Post-mix drink dispensing system with independently controlled syrup pumps
10626003 · 2020-04-21 · ·

Drinks dispensing system (10) comprising a first syrup pump (20) being controllable to deliver a predetermined dose of syrup from a first syrup container (22) to a dispensing valve assembly (16), a second syrup pump (20) being controllable to deliver a predetermined dose of syrup from a second syrup container (22) to the dispensing valve assembly (16), a control system (200) configured to control the operation of the first and second syrup pumps (20) by setting a first electrical power parameter of electrical power to be supplied to drive the first syrup pump (20) independently of a second electrical power parameter of electrical power to be supplied to drive the second syrup pump (20); and a water delivery system (14) configured to deliver water to the dispensing valve assembly (16), wherein the dispensing valve assembly (16) is operable to mix and dispense syrup and water.

Method and apparatus for post-mix drink dispensing

A high diluent to concentrate volumetric ratio post-mix drink dispenser includes a mixer and a nozzle housing. The mixer defines a mixing pathway adapted to receive a diluent flow from a diluent source and a concentrate pathway adapted to receive a concentrate flow from a concentrate source. The concentrate pathway communicates with the mixing pathway to deliver concentrate therein. The mixing pathway manipulates the diluent flow therein to decrease the pressure thereof, thereby creating a low pressure region at the concentrate pathway that promotes introduction of the concentrate into the diluent for mixing therewith. The nozzle housing couples with the mixer such that the nozzle housing receives mixed diluent and concentrate from the mixing pathway and delivers the mixed diluent and concentrate therefrom.

ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGE DISPENSERS WITH FLOW CONTROLS

A beverage dispenser includes a gas infusion device configured to infuse a gas into a base liquid to form a gas-infused liquid, a mixing chamber configured to mix the gas-infused liquid and a concentrate to thereby form a reconstituted beverage, a first flow control configured to decrease pressure of the gas-infused liquid prior to mixing with the concentrate, and a second flow control configured to decrease pressure of the concentrate prior to mixing with the gas-infused liquid. A restrictor device downstream from the mixing chamber and configured to apply backpressure on the concentrate and the gas-infused liquid, and a dispensing valve is configured to dispense the reconstituted beverage.

Touch screen interface for adjusting carbonation ratio of beverage dispensing machine

A beverage dispensing system including a control unit and a touch screen. Inputs are made to the touch screen to dispense beverages and apply system adjustments. The control unit controls a plurality of beverage dispensing valves according to inputs made to the touch screen.
