AUTOMATIC BEVERAGE PREPARATION MACHINE WITH ELECTROMAGNETIC-INDUCTION, CONTINUOUS-FLOW FLUID HEATER
In an automatic beverage preparation machine operable to dispense a beverage in a container, a fluid for preparing the beverage is heated by an electromagnetic-induction, continuous-flow heater having a tubular body delimiting a flow path form the fluid to be heated. The tubular body has an end outlet segment leading into a chamber closed by a plug-shaped body that is removable to allow access to the flow path. The plug-shaped body is arranged outside a casing or is uncouplable and extractable from the casing through an opening formed in the casing to allow direct access from the outside to the flow path.

Herbal Infusion and Decarboxylation Device
An herbal infusion and decarboxylation device is an apparatus that enables higher control over an infusion process to make a high-quality infused product. The apparatus includes an infusion chamber and an infusion mechanism. The infusion chamber enables the monitoring and measuring of the infusion materials by including a chamber body, a chamber handle, and a lid assembly. The chamber body retains the infusion materials. The lid assembly includes several attachments to facilitate the infusion of the infusion materials. The chamber handle facilitates the safe handling of the chamber body. The infusion mechanism includes a motor, a blade assembly, a heating plate, and a temperature sensor. The motor drives the blade assembly to enable the infusion process. The heating plate enables the controlled heating of the infusion materials in the chamber body. The temperature sensor helps monitor the temperature of the infusion materials to adjust the operation of the heating plate.
