Abstract
Description
Vorrichtung zum Herstellen von mit Kohlendioxid versetztem Tafelwasser Device for producing carbonated water
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zum Herstellen von mit Kohlendioxid versetztem Tafelwasser nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The invention relates to a device for producing carbonated water, according to the preamble of claim 1.
Als Alternative zu dem Kauf von fertigem Sprudel ist es bekannt, daE man den Sprudel auch zu Hause in entsprechenden Sprudelgeräten herstellen kann. Zu diesem Zweck wird aus dem Wasserhahn stammendes Wasser in dem Gerät mit Kohlendioxid versetzt. Auf diese Weise erhält man ohne großen technischen Aufwand Tafelwasser.As an alternative to the purchase of ready-made soda, it is known that you can also make the soda at home in the corresponding bubbler. For this purpose, water coming from the tap is mixed with carbon dioxide in the device. In this way, table water is obtained without great technical effort.
Die bisher bekannten Geräte zum Herstellen von mit Kohlendioxid versetztem Tafelwasser für den Hausgebrauch haben vor allem den Nachteil, daß nur ungekühltes Tafelwasser zur Verfügung gestellt wird. Um das Tafelwasser zu kühlen, ist es notwendig, es nach dem Zapfen in den Kühlschrank zu stellen. Ein weiterer Nachteil bei den bekannten Geräten besteht in dem erhöhten Platzbedarf in der Küche sowie weiterhin in der aufwendigen Handhabung. Schließlich können pro Herstellungsvorgang nur begrenzte Mengen an Tafelwasser erzeugt werden.The previously known devices for producing carbonated table water for household use have the disadvantage that only uncooled table water is provided. To cool the table water, it is necessary to put it in the refrigerator after tapping. Another disadvantage of the known devices is the increased space requirement in the kitchen and the extensive handling. Finally, only limited amounts of table water can be produced per manufacturing process.
Der Erfindung liegt die A u f g a e zugrunde, eine einfache Möglichkeit zum Bereitstellen von gekühltem Tafelwasser zu schaffen.The invention is based on the objective of providing a simple possibility for providing chilled table water.
Die technische L ö s u n g ist gekennzeichnet durch die Merkmale im Kennzeichen des Anspruchs 1.The technical solution is characterized by the features in the characterizing part of claim 1.
Die Grundidee der Erfindung besteht darin, die gesamte Anlage zum Herstellen von mit Kohlendioxid versetztem Tafelwasser in einem herkömmlichen Kühlschrank zu integrieren. Dazu gehören der Vorratstank für das Wasser, die Kohlendioxid-Flasche, der Karbonisator, die Pumpe sowie die Ausschankeinrichtung. Der Vorteil des erfindungsgemäßen Gerätes besteht darin, daß es nicht mit einem zusätzlichen Kühlaggregat versehen werden muß, um gekühltes Tafelwasser zu erhalten, sondern daß das Gerät in einem Küchengerät integriert wird, welches bereits in der Küche vorhanden ist, nämlich in dem Kühlschrank. Da das Tafelwasser-Gerät in dem Kühlschrank integriert ist, benötigt es darüber hinaus keinen zusätzlichen Platz in der Küche. Die Handhabung ist insgesamt leicht und der Ausschank in Flaschen, Gläser, Becher etc. möglich, wobei unterschiedliche Mengen pro Herstellungsvorgang erzeugt werden können. Die Erfindung ist somit für alle Privathaushalte mit Kühlschrank geeignet und einsetzbar. Eine bevorzugte Weiterbildung schlägt gemäß Anspruch 2 vor, daß die Vorrichtung in der Kühlschranktür integriert ist. Der Vorteil besteht darin, daß zum einen die Aggregate des Tafeiwasserherstellungsgerätes leicht zugänglich sind, wenn beispielsweise die Kohlendioxid-Flasche ausgetauscht werden muß, und daß zum anderen die Zapfstelle von außen zugänglich ist und in der Kühlschranktür integriert werden kann.The basic idea of the invention is to integrate the entire system for producing carbonated water in a conventional refrigerator. These include the storage tank for the water, the carbon dioxide bottle, the carbonator, the pump and the dispensing system. The advantage of the device according to the invention is that it does not have to be provided with an additional cooling unit in order to obtain cooled table water, but that the device is integrated into a kitchen device which is already present in the kitchen, namely in the refrigerator. Since the bottled water device is integrated in the refrigerator, it does not require any additional space in the kitchen. Overall, handling is easy and serving in bottles, glasses, cups etc. is possible, whereby different quantities can be produced per manufacturing process. The invention is therefore suitable and usable for all private households with a refrigerator. A preferred further development proposes, according to claim 2, that the device is integrated in the refrigerator door. The advantage is that, on the one hand, the units of the table water production device are easily accessible when, for example, the carbon dioxide bottle has to be replaced, and on the other hand the tap is accessible from the outside and can be integrated in the refrigerator door.
