Definitions
- Patent application WO 00/16674 relates to such a device.
- the disadvantage of this system is that it is difficult to maintain good hygienic conditions, due to the use of milk which is a fatty liquid, which remains stuck to said device and leads to odors and bacteriological developments. It is therefore compulsory with this system to ensure good hygienic conditions during its use, to carry out regular cleaning. It should also be noted that this system consists of a plurality of parts which must be dismantled to ensure effective cleaning. This therefore requires a waste of time for the user.
- Patent 5738002 also relates to a device for emulsifying a mixture of steam, air and milk. As with the previous device, there are many parts for which regular cleaning should be considered.
- the purpose of the present invention is to develop a device for making cappuccinos without the drawbacks mentioned above.
- the general goal is either to have a self-cleaning device, or a disposable device, at least after a day of use.
- the present invention takes into account the second alternative.
- the present invention relates to a nozzle adaptable to the steam outlet of a coffee machine intended to froth a liquid, said nozzle is in one piece and comprises - a mouthpiece for the arrival of steam, - a constriction in the extension of said mouth,
- the air inlet is on the duct for the arrival of liquid.
- the air inlet consists of a duct opening into the duct for the arrival of liquid in a substantially perpendicular manner.
- the height of this conduit and its diameter are not critical.
- the height of this duct is greater than the height of the vapor mouth.
- the inside diameter of the duct is preferably equivalent to the inside diameter of the duct for the arrival of liquid.
- the liquid used is milk.
- the advantage of this system is that it is simple and therefore of low cost, which makes it possible to use it during the day and to throw it away after a few uses to replace it the next day with a new tip.
- the enlarged area of the nozzle includes means for breaking or bursting the jet.
- This means preferably has the form of a circumflex accent, but can also be any means causing the jet to burst.
- the function of this means is to prevent the jet from arriving directly at the outlet, in order to properly channel said jet, so that it leaves the nozzle, avoiding any splashing.
- the enlarged area narrows towards the outlet of the liquid and includes a stabilization area.
- This stabilization zone is in the form of a cylindrical part of certain height in said enlarged zone.
- the tip according to the invention can be made of any material. Preferably, it is made of a plastic material compatible in the food sector.
- the part is preferably injected, for example polypropylene. But, we could also consider a stainless steel or other metallic tip. It is important according to the invention that the end piece is in one piece, on the one hand for cost reasons and on the other hand to avoid that said piece has areas which could potentially form recesses for milk deposition. This will still allow you to use said tip for a day without any risk of bacterial contamination.
- a liquid inlet pipe having an internal diameter of the order of 1 to 3 mm is considered and a steam inlet mouth having an internal diameter of in the range of 10 to 15 mm.
- the throttling zone and the stabilization zone have an internal diameter of the order of 2 to 4 mm.
- the cylindrical part of the stabilization zone has a height of about 4 to 20 mm.
- the diameter is 3 mm and the height from 9 to 12 mm.
- Fig. 1 is a perspective representation of the nozzle according to the invention
- Fig. 2 is a perspective representation of the open end piece
- Fig. 5 is a perspective representation of the tip of Figure 4, to see that it is in one piece.
- the plug is disposed on the conduit (28).
- the tip is in one piece and that the two shells (30,31) are connected by two links (32).
- the shell (31) on the shell (30) simply fold the shell (31) on the shell (30): the known system of joining ensures good sealing of one tip.
- This tip is cheap: it can therefore be discarded after a few uses during the day. It is in one piece and compatible with all commercial straws. The risk of contamination is reduced because it is not washed.
