Abstract

On décrit une manette (1) pour distribution de bière qui comprend un boîtier dans lequel sont disposées une partie d'un circuit électrique et des batteries rechargeables. Le circuit inclut des diodes émettrice d'une lumière blanche disposée derrière un cadran translucide (12) à l'intérieur de la manette pour illuminer le cadran lorsque les diodes sont alimentées par les batteries. La manette est équipée d'un adaptateur (3) muni d'un mécanisme de dégagement qui permet de détacher la manette du système de distribution de bière pour recharger les batteries, et de la remettre en place. La manette peut être munie de contacts à brancher sur une unité de recharge, ou la recharge peut autrement s'effectuer par induction, auquel cas des contacts ne sont pas nécessaires.
