Abstract

A post mix in-home carbonated drink dispenser has a novel expansion chamber and an anti-surge valve. The expan­ sion chamber is a gradually expanding chamber which reduces carbonation loss as the carbonated liquid passes from the car­ bonator to the point where the liquid is discharged. The anti­ surge valve, which is provided between the carbonator and the expansion chamber is designed to reduce the spitting and sputtering often experienced on start-up of a drink dispenser. The dispensing valve for carbonated water is part of the car­ bonator and not the dispensing head. This means that no car­ bonated water exists outside the carbonator. In addition, the dispenser which is adapted to dispense into a cup which is held under a carbonated water outlet, and which operates the dispenser the location for holding the cup to operate the dis­ penser being such that when dispensing takes place the car­ bonated water is dispensed in a stream which enters the cup essentially tangentially to the wall thereof, whereby loss of car­ bonation in the drink will be minimised.
