Definitions
- the present invention relates to a device for preparing and dispensing soft drinks, one of a plurality of beverage concentrates and cooled water enriched with CO gas for the respective
- the supplied water may itself be under pressure, or is exclusively or additionally conveyed into the carbonator by a pressure pump.
- a check valve arrangement prevents a counter flow.
- the carbonizer is supplied with CO gas, specifically from a CO gas storage container via a pressure reducing valve.
- the use of circulation pumps arranged in the carbonator has proven itself. These suck this CO gas out of the head area of the carbonator, which is filled with CO gas, and introduce it into the water which is set in motion, in particular in rotation.
- the cooling of the carbonator serves on the one hand to improve the carbonization and on the other hand as a prerequisite that the finally prepared and dispensed drink has the desired low and essentially constant temperature.
- the cooling of the carbonator is expediently carried out via a cooling system which is able to build up an ice jacket in the area of the side walls of the carbonator, which is formed to a certain extent by the circulated water.
- "cooling capacity" can be stored and the cooling system need not be designed to be extremely powerful, as would be necessary in the case of flow cooling.
- shut-off valve is opened in a line adjoining the bottom area of the carbonator and the cooled, carbonated water is drained
- REPLACEMENT LEAF Flow control valve doses fed to a mixing area, to which the correspondingly dosed amount of a desired beverage concentrate is also fed.
- the carbonated water can be brought individually to the delivery point for the individual concentrate or, for example, can be guided past all of the delivery points in succession via a so-called mixing channel. Merging different concentrates at one and the same mixing point is somewhat more problematic.
- the present invention has for its object a
- a branch system is arranged, via which alternating water is alternately supplied via the storage container, in which the water is mixed with CO gas.
- a device with these measures according to the invention makes it possible to extend the usability of a so-called drinks machine for post-mix drinks in such a way that, with an approximately identical, compact design and without special stocking of basic liquids, the possibility remains as before, CO-containing soft drinks
- Cooling the carbonator in a known manner ensures that a sufficient amount of beverage portions has the desired, reduced drinking temperature. If a CO-free soft drink is desired, the water required for this is led through the bypass line, which is routed via the heat exchanger, to the dispensing point in the mixing area with the beverage concentrate.
- the cooling capacity of the heat exchanger is derived from the storage container and its contents, so that the temperature prevailing there as well as the cooling capacity made available there are fully effective.
- REPLACEMENT LEAF can be used without the need in principle for additional, individual cooling measures or control measures.
- the device according to the invention is characterized in that the heat exchanger is fed on the primary side via a feed pump with the CO-containing cooled water from the storage container. This water can be discharged from the discharge line of the storage container and fed back into the carbonator via the supply line. Since it is self-evident that the heat exchanger and the lines to and from the storage container are embedded in a heat-insulated manner, there is no fear of significant cold losses. Rather, the heat exchanger and the connecting lines expand the amount of the carbonized that is available cooled
- the freezing point appears as normal water, but on the other hand if the temperature drops, the non-carbonated water that leaves the heat exchanger in the bypass line will be cooled near the freezing point, but safely above it.
- Heat exchangers for liquid media belong to the known state of the art. In this context, it is also expedient as a preferred measure that the adjoining chambers of the heat exchanger which are thermally well conductively connected to one another are flowed through in opposite directions.
- the figure shows a highly schematic structure of a corresponding beverage maker.
- a shut-off valve 4 is opened at the same time or overlapping, so that carbonated water, which is treated and cooled there, is passed from a reservoir 5 through a flow rate controller 6 into the mixing trough 1 under pressure.
- the dispensed beverage concentrate and the supplied carbonated water meet in this mixing trough 1 and, together and by mixing, pass into a glass or beaker 7, with which the refreshing beverage thus formed can be removed.
- ER S ATZBLATT Storage container 5 serves as a so-called carbonizer. In it, water is supplied via a supply line 8 and CO gas
- the water pressure is generated by a pressure pump 10, which in the present case sucks the water from a water storage tank 11 when there is a need for water refilling in the storage tank 5 and sprays it into the storage tank 5 via a shut-off valve 12 which is then open.
- the required water level within the storage container 5 is detected by a water level sensor 13 and evaluated by control technology for controlling the pressure pump 10 and the shut-off valve 12.
- the CO gas supply is regulated automatically by a pressure reducing / pressure regulating valve (not shown) connected upstream of the supply line 9, so that, for example, a pressure of 4 bar is built up in the storage container 5. This pressure is also used to ensure that the carbonated water is conveyed from the storage container via the shut-off valve 4, which is open as required, and through the flow regulator 6 into the mixing channel 1.
- a CO gas cushion is formed in the head region of the storage container 5, above the water stored therein.
- a gas pump 14 turns this gas cushion into CO gas
- the water is also circulated and set in rotation in the storage container about a vertical axis around the intake pipe 16 for the CO gas.
- the stored, carbonized water within the storage container 5 is cooled, specifically via cooling coils 17, not shown, arranged on the outside of the storage container 5.
- REPLACEMENT LEAF provided cooling system.
- an ice jacket 18 is also formed on the side walls of the storage container in the area of these cooling coils 17, the thickness of which is detected by an ice sensor 19 and evaluated for controlling the cooling system.
- the carbonized water inside the storage container 5 is thus cooled to a temperature near the freezing point, the somewhat warmer zones because of the special physical nature of the water near the freezing point in the bottom region of the storage container 5 near the dispensing opening, which is through the housing of the Electric motor 15 is passed. There is therefore no danger of icing in this area.
- the ice jacket 18 also represents cooling capacity for the storage container 5, so that several portions of beverages can be dispensed with sufficient cooling for a short time, without the cooling system having to provide the otherwise high cooling capacity required for this.
- the corresponding valve system 3 is activated to add the beverage concentrate suitable therefor.
- the shut-off valve 4 remains closed, and instead a shut-off valve 20 is opened. Since the water pressure from the reservoir 5 is absent, it is necessary that the pressurized water feed pump 10 is started at the same time as the shut-off valve 20 is opened. Since in this case the shut-off valve 12 is closed, the water is branched off in a branch point 21 and passed through the shut-off valve 20 opened in this case and a flow regulator 22 into the mixing channel, where it is connected to the
- the water supplied is led through a secondary-side line 23 of a heat exchanger 24 to the dispensing point.
- This measure serves to sufficiently cool the non-carbonized water required for the provision of a drink without having to provide a separate cooling system for this.
- the heat exchanger 24 is acted upon by a feed pump 26 with carbonized water from the storage container 5.
- a branch 27 is provided on the outlet line of the storage container. The carbonized water is fed back into the feed line 8 at a coupling point 28, so that the carbonized water reaches the reservoir 5 in the same way as the fresh water supplied.
- Check valves 29 prevent carbonized water from flowing back into the water supply line.
- the use of the heat exchanger 24 serves to sufficiently cool the non-carbonized water required for the preparation of a drink.
- the cooling capacity of the ice jacket is also used in this way.
- the circulation of the carbonated water from the storage container 5 through the heat exchanger 24 and back again into the storage container 5 also has the advantage that, in particular, the outflow opening from the storage container 5 is not subject to the risk of icing.
- the available, cooled amount of water in the storage container is expanded via the heat exchanger.
