist. Hierbei kann das federnde Element unter Druck der das Außenteil umschließenden Gummidichtung in die Betriebsposition gedrängt sein, so daß die Federkraft sowohl aus dem Material herrührt, aus dem das federnde Element erstellt ist, als auch aus der Flexibilität des Dichtungsmaterials.In this case, advantageously, the limiting means may be formed as a means for releasably setting. It is advantageous if a latching recess is formed on the inner part, in which a spring arranged on the outer latching lug detachably engages. By using the limiting means as a means for setting special locking means can be saved, which are required to hold the inner part in the operating position in which the flow openings are in cover. Advantageously, the locking lug is formed on a resilient element which is integrally formed on the outer part. Here, the resilient element may be urged under pressure of the outer part enclosing the rubber seal in the operating position, so that the spring force originates both from the material from which the resilient element is created, as well as from the flexibility of the sealing material.
Die erfindungsgemäße Zapfvorrichtung ist nicht auf die Verwendung bei Bierfässern beschränkt, sondern läßt sich auch mit anderen Flüssigkeitsbehältern einsetzen. Entscheidend ist lediglich, daß die Zapfvorrichtung in der Wandung des Flüssigkeitsbehälters vormontiert wird, so daß eine Flüssigkeitsentnahme ohne vorherige Installationsarbeiten möglich ist.The dispensing device according to the invention is not limited to use in beer kegs, but can also be used with other liquid containers. It is only crucial that the dispensing device is pre-assembled in the wall of the liquid container, so that a liquid removal is possible without previous installation work.
Auch ist zu bemerken, daß Außenteil und Innenteil nicht notwendigerweise zylindrisch ausgeführt sein müssen. So können diese Bauteile beispielsweise auch einen rechteckigen Querschnitt aufweisen oder dreieckig sein, wodurch auch eine Verdrehung des Innenteils in dem Außenteil verhindert wird.It should also be noted that the outer part and inner part do not necessarily have to be cylindrical. For example, these components can also have a rectangular cross-section or be triangular, whereby rotation of the inner part in the outer part is also prevented.
