Abstract

The decanting basket (1) is provided with a holder (6) for an electric battery (7) and with an electric light source arranged in the region which receives the neck (2a) of the bottle, in particular an incandescent lamp (4). The latter is connected via a conductor (5) with the battery holder (6). A switch (8), fitted on this conductor on the lower side of the basket, is so arranged that it interrupts the conductor (5) when the basket (1) stands on a support piece, and closes the circuit when the basket is raised from the support, so that the incandescent lamp (4) shines through the neck of the bottle during pouring. In this way it is very easy to dispense clear, pure wine and to stop pouring as soon as a deposit appears in the neck.

Description

Stand der TechnikState of the art

Zum Ausschenken von älteren Rotweinen aus einer Weinflasche wird diese oft in einen sogenannten Dekantierkorb gelegt, der je nach Material, aus dem er besteht, und Landesgegend auch Flaschenkorb oder Flaschenwiege genannt wird. Ein solcher Dekantierkorb wird sowohl zum eigentlichen Dekantieren, d.h. zum Umgiessen des Flascheninhalts in eine Karaffe, wie auch zum Einschenken des Weines in ein Glas verwendet. Damit nur der klare Wein und nicht etwa auch das besonders bei älteren Weinen allenfalls vorhandene Depot aus der Flasche ausgegossen wird, verwendet man zum Ausgiessen ein Kerzenlicht, über welchem man den Dekantierkorb so hält, dass der Flaschenhals gut durchleuchtet wird, sodass man gut überwachen kann, ob der ausfliessende Wein noch klar ist oder ob sich Depot gegen die Flaschenmündung hin bewegt. Nun ist jedoch die Verwendung einer brennenden Kerze nicht immer praktisch und besonders beim Ausgiessen des Weines in die Gläser ist die Verwendung einer brennenden Kerze meist so störend, dass darauf verzichtet wird eine solche zu benützen, sodass stets das Risiko besteht, dass nicht nur klarer Wein sondern auch Depot aus der Flasche ausgeschenkt wird.To serve older red wines from a wine bottle, this is often placed in a so-called decanter, which is also called a bottle basket or bottle cradle depending on the material from which it is made and the country. Such a decanting basket is used both for actual decanting, i.e. used to pour the bottle contents into a carafe, as well as to pour the wine into a glass. To ensure that only the clear wine and not the depot that is available, especially with older wines, is poured out of the bottle, a candlelight is used for pouring, over which you hold the decanter so that the bottle neck is well illuminated so that you can monitor well whether the flowing wine is still clear or whether the depot is moving towards the bottle mouth. However, the use of a burning candle is not always practical and especially when pouring the wine into the glasses, the use of a burning candle is usually so annoying that it is not necessary to use one, so that there is always the risk that not only clear wine but also depot from the bottle.

Darstellung der ErfindungPresentation of the invention

Mit dem erfindungsgemässen Dekantierkorb kann nun auf die Verwendung eines Kerzenlichts verzichtet und trotzdem die Reinheit des im Flaschenhals fliessenden Weines überwacht werden. Dieser Dekantierkorb ist nämlich dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass er eine Halterung für eine elektrische Batterie und in dem für die Aufnahme des Flaschenhalses dienenden Bereich eine über einen Schalter mit der Batteriehalterung verbundene, elektrische Lichtquelle zum Durchleuchten des Flaschenhalses von unten nach oben aufweist, wobei der Schalter vorzugsweise ein an der Unterseite so angeordneten Ausschalter ist, dass er bei stehendem Korb die Leitung unterbricht, und wobei die Lichtquelle vorzugsweise eine Glühlampe aufweist.With the decanting basket according to the invention, the use of candle light can now be dispensed with and the purity of the wine flowing in the bottle neck can still be monitored. This decanter is namely characterized in that it has a holder for an electric battery and in the area serving to hold the bottle neck an electrical light source connected to the battery holder via a switch for illuminating the bottle neck from bottom to top, the switch preferably an off switch arranged on the underside is such that it interrupts the line when the basket is at a standstill, and the light source preferably has an incandescent lamp.

Kurze Beschreibung der ZeichnungBrief description of the drawing

Nachfolgend wird anhand der beiliegenden Zeichnung ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung beschrieben. Die einzige Figur der Zeichnung zeigt einen Dekantierkorb, wobei einzelne Teile weggebrochen oder weggeschnitten sind.An exemplary embodiment of the invention is described below with reference to the accompanying drawing. The only figure in the drawing shows a decanting basket, with individual parts broken away or cut away.

