[0032] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0033] Example 1 Reference Figures 1 to 9 An externally operated beer keg is provided. The externally operated beer keg includes a beer keg 6, which has a filling port 64 and a dispensing port 63. A sealing cap 7 is provided in the filling port 64, and a dispensing valve is provided in the dispensing port 63. The dispensing valve includes a valve seat 1, which includes a seat body 13 disposed inside the beer keg 6 and a seat plate 11 disposed outside the beer keg 6. A limiting groove 61 is provided on the outer wall of the beer keg 6, and a limiting ring block 62 is provided on the inner wall of the beer keg 6. An installation ring 12 is provided on the seat body 13, and an installation groove 16 is formed between the installation ring 12 and the seat plate 11. The limiting ring block 62 is disposed in the installation groove 16, and the seat plate 11 is disposed in the limiting groove 61. A plunger 5 is sealed inside the seat body 13, and a detachable connector 2 is provided on the seat plate 11. A detachable valve stem 3 is provided on the connector 2, and a valve core 4 for controlling the flow of beer is provided inside the valve stem 3.

[0034] Specifically, the top of the beer barrel 6 has a filling port 64 for filling beer, and a sealing cap 7 is installed inside the filling port 64. After filling, the sealing cap 7 will not be opened. The side wall of the beer barrel 6 has a beer outlet 63 near the bottom. A beer outlet valve is installed in the beer outlet 63 to control the flow of beer. The beer outlet valve includes a valve seat 1, a valve column 3 and a valve core 4. The valve seat 1 includes a seat body 13 installed inside the beer barrel 6 and a seat plate 11 installed outside the beer barrel 6.

[0035] Specifically, both the inner and outer walls of the valve seat 1 are provided with sealing elements 17. Furthermore, the sealing element 17 is made of injection-molded rubber. This method can reduce the sealing dead angle of the valve seat 1 and improve the sealing effect. At the same time, the injection molding process is more convenient. The mounting ring 12 is elastic to improve the fixing force and facilitates installation.

[0036] Specifically, the seat 13 is provided with an installation ring 12, and an installation groove 16 is formed between the installation ring 12 and the seat plate 11. A limiting groove 61 is opened on the outer wall of the beer barrel 6, and the seat plate 11 is installed in the limiting groove 61. A limiting ring block 62 is provided on the inner wall of the beer barrel 6, and the limiting ring block 62 is set in the installation groove 16. The valve seat 1 is fixed by the installation groove 16 and the limiting groove 16. A plunger 5 is sealed inside the seat 13. The limiting groove 61 and the limiting ring block 62 are formed by stamping.

[0037] It is understandable that, since the outer and inner walls of the valve seat 1 and the outer wall of the mounting ring 12 are all provided with a sealing element 17, and the sealing element 17 is made of rubber, the sealing element 17 has a certain elasticity. When the seat body 13 is installed into the beer outlet 63, the sealing ring 17 on the mounting ring 12 will be squeezed and deformed. When the limiting ring block 62 enters the mounting groove 16, the sealing element 17 on the mounting ring 12 returns to its original shape and locks the limiting ring block 62 into the mounting groove 16. At the same time, the seat plate 1 enters the limiting groove 61 and adheres to the outer wall of the beer barrel 6, so that the valve seat 1 is installed in the beer outlet 63.

[0038] Specifically, a connector 2 is connected to the valve seat 1. The connector 2 includes a connecting plate 21 and a connecting sleeve 22. A snap-fit ​​groove 111 is provided on the seat plate 11. The connecting plate 21 is adapted to the shape of the snap-fit ​​groove 111. The connecting plate 21 is connected to the snap-fit ​​groove 111. Furthermore, both the connecting plate 21 and the snap-fit ​​groove 111 are U-shaped designs. The connector 2 is detachably connected to the seat plate 11 through the connecting plate 21.

[0039] Preferably, the seat plate 11 is a U-shaped plate, and the limiting groove 61 and the snap-fit ​​groove 111 are U-shaped grooves. The U-shaped design facilitates the installation of the valve seat 1 onto the beer barrel 6 and also facilitates processing.

[0040] Specifically, the connector 2 is connected to the valve stem 3, the connecting sleeve 22 is provided with internal threads, the valve stem 3 is provided with external threads, and a limit plate 31 is provided on one side of the external threads to prevent the valve stem 3 from completely entering the beer barrel. It can be understood that there is no structure in the valve seat 1 that is fixed to the valve stem 3, so the connector 2 is provided. The design of the connector 2 ensures that the valve stem 3 does not detach from the valve seat 1 after being connected.

