Kristofer M. Dressler - Madison WI

International Classification:

B65D 8314
B05B 114

US Classification:

2224007

Abstract:

An apparatus for dispensing beverages including a fluid conduit terminating in a conduit exit, the conduit exit being oriented upwardly when the apparatus is in an operative position, and a dispenser head defining an enclosure surrounding the conduit exit, the dispenser head having a pouring aperture opening onto the enclosure. The pressure within the fluid conduit is regulated so that beverage traveling upwardly toward the conduit exit experiences a stagnation point, causing the beverage to pour from the pouring aperture of the enclosure due to gravity.
