摘要:
The present application describes a product dispenser. The product dispenser may include at least one macro-ingredient source, at least one micro-ingredient source positioned about the dispenser, a diluent source, a dispensing valve, a number of pumps or metering devices, and a user interface. The user interface receives a request for a product type and instructs the pumps or metering devices to dispense a predetermined type and ratio of macro-ingredients, micro-ingredients, and diluent to the dispensing valve for a predetermined flow rate.

The present invention recognizes the need for an apparatus and method for creating carbonated beverages having a customizable carbonation level. The invention uses a CPU to control an inlet valve which connects a tank of pressurized carbon dioxide to a vessel containing the beverage to be carbonized. The tube connecting the tank of pressurized carbon dioxide to the vessel contains an orifice for reducing the carbon dioxide's flow rate, thereby increasing control over the amount of carbon dioxide introduced to the vessel. A motor agitates the vessel, causing the carbon dioxide to become absorbed in the beverage. Then, an outlet valve causes excess pressure to drain from the vessel. An outlet orifice causes the pressure to release gradually, thus preventing the beverage from foaming.

A carbonating apparatus includes a carbonator for producing a carbonated water, a drinking water discharge (59) connected to the carbonator for supplying water, a carbon dioxide supply tube (22) connected to the carbonator unit for supplying carbon dioxide, a liquid level sensor (31) for detecting a liquid level of the carbonated water contained in the carbonator, a concentration sensor (30) for detecting a carbon dioxide concentration of the carbonated water contained in the carbonator. A controller (33), in accordance with results detected by the liquid level sensor and the concentration sensor, controls the liquid level and the concentration of the carbonated water.
摘要:
A low cost, multiflavor, compact, versatile, convertible beverage dispenser (10) that can be installed in any one of several different orientations so as to be able to fit in almost any available space. This dispenser can operate frontways or sideways and has a dispense module (14) that is separable from a refrigeration module (12) and that can go on top of a counter while the refrigeration module goes below. This dispenser can be used with either figals or bag-in-box and can be easily modified to dispense different numbers of beverages. When used with bag-in-box the dispenser includes built-in syrup pumps.
摘要:
Distributeur de boissons convertible, économique, multi-arôme, polyvalent et peu encombrant (10), pouvant être installé suivant une orientation quelconque parmi un ensemble d'orientations différentes, de manière à pouvoir s'adapter virtuellement à tout espace disponible. Ce distributeur comporte des commandes placées à l'avant ou latéralement, et présente un module distributeur (14) séparable d'un module réfrigérateur (12) et pouvant être placé sur un comptoir alors que le module réfrigérateur est placé au-dessous de ce dernier. Ce distributeur peut être utilisé avec des conteneurs de type "figal" ou "bag-in-box", et peut être modifié aisément pour distribuer différents nombres de boissons. Lorsqu'on l'utilise avec un conteneur du type "bag-in-box", le distributeur comprend des pompes à sirop intégrées. Ce distributeur peut être utilisé également en combinaison avec un module distributeur séparé supplémentaire plus étroit, lorsque le module distributeur incorporé est trop large pour une installation particulière.
摘要:
Disclosed herein is a refrigerator which includes a carbonated water production assembly, wherein the carbonated water production assembly includes a structure in which a carbonated water container in which carbonated water is produced is installed as a production module (250), and a structure of a sensor which senses installation of the carbonated water container. Through this, when the carbonated water container is incorrectly installed or not installed, the carbonated water is prevented from being unintentionally produced, and thus efficiency of a carbonated water production may be improved.
