A liquid cooler comprises a hot liquid container, a cold liquid container, a cooling sleeve, a heat exchanger and a plurality of connecting pipes. The hot liquid container communicates with the cooling sleeve through the connecting pipes. The cooling sleeve has a double-layer structure, the inner pipe of which is used for transporting a hot liquid and the outer pipe thereof is used for transporting cooling water. The cooling water cools the hot liquid in the inner pipe once forming a cold liquid, and the cold liquid passes through the connecting pipes to reach the cold liquid container. The heat exchanger cools the cold liquid for a second time forming an ice liquid. After the two-stage cooling, the hot liquid is made into an ice liquid beverage of required temperature avoiding the bitterness and rancidity of high-temperature liquid beverages.

A liquid dispenser comprise a nozzle comprising an inlet in fluid communication with an outlet to form a flow path, a thermistor in fluid communication with the inlet, an actuator rod comprising a gasket rod tip viton, at least one centering pin to center the actuator rod in at least a portion of the flow path, a flowmeter in fluid communication with the inlet, a double acting pneumatic cylinder comprising a first pneumatic inlet and a second pneumatic inlet operatively connected to the actuator rod, and a switch lever operatively coupled to a micro switch, wherein the nozzle opens when gas enters the first pneumatic inlet when the switch lever is activated by pressing on the micro switch and closes when gas enters the second pneumatic inlet when the switch lever is deactivated. Portable and non-portable liquid dispensing systems comprising the liquid dispenser are also described.

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.

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.

The present application thus provides a beverage dispensing system for combining a macro-ingredient flow and a carbonated water flow. The beverage dispensing system may include a nozzle, a carbonated water source in communication with the nozzle via a carbonated water conduit and a carbonated water recirculation conduit, a macro-ingredient source in communication with the nozzle via a macro-ingredient conduit, and a macro-ingredient pump and an air chamber in communication with the macro-ingredient conduit. The carbonated water recirculation conduit is in communication with the air chamber for heat exchange therewith.

Beverage dispensing assembly, including a tapping column and a tap connected to the tapping column at a first end thereof, wherein the tapping column includes a first and a second channel, in fluid communication near the tap, and a beverage line extending through one of the first and second channels and connected to the tap, wherein the assembly includes a first part and a second part for connecting the tap to the column, the second part at least partly surrounding the first part, wherein the first part is made of a first material and the second part is made of a second material, the second material having a heat conductivity which is higher than the heat conductivity of the first material, wherein the beverage line is connected to the first part and the second part extends into and/or forms part of a wall of a chamber into which the first and second channel open, forming the fluid connection.

A draft beer machine comprising a cabinet, and a refrigeration circuit inside the cabinet, including a compressor, a condenser, and an evaporator. Inside the cabinet, a cold storage chamber is used to hold the cask, and the evaporator can refrigerate the cold storage chamber. A beer pipe is also inside the cabinet, and a beer tap is fixed to the outside of the cabinet. The outer end of the beer pipe is connected to the beer tap, and its inner end is used to connect to the cask. The cold storage chamber has a single chamber structure. Inside the cold storage chamber, there is a refrigeration tube. The refrigeration tube is connected to the refrigeration circuit and is in parallel with the evaporator. The refrigeration tube and the beer pipe are wound into a quick cooler of a round or an elliptic cylindrical shape, in an abreast and helical manner.

A beverage supplier includes: an inlet conduit communicated with a beverage container; a pumping and cooling device communicated with the inlet conduit, pumping and cooling a beverage from the beverage container, and outputting a cooled beverage; and an output unit, which is electrically connected to the pumping and cooling device and controls output of the cooled beverage. In a first state, the pumping and cooling device pumps and cools the beverage from the beverage container through the inlet conduit. In a second state, the pumping and cooling device empties the cooled beverage remained in the pumping and cooling device.

Systems and devices for cooling and dispensing a beverage fluid are disclosed herein. One beverage dispensing system includes a beverage tower comprising a tower body, a shank, and a faucet. In some implementations, a coolant line is routed proximal to a beverage supply line through the tower body, through the shank, and into the faucet. In these and other implementations, the faucet includes a removable nozzle having a supplemental portion of the coolant line. In these and still other implementations, the faucet include a removable nozzle having a second coolant line. The coolant line and the second coolant line are configured to transport a coolant medium proximal to a beverage fluid in the beverage supply line to maintain or adjust the temperature of the beverage fluid. Many other features are described herein.
