[0003] Generally, a beverage container includes a barrel body. There is a cavity for holding beverages in the barrel body. A spear is provided at the top of the barrel body, and a tap valve is connected to the spear. When it is necessary to pour out the beverage in the beverage container, an external high-pressure gas cylinder needs to be connected, and high-pressure gas is injected into the cavity of the barrel body through the high-pressure gas cylinder, and the liquor is squeezed out of the barrel body through the tap valve to achieve pouring. That is, the beverage container needs to cooperate with a high-pressure gas cylinder to pour the liquor out of the beverage container. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a beverage container aiming at the above problems existing in the prior art, and the technical problem to be solved is how to make the beverage container pour out liquor smoothly by using atmospheric pressure and the gravity of the beer itself.

[0005] The purpose of the utility model can be realized by the following technical solutions: A beverage container includes a barrel body. A spear is provided at the top of the barrel body. There is a first channel in the spear that can communicate the inside of the barrel body with the outside. It is characterized in that there is also a second channel in the spear that can communicate the inside of the barrel body with the outside. The first channel is arranged around the second channel. An air guide pipe is provided in the barrel body. The top end of the air guide pipe is communicated with the second channel, and the bottom end extends to the bottom inside the barrel body. A valve core structure is provided in the spear to block the first channel and the second channel.

[0006] During storage, the valve core structure cuts off the first channel and the second channel. When in use, the barrel body is inverted, and a tap valve is connected to the spear. The top core in the tap valve pushes open the valve core structure to make the first channel and the second channel conduct. The tap valve is opened, and the outside air is communicated with the bottom of the barrel body through the second channel and the air guide pipe, so that the beer in the barrel body flows out through the first channel and the tap valve under the action of its own gravity, and the beer flows out smoothly. The tap valve is closed to cut off the outflow of the beer. During filling, the beverage container can be filled upright. At this time, the second channel is used for liquor inlet, and the first channel is used for exhaust. The beer is injected into the bottom inside the barrel body through the second channel and the air guide pipe, and the gas in the barrel body is discharged through the first channel. The beverage container can also be filled upside down. At this time, the second channel is used for exhaust, and the first channel is used for liquor inlet. The beer is injected into the barrel body through the first channel, and the gas in the barrel body is discharged through the second channel.

[0007] In the beverage container described above, the middle of the bottom of the barrel body has an extension portion protruding downward, the extension portion has an extension cavity, and the bottom end of the air guide tube is located in the extension cavity. The extension portion is provided to form an extension cavity, so that a small cavity is generated inside the barrel body. When the barrel body is inverted, as little beer as possible enters the air guide tube, so that the beverage container can discharge beer smoothly.

[0008] In the beverage container described above, the outer circumferential side of the extension part is indented inwardly to form a clamping groove, and the beverage container also includes a base, and the base part is embedded in the clamping groove to securely connect the base to the barrel body. This structure enables the extension part to have a dual function, making the base easy to install, and the arrangement of the base allows the barrel body to be placed stably during handling and transportation.

[0009] In the above beverage container, the bottom end of the air guide tube is fixedly connected with a spray head, and the spray head is located in the extension cavity. When cleaning the barrel, the spray head can allow the cleaning liquid to be better sprayed to various positions at the bottom of the barrel, thereby improving the cleaning effect.

[0010] In the above beverage container, the spray head has a first connecting pipe connected to the inside of the spray head, the wine spear has a second connecting pipe connected to the second channel, and the two ends of the air guide pipe are respectively tightly fitted on or inserted on the first connecting pipe and the second connecting pipe. This structure makes it easy to install the air guide pipe.

[0011] In the above beverage container, the valve core structure includes a first valve core, a second valve core and an elastic member, the wine spear has an annular limit groove, the second channel includes a through hole located in the middle of the second valve core, one end of the elastic member acts on the wine spear, and the other end acts on the first valve core, so that the first valve core can block the through hole to cut off the second channel, and the first valve core can push the second valve core to move to cut off the first channel, the second valve core can abut against the bottom of the limit groove to make the first channel conductive, and the first valve core can leave the through hole to make the second channel conductive. The elastic member is a cylindrical spring. In the initial state, the elastic member provides elastic force, pushes the first valve core to press on the second valve core, and blocks the through hole to cut off the second channel, so that the inside of the barrel body cannot be connected to the outside through the air guide pipe and the second channel. At this time, the elastic member continues to provide elastic force, pushes the second valve core to move to a set position through the first valve core, so that the second valve core cuts off the first channel, so that the inside of the barrel body cannot be connected to the outside through the first channel. When in use, the barrel is turned upside down and the beer outlet valve is connected to the beer spear. The top core in the beer outlet valve overcomes the elastic force of the elastic member to push open the first valve core and the second valve core, so that the second valve core rests on the bottom of the limiting groove, the first valve core leaves the through hole, the first channel and the second channel are connected, and the beer outlet valve is opened to achieve the outflow of beer.

[0012] In the above-mentioned beverage container, the second valve core is provided with an annular guide ring, and the guide ring is partially embedded in the limit groove and arranged along the groove wall of the limit groove. A sealing ring is provided between the guide ring and the groove wall of the limit groove, and the first valve core is located inside the guide ring. With this structure, the movement of the second valve core is guided by the limit groove, improving the stability of the valve core structure, thereby enabling the beverage container to discharge wine smoothly.

[0013] In the above-mentioned beverage container, a dust-proof cover is detachably connected to the wine lance. The dust-proof cover cuts off the communication between the first channel and the outside, and also cuts off the communication between the second channel and the outside. The setting of the dust-proof cover plays a role in sealing and dust-proofing, preventing impurities from entering the inside of the barrel during storage and transportation of the barrel. When in use, the dust-proof cover is removed.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, a beverage container provided by the present utility model has the following advantages:

[0015] 1. The beverage container is provided with a first channel and a second channel, which cooperate with the valve core structure and the air guide pipe. When the barrel is inverted, the atmospheric pressure and the gravity of the beer itself are utilized to enable the beverage container to discharge wine smoothly, and the beer in the barrel will not overflow and will not be contaminated by external impurities.

[0016] 2. The beverage container can be filled upright, with the second channel for wine inlet and the first channel for exhaust, or it can be filled upside down, with the second channel for exhaust and the first channel for wine inlet, making it convenient to fill the beverage container with wine.
