    摘要: A beverage dispenser having replaceable dispensing components allows beverage-contacting elements to be removed and replaced. A needle or other conduit arrangement may be adapted for replacement, and the needle may be adapted to be inserted through a cork or other closure of a beverage container. A dispensing outlet may also be replaceable, allowing all beverage-contacting components to be replaced. The needle or other conduit may be engagable with a dispenser body by inserting a distal end of the needle into and through an opening in the body. A dispensing outlet may secure the needle to the body in an operation that fluidly connects the dispensing outlet to the needle.

    摘要: A needle for accessing a container having a closure, such as a cork of a wine bottle. The needle includes one or more lumens which may have a screen to resist passage of materials over a threshold size from a distal end of the lumen to a proximal end. The screen may help allow a cork to reseal after the needle is withdrawn from the cork, help resist blockage of an opening to the lumen (whether with cork or other material) and/or help prevent foreign matter from interfering with operation of one or more portions of the dispenser (such as cork particles preventing valve from opening or closing).
