Apparatus, systems and methods for dispensing drinks, food, and other liquids
An adapter having a female coupling configured to receive and establish a friction seal with a male coupling of an external device for inserting or extracting a liquid to or from a container, by applying a load to the male coupling after inserting it into the female coupling, the load being provided by the weight of a portion of the external device, the adapter being configured for insertion in a mouth of the container and secured therein using a stretchable membrane that fits snugly around the mouth of the container for obtaining a tight seal, the stretchable membrane having tabs for a user to grasp.
Beer line adapter
An adapter, a system, and a method of capturing liquid from a feed line of a liquid delivery system, the liquid delivery system including liquid container, a delivery tap, a gas source, a liquid delivery line from the liquid container to the tap, the liquid delivery line containing liquid, and a gas line from the gas source to the liquid container, the gas line containing gas; by disconnecting the gas line and the liquid delivery line from the liquid container, and flowably connecting the gas line to the liquid delivery line, using an adapter, and pushing the liquid in the liquid delivery line out through the tap.
Pressurised liquid dispenser with three way valve for venting a container
A device for dispensing liquid from a container includes a dispensing tube to dispense the liquid through a dispensing valve. A gas tube feeds pressurized gas into the container. The upstream end of the gas tube connects to a source of pressurized gas. A three way valve is coupled to the downstream end of the gas tube. The three way valve includes a keg duct in communication with the interior of the container, a gas duct connected to the downstream end of the gas tube, and a vent duct. The three way valve can switch from a dispensing position in which the keg duct is in communication with the gas duct, and out of communication with the vent duct, to a venting position in which the keg duct is in fluid communication with the vent duct and out of fluid communication with the gas duct.
Polymeric keg connector
A polymeric keg connector for fluidly connecting the interior of a container has an opening with a fluid tube. The keg connector has a connector, a coupler, a support movable in a longitudinal direction Z with respect to the base body, a tube, and a penetration actuator. The distance the support is moved is sufficient for the tube penetration end to penetrate into the opening provided on a closure of the container. The sliding surfaces of the connector and the support are manufactured with a particulate-reinforced polymeric material and the polymeric material of the connector is reinforced by a particulate material that can be different from the particulate material reinforcing the support element.
Connector assembly for use in a system for dispensing alcoholic beverages
A connector assembly controllably couples a plurality of containers in a box. Each container has a fitment having a channel. The connector assembly includes a valve assembly and an actuator. The valve assembly is movable between an unengaged position and an engaged position. The valve assembly includes a plurality of fitment receptacles. Each fitment receptacle is associated with a respective fitment. A liquid flow channel of the valve assembly couples the fitment receptacles to the outlet. The actuator is movable between an unlocked position and a locked position. The valve assembly is configured to move from the unengaged position to the engaged movement in response to movement of the actuator from the unlocked to locked positions. The fitments are inserted into the respective fitment receptacles in response to movement of the valve assembly from the unengaged position to the engaged position.
PORTABLE SPIRIT DISPENSER
A spirit dispenser that includes a cabinet that includes a back panel facing an interior of the cabinet, and a plurality of shelves, each shelf being able to support thereon a plurality of spirit containers; at least one spirit dispenser system integrated with the cabinet; and a plurality of pumps residing on an interior surface of the pack panel of the cabinet, each pump being connected to a first tube that includes a tap connector configured for connection to a tap of a spirit container supportable on one of the shelves of the cabinet, and a second tube that is connected to the spirit dispenser.
Water taking device for barreled water bucket
The present disclosure provides a water taking device for a barreled water bucket. The water taking device includes a fixing apparatus. One end of the fixing apparatus is fixedly connected with a bucket opening of the barreled water bucket. The aperture size of the fixing apparatus is adjustable to adapt to bucket openings of barreled water buckets having different apertures. As the fixing apparatus and the bucket opening of the barreled water bucket are fixedly connected, and the aperture of the fixing apparatus is adjustable to adapt to the bucket openings of the barreled water buckets having different apertures, the present disclosure may ensure that the water taking device may take water from the barreled water bucket successfully under a stably connected environment to facilitate use by a user.
Portable spirit dispenser
A spirit dispenser that includes a cabinet that includes a back panel facing an interior of the cabinet, and a plurality of shelves, each shelf being able to support thereon a plurality of spirit containers; at least one spirit dispenser system integrated with the cabinet; and a plurality of pumps residing on an interior surface of the pack panel of the cabinet, each pump being connected to a first tube that includes a tap connector configured for connection to a tap of a spirit container supportable on one of the shelves of the cabinet, and a second tube that is connected to the spirit dispenser.
COAXIAL BEVERAGE KEG CONNECTOR COMPRISING A BALL JOINT
An coaxial keg connector comprising a main body (1) made of plastic and having a first inlet port (3) and a second inlet port (3) receiving a stem (2). A coaxial outlet (10) comprises an outer outlet port (11) in communication with the first inlet port (3) and an inner outlet port (12) in communication with the second inlet port. The stem (2) comprises a tubular body with a main axis (31) with an inlet and a connector for attachment to the keg at one end. The second end of the stem opposite to the first end has an outlet in fluid communication with the inner outlet port (12) and comprises a ball joint (61) rotatably mounted in and sealed with respect to the main body (1) so as to be rotatable (12) about the main axis (31) of the tubular body and rotatable (67, 68) to a limited extent about axes perpendicular to the main axis.
