The invention claimed is: 1. Assembly of a drink dispensing device (11) having a chill chamber (12) with a chamber wall (17), an opening for accommodating a container (1) containing a drink, and a pressure medium feed (21), as well as a container (1) that is provided at a top section (2) with a dis
The invention claimed is: 1. Assembly of a drink dispensing device (11) having a chill chamber (12) with a chamber wall (17), an opening for accommodating a container (1) containing a drink, and a pressure medium feed (21), as well as a container (1) that is provided at a top section (2) with a dispensing element (4, 5,6,7) for dispensing the drink, with a connector (20,48) for detachably connecting to the pressure medium feed (21) upon placing and removing of the container (1) into and from the chill chamber (12), wherein the connector is located in a fixed angular position on the container outside a center line of the container, and with a peripheral wall (14), the container being provided with positioning means (13 ,13') which extend transversely to the peripheral wall (14), the chill chamber (12) being provided with complementary positioning means (16,16') which, when the container is placed in the chill chamber (12), engage on the positioning means (13, 13') of the container, the positioning means and the complementary positioning means together defining an angular position of the container about the center line in which the connector (20, 48) is aligned with the pressure medium feed (21), wherein by engagement of the positioning means (13, 13') on the container with the complementary positioning means ( 16,16'), the connector (20,48) is brought in a defined attachment position with the pressure medium feed (21) upon introduction of the container (1) in the chill chamber ( 12). 2. Assembly according to claim 1, wherein the positioning means (13, 13') of the container comprise at least two projections extending transversely to the peripheral wall, the complementary positioning (16, 16') of the dispensing device comprising at least two chamber wall sections stepped in the radial direction for accommodating the protruding projections. 3. Assembly according to claim 1, wherein, on placing the container in the chill chamber, the positioning means (13, 13') of the container bear in a vertical direction on an essentially horizontal stop surface (15, 15') of the complementary positioning means (16, 16') of the dispensing device, a bottom (9') of the container (1) being located some distance above a base (9) of the chill chamber (12). 4. Assembly according to claim 1, wherein the positioning means (13, 13'; 16, 16') of the container and of the dispensing device are arranged close to the top (2) of the container and of the chill chamber. 5. Assembly according to claim 1, wherein the complementary positioning means (16, 16') of the dispensing device comprise at least two slots having a width greater than the width of the positioning means (13, 13'). 6. Assembly according to claim 5, wherein the slots taper in the direction from the center line (24) towards the base of the chill chamber (12), sloping towards the center line. 7. Assembly according to claim 1, wherein the container ( 1) is provided at the top (2) with an operating element ( 51) for a shut-off valve of the container (1), the operating element (51) and the connector (20, 48) being located on a line (L) that runs essentially in a longitudinal direction of the positioning means (13, 13') of the container, which positioning means (13,13') engage on the complementary positioning means (16, 16') of the dispensing device, by means of a cavity (29, 29') curved in the longitudinal direction of the positioning means, the positioning means (16, 16') being provided with a complementary projection (18, 18'). 8. Container (1) according to claim 1, wherein the positioning means (13, 13') of the container comprise at least two projections protruding transversely to a peripheral wall of the container, the complementary positioning means (16, 16') of the dispensing device comprising at least one recess for accommodating the protruding projections. 9. Container (1) according to claim 8, further comprising an operating element (51) for a shut-off valve of the container (1), the operating element (51) and the connector (20, 48) being located on a line (L) that runs essentially in a longitudinal direction of the positioning means (13, 13 ') of the container, which positioning means (13,13') engage on the complementary positioning means (16, 16'), by means of a cavity (29, 29') curved in the longitudinal direction of the positioning means, the positioning means. 10. A combination of a drink dispensing device and a drink container, said drink dispensing device comprising a chill chamber in which said drink container is located, and a pressure medium feed; said drink container comprising a drink dispensing element, and a connector that is detachably connected to said pressure medium feed, said connector being located in a fixed angular position on said drink container spaced from a center line of said drink container; and said chill chamber and said drink container each having respective positioning means for angularly positioning said drink container in said chill chamber so that said connector is aligned in an attachment position with said pressure medium feed. 11. The combination of claim 10, wherein said positioning means comprises stepped wall sections on opposite sides of an interior periphery of said chill chamber and ears that extend from opposite sides of said drink container, said ears engaging said stepped wall sections to angularly position said drink container in said chill chamber.
