BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Field of Invention

The present invention relates to the technical field of beverage equipment, and particularly to a water cooled draft beer machine.

Related Art

With the progress of the times, and the improvement of people's quality of life, people have a higher requirement for drinking beer. It has been difficult for canned or bottled beer to meet people's drink demand, and more and more people hope they could drink fresh, hygiene, palatable and pure draft beer. A draft beer machine is a device to cool the beer. Traditional draft beer machines are used in coordination with the carbon dioxide cylinder and casks. Beer at normal temperature is stored in the casks, and by applying the pressure from the carbon dioxide cylinder, the beer in the cask will be pressed out and flows into the draft beer machine. The draft beer machine will refrigerate the beer passing through it, and then beer flows out of the draft beer machine and arrives at the tap. People drink beer as soon as they open the tap.

One prior art device comprises a gas cylinder, a water purification device, a cleaning tank, a beer cask, a refrigeration system, a heat exchanger and a beer dispensing section. The gas cylinder is connected to the intake valve pipe of the cleaning tank, the gas cylinder is connected to the intake valve pipe of the beer cask, the water purification equipment is connected to the reversing valve pipe of the cleaning tank, and the reversing valve of the cleaning tank is connected to the reversing valve pipe of the beer cask. The reversing valve of the beer cask is connected to the heat exchanger pipe, the heat exchanger is connected to the pipe of the beer dispensing section, and the heat exchanger is placed inside the refrigeration system. This draft beer machine organically combines the cleaning management and refrigeration, and achieves refrigeration and cleaning quickly. This not only ensures the beer is cool, but also and more importantly ensures the freshness.

Although this draft beer machine can achieve the refrigeration of beer, it has the disadvantage of slow refrigeration speed. Specifically, this draft beer machine cools the water in the water tank by the compressor, and the beer pipe is located inside the water tank. Therefore, when beer passes through the beer pipe, it is refrigerated. Since beer in the cask was at a normal temperature originally, when it flows by the water tank quickly, it is hard for the water tank to refrigerate beer quickly. The refrigeration effect to beer is poor.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

One objective of one embodiment of the present invention is to avoid the issues stated above in the prior art, and to provide a water cooled draft beer machine. The water cooled draft beer machine has a fairly good refrigeration effect.

One objective of one embodiment of the present invention can be achieved by the following technical proposal:

A water cooled draft beer machine comprises a cabinet, and there is a refrigeration circuit inside the cabinet, including a compressor, a condenser and refrigeration tubes. A water tank is arranged inside the cabinet, and the refrigeration tubes are coiled inside the water tank. Inside the cabinet, there is a cold storage chamber used to hold the cask. A beer pipe is arranged inside the cabinet to connect to the cask, and a beer tap is connected to the outside of the cabinet. The beer pipe coils inside the water tank, and the outlet end of the beer pipe is connected to the beer tap. It is characterized in that:

A refrigeration box is arranged in the cold storage chamber, and the cold water tube coils inside the refrigeration box. The inlet end and the outlet end of the cold water tube are both connected to the water tank. A power mechanism is arranged in the cabinet to drive water in the water tank to circulate in the cold water tube. An air inlet and an air outlet are set up on the refrigeration box, and both of the air inlet and the air outlet are connected to the cold storage chamber. A fan is arranged inside the refrigeration box to drive air to circulate between the refrigeration box and the cold storage chamber.

The cask is placed in the cold storage chamber. The inlet end of the beer pipe is connected to the cask, and the outlet end of the beer pipe is connected to the beer tap. When the beer tap opens, the beer in the cask will be pressed out. The cooling medium in the refrigeration circuit circulates in the refrigeration tubes. The refrigeration tubes coil in the water tank, have a fairly long running path, and can refrigerate the water in the water tank. The beer pipe is immersed in the water tank and coils with several turns, so beer will be refrigerated when it passes through the beer pipe in the water tank. Meanwhile, the power mechanism can make the cold water in the water tank circulate in the cold water tube, and the cold water tube coils in the refrigeration box, which also has a long running path. Therefore, the cold water tube can refrigerate the air in the refrigeration box. The fan can make the air circulate between the refrigeration box and the cold storage chamber. Namely, the cold air in the refrigeration box is blown into the cold storage chamber via the air outlet, and the air in the cold storage chamber will return to the refrigeration box via the air inlet, so the cold storage chamber has a fairly low ambient temperature and it refrigerates the whole cask. That means that the beer in the cask has been pre-cooled before it is pressed out, and then it is water cooled again by the water tank during the discharge process, so that the refrigeration effect to the beer is improved. Further, in order to achieve a fairly good refrigeration effect to the beer passing through the water tank, the water temperature in the water tank is fairly low. Also, by refrigerating the air in the refrigeration box with the cold water in the water tank, the cooling capacity of the cold water in the water tank is fully utilized.