[0041] Furthermore, the valve stem 3 has a T-shaped structure, and the valve core 4 includes a core body 41 and a fixing plate 43 disposed on the top of the core body 41. The valve core 4 is connected to the valve stem 3 through the fixing plate 43. A switch handle 44 is disposed on the fixing plate 43. A second sealing element 42 is disposed on the core body 41. The core body 41 is sealed and connected to the inside of the valve stem 3. The second sealing element 42 is made of injection-molded rubber. The valve stem 3 is provided with an outlet for beer to flow out, which communicates with the inside of the valve stem 3.

[0042] Working principle: First, the plunger 5 is sealed and connected to the seat 13. Then, the valve seat 1 with the sealing element 17 is installed on the beer barrel 6. The mounting ring 12 is squeezed first. When the mounting ring 12 enters the beer barrel 6, it recovers its deformation and fixes the limiting ring block 62 in the mounting groove 16. At this time, the seat plate 11 is fixed in the limiting groove 61.

[0043] When beer needs to be taken out or put in, insert the connecting plate 21 into the snap-fit ​​groove 111, then thread the valve column 3 with the valve core 4 installed into the connecting sleeve 22, and then rotate the valve column 3. The valve column 3 pushes the plunger 5 in the valve seat 1 out of the valve seat 1 and makes it fall into the beer barrel. Then, the valve core 4 controls the entry and exit of beer. During the rotation of the valve column 3, the limiting groove will limit the valve seat 1 to prevent the valve seat 1 from rotating.

[0044] Example 2 Reference Figure 1 and Figures 9 to 14 This invention provides a beer keg with an external valve. The structure of the beer keg 6 with the external valve is the same as that in Embodiment 1. The beer keg 6 includes a filling port 64, a beer outlet 63, a sealing cap 7, a limiting groove 61, and a limiting ring block 62. A beer outlet valve is provided inside the beer outlet 63. The beer outlet valve includes a valve seat 1. The valve seat 1 includes a seat body 13 disposed inside the beer keg 6 and a seat plate 11 disposed outside the beer keg 6. A plunger 5 is sealed inside the seat body 13. A detachable connector 2 is provided on the seat plate 11. A detachable valve stem 3 is provided on the connector 2. A valve core 4 for controlling the flow of beer is provided inside the valve stem 3.

[0045] Valve seat 1 includes a seat body 13 disposed inside the beer barrel 6 and a seat plate 11 disposed outside the beer barrel 6. The outer wall of the beer barrel 6 has a limiting groove 61 adapted to the seat plate 11. The seat plate 11 is disposed in the limiting groove 61. The seat body 13 is provided with an installation ring 12. The inner wall of the beer barrel 6 is provided with an installation groove 16. The installation ring 12 is disposed in the installation groove 16. The barrel wall of the beer barrel 6 is disposed between the seat plate 11 and the installation ring 12.

[0046] Specifically, the inner and outer walls of the valve seat 1 are provided with a sealing element 17, and further, the sealing element 17 is made of injection-molded rubber.

[0047] Specifically, the valve seat 1 has a stepped hole inside, including stepped hole 14 and stepped hole 15. The plunger 5 is set in stepped hole 14. Stepped hole 15 is provided with internal thread. The valve column 3 is a stepped column, including stepped column 32 and stepped column 33. Stepped column 33 is provided with external thread. A limit plate 31 is provided on one side of the external thread to prevent the valve column 3 from completely entering the beer barrel 6. The valve column 3 and the valve seat 1 are detachably connected by threads.

[0048] Specifically, the diameter of the stepped column 33 is not greater than the diameter of the stepped hole 14, so as to ensure that the valve column 3 can completely push the plunger 5 out of the valve seat 1.

[0049] Working principle: First, the plunger 5 is sealed and connected to the seat 13. Then, the valve seat 1 with the sealing element 17 is inserted into the beer barrel 6. The mounting ring 12 is squeezed first. After the mounting ring 12 enters the beer barrel 6, it recovers its deformation and fixes the limiting ring block 62 in the mounting groove 16. At this time, the seat plate 11 is fixed in the limiting groove 61.

[0050] When beer needs to be taken out or put in, the valve column 3 is threaded into the valve seat 1. By rotating the valve column 3, the stepped column 32 pushes the plunger 5 until the plunger 5 is pushed out of the valve seat 1 and falls into the beer barrel 6. Then, the flow of beer is controlled by the valve core 4. During the rotation of the valve column 3, the limiting groove 61 will limit the valve seat 1 to prevent the valve seat 1 from rotating.

[0051] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solution of this utility model without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of this utility model, and all such modifications or substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