Vorzugsweise ist gemäß der Weiterbildung in Anspruch 3 die Vorrichtung in einem der beiden Seitenbereiche der Kühlschranktür angeordnet. Dabei kann die gesamte Höhe der Kühlschranktür ausgenutzt werden. Der Rest der Kühlschranktür steht dann für die "herkömmlichen" Kühlgegenstände wie beispielsweise Flaschen zur Verfügung.According to the development in claim 3, the device is preferably arranged in one of the two side regions of the refrigerator door. The entire height of the refrigerator door can be used. The rest of the refrigerator door is then available for the "conventional" cooling items such as bottles.
Es ist grundsätzlich denkbar, daß das hergestellte Tafelwasser in einem Behältnis innerhalb des Kühlschranks aufbewahrt und zur Entnahme von Tafelwasser dieses Behältnis aus dem Kühlschrank herausgenommen wird. Die Weiterbildung gemäß Anspruch 4 schlägt jedoch eine Zapfstelle vor. Dadurch ist ein einfacher, bedarfsgerechter Ausschank beispielsweise in Gläser möglich.It is fundamentally conceivable that the bottled water produced is kept in a container inside the refrigerator and this container is removed from the refrigerator for the removal of bottled water. The development according to claim 4, however, proposes a tap. This enables simple, needs-based serving, for example in glasses.
Die Weiterbildung hiervon gemäß Anspruch 5 hat den Vorteil, daß die Zapfstelle im Inneren der Kühlschranktür integriert ist und somit nicht störend über die Frontfläche der Kühlschranktür übersteht.The development of this according to claim 5 has the advantage that the tap is integrated in the interior of the refrigerator door and thus does not protrude over the front surface of the refrigerator door.
Eine bevorzugte Weiterbildung hiervon schlägt gemäß Anspruch 6 vor, daß das Behältnis in die Ausnehmung hineinstellbar ist. Dadurch ist eine einfache Möglichkeit geschaffen, beispielsweise ein Glas mit dem Tafelwasser zu befüllen, indem es in die dafür vorgesehene Aussparung in der Vorderfront der Kühlschranktür hineingestellt wird (wie dies die Weiterbildung gemäß Anspruch 7 vorschlägt), um dann anschließend den Abfüllvorgang durchzuführen.A preferred development of this proposes that the container can be inserted into the recess. This creates a simple possibility, for example to fill a glass with the table water by placing it in the recess provided in the front of the refrigerator door (as suggested by the further development according to claim 7), in order to then carry out the filling process.