Bevorzugte Ausführungsform der ErfindungPreferred embodiment of the invention

Der Korb als ganzes, der aus beliebigem Material, wie z.B. aus Weidengeflecht, Bast, Kunststoff, Holz, aber auch aus Metall bestehen kann, ist hier mit 1, die in ihm untergebrachte Flasche ist mit 2 bezeichnet. Der Korb weist einen Bereich 1a auf, in welchem sich bei richtig eingelegter Flasche 2 der Flaschenhals 2a befindet. Zur Sicherung der Flasche gegen ein Herausrutschen beim Ausgiessen dient die Kette 1b. Im Bereich 1a ist nun eine Lampenfassung 3 mit einer als elektrische Lichtquelle dienenden, elektrischen Glühlampe 4 angebracht, die durch eine Leitung 5 mit der hier im Fuss Ic des Korbes 1 untergebrachten Halterung 6 für die elektrische Batterie 7 verbunden ist. Zur Unterbrechung der Leitung 5 dient ein hier ebenfalls im Fuss Ic des Korbes 1 untergebrachter Ausschalter 8. Dieser ist so angeordnet, dass er nur bei stehendem Korb 1 die Leitung 5 unterbricht, während dann, wenn der Korb von der hier mit 9 bezeichneten Unterlage, bei der es sich beispielsweise um eine Tischplatte handeln kann, abgehoben wird, die Lampe 4 mit der Batterie 7 verbunden ist.The basket as a whole, made of any material, such as made of wicker, bast, plastic, wood, but can also consist of metal, is here with 1, the bottle accommodated in it is designated with 2. The basket has an area 1 a in which the bottle neck 2 a is located when the bottle 2 is correctly inserted. The chain 1b serves to secure the bottle against slipping out during pouring. In the area 1a, a lamp holder 3 with an electric light bulb 4 serving as an electrical light source is now attached, which is connected by a line 5 to the holder 6 for the electric battery 7 accommodated here in the base 1c of the basket 1. A switch 8, which is also located in the base 1c of the basket 1, is used to interrupt the line 5. This switch is arranged in such a way that it only interrupts the line 5 when the basket 1 is at a standstill, whereas when the basket is removed from the base 9 which can be a tabletop, for example, is lifted, the lamp 4 is connected to the battery 7.

Es ist natürlich möglich, den Schalter auch anderswo anzuordnen, beispielsweise so, dass er sich bequem von Hand bedienen lässt. Je nach der Konstruktion des Korbes kann die Batteriehalterung auch anderswo untergebracht sein, beispielsweise im Korb unterhalb der Flasche.It is of course possible to arrange the switch elsewhere, for example in such a way that it can be conveniently operated by hand. Depending on the design of the basket, the battery holder can also be accommodated elsewhere, for example in the basket below the bottle.

Beim vorstehend beschriebenen Beispiel brennt die Lampe 4 nicht, solange der Korb auf einer Unterlage steht. Die Beleuchtung des Flaschenhalses 2a wird nur dann und zwar dadurch eingeschaltet, dass der Korb von seiner Unterlage zum Ausgiessen von Wein abgehoben wird. Dadurch ist die Beleuchtungsdauer verhältnismässig kurz, der Stromverbrauch also klein und die Verwendungsdauer der Batterie sehr lang. All die Nachteile, die mit der Verwendung einer Kerze verbunden sind, wie Anzünden, Auslöschen, Hitzeentwicklung, Schwärzung des Flaschenhalses, Gefahr, irgend etwas anzuzünden oder doch zu versengen, und die Schwierigkeit, das Licht immer in die richtige Lage zum zu überwachenden Teil des Flaschenhalses halten zu müssen, bestehen nicht, sodass die Verwendung des erfindungsgemässen Dekantierkorbes nicht nur für Ungeübte sondern auch für im Umgang mit Dekantierkörben erfahrene Weinfreunde wesentliche Vorteile beim Einschenken ergibt.In the example described above, the lamp 4 does not burn as long as the basket is on a surface. The illumination of the bottle neck 2a is only switched on by lifting the basket from its base for pouring wine. As a result, the lighting time is relatively short, the power consumption is small and the battery life is very long. All the disadvantages associated with the use of a candle, such as lighting, extinguishing, heat, blackening of the bottle neck, risk of lighting something or scorching something, and the difficulty of always keeping the light in the correct position for the part of the object to be monitored There is no need to keep bottlenecks, so that the use of the decanting basket according to the invention not only gives inexperienced people, but also wine experts experienced in handling decanting baskets, essential advantages when pouring out.
