摘要： The present disclosure relates to automatic drink preparation. The apparatus can be communicatively coupled to ordering tablets and user interfaces for requesting cocktails. The apparatus can include a nozzle with a first pipe having a first diameter, a second pipe having a second diameter, and a third pipe having a third diameter. Each pipe can be fluidly coupled to a tube. Each tube can be fluidly coupled to a peristaltic pump that can pump fluids such as soda, alcohol, or syrup. The apparatus can include a first conveyor and a second conveyor to convey containers to the nozzle. The nozzle can move along a gantry to position above either of the conveyors, and the pumps can pump fluids through the tubes to the pipes in the nozzle for release into the containers.

摘要： A cocktail dispensing assembly includes a housing that is positionable in an establishment licensed to sell alcohol and a dispensing outlet is integrated into the housing. An alcohol dispensing unit is integrated into the housing to dispense a pre-determined volume of a distilled spirit outwardly through the dispensing outlet. A mixer dispensing unit is integrated into the housing to dispense a pre-determined volume of a cocktail mixer outwardly through the dispensing outlet. In this way the distilled spirit and the mixer can be dispensed in the beverage container. A point of sale unit is integrated into the housing to conduct a financial transaction to purchase a cocktail. An identification reader is integrated into the housing to read a state issued identification card. A facial recognition unit is integrated into the housing to scan a face of a user for to inhibiting an unauthorized user from purchasing alcohol.

摘要： In many aspects, a system for a beverage dispenser can include a detector, a touch screen, and a control unit electrically coupled to the touch screen and detector. The control unit is configured to implement a method. In the method, a first graphical configuration is sent to the touch screen for display during an operational mode. A sleep mode is entered after detecting no motion events from the detector after a predetermined amount of time. A second graphical configuration is sent to the touch screen for display or the touch screen is turned off as a result of entering the sleep mode. A motion event is then detected in proximity to the detector, and as a result, the sleep mode is discontinued, and the operational mode is activated, and the first graphical configuration is sent to the touch screen for redisplay.

摘要： 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.
