Rotating vertical storage system for barrels

A rotating storage device, the device comprising:

• a. a first vertical support tower having a first upper wheel and a first lower wheel with a first carrier chain rotationally coupled to said upper and lower first wheels;
• b. a second vertical support tower having a second upper wheel and a second lower wheel with a second carrier chain rotationally coupled to said upper and lower second wheels;
• c. a first cradle with a first end coupled to said first carrier chain and with a second end coupled to said second carrier chain and a front carrier load bar positioned between the first end and the second end;
• d. a barrel receiving valley located between the first and the second end of the first cradle and where the barrel receiving valley is bordered latterly by a first lateral barrel restraint and a second lateral barrel restraint, the first and second lateral barrel restraints having one of an angled and contoured sidewall suitable for making contact with a rounded wall of a keg barrel;
• and
• e. a motor for motivating at least one of the first carrier chain and the second carrier chain.

A rotating vertical storage system for removably securing a barrel, the system comprising:

• a. a first vertical support tower having a first upper wheel and a first lower wheel with a first carrier chain rotationally coupled to said upper and lower first wheels;
• b. a second vertical support tower having a second upper wheel and a second lower wheel with a second carrier chain rotationally coupled to said upper and lower second wheels;
• c. a first cradle with a first end pivotably coupled to said first carrier chain with a first carrier load pin and with a second end pivotably coupled to said second carrier chain with a second carrier load pin so that the first cradle may pivot relative to a horizontal plane;
• d. a front carrier load bar positioned between the first end and the second end, said first cradle comprising a barrel receiving valley configured to removably secure the barrel;
• and
• e. a motor for motivating at least one of the first carrier chain and the second carrier chain.
