    摘要: The present invention discloses a coffee machine and a water path control system therefor. The water path control system includes a water tank, a water pump, a first changeover valve, a second changeover valve, a heating device and an extraction assembly. The water tank, the water pump and the first changeover valve are sequentially connected. The first changeover valve is sequentially connected with the heating device and the second changeover valve to form a first water path structure. The first changeover valve is connected with the second changeover valve to form a second water path structure. The second changeover valve is connected with the extraction assembly. According to the structure of the present invention, a user can make multiple flavors of coffee with one apparatus within a much shorter time.

    摘要: A cyclic preheating coffee pot includes a main body, a brewing cavity, a water supply apparatus, a heating apparatus, a water inlet pipe and a water outlet pipe mounted on the main body, and a control apparatus, a driving apparatus and a flow dividing structure mounted on the main body. The water supply apparatus is communicated with the heating apparatus, the water supply apparatus is configured to supply water to the heating apparatus, and the water outlet pipe is communicated with the heating apparatus and the flow dividing structure. The flow dividing structure includes a first branch. The water outlet pipe is communicated with the water supply apparatus via the first branch, such that the water supply apparatus, the water inlet pipe, the heating apparatus, the water outlet pipe and the first branch are communicated and form a cyclic pipeline provided with a one-way valve apparatus or a water pump.

    摘要: A return pump is provided in a coffee beverage preparing device having a brewing unit, to which hot water from a hot water heater can be supplied under pressure, and a beverage outlet which is connected to the brewing unit via an outlet line and via which a freshly brewed coffee beverage can be dispensed into a drinking vessel to be placed thereunder, the return pump being connected on the intake side in a fluid-conducting manner to the outlet line and opening on the delivery side into a drain or a collecting container in order to suction coffee beverage out of the coffee line before, during or after a brewing operation and to conduct the coffee beverage into the drain or collecting container. A controller activates the return pump and the return pump during pre-heating in which hot water is introduced into the brewing unit and/or the outlet line.

    摘要: A valve device suitable to selectively obstruct a flexible tube, includes a first body and a second body operatively associated with each other, which are mobile with respect to each other along a sliding axis, thus configuring an open operating position and a closed operating position and thus defining a passage gap configured to be passed through by the flexible tube. The invention also concerns a machine for preparing beverages which includes a valve device and a corresponding functioning method.
