A beverage system may include a beverage maker, a vessel, and a liner assembly. The liner assembly may comprise a liner configured for the vessel, an integrated closure mechanism, a flexible tube; and a cuff having an interlock surface. The cuff may be received in at least a portion of the tube thereby securing the liner and the tube. The interlock surface may be configured to provide a first seal between at least the cuff and the liner. The integrated closure mechanism may be configured to provide a second seal on an upper portion of the liner. A method of using same is further provided.

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.

A probe for dispensing a flowable material includes a body having a first end and a second and a passage extending therethrough. The probe has a first engagement portion configured to have a deformed state when the first end of the body is in contact with a dispensing component, and an undeformed state. The probe has a channel having a floor and two walls and is on the first engagement portion. The probe has a second engagement portion to frictionally fit within the dispensing component and to form a seal between the probe and the component. The probe has a locking groove to prevent movement of the probe relative to the dispensing component. In the undeformed state, the walls of the channel are spaced apart at a first distance, and in the deformed state, the walls are spaced apart at a second, smaller distance.

A beverage dispensing system for dispensing alcoholic beverages includes a beverage dispensing package and a connector assembly configured to be coupled to the package. The package includes an outer container and at least one divider positioned within the outer container to form a plurality of compartments. The package also includes a plurality of inner containers, with one of the inner containers positioned within each of the compartments. Each inner container stores an alcoholic beverage and each container includes an outlet to enable the alcoholic beverage to be dispensed. The connector assembly includes a plurality of connectors for coupling to a respective outlet of the inner containers, and a dispensing line coupled to the connectors. The connector assembly couples the inner containers in flow communication with the dispensing line to enable the alcoholic beverages within each of the inner containers to be jointly dispensed through the dispensing line.

A replaceable component for a dispense head includes a first pipe disposed to pass through an inside of a dispense head, a pressing portion capable of pressing a valve body of a beverage supply valve in a beverage container, and a sealing member. The sealing member includes a first sealing portion capable of coming in contact with a beverage outlet of the beverage container, and a membrane connected to the first sealing portion and inhibiting a beverage from adhering to the dispense head.

Provided is a storage container that includes a body that defines an interior of the storage container, and a bag contained within the interior of the storage container. The bag is constructed of an elastomer, includes an opening, and defines a bag interior configured to contain a material. The storage container further includes a material valve assembly coupled to a portion of the body. The material valve assembly is coupled to the bag and configured to selectively provide fluid communication between the bag interior and an external environment of the storage container.

A system for selectively dispensing a portion of liquid volume stored in pressurized environment comprising: an incompressible, pressurized container including hollow housing and outer portion, pressurized container being airtight to maintain pressure level in an environment in housing portion, pressurized container including portal to access to housing portion and storage of compressible container; a dispensing system including transport conduit extending from outer portion to housing portion, interface maintaining pressure level in environment, an end of transport conduit creating sealed connection to compressible container, another end coupled to dispenser, transport conduit including valve to enable or disable flow of liquid volume; a carbonation component coupled to transport conduit to selectively add carbonation to flow according to blending profile; a pressure regulation system connected to pressurized container and includes pressure conduit extending from outer portion into housing portion to compress compressible container; and a control system to selectively open and close valve.

A gas exhaust system particularly designed to collect and exhaust gases, particularly carbon dioxide, from beverage fountain systems where the gasses ordinarily are exhausted to the immediate environment in which the equipment sits, which when an enclosed environment (i.e. a building) may result in a hazardous condition to persons therein.

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.

A system and method for dispensing fluids is introduced. A preferred embodiment comprises a sealed tank, a bag containing fluid inside the sealed tank, an outlet for dispensing the liquid in the bag, and a pressure generating device to create pressure in the sealed tank.
