The vehicular water-dispensing system is an enhancement to non-provisional application U.S. Ser. No. 16/695,416. Application U.S. Ser. No. 16/695,416 comprises a first retractable hose and a second retractable hose. The vehicular water-dispensing system comprises a logic module, a solenoid valve, a flow meter, and a plurality of vessel structures The logic module, the solenoid valve, and the flow meter controls the flow of drinking water into the plurality of vessel structures. The flow meter measures the flow of drinking water discharged from the solenoid valve. The logic module, the solenoid valve, and the flow meter are electrically connected to form a feedback loop that controls the flow of drinking water through the solenoid valve. Each of the plurality of vessel structures is a mechanical structure that contains the drinking water in preparation for consumption. The plurality of vessel structures automatically refills the drinking water after the drinking water has been consumed.

This disclosure includes devices, systems, apparatuses, and implementations associated with a wall-mounted beverage dispensing system. The beverage dispensing system is configured to fit between standard space between studs. In some implementations, the studs may provide the sole support for the beverage dispensing system. The beverage dispensing system may include a filter that is accessible for replacement without the use for tools.

Systems for providing on-demand cup dispensing for food service are provided herein. A system includes a food request module configured to receive a request for food service for a customer. The system further includes a cup source configured to hold one or more cups. The system further includes a cup printer configured to print at least one of order information or personalization information based on the food service on a sidewall of a first cup. The system further includes a cup filler configured to fill the printed first cup with a consumable based on the food service. The system further includes a cup closer configured to at least partially close the open end of the filled first cup. The system further includes one or more cup transfer elements for transferring the first cup between the cup printer, the cup filler, and the cup closer.

The present invention relates to an assembly for dispensing liquids, such as beverages and the like. The assembly has a connecting device, which has blocking means, and at least one hydraulic connector, in its turn connected to a respective delivery line of the machine. The assembly also includes a group of valves, for the selective mixing and/or dispensing of said liquids, which comprises a fixing member interacting with the blocking means to couple the group of valves to the connecting device. Also, the assembly provides a housing, to make a fluid-dynamic connection between the group of valves and the at least one hydraulic connector. The coupling of the blocking means and the fixing member causes the coupling of the hydraulic connector and the housing, and vice versa.

A dispensing system for dispensing a precise or controlled volume of fluid to a downstream assembly of an appliance is provided. As one example, the downstream assembly may be an ice making assembly and the appliance may be refrigerator appliance. In one example aspect, a dispensing system includes a housing that defines a chamber. A piston is movable within the chamber. The dispensing system also includes a plurality of valves that may be moved between various positions to move the piston between various positions. When the piston is moved within the chamber, the piston displaces a precise or controlled volume to the downstream assembly.

The beverage dispensing system is configured to fit between standard space between studs. In some implementations, the studs may provide the sole support for the beverage dispensing system. The beverage dispensing system may include a filter that is accessible for replacement without the use for tools.

A beverage dispensing machine includes a countertop for a conveyor that carries a plurality of cup holders around a track. A front side of the beverage dispenser machine is accessible by an operator to remove cups from the plurality of cup holders. A cup tower has a plurality of cup dispenser tubes that are each configured to hold a respective stack of cups. A cup grabber is movable up and down into and between a raised position in which the cup grabber is positioned to grab a cup from one of the stacks of cups and place a cup into one of the plurality of cup holders.

A master control device in the configuration of a wand may control pre-programmed aspects of the user's environment using RFID/NFC tags and RFID/NFC readers to initiate pre-programmed behavior in a computer database. This pre-programmed behavior be the control of items that rely on electricity and/or gas, such as lights, electric fireplaces, electric valves, activating the listening feature on a home assistant, accruing a balance, paying for items with a topped-up balance, and locking and unlocking doors. This master control device can be used in the connected home or business, such as a pub, restaurant, hotel, or immersive experience.

An automated beverage dispenser include a metering manifold that contains a pair of mating manifold blocks forming as a generally rectangular cuboid element forming a minimized volume manifold block. A fluid conduit system, a sensor control system and a valve and actuator system are incorporated in and on the minimized volume manifold block. The fluid conduit system comprises a series of linear, interacting fluid channels including a central linear conduit containing a magnetic piston and forming an operative portion of a metering mechanism for providing a metered discharge of beer or beverage between the bulk storage and a tap or spigot in a manner that provides for a beverage specific controlled metered pour into a beverage container. The instant abstract is neither intended to define the invention disclosed in this specification nor intended to limit the scope of the invention in any way.
