Definitions
- the invention relates to a beverage cooling device and a method for cooling a beverage as claimed below.
- Cooling a beverage in its container such as a wine or champagne bottle or a beer can has inspired many inventors to develop solutions to carry out the task fast and efficiently. It is often important to reach a certain predetermined target temperature accurately. Cooling e.g. a wine bottle fast to a target temperature faces several challenges. Heat transfer from the wine to a cooling device or medium is limited by thermal resistance. Thermal resistance in wine bottle glass wall is one limiting factor but wine itself is also a relatively poor heat conductor. Heat transfer can be increased by increasing temperature difference between wine and the cooling medium. Overcooling may become an issue, thus cooling should be terminated e.g. by removing the wine bottle from the cooling device at a right time point.
- Bottle labels do not normally tolerate water or solvents.
- the bottle or other container may drip cooling liquid during serving. There is a risk of cooling liquid entering the container. Cooling liquid may be harmful for the taste of food and drinks in the dining table or may even pose a health risk.
- Patent publications US 507996, US 5505054, US 9316432, WO 2011012902 and EP 2459840 show that the container may be rotated.
- the rotation enhances cooling by enhancing convection flow of e.g. the wine inside the bottle, thus increasing heat transfer and improving temperature uniformity of the wine.
- Rotating the bottle of e.g. fine wines is not favored because that can cause sediments to mix with the wine.
- carbonated drinks such as champagne or beer an uneven or fast rotation or shaking may cause unwanted bubbling and foaming.
- Patent publication EP 1662218 A1 presents a method where beverage is rotated and simultaneously sprayed with a brine or other liquid that stays in liquid form at temperatures below -20 °C or even at temperature below -50 °C.
- the publication presents a heat transfer optimized solution but compromises the need to preserve the bottle label intact and the need to keep the bottle stationary.
- Patent publication WO 2012090209 A2 presents a cooling device that does not rotate the bottle and the device has means to stop the cooling by rising the bottle from the cooling cavity after the target temperature or cooling time is reached.
- the cooling cavity is filled with liquid coolant the heat transfer between the liquid coolant and beverage bottle is relatively fast. But using liquid coolant means compromising the bottle label.
- the device is used without a cooling liquid, the heat transfer is limited and the device does not provide faster cooling than e.g. normal household freezer. Excessive cooling is anyhow avoided.
- Patent publication WO 0120967 A2 presents an apparatus using a Stirling cooler system and a method of chilling containers and fluids.
- Prior art solutions often demand cooling of a substantially large mass of a cooling medium, such as water.
- a large mass requires a large amount of energy for its cooling.
- a large part of that energy is waisted by heat losses.
- a lot of energy is lost in cooling an excessive amount of cooling liquid compared to what is theoretically needed for the cooling of the beverage.
- the present invention has an object of providing means for cooling a beverage inside its container, such as wine, champagne or beer in a bottle or can, in a fast, simple, safe and effective way.
- the present invention has especially an object of providing means to cool a beverage in a container fast without wetting the container or harming its label and enabling control of the target serving temperature.
- Cooling rate can be stopped or greatly reduced within the cooling device at a predetermined target cooling time or target cooling temperature and thus excessive cooling of the beverage can be avoided.
- the invention provides more accurate heat transfer control than prior art.
- the present invention has especially an object of providing means to cool a beverage in a container effectively without rotating the container.
- a typical beverage cooling device comprises a frame and supported on it
- a cooling location adapted to receive and hold a beverage container
- - at least one cooling element adapted to be in contact with the beverage container in the cooling location, in order to conduct heat through container wall between the beverage and the cooling element
- the refrigerant channels are arranged to be in heat transfer contact with the cooling element in order to conduct heat between the refrigerant and the cooling element.
- the heat transfer contact between the refrigerant channels and cooling element e.g. may mean that walls of the channels are in direct contact with the cooling element or that the cooling element forms a part of those walls.
- the beverage cooling device comprises at least one arm supported movably to the frame at its first end.
- the at least one cooling element is arranged on the arm at its second end.
