Beer Tower Connector Lock

This is a replacement part I modelled for a "Wyndham House" beverage dispenser, aka "Beer Tower." This part screws to the bottom of the tower cylinder to lock it into the base. The original part probably cracks in half as the screw is overtightened, or too much pressure is put on tower cylinder.

I printed in PLA so the piece had a little flexibility and spring to provide a better lock.

There is a keying hole (to match a small post on the tower) to ensure correct orientation. It might need to be drilled out a little wider.

The tower is rotated clockwise to lock, counterclockwise to unlock for cleaning or transport. There are two possible directions for it to be inserted... you want the direction that results in the spout not being blocked by one of the legs, obviously.

I don't know if this works with other beverage dispenser models.
