    摘要: Mix and air combine in a mixing chamber of a housing of a frozen product system to form a mixture. A cap received in one end of the housing includes an air inlet, a mix inlet, and two mixture outlets. An integral orifice received in the air inlet regulates the amount of air that flows into the mixing chamber. A gasket positioned adjacent the cap provides a liquid tight seal that prevents air and mix from entering the mixing chamber when the mixture is dispensed from the mixing chamber and to prevent the mixture from exiting the freezing cylinder while air and mix are drawn into the mixing chamber. The gasket includes an air valve, a mix valve, and two mixture valves. An adapter draws air into the pump through an air hole and draws mix into the pump through a mix hole. A piston slides in the mixing chamber to dispense the mixture through mixture holes. The cap includes a plurality of protrusions that engage holes in the adapter to ensure proper alignment of the cap and the adapter. The gasket also includes a protrusion that engages a cavity in the cap to ensure proper alignment of the gasket with the cap.

    摘要: A pump (28) transfers syrup through a supply line (32) and through a valve assembly (34) for mixing with ice cream in a mixing chamber (26) to form a frozen dessert or milkshake. When the syrup flows through the passive valve (48), the pressure along the supply line (32) increases. When syrup delivery is complete, a first timer is initiated to dispense ice cream into the mixing chamber for 4 seconds to flush out any remaining syrup. A second timer is also initiated when the syrup delivery is complete to reverse the pump (28) for 2 seconds to remove the residual pressure in the supply line. By removing the residuals pressure, syrup in the supply line (32) is prevented from oozing out of the valve apparatus and into the mixing chamber.

    摘要: A pump in a beverage system pumps a set amount of concentrate from a concentrate container and into a mixing container for mixing with water to form a beverage. The pump includes a motor that drives a piston both linearly and rotatably. A portion of the piston is received in a compartment of the pump and includes a substantially cylindrical body surface having a cylindrical portion and an irregular surface. When concentrate is to be drawn into the compartment, the irregular surface of the piston is proximate to the inlet of the pump and the cylindrical surface covers the outlet. As the piston moves, the concentrate is drawn into a part of the compartment defined between the walls of the compartment and the irregular surface of the piston. The irregular surface of the piston eventually approaches the outlet, and the concentrate trapped in the compartment and expelled through the outlet.
