Description

DISPOSITIVO PARA EL ALMACENAMIENTO  STORAGE DEVICE
REFRIGERADO Y DISPENSACIÓN DE BEBIDAS  REFRIGERATED AND DISPENSATION OF DRINKS
DESCRIPCIÓN DESCRIPTION
La presente solicitud de Modelo de Utilidad se refiere a un dispositivo para el almacenamiento refrigerado y dispensación de bebidas.  The present Utility Model application refers to a device for refrigerated storage and dispensing of beverages.
Más en particular, la presente invención se refiere a un dispositivo para el almacenamiento refrigerado y dispensación de bebidas, que comprende un grupo termoeléctrico basado en el efecto Peltier, especialmente destinado al almacenamiento y refrigeración de bebidas dispensables, en particular de vino.  More particularly, the present invention relates to a device for refrigerated storage and dispensing of beverages, comprising a thermoelectric group based on the Peltier effect, especially intended for the storage and refrigeration of dispensable beverages, in particular wine.
Los dispositivos y equipos que permiten refrigerar, por ejemplo, botellas de vino, son conocidos en la técnica. Principalmente aquellos formados por un serpentín, tienen el inconveniente de que pueden variar las propiedades del vino debido, principalmente, al cambio brusco de temperatura, además de requerir un mantenimiento periódico.  Devices and equipment that allow refrigeration, for example, wine bottles, are known in the art. Mainly those formed by a coil, have the disadvantage that the properties of the wine can vary due, mainly, to the sudden change in temperature, in addition to requiring periodic maintenance.
Los presentes autores han desarrollado un dispositivo, que se da a conocer en la Solicitud de Modelo de Utilidad No. 200701677, que permite una refrigeración no agresiva del vino y que no necesita de un técnico de mantenimiento. Este dispositivo comprende medios de refrigeración formados, fundamentalmente, por un grupo termoeléctrico basado en el efecto Peltier sobre la base superior de un receptáculo.  The present authors have developed a device, which is disclosed in Utility Model Application No. 200701677, which allows non-aggressive wine cooling and does not need a maintenance technician. This device comprises cooling means formed, fundamentally, by a thermoelectric group based on the Peltier effect on the upper base of a receptacle.
A pesar de ser una solución sencilla y práctica para el usuario, de su facilidad para el transporte y su bajo coste de fabricación, este dispositivo aún posee la desventaja de ser poco eficaz desde el punto de vista termoenergético. Al estar situado el grupo termoeléctrico basado en el efecto Peltier sobre la base superior del receptáculo, la convección natural es favorecida, es decir el liquido que se enfria aumenta su densidad y desciende, mientras que el liquido caliente asciende. Pero a medida que la bolsa flexible que contiene la bebida a disminuye su volumen, dicho liquido deja de estar en contacto con el grupo termoeléctrico basado en el efecto Peltier y la transferencia de calor (enfriamiento) se realiza mediante la convección libre a través del aire frió, que es mucho más ineficaz que si el liquido a enfriar estuviera en contacto directo con el grupo termoeléctrico. Esto trae como consecuencia que el tiempo de enfriamiento aumente de manera significativa. Despite being a simple and practical solution for the user, its ease of transport and its low manufacturing cost, this device still has the disadvantage of being inefficient from the point of view thermoenergetic As the thermoelectric group based on the Peltier effect is located on the upper base of the receptacle, natural convection is favored, that is, the liquid that cools increases its density and decreases, while the hot liquid rises. But as the flexible bag containing the beverage decreases its volume, said liquid ceases to be in contact with the thermoelectric group based on the Peltier effect and heat transfer (cooling) is performed by free convection through the air cold, which is much more inefficient than if the liquid to cool were in direct contact with the thermoelectric group. This results in the cooling time increasing significantly.
Este inconveniente se resuelve con el dispositivo para el almacenamiento refrigerado y dispensación de bebidas de la presente invención. De manera sorprendente se encontró que colocando el grupo termoeléctrico basado en el efecto Peltier en el fondo del dispositivo para el almacenamiento refrigerado de bebidas.  This drawback is resolved with the device for refrigerated storage and dispensing of beverages of the present invention. Surprisingly it was found that placing the thermoelectric group based on the Peltier effect at the bottom of the device for refrigerated storage of beverages.
Por lo tanto, un primer objetivo de la presente invención es dar a conocer un dispositivo termoenergético más eficaz que tiene la característica de que la superficie fria del grupo basado en el efecto Peltier está siempre en contacto con el liquido hasta el agotamiento de este .  Therefore, a first objective of the present invention is to disclose a more efficient thermoenergetic device that has the characteristic that the cold surface of the group based on the Peltier effect is always in contact with the liquid until its depletion.
El dispositivo para el almacenamiento refrigerado y dispensación de bebidas de la presente invención comprende un receptáculo interiormente hueco, que es adecuado para contener un embalaje que comprende la bebida a refrigerar, soportado sobre el fondo del receptáculo, comprende además un grupo termoeléctrico basado en el efecto Peltier, en el que la superficie fria de dicho grupo termoeléctrico basado en el efecto Peltier se sitúa en el fondo del receptáculo, de tal manera que entre en contacto con el embalaje. The device for the refrigerated storage and dispensing of beverages of the present invention comprises an internally hollow receptacle, which is suitable for containing a package comprising the beverage to be refrigerated, supported on the bottom of the receptacle, further comprises a thermoelectric group based on the Peltier effect, in which the cold surface of said thermoelectric group based on the Peltier effect is located at the bottom of the receptacle, such that it comes into contact with the packaging.
Es decir, el dispositivo para el almacenamiento refrigerado y dispensación de bebidas de la presente invención comprende un receptáculo, preferentemente hecho de madera, interiormente hueco, en el que la envolvente para recibir un envase para la dispensación de bebida está formada por paredes laterales, una tapa superior, y un fondo.

Además, este primer receptáculo es adecuado para contener un embalaje, preferentemente de cartón, con cuatro paredes laterales, un fondo que presenta un agujero cubierto por una solapa extraible y una tapa superior, cuyo interior es adecuado para alojar una bolsa contenedora de liquido flexible, provista de una salida para la bebida.  That is, the device for the refrigerated storage and dispensing of beverages of the present invention comprises a receptacle, preferably made of wood, internally hollow, in which the envelope for receiving a container for dispensing beverage is formed by side walls, a top cover, and a bottom. In this receptacle, a device based on the Peltier effect, advantageously on the side walls of the receptacle or preferably at the bottom thereof, is advantageously arranged. In addition, this first receptacle is suitable for containing a packaging, preferably of cardboard, with four side walls, a bottom that has a hole covered by a removable flap and an upper lid, the interior of which is suitable to accommodate a flexible liquid container bag, provided with an outlet for the drink.