Es ist grundsätzlich denkbar, einen bestimmten Vorrat an bereits mit Kohlendioxid versetztem Tafelwasser im Kühlschrank zu lagern. Es ist aber auch denkbar, daß das Wasser gemäß der Weiterbildung in Anspruch 8 bedarfsweise beim Zapfen des Tafelwassers mit dem Kohlendioxid versetzt wird. Dies hat den Vorteil, daß sich das Kohlendioxid nicht im Laufe der Zeit bei länger stehendem Tafelwasser verflüchtigen kann und sich somit die Konzentration erniedrigt.It is basically conceivable to store a certain supply of table water already mixed with carbon dioxide in the refrigerator. However, it is also conceivable that the water is mixed with the carbon dioxide as required when tapping the table water. This has the advantage that the carbon dioxide cannot volatilize over time with table water that has been standing for a long time, and the concentration is thus reduced.
Um das notwendige Wasser bereitzustellen, ist es gemäß Anspruch 9 denkbar, einen Wasser-Vorratsbehälter vorzusehen. In diesem Vorratsbehälter ist das Wasser ständig gekühlt. Eine weitere Weiterbildung schlägt gemäß Anspruch 10 vor, daß die Vorrichtung an das Wassernetz des Gebäudes angeschlossen ist. Dies hat den Vorteil, daß die Bereitstellung des für die Kohlendioxidanreicherung benötigten Wassers sehr vereinfacht ist. Es wird dabei nicht unbedingt ein Wasser-Vorratsbehälter benötigt, so daß dieser Platz innerhalb des Kühlschrankes anderweitig genutzt werden kann, sondern das Wasser kann gleichzeitig während des Zapfens aus dem Wassernetz entnommen und mit dem Kohlendioxid versetzt werden. Bei dem Anschluß an das häusliche Wassernetz kann das Wasser vor (bei der Verwendung eines Wasser-Vorratsbehälters) oder während des Zapfens (ohne die Verwendung eines Wasser-Vorratsbehälters) gekühlt werden, was beispielsweise dadurch erreicht werden kann, daß die Wasserzuleitung an dem Kühlaggregat des Kühlschranks vorbeigeführt wird.To provide the necessary water, it is conceivable according to claim 9 to provide a water reservoir. The water in this reservoir is constantly cooled. A further development proposes according to claim 10 that the device is connected to the water network of the building. This has the advantage that the provision of the water required for the carbon dioxide enrichment is very simplified. It is not absolutely necessary to have a water storage container so that this space inside the refrigerator can be used for other purposes, but the water can be removed from the water network and tapped with the carbon dioxide at the same time. When connected to the domestic water network, the water can be cooled before (when using a water storage container) or during dispensing (without using a water storage container), which can be achieved, for example, by connecting the water supply to the cooling unit of the Fridge is passed.
Eine weitere Weiterbildung gemäß Anspruch 11 schlägt vor, daß zum Steuern des Befüll- vorganges Tasten vorgesehen sind. Mit diesen Tasten kann der Befüllvorgang ausgelöst und bei Erreichen des gewünschten Füllstandes wieder beendet werden. Diese Tasten können in der Frontfläche der Kühlschranktür integriert sein. Alternativ kann selbstverständlich auch ein manuell bedienbarer Ausschankhahn zum Einsatz kommen.A further development according to claim 11 proposes that keys are provided for controlling the filling process. The filling process can be triggered with these keys and can be ended when the desired level is reached. These buttons can be integrated in the front surface of the refrigerator door. Alternatively, of course, a manually operated tap can also be used.
Schließlich schlägt die Weiterbildung gemäß Anspruch 12 vor, daß eine Anzeige vorgesehen ist. Diese Anzeige kann beispielsweise die Temperatur oder aber das Restvolumen an Wasser anzeigen.Finally, the development according to claim 12 proposes that an advertisement is provided. This display can show, for example, the temperature or the remaining volume of water.
Ein Ausführungsbeispiel einer erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung zum Herstellen von mit Kohlendioxid versetztem Tafelwasser wird nachfolgend anhand der Zeichnungen beschrieben. In diesen zeigt:An embodiment of an apparatus according to the invention for producing carbonated water is described below with reference to the drawings. In these shows:
Fig. 1 eine Ansicht der Innenseite einer Kühlschranktür mit abgenommener Abdeckung des Tafelwassergerätes;Figure 1 is a view of the inside of a refrigerator door with the cover of the bottled water device removed.
