BARREL TAP Original Filed April 1, 1936' bark.
INVENTOR. ALBERT KmaLsoN ATTORNEY.
Patented June 15, 1937 PAT'E T OFFlCE BARREL TAP Albert Karlson, New York, N. Y.
Application April 1, 1936, Serial No. 72,032 Renewed April 16, 1937' 3 Claims.
This invention relates to new and useful improvements in appliances pertaining to barrels, especially beer barrels, and to the methods of opening and drawing the contents from the latv ter; andit has" for its object to provide means, whereby said latter barrels may be opened and the beer drawn from these in a manner that will eliminate the comparatively great waste and spill of the contents, which now usually occurs in the opening of such barrels, while my device at the same time incidentally secures the retention in the barrels of the gases and fumes so essential to good and palatable beer.
As my device is comparatively simple of construction, the cost of employing the same should be proportionately low.
With the above and other objects in view, this invention consists of the novel features of construction, combination and arrangement of parts, hereinafter fully described, claimed and illustrated in the accompanying drawing, forming part of this specification, and in which similar characters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all views, and in which:-
Figure 1 is a transverse sectional view illustrating my invention installed in a beer barrel.
Figure 2 is a detail top elevational view of a barrel, showing in dotted lines the part installed in the said barrel, and in full lines a hinged cover, protecting the outlet from the barrel.
Figure 3 indicates two different ways of installing my invention.
Figure 4 is an enlarged detail transverse sectional view on the lines 4-4 in Figure 1; while Figure 5 is a top plan elevational view of the same; and
Figure 6 is another enlarged detail transverse vertical sectional view of the cylinder tube, with the rod in its upper position.
Referring more particularly to the drawing, I0 indicates a beer barrel, which at its upper center is provided with a metal bushing ll, preferably threaded into said barrel. Said bushing may, if desired, be still more securely fastened to the barrel by means of a ring member l2, countersunk in the upper part of said barrel, as said ring member is provided with a flange l3, which extends below the projecting flange l4 formed upon the bushing ll, said flanges I3 and I4 being in turn secured together by means of a screw-bolt I5, the head I6 of which partly overlaps the flange I4 and the ring member I2, as may be seen, especially in Figure 5.
Between the two flanges I3 and I4 is a small space iladapted to receive a washer therein to'tighten the joint.
A stopper I8 is screwed into the bushing H, as shown in Figure 1, said stopper is formed with ayc'entral depression Ill therein, and having in the inner walls of said depression small pockets 20, 20.
The arrangement, as described, may be protected by means of a hinged cover 2!, shown in Figure 2.
When it is desired to withdraw the stopper it from the barrel, a ring-shaped attachment 22 is screwed into the bushing H, which is formed with a depression therein, as shown at 23, and has its inner wall 24 of said depression threaded to fit the stopper it upon one side, and said ringshaped attachment 22 upon the other side thereof.
A cylinder tube 25 has in turn its lower portion threaded into said ring-shaped attachment, while a washer 2'6 is keyed between the bottom of the cylinder tube 25, the upper part of the wall 24 and said ring-shaped attachment 22, which latter at this junction is formed with a small set-off N, as may be seen especially in Figure 4.
The cylinder tube is threaded at its top 28 to fit the lower end of a rod 29. The latter is provided upon said lower end with an enlargement 30 adapted to descend into the depression IQ of the stopper E8 in removing the latter, as in this operation spring actuated studs 3! formed upon the sides of said enlargement 39 will snap into the pockets 20 in said depression l9, and thus make the withdrawal in unscrewing the stopper 18 an easy matter; a washer 32 is mounted above said enlargement in order to make a close fitting with the top of the cylinder tube, when the rod is withdrawn to an upper position therein; spouts 33 are indicated upon said cylinder tube for distributing the beer.
As a modification is shown a tube 34, which may be fitted into the lower end of the bushing ll, while it extends nearly to the bottom of the barrel.
Another feasible arrangement has been shown in Figure 3, where the outlet is shown upon the end of the barrel, as indicated at 35.
It is obvious that changes may be made in the form, construction and arrangement of the several parts, as shown, within the scope of the appended claims, without departing from the spirit of the invention, and I do not therefore, wish to limit myself to the construction and arrangement shown and described herein.
What I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United States, is:-
1. In combination with a barrel, a bushing mounted in the latter, said bushing being formed with an outer and an inner wall, a stopper threaded upon the inner side of the inner wall of said bushing, and a ring member threaded upon the 5 outer side of the inner wall of said bushing, said inner wall of the bushing being slightly lower than the outer wall of the same, a cylinder tube threaded into said ring member, and a washer disposed between the bottom of the pump unit 10 and the top of said inner wall, a rod operable in said cylinder tube, and means arranged upon the latter, whereby to engage the said stopper for the purpose of removing the latter in opening for 20 stopper disposed in said bushing, and a cylindrical tube mounted in the latter and extending downwardly therefrom, an upper cylindrical tube detachably secured to the ring member, a rod mounted in said upper cylindrical tube, and
25 means arranged upon said piston rod whereby to engage and remove the stopper from the bushing, and a washer arranged upon said rod, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
3. In a device of the class described, a beer barrel, a bushing mounted in the latter, said bushing being formed with a flange, a band upon the outer side of said bushing, and a flange upon said band adapted to cooperate with the flange upon the bushing, and a screw-bolt for securing the bushing and band together, the bushing being made with a central depression thereini, whereby to form an inner wall in said bushing, a ring member mounted upon said inner wall and extending into the depression of the bushing, a stopper disposed in the latter, and a cylindrical tube mounted in the bushing and extending downwardly therefrom, an upper cylindrical tube detachably secured to the ring member, a rod mounted in said upper cylindrical tube, and means arranged upon said rod whereby to engage and remove the stopper from the bushing, and
as shown and described.
