METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR DOSED DISPENSING OF GASIFIED LIQUID AFTER PRESSURE EQUALISATION

摘要

The invention relates to a method for dosed dispensing from a container of a liquid including a substance dissolved therein, like e.g. a carbonated beverage, wherein prior to dispensing of the liquid the pressure in the container is equalized with the ambient pressure in the space in which the liquid is dispensed, said pressure being equalized by first establishing a gas connection and only then establishing a liquid connection between the container and the space in which the liquid is dispensed. In accordance with the invention the liquid is dispensed from the container via a dosing chamber, prior to transferring of the liquid to the dosing chamber the pressure in the container is equalized with the pressure in the dosing chamber, and prior to dispensing of the liquid from the dosing chamber the pressure in said chamber is equalized with the ambient pressure in the space in which the liquid is dispensed. The invention further relates to a dispensing apparatus with which this method nay be performed and to an assembly of such a dispensing apparatus and a container. ® KIPO & WIPO 2009
