Abstract: A carbonated beverage maker includes a water reservoir, a carbon dioxide creation chamber, and a carbonation chamber. The water reservoir holds ice water and has a first impeller and a shroud surrounding the first impeller. The carbon dioxide creation chamber contains chemical elements and receives warm water. The chemical elements react with each other to create carbon dioxide when the warm water is introduced to the carbon dioxide creation chamber. The carbonation chamber is connected to the water reservoir and the carbon dioxide creation chamber. The carbonation chamber has a second impeller that includes a stem portion and blades. The stem portion and the blades define conduits therein. The blades create a low pressure region in a lower portion of the carbonation chamber such that carbon dioxide from the carbon dioxide creation chamber flows through the conduits to the low pressure region.

Abstract: A dispensing nozzle comprises a dispensing nozzle manifold. The manifold comprises orifices. Each orifice comprises a port and a corresponding conduit. The manifold comprises at least a first orifice configured to receive a first diluent, and at least a second diluent orifice configured to receive a second diluent, and at least two free-flowing food component orifices. The dispensing nozzle manifold comprises a top, middle, and bottom portions. The plurality of orifices is located at the top portion. The middle portion comprises a first set of conduits, each conduit of the first set of conduits corresponding to a port. The bottom portion comprises a funnel. The dispensing nozzle is configured so that a diluent received in the funnel mixes with at least one free-flowing food component before the received diluent and the at least one free-flowing food component exit the dispensing nozzle.

Abstract translation: 分配喷嘴包括分配喷嘴歧管。 歧管包括孔。 每个孔口包括一个端口和相应的导管。 歧管包括构造成接收第一稀释剂的至少第一孔口和构造成接收第二稀释剂的至少第二稀释剂孔和至少两个自由流动的食物组分孔。 分配喷嘴歧管包括顶部，中部和底部。 多个孔位于顶部。 中间部分包括第一组导管，第一组导管的每个导管对应于端口。 底部包括漏斗。 分配喷嘴被构造成使得容纳在漏斗中的稀释剂在接收到的稀释剂和至少一个自由流动的食物组分离开分配喷嘴之前与至少一个自由流动的食物组分混合。

Abstract: Vertical beverage dispensers including a vertical dispensing manifold for dispensing a beverage. The vertical dispensing manifold may include an input port coupled to one end of a vertical shaft and a dispensing nozzle coupled to the other end of the vertical shaft. The vertical shaft may include a hollow interior and a plurality of orifices for introducing ingredients into the hollow interior formed in the sidewall of the vertical shaft. The vertical shaft may define a vertical flow path for the flow of a base liquid from the input port, through the vertical shaft to combine with one or more ingredients, and to the dispensing nozzle. The flow of base liquid and ingredients within the vertical shaft may be uniform.