In the water cooled draft beer machine, the power mechanism comprises a stirring motor fixed to the water tank. A volute is fixed to the inside of the water tank, and a water inlet and a water outlet are set up on the volute. An impeller is fixed to the motor shaft of stirring motor. The impeller is located in the volute and the impeller is opposite the water inlet. The inlet end of the cold water tube is connected to the water outlet of the volute, and the stirring blades are also connected to the motor shaft of the stirring motor. The stirring motor stirs water in the water tank with the stirring blades, in order to avoid the freezing of the water in the water tank. The volute and the impeller are both immersed in the water. The motor shaft of the stirring motor drives the impeller to rotate, and the impeller can pump cold water from the water tank into the volute and make it circulate in the cold water tube. The cold water enters the water tank again after passing by the refrigeration box. This forms a circulation of water, ensures the refrigeration of the air in the refrigeration box. Hence this ensures that the cold storage chamber maintains a fairly low ambient temperature, and improves the refrigeration effect.

In the water cooled draft beer machine, the power mechanism comprises a water pump fixed to the inside of the water tank, and the cold water tube is connected to the water pump. The stirring motor is also fixed to the inside of the water tank, and the stirring blades are also arranged on the motor shaft of the stirring motor. The water pump is a relatively common fluid power unit, which can pump cold water from the water tank into the cold water tube and hence forms the circulation of water. The stirring motor stirs water in the water tank through the stirring blades, so as to avoid the freezing of the water.

In the water cooled draft beer machine, a partition is fixed to the inside of the cabinet. The outside of the partition forms the cold storage chamber, and the inside of the partition and the cabinet form a closed space. The water tank is arranged inside the closed space. The refrigeration box is flat. One side of the refrigeration box is fixed to the outer side face of the partition, while the air outlet and air inlet are set up on the other side face of the refrigeration box. The ambient temperature around the water tank is fairly low, so part of the cooling capacity will be transferred to the partition, and hence the cooling capacity will be directly transferred to the cold storage chamber. The refrigeration box is opposite the water tank. The water tank is flat and has a fairly large contact area with the partition, so the refrigeration box will also be affected by the refrigeration of the water tank, so as to improve the refrigeration effect to the refrigeration box and the air in the cold storage chamber.

In the water cooled draft beer machine, a beer tower is connected to the top of the cabinet, and the beer tap is connected to the upper end of the beer tower. The beer pipe passes through the beer tower and connects the beer tap. The cold water tube enters into the beer tower from the lower end of the beer tower, folds and then extends from the lower end of the beer tower. The section of the cold water tube entering into the beer tower abuts the beer pipe, while the cold water tube extends from the beer tower and coils inside the refrigeration box. The cold water tube has a relatively low temperature, folds into two segments in the beer tower, and adheres to the beer pipe. It can refrigerate the beer pipe, hence fully exerts the refrigeration effect of the cold water tube, and further improves the refrigeration effect to beer.

In the water cooled draft beer machine, the inlet end of the cold water tube is the end which coils inside the refrigeration box, or the inlet end of the cold water tube is the end which enters into the beer tower. Namely, the cold water entering the cold water tube can first pass by the beer tower and then pass by the refrigeration box. Of course, a reverse design is also applicable.

In the water cooled draft beer machine, the fan comprises a shaft rotatably connected to the inside of the refrigeration box. The air inlet and the air outlet are both in a long stripped shape, and the lengthwise direction of both of the air inlet and the air outlet are along the transversal direction of the refrigeration box. The lengthwise direction of the shaft is the same as the lengthwise direction of the air outlet, and the shaft is opposite the air outlet. There are several blades on the outer wall of the shaft, and one end of the shaft is connected to the drive motor. The air inlet and the air outlet are both in a long stripped shape, allowing the air in the refrigeration box to be able to cover the upper part of the cold storage chamber in the direction of width, when blown into the cold storage chamber. The length of the refrigeration section can be fully utilized when the air enters the refrigeration box, which improves the refrigeration effect. The shaft is directly opposite the air outlet. When it rotates, the air is pushed out of the air outlet by the blades.

