A water pump connects pistons 16 via control valve 15 to control valves 15. Carbonizer 2 is a carbonized -water vessel 21 with a level sensor 22 installed in it. The latter monitors the increase and decrease of the level in the tank and acts on the switch 23, which serves to open and let water through the valve 24 on the pipe 7 for supplying water. A nozzle 25 placed in the gas space of the carbonizer 2 is installed on the gas and water supply pipe 26. The carbonizer is connected to the nozzle 25 by a pipeline. 27, and a normally closed control valve 28; connected to / dispensing activator 29 and 92 are found. CONNECT it, and dispensing pipe 30 has a size that provides a given volumetric feed rate from carbonizer 2 to nozzle 25, Recommended size is 0.108 (2.75 mm) in internal diameter and 12 (305 mm) long. The cooling device 3 is immersed in a bath 31 with ice 5 dispensed below a normally open valve 24 and above nozzle 25. Mixer-turbulator 4 represents C (see the number of mixing walls) and carbon dioxide in pipes (conduit 7, Pipeline 9 for exhaust gas is connected to the pipeline 7 for supplying water below the valve 24 and above the mixer-turbulator 4 of the nozzle 25 "The adjustable valve 32 is installed on the pipeline 7 dp of the water outlet of the mixer-turbulator 4 and the connecting pipe 9 for exhaust gas with the pipeline 7 for the supply of water, Recomme; it is necessary to install it above: the valve on 24. The regulating valve 32 is designed to establish a predetermined flow rate of water from the pump 1 to the uarbonizer 2, which has a predetermined flow velocity, flows through the distribution unit, Pipeline 30, an adjustable valve 33 in the pipeline 9 for venting the exhaust gas prevents the flow of water from the pipeline 7 through the pipeline 9 for venting the exhaust gas to the pump 1 or its valve 15 and also prevents the flow of the exhaust gas. o gas back to pump 1 after being used as a propellant. The water distributing pipe 3AI is connected to the pipeline 7 for supplying water downstream of the cooling device: 3 and upstream valves 24 and 32 "Distribution water pipe 34 and 4e, valve 35 is installed to obtain a given volumetric flow rate, higher speed set by the valve 32s and at least equal to the normal all-metrological flow rate through the pipeline 30 and intermittently working normally close the valve 36 which is connected to the activator. The pipeline 34 is connected to the pipeline 30 of the distribution pipeline 38 carbonated water.
    The gas supply pipe 8 may be connected to a source of carbon dioxide 6 and has a pipe 39 connected to the gas outlet of the water pump 1, a pressure regulator 40 to control the pressure in pump 1, a pipe 41 connected to the gas space of the carbonizer 2, and a regulator accumulation pressure torus 42 for regulating the pressure in carbonizer 2; Automatic valve 43 is connected to the gas space of carbonizer 2 and releases gas therefrom when the pressure in carbonizer 2 exceeds the set accumulation pressure of the regulator the torus 42.
    . The device has a distributor
    44 of a concentrate, which includes a pneumatic pump 45, which pumps the concentrate from the container 46 at atmospheric pressure. This pump is driven by carbon dioxide from source 6. The gas pipe 47 to the concentrate pump 45 has a pipe 48 connected to the main pipe 8 for supplying gas through the pressure regulator 49.
    The check valve 50 normally closes the pipe 48 and connects the pump 45 to the atmosphere through the hole 51. Valve 50 and distribution activator 29 work together. When the valve 50 is activated, the opening 51 is closed and the pipes 47 and 48 are connected, whereby the pump 45 is connected to the propellant pressure regulator 40. Concentration is pumped from
    45k to the distributor 5 of sparkling water through a pipe 52 with a cooling coil 53 placed in the bath 31.
    The proposed device works as follows.
    Water from container 11, carbon dioxide compressed is in carbon dioxide source 6, and beverage concentrate. In container 46. The concentrate for beverage is syrup mixed one to five with water. Both plain water in container 11 and concentrate container 46 may be at atmospheric pressure at ambient temperature. The propellant pressure regulator 40 is set to a predetermined pressure of 120 psi (828 kPa), the accumulation pressure regulator 42 is set to a cumulative pressure of 25 pounds / KB, inch (172 kPa), which is less than the propellant pressure and gives a stable saturation in the carbonizer 2 about 4 1/2 volumes of saturation at 0 ° C. The pump pressure regulator 49 is set to a pressure of 50 psig (344 kPa). The valve 32 sanq of carbonizer is sized to give a volumetric flow rate of 0.8 ounces (24 seconds, a simple water valve 35 has a size to give a flow rate of 1.25 ounces (40 cmj per second. Both valves (32 and 35) are sensitive to pressure from the pump and maintain specified flow rates during the rise or fall of pressure in the pipeline 7 as a result of a change in the reciprocating motion of the pump 1. With a relatively constant nominal pressure of 25 psi in inch 2 (172 kPa) in carbonatie 2 distributively The conduit 30 provides a volumetric flow rate of 1.25 ounces (40 cm) per second. This speed is at least equal to the speed in the plain water valve 35. The bath 31 contains ice to cool the water in the coil 53. The device is activated by carbonated activator 29 water and then concentrate valve 50.
