Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of wine column technology and relates to a multi-pipe wine column. Background Technology

[0002] The draft beer machine mainly consists of components such as a beer column and a beer keg. The top of the beer column is equipped with a beer tap, and the bottom of the beer column is installed on the beer keg. The beer column has a beer outlet pipe, the top of which is connected to the beer tap, and the bottom of which extends into the beer keg, thereby drawing beer out of the keg through the beer tap and the beer outlet pipe.

[0003] Existing liquor columns, such as the one disclosed in Chinese patent literature [Application No.: 202220651365.0; Authorization Announcement No.: CN217146920U], include a column body extending through both ends, with a faucet installed on the outer wall of the top of the column body. The liquor column also includes a plastic liquor tube, one end of which is connected to a dispensing pipe. The dispensing pipe is detachably connected to the faucet, and the faucet can control the opening and closing of the dispensing pipe. The other end of the plastic liquor tube passes through the column body from top to bottom, and the end of the plastic liquor tube passing through the column body is connected to a connector for connecting to a dispenser.

[0004] This type of liquor column has a single pipe connecting the plastic liquor tube and the dispensing pipe, through which liquor can be dispensed via a tap. However, this type of liquor column only has one pipe, meaning it can only dispense one type of liquor, which limits its usability. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the aforementioned problems in the existing technology by proposing a multi-pipe wine column. The technical problem solved is how to make the wine column have multiple pipes, suitable for the output of various wines.

[0006] The purpose of this utility model can be achieved through the following technical solution: a multi-pipe wine column, including a hollow shell, a main tap on the shell, and an output pipe connected to the main tap inside the shell. The shell is characterized by having several wine spouts and several control buttons corresponding to each spout. The control buttons are used to control the opening and closing of the spouts. The shell contains several wine outlet pipes connected to each spout.

[0007] The main tap and the output pipe form one pipeline, and a wine spout and an output pipe form another pipeline. This gives the wine column multiple pipelines, allowing it to output various wines and making it suitable for various wine barrels. Pressing the control button opens the spout, allowing wine to be output; stopping the press closes the spout, making output easier. Depending on the actual wine output volume, the wine with the highest output volume can be connected to the main tap, or sparkling water can be connected to the main tap.

[0008] In the aforementioned multi-pipe liquor column, the main tap and all the dispensing nozzles are located at the top of the housing. This efficient use of space, placing the main tap and dispensing nozzles at a higher position, facilitates the operator's collection of the liquor.

[0009] In the aforementioned multi-pipe liquor column, all the liquor outlets are spaced horizontally, with the main tap located directly above all the outlets. This design makes efficient use of space and is tailored to the operator's habits and requirements, ensuring convenient use of the liquor column.

[0010] In the aforementioned multi-pipe liquor column, all the control buttons are spaced vertically, located diagonally above the spout, and situated to one side of the main tap. This rational arrangement of the control buttons conforms to the operator's habits, making the liquor column convenient to use.

[0011] In another scenario, in the aforementioned multi-pipe liquor column, all the control buttons are spaced horizontally, each located directly above its corresponding spout, and directly below the main tap. This rational arrangement of the control buttons conforms to the operator's habits, making the liquor column convenient to use.

[0012] In the aforementioned multi-pipe wine column, the housing includes a tube extending through both ends, a top cover, and an annular retaining ring. Several elastic springs are circumferentially fixed to the bottom of the top cover, embedded within the top of the tube. The springs elastically tension against the tube, sealing the top of the tube. The inner ring of the retaining ring is fixed to the bottom of the tube, while the outer ring protrudes circumferentially from the tube. The retaining ring secures the wine column to the barrel, facilitating easy installation and removal of the top cover. The internal structure of the wine column can be easily inspected by removing the top cover.

[0013] In the aforementioned multi-pipe wine column, the cross-section of the pipe is square, and both the top cover and the fixing ring are square.

[0014] In another scenario, in the aforementioned multi-pipe wine column, the cross-section of the pipe is circular, and both the top cover and the fixing ring are circular.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the multi-pipe wine column provided by this utility model has the following advantages:

[0016] 1. The main tap and output pipe of this wine column form a pipeline, and a wine outlet and a wine outlet pipe form a pipeline, so that this wine column has multiple pipelines and can output a variety of wines, making it suitable for wine barrels that output a variety of wines.

[0017] 2. The top cover of this wine column is fixed to the tube body by a spring clip, making it easy to disassemble and assemble the top cover and to facilitate internal maintenance of the wine column. Attached Figure Description
