Abstract: A tapping head that is coupled to a disinfectant pump, the tapping head is for tapping beverages pressurized by gas. This tapping head comprises a housing, and a tapping tappet, disposed within the housing. This tapping tappet has at least one channel. There is also an actuating lever coupled to the housing. There is also a beverage closing valve disposed within the housing. Furthermore, there is also a fitting disposed at an end of the tapping tappet. When in operation, a disinfectant for disinfecting an area of the fitting is fed first via the actuating lever wherein the tapping tappet is subsequently moved against a CO2 connector of the fitting area whereby the beverage closing valve is opened.

Abstract: The invention relates to a tapping head for tapping beverage pressurized by gas, comprising a closing bolt (2) accommodated in a housing (1) and surrounded by a slide (4) movable up and down by means of an actuating lever (5); and a CO2-connection (14) for the conveying gas. The tapping head is characterized in that a closing bolt (2) is arranged in the housing (1). The closing bolt is surrounded by a slide (4) that is movable up and down and, in the pouring condition, rests at the barrel-side end in a sealing manner against a flange seal (21) arranged in the lower part of the housing (1), and, in the closing condition, the tappet (19) rests in a sealing manner against the closing bolt (2) by means of an O-ring (19a).

Abstract: A device for cleaning a tapping head arrangement for tapping beverages pressurized by gas, the device being able to be reused at a later time by any desired type of tapping head. The device comprises a housing (1) with a connection (3) for the cleaning agent and, with a separate connection (4) for the beverage. The device also has a tubular attachment (2) that can be inserted in the tapping tappet (5) of any desired tapping head (6). A tubular cleaning agent feed line (8) is arranged in this attachment. At its lower end, the feed line has two non-return safety valves (12, 13) arranged in an actuation housing (11). The safety valves can be actuated by an actuating pin (14, 15) attached to the lower part (16) of the flushing tube.
