CA 2696757

A device and method are provided for dispensing a beverage from a pressurized container. The dispensing device includes an integral source of compressed gas for maintaining the beverage within the container at a desired pressurized state. The dispensing device also includes a regulator for controlling the flow of gas from the compressed gas source to the interior of the container, as well as a pressure relief mechanism that accounts for potential over pressurization of the container. The beverage is selectively dispensed by actuation of a tap handle. Delivery is achieved through the device by a resilient delivery tube, and the delivery tube is either pinched closed or allowed to decompress by the actuation of the tap handle. In another embodiment, a check valve is used to control flow of the beverage in which the tap handle activates a transfer rod to seat and unseat a check element. The device can be manufactured in either a unitary construction or a modular construction. Modular construction provides greater flexibility in testing and replacement of defective components.

La présente invention se rapporte à un dispositif et à un procédé de distribution dune boisson à partir dun récipient sous pression. Le dispositif de distribution comprend une source intégrée de gaz comprimé pour maintenir la boisson dans le récipient à un état sous pression souhaité. Le dispositif de distribution comprend également un régulateur servant à commander lécoulement de gaz depuis la source de gaz comprimé vers lintérieur du récipient, ainsi quun mécanisme de soulagement de pression qui tient compte de léventuelle surpression du récipient. La boisson est sélectivement distribuée par lactionnement dune manette de robinet. La distribution est réalisée à travers le dispositif par un tube de distribution élastique, et le tube de distribution est serré fermement ou autorisé à décompresser par lactionnement de la manette de robinet. Dans un autre mode de réalisation, un clapet anti-retour est utilisé pour commander lécoulement de la boisson dans lequel la manette de robinet active une tige de transfert pour accueillir et déloger un élément régulateur. Le dispositif peut être fabriqué selon une construction unitaire ou une construction modulaire. La construction modulaire offre une plus grande souplesse dessai et de remplacement des composants défectueux.
