The invention relates to a blocking device for a beverage dispenser. The technical problem exists of providing a lock for dispensers of this type that can be opened in an uncomplicated manner by the authorized individuals but reliably prevents unauthorized individuals from accessing the contents of the dispenser, however, while at the same time not elevating the security of the lock to such an extent that a loss of a key or of a locking device would lead to a complete inaccessibility to the system, that is to say, not by the authorized individuals as a result of their negligence (loss or misplacing of the key) but by generally unauthorized individuals. To this end, the invention provides a blocking device provided for or on a beverage dispenser comprising a holding device (10) for a beverage and a cover (20) situated above the holding device while provided for covering a filled beverage supply (G). When closed, the cover, with section (21), overlaps the holding device having an edge section (11, 12). A blocking device (30) is displaceably mounted (A,23) in the overlapping section (21). The displaceability (A) of the blocking device (30) is hindered by an obstructing device (40) when the obstructing device is located in a position of rest.

I claim: 1. A barrier arrangement for a drinks container dispenser, having a reservoir (10) for drink and a cover (20) above the reservoir wherein the barrier arrangement is disposed on a peripheral portion (21) of the cover (20), wherein the peripheral portion (21) reaching over an edge portion (1
I claim: 1. A barrier arrangement for a drinks container dispenser, having a reservoir (10) for drink and a cover (20) above the reservoir wherein the barrier arrangement is disposed on a peripheral portion (21) of the cover (20), wherein the peripheral portion (21) reaching over an edge portion (11, 12) of the reservoir when the cover is closing the reservoir (10) said edge portion including at least a flange projecting radially outwardly from said reservoir (10); the barrier arrangement located at said peripheral portion (21) of the cover comprising an elongate bolt (30) having a first end, a second end, and a transversely oriented recess located between said ends, said bolt being slidably supported on the peripheral portion of the cover within a support housing formed by a guide member (23) and a cover wall (22a) that together define a compartment that houses a magnetic block (40) sized for at least partial receipt within said transversely oriented recess in the absence of a magnetic field being applied through said cover wall (22a) such that said bolt (30) can be slid between: (i) a first position wherein said magnetic block is positioned within said recess while said first end of said bolt is located below said flange thereby locking said cover onto said reservoir; and (ii) a second position wherein said magnetic block is positioned within said compartment in response to the application of a magnetic field creating an attractive force such that said first end of said bolt is spaced away from said flange thereby unlocking said cover from said reservoir. 2. Barrier arrangement according to claim 1, wherein the displaceability of the bolt device (30) is released if the magnetic block (40) is in an operating position. 3. Barrier arrangement according to claim 2, wherein the locking position of the magnetic block device (40) is lower than or below the operating position thereof. 4. Barrier arrangement according to claim 1, wherein the magnetic block is a magnetizable blocking device (40), or is liftable, by a magnet (50), to allow a movement from the locking position as rest position into the operating position, or to release the locking position for a movement of the bolt as a barrier device into an unlocked position. 5. Barrier arrangement according to claim 4, wherein the operating position is higher than the rest position, and the magnetisable blocking device (40) is liftable or is lifted against a gravitational force thereof by the magnet (50), providing said magnetic field (M) acting externally on the blocking device (40). 6. Barrier arrangement according to claim 1, wherein the compartment (22) provided at the peripheral portion (21) of the cover is at least difficult to access externally by a mechanical device. 7. Barrier arrangement according to claim 6, wherein the compartment is formed by a compartment wall (22a) as a cover wall, externally covering the magnetic block (40), and at least one wall opening (22b) is provided internally in a direction of the bolt device (30). 8. Barrier arrangement according to claim 1, wherein the bolt (30) is shaped as an elongated pin, supported essentially non-rotatably in the guide member (23) on the peripheral portion of the cover. 9. Barrier arrangement according to claim 1, wherein the bolt has a non-round cross-section. 10. Barrier arrangement according to claim 1, wherein the bolt (30) is at both ends thereof shaped to limit a displaceability by each end shape, by abutting at the peripheral portion (21, 23) of the cover. 11. Barrier arrangement according to claim 1, wherein the cover (20) has several barrier arrangements arranged in distributed manner, each of which being arranged at one respective portion of the peripheral portion of the cover (20). 12. Barrier arrangement according to claim 11, wherein the several peripheral portions form an essentially annular apron. 13. Barrier arrangement according to claim 11, wherein several flanges project on from the reservoir and each one being associated with one of the several barrier arrangements. 14. Barrier arrangement according to claim 13, wherein the projecting flange is annular on the reservoir (10). 15. Barrier arrangement according claim 1 wherein the magnetic block (40) and the bolt device (30) have at least on their surface a material which is hygienic, at least easily washable. 16. Barrier arrangement according to claim 1 wherein the magnetic block (40) is of round to oval shape having a minimum weight suitable for locking the bolt. 17. Barrier arrangement according to claim 1 wherein the magnetic block (40) is shaped as a metallic bolt piece. 18. Barrier arrangement of claim 1, the bolt designed as a polygonal bar. 19. Barrier arrangement of claim 17, the magnetic block having a polygonal cross-section. 20. A drinks dispenser, having a reservoir (10) for holding a drink and a cover (20) above the reservoir, to cover a filled-in drink as supply (G), wherein a barrier arrangement is disposed on a peripheral portion (21) of the cover (20); the peripheral portion (21) reaching over an edge portion of the reservoir when the cover is closing the reservoir (10) said edge portion defining an open end of said reservoir (10); and the barrier arrangement located at said peripheral portion (21) of the cover comprising an elongate bolt (30) having a first end, a second end, and a transversely oriented recess located between said ends, said bolt being slidably supported on the peripheral portion of the cover within a support housing formed by a guide member (23) and a cover wall (22a) that together define a compartment that houses a magnetizable block sized for at least position received within said transversely oriented recess in the absence of a magnetic field being applied to said magnetizable block such that said bolt (30) can be slid between a first position wherein said block is within said recess while said first end of said bolt is located below a flange of the edge portion thereby locking said cover onto said reservoir; and a second position wherein said block is positioned within said compartment in response to the application of an attractive magnetic force such that said first end of said bolt is spaced away from said flange thereby unlocking said cover from said reservoir.
