ABSTRACT:
A connector for connecting a carbon dioxide cylinder to a carbonation apparatus includes a female part having a cylindrical recess for receiving a male part carried by the carbonation apparatus. An axially movable actuator extending through the male part projects through a central passage at the bottom of the cylindrical recess to engage a valve member for opening the valve. The actuator is in three parts and the center part itself forms a valve which is closed when the actuator is depressed for supplying carbon dioxide from the cylinder to a carbonation chamber but which, when the actuator is released, may open response to pressure in the carbonation chamber for supplying carbon dioxide therefrom to another part of the apparatus, such as a concentrate supply device.
