Embodiment Construction

[0016] Referring to Figures 1 and 2, a home beer dispensing device, device or unit 10 is shown. The dispensing unit 10 is primarily intended for use in domestic kitchens, but may also be used in utility rooms, garages, home bars, caravans and the like. Although the preferred embodiment involves dispensing beer, other carbonated solutions or other alcoholic beverages can be dispensed with the device 10 as well.

[0017] The home beer dispensing device 10 has a front wall 12 and a dispensing tap 14 protruding forward of the front wall 12 . A drip tray 16 also protrudes forward of the front wall 12 and is adapted to support an open glass container 18 below the dispensing tap. The home beer dispensing device 10 also has a base 21 adapted to rest on a kitchen counter. The front wall 12 acts as an extension of two pivoting side walls 20 which can be moved between closed and open positions so that a container or keg 22 (see dashed lines in FIG. 2 ) can be inserted into the housing ...

Abstract

A beer keg for storing a beer under pressure has an outer wall and a pressure relief passageway extending through an outer wall of the beer keg. The beer keg has a bursting disk seated in the passageway normally closing the passageway. The disk is adapted to rupture permitting fluid to escape from the beer keg through the passageway when the pressure in the beer keg exceeds a predetermined pressure value. The keg has a releasable cap mounted thereto that covers the passageway. The releasable cap has vent openings that permit the escape of fluid from the passageway. The cap is releasable to permit access to the passageway for changing the bursting disk. Preferably, a pressure build up in the keg in excess of about 7 bar results in the bursting disk rupturing.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an alcoholic beverage container having a burst disk for relieving a high pressure condition. Background technique [0002] It is known to serve liquor, such as wine, in pockets contained within cardboard-type containers. Furthermore, it is also known to store the beer in the bag by inserting it into the keg. In the case of a beer keg, pressure is applied to the bag to dispense beer from the bag and out of the keg through the valve body assembly. Additionally, the bag is inserted into the keg container before beer is filled into the bag through the valve body assembly. [0003] In the step of filling the bag with beer, the beer is filled into the bag under pressure. As the bag expands, air contained within the container between the container wall and the bag escapes through another valved opening in the container. Once the bag is full of beer, the valve closes. In some cases, if the bag is overfilled, the carbonated...