Fig. 2 eine Ansicht der Außenseite der Kühlschranktür in Fig. 1.FIG. 2 is a view of the outside of the refrigerator door in FIG. 1.
Im rechten Drittel einer Kühlschranktür 1 (der eigentliche Kühlschrank ist nicht dargestellt) befindet sich ein Gerät zum Herstellen von mit Kohlendioxid versetztem Tafelwasser. Zu diesem Zweck ist ein Wasser-Vorratsbehälter 2 mit einem Volumen von beispielsweise 5 Liter in der Kühlschranktür 1 integriert. Außerdem ist eine Kohlendioxid-Flasche 3 neben dem Wasser-Vorratsbehälter 2 in der Kühlschranktür 1 untergebracht. Darüber befindet sich eine Mischeinrichtung 4 sowie eventuell eine Pumpe 5. Darunter befindet sich eine Ausschankmechanik 6. Die vorbeschriebenen Einrichtungen sind mit einer nicht dargestellten Abdeckung abgedeckt, welche bedarfsweise entfernt, beispielsweise aufgeklappt werden kann.In the right third of a refrigerator door 1 (the actual refrigerator is not shown) there is a device for producing carbonated water. For this purpose, a water storage container 2 with a volume of, for example, 5 liters is integrated in the refrigerator door 1. In addition, a carbon dioxide bottle 3 is placed next to the water reservoir 2 in the refrigerator door 1. A mixing device 4 and possibly a pump 5 are located above it. A dispensing mechanism 6 is located underneath. The devices described above are provided with a not shown Covered, which can be removed if necessary, for example, opened.
Die Vorderseite der Kühlschranktür 1 (Fig. 2) zeigt im unteren Bereich eine Ausnehmung 7. Diese definiert mit einem Zapfstutzen 8 eine Zapfstelle 9 für das Tafelwasser. Im oberen Bereich befinden sich noch zwei Tasten 10 sowie eine Anzeige 11.The front of the refrigerator door 1 (FIG. 2) shows a recess 7 in the lower area. This defines with a tap 8 a tap 9 for the bottled water. In the upper area there are two buttons 10 and a display 11.
Die Funktionsweise dieses in der Kühlschranktür 11 integrierten Gerätes zum Herstellen von mit Kohlendioxid versetztem Tafelwasser ist wie folgt:The mode of operation of this device integrated in the refrigerator door 11 for producing carbonated water is as follows:
Es sei davon ausgegangen, daß der Wasser-Vorratsbehälter 2 mit Wasser gefüllt und die Kohlendioxid-Flasche 3 mit Kohlendioxid gefüllt ist. Da sich der Wasser-Vorratsbehälter 2 im Kühlschrank befindet, ist das darin befindliche Wasser gekühlt.It is assumed that the water reservoir 2 is filled with water and the carbon dioxide bottle 3 is filled with carbon dioxide. Since the water reservoir 2 is in the refrigerator, the water in it is cooled.
Zur Entnahme von Tafelwasser wird ein Glas in die Ausnehmung 7 der Zapfstelle 9 unterhalb des Zapfstutzens 8 gestellt. Durch Betätigen einer der beiden Tasten 10 wird Wasser zur Zapfstelle 9 gepumpt und dabei gleichzeitig in der Mischeinrichtung 4 dem Wasser Kohlendioxid zugeführt. Durch Betätigen der anderen Taste 10 kann der Befüllvorgang beendet werden. Die Funktion kann auch von einer einzigen Taste übernommen werden. To remove table water, a glass is placed in the recess 7 of the tap 9 below the tap 8. By pressing one of the two buttons 10, water is pumped to the tap 9 and at the same time carbon dioxide is supplied to the water in the mixing device 4. The filling process can be ended by pressing the other key 10. The function can also be performed by a single button.
