A flavor infusion dispenser is provided. The flavor infusion dispenser may include a refrigeration unit configured to store a beverage container, a beverage tower coupled to the refrigeration unit and configured to transport a beverage from the beverage container, a faucet coupled to the beverage tower and having a handle configured to activate flow of the beverage from the beverage container through the beverage tower, a nozzle coupled to the faucet, at least one flavor container for storing flavoring for the beverage, at least one flavor line coupled to the nozzle and configured to transport flavoring from the at least one flavor container, and a pump configured to pump flavoring from the at least one flavor container to the nozzle via the at least one flavor line. The nozzle may be configured to mix the beverage and the flavoring, and dispense a flavored beverage.

This invention relates to a valve for gasifying liquids and dispensing gasified liquids, comprising a main body (7) which comprises an air valve (3) interconnected to an inner channel (3a), said valve consisting of a nozzle which comprises a universal thread (10) and a cylindrical piece (11a) which connects through means of connection to a reductant (4), and this reductant (4) connecting to a liquid outlet pipe (5), said reductant (4) connects to a flexible hose arranged in L (6) which is internally positioned to the tubular extension (2), said flexible hose (6) is arranged between the main body (7) and a handle (1) which pivots with the main body (7) through metallic rod (9c), said pipe (5) comprises another reductant (41). In particular, said valve is compatible with the nozzle of any bottle or growler with the universal thread and it allows gasifying and dispensing with flow control and controlled generation of foam in gasified liquids, such as chopp, sparkling wine, among others in locations other than those the gasification occurred.

A water purifier according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a housing accommodating components for generating cold water and/or hot water; and a water chute which protrudes from a front surface of the housing, in which the water chute includes a water cock through which cold water or hot water flows; and a light emitting element which is mounted on the water cock to emit ultraviolet rays, in which the water cock includes a water inflow part which extends in a transverse direction and has a water inflow passage formed therein; and a water outflow part which extends in a direction intersecting the water inflow part at an end of the water inflow part and has a water outflow passage formed therein, in which the light emitting element is disposed on an upper side of the water outflow part, and in which the water outflow passage is configured to be connected to a plurality of chambers having different diameters from each other to form a stepped longitudinal sectional shape.

A dispense tap with integral gas/liquid infusion for dispensing a beverage at a given dispensing point inside a restaurant, a coffee shop, a bar, or a convenience store, features a mixing chamber having at least one gas input port configured to receive at least one incoming gas stream; at least one liquid input port configured to receive at least one incoming liquid or concentrate stream; and an infuser configured to mix the at least one incoming gas stream and the at least one incoming liquid or concentrate stream at the given dispensing point within the dispensing tap, and provide a mixing chamber stream containing a gas infused liquid mixture of the at least one incoming gas stream and the at least one incoming liquid or concentrate stream for dispensing as a beverage. The degree of absorption of the at least one incoming gas stream and the at least one incoming liquid or concentrate stream in the gas infused liquid mixture depends at least in part on sensed gas, liquid or concentrate pressure characteristics of one or more of the at least one incoming gas stream received by the infuser, the at least one incoming liquid or concentrate stream received by the infuser, or the gas infused liquid mixture provided from the infuser.

A tap lock has an engagement member, a barrier member, and a retainer member that extends between the engagement member and the barrier member and that retains the engagement member at a fixed position relative to the barrier member. The engagement member removably attaches to a support structure of a tap dispensing closure of a container body. The barrier member is disposed proximate an outlet passage and valve member of the tap dispensing closure. The barrier member limits movement of the valve member from a closed position toward an open position to prevent leakage of material from the outlet passage.

A beverage dispensing cart is provided for the portable and independent controlled dispensing of keg beverages. Delivery of beer and/or wine on tap is provided from a portable, battery powered beverage service and dispensing cart. One or more bulk beverage keg containers are stored within temperature-controlled compartments, each dispensed from a separate tap tower. Each tap tower comprises at least one individually operable touchless tap for and in operational communication with an automated Beverage Dispensing System for an automated and controlled dispensing of a metered volume of beverage from the bulk beverage keg. A plurality of casters are attached to a lower surface of the cabinet in a manner to allow the portable beverage service and dispensing cart to be portably transported. Use of the portable beverage service and dispensing cart enable the use of keg beverages in a venue in a portable manner.