In the water cooled draft beer machine, two plate shaped connecting brackets are fixed to the inside of the refrigeration box. Two ends of the shaft are connected to the two connecting brackets through bearings respectively, and the drive motor is fixed to one of the connecting brackets. The connection and location of the shaft and the drive motor are achieved by the two connecting brackets. The structure is simple and compact.

In the water cooled draft beer machine, the cold water tube bends and coils in the refrigeration box, forming several refrigeration sections in a strip shape and parallel to each other. These refrigeration sections are arranged in the vertical direction, and in two columns. Two ends of the refrigeration sections extend in the transversal direction, to the two edges of the refrigeration box respectively. The cold water needs to pass through several refrigeration sections. The refrigeration sections are arranged in a successive and parallel manner, and have a long running path inside the refrigeration box, so it has a fairly good refrigeration effect to the air in the refrigeration box.

In the water cooled draft beer machine, the air inlet is opposite the lower refrigeration sections or below the lower refrigeration sections, and the air outlet is opposite the upper refrigeration section or above the upper refrigeration sections. The air is blown from the upper part of refrigeration box into the cold storage chamber, and then returns to the refrigeration box from the lower part of the refrigeration box. This makes the air flow from top to bottom in the cold storage chamber, and flow from bottom to top in the refrigeration box, forming an orderly circulative air flow. Also, the orderly air flow can successively pass through several refrigeration sections, fully exerts the refrigeration effect of every refrigeration section, ensures that the cold storage chamber maintains a fairly low ambient temperature, and improves the refrigeration effect to beer.

Compared to the prior art, one embodiment of the present water cooled draft beer machine has the following advantages:

1. Since the cool air circulates between the refrigeration box and the cold storage chamber, the cold storage chamber has a fairly low ambient temperature and it refrigerates the whole cask. That means that the beer in the cask has been pre-cooled before it is pressed out, and then it is water cooled again by the water tank during the discharge process, so that the refrigeration effect to the beer is improved.

2. Since the cold water needs to pass through several refrigeration sections after entering the cold water tube from the inlet end, and the refrigeration sections are arranged in a successive and parallel manner, it has a long running path inside the refrigeration box, so it has a fairly good refrigeration effect to the air in the refrigeration box.

3. Since the cold water tube enters the beer tower and adheres to the beer pipe, it can refrigerate the beer pipe in the beer tower, hence fully exerts the refrigeration effect of the cold water tube, and further improves the refrigeration effect to beer.

4. Since the air in the refrigeration box is refrigerated by the cold water in the water tank, the cooling capacity of the cold water in the water tank will be fully utilized.

A door (11) is hinged to one side of the cabinet (1), and a beer tap (13) is connected to the top of the cabinet (1). Inside the cabinet (1), there is a beer pipe (14) used to connect to the cask (8), and the outlet end of the beer pipe (14) is connected to the beer tap (13). A partition (15) is fixed to the inside of the cabinet (1), and the partition (15) is opposite the door (11). The outside of the partition (15) forms a cold storage chamber (16). The cold storage chamber (16) is used to hold the cask (8), and the inlet end of the beer pipe (14) is connected to the cask (8). The inside of the partition (15) and the cabinet (1) form a closed space. The water tank (17) is fixed to the inside of the closed space, and the water tank (17) is located inside the partition (15).

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 5 and FIG. 6, a volute (51) is fixed to the inside of the water tank (17). A water inlet and a water outlet are set up on the volute (51). The motor shaft of the stirring motor (5) passes through the volute (51), and the extending end is fixed with the stirring blades (53), to stir water in the water tank (17). An impeller (52) is also fixed to the motor shaft of the stirring motor (5). The impeller (52) is located inside the volute (51), and the impeller (52) is opposite the water inlet. The inlet end of the cold water tube (4) is connected to the water outlet of the volute (51). The impeller (52) pumps water from the water tank (17) into the volute (51) and the water circulates in the cold water tube (4). Cold water enters the water tank (17) again after passing by the refrigeration box (3), forming a circulation of water.

