  • Publication number: 20090230137
    Abstract: This cabinet comprises an enclosure for horizontally storing unopened bottles, and electric means for refrigerating the internal volume of this enclosure. To make it easier to keep opened bottles in the cabinet, while increasing the keeping quality of these opened bottles, the cabinet comprises stoppers for aspirating opened bottles arranged vertically in the internal volume of the enclosure. These vacuum stoppers are incorporated so as to be freely movable inside the enclosure and each delimit an aspiration passageway which emerges in a sealed manner in the neck of the opened bottle and which is connected to an electric vacuum pump via a flexible circuit. In addition, this pump is controlled by a manual on/off switch, supported by the vacuum stopper, so as to be activated when the air pressure in the vacuum stopper is greater than a predetermined value, for example equal to approximately 300 millibars below atmospheric pressure.