- the arm and the cooling element are movable between at least two positions, namely
- cooling element is arranged out from the cooling location and adapted not, or at least not substantially, to be in contact with the beverage container;
- cooling element is arranged in the cooling location and adapted to be in contact with the beverage container.
- a typical method for cooling a beverage with a cooling device comprises at least the following steps:
- the cooling device comprises at least one arm supported movably to the frame at its first end.
- the at least one cooling element is arranged on the arm at its second end.
- the method further comprises at least the following steps:
- the device comprises a frame. At least one movable arm is supported movably on the frame. At least one cooling element is arranged on the arm. The cooling element is arranged to be cooled with a refrigerant.
- the arm and the cooling element can be moved between at least two positions, namely 1 ) a free position, where the cooling element is not, or at least not substantially, in contact with the beverage container and 2) a contact position, where the cooling element is in contact with the beverage container, thereby able to cool the beverage container and the beverage therein.
- a beverage cooling device and a method used with it can be achieved by using a movable arm with a cooling element at its end.
- the cooling device can be accomplished as simple, energy saving and easy to control. Only relatively small cooling elements, such as cooling pads, need to be cooled by the refrigerant. The temperature of the cooling elements is easy and fast to control, i.e. set as wanted. The heat transfer between the refrigerant and the beverage is easily and accurately controlled.
- the invention is suitable for many kinds of beverage containers, especially bottles and cans made of e.g. glass, plastic or metal. Suitable beverages are e.g. wine, champagne, beer, soft drinks and water.
- the cooling location comprises supports for the beverage container.
- the cooling location may have a bottom, one or more walls or other support elements adapted to receive and hold a beverage container.
- the cooling device comprises an outer wall or casing around the cooling location, the at least one movable arm, the compressor and other possible parts.

- the surface can be arranged curved around the cooling location with a radius that is at least close to the radius of the container.
- the one or more cooling elements In the free position, where the one or more cooling elements are arranged out of the cooling location, there remains a free space at the cooling location.
- the one or more arms with their cooling elements can be open so, that the free space allows a container to be arranged into the cooling location.
- This free space may have a diameter of more than 70 mm, more than 90 mm or more than 105 mm.
- a round container such as a bottle or a can, with a diameter of more than 70 mm, more than 90 mm or more than 105 mm can be arranged into the cooling location.
- the container size and shape may vary a lot depending on the type of the beverage and the manufacturer of the beverage.
- the movable arm or arms enable cooling a range of container sizes that is determined by the maximum opening of the arm or arms and the size when the arm or arms are in the minimum contact position.
- an embodiment of the invention covers at least bottle diameters from 68 mm to 92 mm. This size range is suitable for majority or white and red wines and champagne and sparkling wine bottles.
- Another embodiment may cover bottle sizes from 90 mm to 110 mm, which is suitable for bottles having large outside diameter, such as some special champagnes.
- Another embodiment may cover bottle sizes from 68 mm to 110 mm.
- the cooling element or at least mainly the whole cooling element is made of relatively soft and/or elastic material.
- the cooling element material has Shore hardness less than 90 or less than 60 in Shore OO scale.
- the cooling element is made of material that has compressibility of more than 10 % and preferably more than 30 % at a pressure of 70 kPa.
- the cooling element material can be e.g. at least mainly silicone rubber with thermal additive.
- the cooling element is made of material that has thermal conductivity of at least 1 W/(m*K) and preferably at least 4 W/(m*K).
- the cooling elements are of soft material with high thermal conductivity.
- the surface of the pads in contact with the bottle should be properly reinforced to avoid wear and tear.
- the cooling element material can be e.g. at least mainly silicone rubber with metal powder mixed in it for increasing thermal conductivity.
- the cooling element material can be also other soft material that meets the above heat conductivity and mechanical requirements.
- the cooling element can adapt to the possible changes in geometrical shape between any container and the arm in which the cooling element is mounted. Larger thickness in the cooling element enables better adaptation. Higher number of arms and/or cooling elements allows larger container diameter variation with same size and/or compressibility of the cooling elements.
