When the internal pressure of the barrel exceeds the set value, the internal air pressure opens the one-way valve and releases pressure through the pressure relief hole 21.

[0027] Specifically, the first elastic hook 41 on the outer side of the top of the stop base 4 has vertical grooves that penetrate the side wall on both the left and right sides. When the outer side of the first elastic hook 41 is squeezed, it deforms inward through the vertical grooves on the left and right sides. After the squeezing force disappears, the first elastic hook 41 returns to its original shape.

[0028] Specifically, the second elastic hook 42 on the inner side of the bottom of the stop base 4 has vertical grooves that penetrate the side wall on both the left and right sides. When the inner side of the second elastic hook 42 is squeezed, it deforms outward through the vertical grooves on the left and right sides. After the squeezing force disappears, the second elastic hook 42 returns to its original shape.

[0029] In addition, the bottom outer side of the spear shaft 5 is provided with a plurality of annular mounting grooves 53 for fitting the connecting hose.

[0030] In addition, the outer side of the spear cover 1 is provided with multiple slots 13 at equal angles along the circumference for a special wrench to be engaged and fixed.

[0031] like Figures 1 to 5As shown, the present invention provides a well-sealed wine barrel, including a wine spear, wherein the wine spear includes a spear cap 1, a silicone sealing block 2, a compression spring 3, a stop base 4, and a spear shaft 5. The inner surface of the outer wall of the spear cap 1 is provided with an internal thread 11 that mates with the external thread of the wine barrel neck. A cylindrical mounting part 12 extends downward from the bottom surface of the spear cap 1 and is arranged concentrically with the side wall. The lower region of the cylindrical mounting part 12 is provided with several locking holes 121 at equal angles along the circumference. The outer side of the top of the stop base 4 is provided with several outwardly extending... The first elastic hook 41, the silicone sealing block 2 is a ring-shaped structure, the silicone sealing block 2 and the compression spring 3 are inserted into the bottom of the inner side of the cylindrical mounting part 12 from bottom to top, the stop base 4 is inserted into the cylindrical mounting part 12 upward and positioned by several first elastic hooks 41 into the locking holes 121, the top and bottom of the compression spring 3 are respectively limited by the silicone sealing block 2 and the stop base 4 and are kept in a compressed state, the bottom inner side of the stop base 4 is provided with several angles arranged along the circumference. The second elastic hook 42 extends inward. A wine outlet 51 is provided on the outer side wall of the top of the spear 5. An annular groove 52 is provided at the lower part of the spear 5. After the spear 5 is inserted into the center hole of the silicone sealing block 2 from top to bottom, the second elastic hook 42 engages and is fixed in the annular groove 52. After the spear cap 1, silicone sealing block 2, compression spring 3, stop base 4, and spear 5 are assembled according to the above structure, the top of the spear 5, the top of the silicone sealing block 2, and the top of the spear cap 1 form a sealing structure. It also includes a barrel body 6. The outer side of the neck of the barrel body 6 is provided with external threads. The inner thread 11 of the outer side wall of the spear cover 1 is threaded to the outer thread of the neck of the barrel. A sealing ring 7 is provided between the outer side wall of the spear cover 1 and the cylindrical mounting part 12. After the spear cover 1 is threaded to the barrel body 6, the top of the barrel body 6 abuts against the sealing ring 7 to achieve a seal at that position. A handle cover 8 is provided between the lower end of the neck of the barrel body 6 and the bottom surface of the spear cover 1. The handle cover 8 is fitted onto the outer side of the neck of the barrel body 6 from top to bottom. After the spear cover 1 is tightened, the lower part is pressed against the top of the handle cover 8 for fixation.

[0032] In the above scheme, the bottom of the barrel 6 is connected to a base 9.

[0033] Specifically, both the barrel body 6 and the base 9 are made of stainless steel and are welded together as one piece.

[0034] This invention utilizes a unique connection structure to assemble a spear, consisting of a spear cap 1, a silicone sealing block 2, a compression spring 3, a stop base 4, and a spear shaft 5, into a single component. The silicone sealing block 2, under the action of the compression spring 3, effectively seals the junction of the spear cap 1 and the spear shaft 5, ensuring a safe and reliable overall structure. After the spear is threaded onto the barrel body 6, the junction is sealed by a sealing ring 7. During subsequent handling, it can be operated directly through the handle cap 8, and the barrel can be placed using the base 9. The entire connection structure is safe and reliable, providing a reliable sealing and preservation effect after assembly. Furthermore, during transportation, if the internal pressure exceeds a set critical value, the one-way valve in the pressure relief hole 21 will open, releasing pressure inside the barrel and maintaining the internal pressure within a normal range. This ensures the internal pressure remains within a safe range, while also guaranteeing the quality of the wine and minimizing wine loss.

[0035] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the invention in any way. Any simple modifications, equivalent changes, or alterations made to the above embodiments based on the technical principles of the present invention shall still fall within the scope of the technical solution of the present invention.
