A system and method for the automated dispensing of bulk keg wine is provide having, in combination: integrated temperature control; pressure monitoring; automated purging; and integrated point of sale data acquisition for determining inventory usage statistics for each keg of wine dispensed. The system provides for precise measurement of each portion. An error alarm system warns an operator about beverage tank low level. A system for forcing the flashing of poor quality beverage. Recording of all delivery process events allows for operator or management review and control.

The present invention relates to a caulking gun for dispensing viscous material comprising a stock a cartridge keep a push rod longitudinally moveably mounted in the stock provided at its one end with a plunger which engages the piston of a cartridge placed in the cartridge keep, means for engaging the push rod to advance it, brake means hinged to the stock and provided with a clearance hole for engaging the push rod such that the push rod is moveable in a direction advancing the push rod towards the cartridge and is held in a direction retreating the push rod from the cartridge, which brake means are arranged to travel to a first position relative to the stock as the push rod advances and to a second position as the push rod retreats thereby defining the retreat of the push rod, the brake means being inclined relative to the axis of the push rod and adjusting means for varying the retreat of the push rod.

In order to provide an adjustable caulking gun with at least two different levels of retreat of the push rod giving the user easily a visual feedback of the chosen retreat of the push rod, it is proposed according to the present invention that the adjusting means are configured as a rotatable wheel with a slope, the rotatable wheel being positioned on the axis of the push rod between the stock and the brake means, the distance between the highest point of the slope and the brake means defining the retreat of the push rod.

This rotatable wheel allows the user to select the level of retreat of the push rod by turning the wheel between a first position with no retreat of the push rod and a second position with a maximum retreat of the push rod resulting in a anti-drip behaviour of the caulking gun.

A fluid product dispenser comprising a tank and a metering device mounted on the tank, the metering device having a chamber defining an inlet, an abutment, an outlet and a sealing seat, the abutment separated from the sealing seat by a stroke distance; a valve movable inside the chamber over the stroke defined between a rest position, in which the valve is biased by a return force towards the abutment, and an end position, in which the valve is selectively urged onto the sealing seat against the return force by the fluid flowing in the chamber from the inlet to the outlet; and a mechanism for adjusting the stroke of the valve capable of adjusting the stroke distance separating the abutment from the sealing seat. The adjustment mechanism is located in the fluid tank, so that they are inaccessible and cannot be actuated from outside the fluid product dispenser.

A filling device (1) for filling battery cells with an electrolyte liquid includes a metering cylinder, in which a specified quantity of electrolyte liquid can be received, and a metering piston (10), where the electrolyte liquid quantity received in the metering cylinder can be discharged out of the metering cylinder and transferred into a battery cell. In order to allow a more reliable and precise filling process of the battery cells while minimizing the technical structural complexity, the metering cylinder as well as the metering piston (10) are arranged within a filling device (1) intermediate container (3), which is filled with electrolyte liquid.