As shown in FIG. 7 and FIG. 8, the refrigeration box (3) is flat, and the partition (15) is bent into a shape of a step. The bottom of the refrigeration box (3) presses against the step face, and the inner side of the refrigeration box (3) adheres to and is fixed to the outer side of the partition (15). The water tank is located inside the partition (15), so the water tank (17) is opposite the refrigeration box (3). The cold water tube (4) bends and coils in the refrigeration box (3), forming several refrigeration sections (41) in a strip shape. These refrigeration sections (41) are parallel to each other, and these refrigeration sections (41) are arranged in the vertical direction, and in two columns. The top refrigeration section (41) is connected to the water inlet of the cold water tube (4), while the bottom refrigeration section (41) is connected to the water outlet of the cold water tube (4). Two ends of the refrigeration sections (41) extend in the transversal direction, to the two edges of the refrigeration box (3) respectively. The air inlet (31) and the air outlet (32) are both in a long stripped shape, and the lengthwise direction of both of the air inlet (31) and the air outlet (32) are along the transversal direction of the refrigeration box (3). The air outlet (32) is located in the upper part of the outer side wall of the refrigeration box (3) and the air outlet (32) is above the upper refrigeration sections (41). The air inlet (31) is located in the lower part of the outer side wall of the refrigeration box (3) and the air inlet (31) is below the lower refrigeration sections (41). Of course, during the real machining process, the air inlet (31) may be opposite the lower refrigeration sections (41), and the air outlet (32) may be opposite the upper refrigeration sections (41).

As shown in FIG. 8 and FIG. 9, the fan (6) comprises a shaft (61). There are long stripped blades (62) on the outer wall of the shaft (61). The blades (62) are arranged in the circumferential direction, and the lengthwise direction of the blades (62) is the same as that of the shaft (61). Two plate shaped connecting brackets (33) are fixed to the inside of the refrigeration box (3). Two ends of the shaft (61) are connected to the two connecting brackets (33) through bearings respectively. The lengthwise direction of the shaft (61) is the same as the lengthwise direction of the air outlet (32), and the shaft (61) is opposite the air outlet (32). A drive motor (63) is fixed to one of the connecting brackets (33), and the drive motor (63) is fixed to the shaft (61).

Second Embodiment

A water pump (7) is fixed to the inside of the water tank (17), and the cold water tube (4) is connected to the water pump (7). A water pump (7) is a relatively common fluid power unit, which can pump cold water from the water tank (17) into the cold water tube (4) and hence forms the circulation of water.

Third Embodiment

The structure of the water cooled draft beer machine is basically the same as that of the First Embodiment. The differences are shown in FIG. 11:

A beer tower (12) is connected to the top of the cabinet (1), and the beer tap (13) is connected to the upper end of the beer tower (12). The beer pipe (14) passes through the beer tower (12) and connects the beer tap (13). A section of the inlet end of the cold water tube (4) enters the beer tower (12) from the lower end of the beer tower (12), folds and then extends from the lower end of the beer tower (12). The section of the cold water tube (4) entering the beer tower (12) abuts the beer pipe (14). The cold water tube (4) has a relatively low temperature and water from the water tank (17) and just entering the cold water tube (4) has a relatively low temperature, so the cold water tube (4) can also refrigerate the beer pipe (14) inside the beer tower (12), and hence the refrigeration effect to beer is further improved.

Fourth Embodiment

The structure of the water cooled draft beer machine is basically the same as that of the First Embodiment. The differences are shown in FIG. 12:

A beer tower (12) is connected to the top of the cabinet (1), and the beer tap (13) is connected to the upper end of the beer tower (12). The beer pipe (14) passes through the beer tower (12) and connects the beer tap (13). A section of the cold water tube (4) enters the beer tower (12) from the lower end of the beer tower (12), folds and then extends from the lower end of the beer tower (12). The section of the cold water tube (4) entering the beer tower (12) abuts the beer pipe (14). Water in the cold water tube (4) still has some cooling capacity after passing by the refrigeration box (3), and it can refrigerate the beer pipe inside the beer tower (12) before entering the water tank (17). Hence, the refrigeration effect of the cold water tube (4) is fully exerted, and the refrigeration effect to beer is further improved.