    Activator 29 is activated to supply carbonated water, which in turn opens valve 28. Carbonated water in vessel 21 is at a relatively constant pressure of 25 psi carbon dioxide in the gas space of the carbonizer 2 and at equilibrium pressure for the required carbonization of water, it is pushed into the distribution pipe 38 and through the distribution pipe 30 at a predetermined speed of 1.25 uni (40 cm) per second to the distributor 5 of sparkling water.
    Thus, carbonated water can be discretely distributed. The distribution of the concentrate, carried out simultaneously with carbonated water, creates a drink. When the valve 50 is activated and the gas under pressure of 50 psi (344 kPa) flows from the regulator 49 to the pump 45, the concentrate is pumped into the distributor 1 of the distributor 5 of sparkling water at a given volometric velocity that is in proper accordance with the water feed rate The water and the concentrate are mixed and served as a beverage. Carbon dioxide is supplied as propellant gas at a predetermined pressure into pump 1 under the control of valve 15, Piston 16 moves forward and backward with propellant gas and, when piston 16 reaches end of stroke, turns on bi-directional valve 15 and moves in another direction. The control valve 15 of pump 1 is schematically shown in the drawing with a coil in the right position. In this position, gas at supply pressure flows from pipe 39 to the left gas chamber 18, and spent carbon dioxide is discharged from the right chamber 18 through valve 15 to the pipeline 9 to exhaust gas. The pressure displaces the pistons 16 to the right and the water is supplied from the left chamber of the water chamber 19 and is sucked into the right chamber 19. When the pistons 16 are near the end of their turn to the right, they will move the bobbin of the valve 5 to the left and disconnect the left gas chamber 18 and connect npaByits gas chamber 18 with pipeline 8 for gas supply. A simultaneous left-side gas chamber I8 is connected to conduit 9, and the carbon dioxide used for venting exhaust gas is discharged. Then the piston 16 is displaced and moves to the left, and water is pumped from the right chamber 19 and sucked into the left chamber 19. This reciprocating movement and inflation takes place automatically in response to the flow and pressure drop in the pipeline 7 for supplying water. If there is no flow in the pipeline 7, since the valve 24 is closed, the piston 16 does not move, while with the valve 24 open when the water research institute flows, the piston 16 moves to create its flow. The movement and actuation of the control valve 15 is fully automatic and sensitive to the movement of the piston 16 as a result of level control by switch 23 causing openings; valve 24 is filled to fill carbonizer 2. 59 The water pumped and supplied through pump 1 is at ambient temperature. When water is supplied, it passes through a cooling device 3 and is cooled to 0 ° C, and then supplied through valve 24. When water comes out of valve 24, it comes into direct contact with used and exhausted carbon dioxide, which flows freely through pipeline 9 in pipeline 7 of the propelled water. The flow of water and exhaust gas then passes through the mixer turbulator 4 and through the pipeline 26 for supplying water and gas to the nozzle 25. The nozzle 25 maintains the flow and pressure of water and gas and increases the pressure in the mixer-turbulator 4 to about 50 psi, inch (344 kPa) during the filling of the carbonizer. The water and the spent propellant carbon dioxide are combined by direct contact and agitating, and mixed as they pass through the mixer-turbulizer 4 under maintained pressure. The pressure maintained: the valve between the valve 24 and the nozzle 25 during filling of the carbonizer 2 is at the level of the propellant pressure in the water pump 1 and the accumulation pressure in the carbonizer 2 at the mellad and at the same time greater than the accumulation pressure which is final and as equilibrium for distribution. This sustained pressure, at which water and the exhaust gas are turbulently mixed, is about twice the storage and distribution pressure of water after mixing. In order to maximize carbonization, all carbon dioxide used is expelled into the cooled water and all the exhaust gas and all propelled water are mixed and fed into the carbonizer 2 by simultaneous spreading to the fine dust in the nozzle 25 through the gas space. When the float of the level sensor 22 rises. the set level, the switch 23 opens, and the valve 24 closes, the propelled water in the pipe 7 upstream of the valve 24 is hydrostatically stopped and the pistons 16 are hydrostatically blocked in place. When the water level in carbonizer 2 drops during distribution, the sensor float follows the water level down, closes switch 23 and opens filling valve 24. Water begins to flow and poroshi 16 automatically starts reciprocating movement and will supply water to carbonizer 2, The volumetric flow rate of the water leaving during the distribution from the carbonizer 2 is significantly higher than the rate allowed by the filling control. by valve 32 in carbonizer 2 from pump 1, and distribution of water, it is taken from vessel 21, Pump I operates smoothly and does not fill the carbonizer during distribution, but rather fills carbonizer 2 after the end of distribution. This prevents intermittent or relatively intermittent operation of pump 1 during distribution, all carbon dioxide is released into carbonizer 2. Excess carbon dioxide is automatically removed from carbonizer 2 through valve 43 when the pressure in carbonizer exceeds the set accumulation pressure by more than 3 pounds. / kv, in (21 kPa). This excess carbon dioxide is released into the atmosphere, so that the carbonization pressure 2 is maintained. If trapped air and other gases were found in large quantities in tap water and in much smaller quantities in settled water, these gases are released from the water and released through valve 43. These gases are released simultaneously with the excess propellant. The release and release of trapped air and other gases before or during carbonization is necessary to obtain a higher level of carbonation than is possible when air is present. When this phenomenon is understood, an excess amount of carbon dioxide propelling agent is supplied to the carbonizer to clean the carbonizer from atmospheric air. When pump 1 is running, the incoming water is first vigorously mixed in the mixer-turbulator 4, and then sprayed through the nozzle 25. Mixing and spraying occur in an atmosphere of carbon dioxide that does not have any other J 98 g of dry air and other gases found in plain water. Etc. In the absence of the normal partial pressures of these gases, water is degassed from gases other than carbon dioxide, while carbon dioxide remains in solution. Although this degassing may be incomplete, it is sufficient to obtain higher carbonation and better taste. The cooled and non-carbonated water can be selectively distributed faster than carbonized water. When the plain water dispensing valve 36 is open, the pump 1 starts working (as described earlier) and water is supplied through the pipe 7 and the cooling device 3, the cooled water is discharged from the pipe 7 after cooling and before contact with carbon dioxide. This water passes through the control valve 35, the distribution valve 36 and the distribution pipe 34 to the distributor 5 of sparkling water. During withdrawal and distribution of plain water, pump 1 changes speed and moves almost twice as fast as during replenishing carbonizer 2. If simple water is distributed simultaneously with replenishing carbonicator 2, pump 1 nearly triples the speed of normal operation. When the filling valve 24 is closed, the entire flow of water in the pipe 7 is turned off for distribution without carbonization. During this deflection, carbon dioxide is still used as a propellant and, after use, is discharged through pipe 9 to carbonizer 2. When the pressure in the carbonizer exceeds the allowable, valve 43 is opened and the exhaust gas from carbonizer 2 is released during water drain. This exhaust of the used propellant through the carbonizer during discharging the simple water blows the carbonizer 2 from the gases previously separated from the water, and further reduces the partial pressure of these leached and unwanted gases in the carbonizer. It was found that the total amount of carbon dioxide used as a propellant is equal to twice the amount of gas required for carbonization. After the required amount of carbonation gas is taken into solution, approximately equal amount is released through the mixer turbulator 4, pipe 26, nozzle 25 and carbonizer 2 to clean the atmosphere of its gas space. The tap water pressure can be used for partial propelling of idle water and to reduce carbon dioxide consumption, then a tap 12 can be used as a source of tap water under pressure 10, instead of an open water container 11. The propellant pressure regulator 40 is set at a pressure of 120 psig (828 kPa). This is the required total pressure of the propellant when tap water is used. Tap water and gas pressures are combined to achieve a total propelling pressure, for example, when the tap water pressure is 20 psig, the propellant pressure regulator 40 is set to 100 pounds / KB "inch, which gives a total pressure of 120 pounds / 5 in., and when the tap water pressure is 40 pounds / KB per inch, the regulator 40 is set at a pressure of 80 pounds per square inch giving a total pressure of 120 pounds per square inch. All tap water pressure is applied to the supplied water and the pressure of the propelling carbon dioxide is regulated to the minimum possible {The numeric value on the valve 40, which in combination with the pressure of the tap water is equal to the total specified propellant pressure. The pressure of the tap water is applied to the propelled water in pump 1 through pistons 16; As shown in 9% drawing 5, water is pumped out of the howl chamber 19 of the water pump, and your chamber is filled. The pressure behind the left chamber 19 is higher than the pressure of the tap water, the automatic closing of the control valve of the water inlet into the left chamber is carried out. The water pump chamber 19 is filled with water coming from the aqueduct, and its pressure is applied to the piston 16 and to the water in the left chamber 18, raising the pressure of the propelled water and giving, in combination with the gas pressure, the total pressure of the propeller. The used carbon dioxide propellant is discharged directly into the water between the valve 24 and the turbulent mixer 4 when water is supplied by the pressure of the propelling gas in combination with the pressure of the tap water, and simultaneously through the nozzle 25. The tap water used for raising the pressure and propelling, then supplied as plain water for carbonizer 2, when piston 16 reciprocates, the propelled water is first used to raise pressure. Simple chilled water can also be distributed as previously described when the pressure rises with tap water pressure. The simple and carbonated water streams can be combined to form a low carbonation seal by simultaneously opening both distribution valves 28 and 36. The proposed device allows for an increase in the efficiency of the carbonization process.
