Definitions
- the present utility model application relates to a device for the refrigerated storage and dispensing of beverages.
- the present invention relates to a device for the refrigerated storage and dispensing of beverages which comprises a thermo-electric group based on the Peltier-effect designed in particular for the storage and refrigeration of dispensable beverages, in particular wine.
- the present authors have developed a device, which is disclosed in the Spanish utility model application no. 200701677 for the non-aggressive refrigeration of wine which does not require a service technician.
- the device comprises refrigeration means consisting basically of a thermo-electric group based on the Peltier-effect on the upper base of a container.
- thermo-electric group based on the Peltier-effect Since the thermo-electric group based on the Peltier-effect is located on the upper base of the container, natural convection is promoted, in other words the cooled liquid increases its density and falls, while the hot liquid rises. However, as the volume of the flexible bag containing the beverage decreases, said liquid is no longer in contact with the thermo-electric group based on the Peltier-effect and heat transfer (cooling) takes place by free convection by means of cold air, which is far less effective that if the liquid to be cooled was in direct contact with the thermo-electric set. Consequently, the cooling time increases significantly.
- thermo-electric group based on the Peltier-effect on the bottom of the device for the refrigerated storage of beverages a better cooling effect was obtained.
- a first object of the present invention is therefore to disclose a more effective thermal energy device with the feature that the cold surface of group based on the Peltier-effect is always in contact with the liquid until said liquid has been drained.
- the device for the refrigerated storage and dispensing of beverages comprises a hollow container which is suitable for housing a package containing the beverage to be refrigerated, supported on the bottom of the container, and also comprises a thermo-electric group based on the Peltier-effect in which the cold surface of said Peltier-effect group is located on the bottom of the container in such a way that it is in contact with the package.
- the device for the refrigerated storage and dispensing of beverages comprises a hollow container, preferably made of wood, in which the envelope for receiving a package for dispensing a beverage consists of side walls, an upper lid and a bottom.
- a Peltier-effect-based device is arranged in this container on the side walls or preferably on the bottom thereof.
- the first container is suitable for containing a package, preferably made of cardboard, with four side walls, a bottom with an opening covered by a removable flap and an upper lid, of which the interior is suitable for housing a flexible bag for containing liquid, provided with an outlet for the beverage.
- thermo-electric group based on the Peltier-effect is fitted to the device by pressure with no screw elements.
- the present invention discloses a device for the refrigerated storage and dispensing of beverages, characterised in that :
- the device for refrigerated storage comprises a hollow container (see also Fig. 2 ) preferably made of wood, which may comprise two side walls 1, 2, an upper lid 3 and a bottom (not shown in Fig. 1 ), which can be located at a particular height above the lower portion of the side walls 1, 2, and a front lid which can be moved vertically along grooves in the side walls, which serve as movement guides.
- a hollow container preferably made of wood, which may comprise two side walls 1, 2, an upper lid 3 and a bottom (not shown in Fig. 1 ), which can be located at a particular height above the lower portion of the side walls 1, 2, and a front lid which can be moved vertically along grooves in the side walls, which serve as movement guides.
- the device for the refrigerated storage of beverages according to the present invention also comprises an inner package 5 which in turn is suitable for housing a flexible bag containing liquid, provided with an outlet 6 for the beverage.
- the first container is provided preferably on the side walls and most preferably on the bottom with Peltier-effect refrigeration means (a system that will not be described in detail as it is already known to persons skilled in the art), as shown in Fig. 6 .
- Peltier-effect refrigeration means a system that will not be described in detail as it is already known to persons skilled in the art
- a portion of the refrigeration means is hidden inside the container and another portion is on the outside thereof, allowing the entry and exit of air to take place appropriately.
- Fig. 3 shows a perspective view of the inner package of the device for the refrigerated storage of beverages according to the present invention.
- the inner package is preferably made of cardboard and is insulated by hot laminating a film of a thermally insulating plastics material.
- Said inner package may consist of four side walls, a bottom with an opening covered by a removable flap 9 and an upper lid which may be in the form of two fold-down flaps 7, 7'.
- Fig. 4 shows a development of a die-cut panel from which can be formed the inner package of the device for the refrigerated storage of beverages according to the present invention.
- the four side walls 8, 10, 11 and 12, the bottom which comprises a removable flap 9 and the upper lid in the form of fold-down flaps 7, 7' can be seen.
- the front side wall 8 may comprise an aperture for the egress of beverage.
- the remaining side walls comprise flaps 13, 14 and 15 used to form the inner package.
- the box may be provided with die-cut lines for tearing one of the faces of the box and the subsequent insertion of a separate flap 9.
- Fig. 5 shows a perspective view of the bottom of the inner package of the device for the refrigerated storage of beverages according to the present invention once formed from the die-cut panel shown in Fig. 4 .
- the inner package of the device for the refrigerated storage of beverages according to the present invention is suitable for housing a bag for containing liquid, made of a flexible material, preferably aluminised polyester, and provided with an outlet for the beverage.
- Said flexible bag for containing liquid, preferably wine, is placed inside said inner cardboard package, which in turn is placed in the container of the device for the refrigerated storage of beverages according to the present invention.
- the removable flap is withdrawn from the bottom of the inner package, as shown in Fig. 7 , in such a way that the cold surface of the thermo-electric group based on the Peltier-effect is in direct contact with the flexible bag containing the beverage to be cooled.
- Fig. 8 shows an embodiment of the device for the refrigerated storage of beverages according to the present invention, ready for use.
- This assembly is suitable for the storage and dispensing of beverages, for example wine, at the optimum temperature.