- the cooling element total surface area in contact with the container when calculated for all arms is more than 10 %, more than 30 %, more than 40 % or more than 60 % of the beverage container outer surface area.
- the at least one arm is a hollow structure so that it comprises one or more refrigerant channels inside it.
- the refrigerant is lead from the compressor to the second end of the arm, near the at least one cooling element and back to the compressor via the refrigerant channels inside the at least one arm.
- the channels may be made e.g. by boring.
- the channels may extend from the first end of the arm to its second end.
- the at least one arm is of aluminum or another metal or metal alloy, such as brass.
- aluminum is advantageous for its good thermal conductivity and low density.
- An arm made e.g. of brass or aluminum can be machined or cast into wanted form.
- the arm may be of non-metal materials like a thermoplastic polymer.
- a non-metal arm material may comprise metallic powders mixed into it.
- a non-metal arm material may be suitable for injection molding.
- the at least one arm is of metal that has high heat conductivity and that can be wrought or cast for serial production.
- the heat conductivity of the arm metal may be e.g. more than 50 W/(m * K), preferably more than 100 W/(m * K) or more preferably more than 200 W/(m * K).
- the at least one arm is hinged to the frame. Hinging is a reliable way to arrange an arm movable. The movability of the arm in relation to the frame may be achieved with other means also, e.g. by arranging the arm telescopic.
- a power transmission means is arranged between the frame and the arm.
- the power transmission may be e.g. an electric motor, or a hydraulic or pneumatic cylinder arranged between the arm and the frame.
- the power transmission means may also be arranged manual, e.g. as a lever to be turned by a user. The power transmission means moves the arm between the free position and the contact position.
- the at least one arm and the cooling element on its end are pressed against the beverage container with the power transmission means. Pressing a soft and/or elastic cooling element harder increases heat transfer between the cooling element and the beverage container. This happens firstly, because pressing harder tends to add to the contact area between the cooling element and the container. And secondly, by pressing harder the thickness of the cooling element between the second end of the arm and the container decreases, thus decreasing thermal resistance of the cooling element between them. Also, the compressibility of the cooling element allows for larger bottle shape and diameter variation with the same arms and cooling elements, as the heat transfer may be controlled with controlling the power feed to the transmission means. The pressing force may be adjusted for each situation.
- the at least one arm and the cooling element on its end is pressed against the beverage container with a pressure of more than 3 kPa or more than 14 kPa.
- the pressure needed may be adjusted for each situation.
- the beverage cooling device comprises a user interface and a thereto connected control unit arranged to control the cooling process and the movement of the at least one arm.
- the control unit may be set to e.g. control pre- cooling of the apparatus before a beverage container is inserted to the device, to control cooling of a beverage in a container in the device, to maintain the beverage and the container at a target temperature.
- the control unit may be set to adjust e.g. the force directed to the arm when pressing the cooling element against the beverage container or the temperature and flow rate of the refrigerant in the device.
- the user interface may be used e.g. for selecting a type of beverage and container to be cooled and to set a target temperature for the beverage.
- the user interface may comprise a screen, e.g. a touch screen allowing for communication between the user and the control unit.
- the temperature of the cooling element can be set below 0 °C. In an embodiment the temperature is set below -15 °C to enable high heat transfer rate between the refrigerant and the beverage. In an embodiment the cooling element can be precooled already before inserting a beverage container into the device.
- control unit monitors the temperature of the beverage with a thermometer. Monitoring and adjusting of the temperature may be continued also after the beverage temperature has reached the target value. This way the beverage temperature may be kept at an optimum also when the amount of beverage in the container decreases. E.g. this ensures that the beverage does not freeze or get too cold or warm even if the container is left inside the apparatus for extensive time periods, e.g. for a whole evening or longer.
- the device and method according to the invention can also be used for heating the beverage.
- the device would have means for heating the container, e.g. means for heating the heat transfer medium arranged to flow in the device.
- the heat transfer medium may the same medium that is previously in this text called refrigerant.
