Definitions
- the present invention refers to an automatic beverage vending apparatus, in particular a hot-beverage vending apparatus, provided with an improved arrangement for displacing the beverage dispensing spouts.
- Automatic hot-beverage vending apparatuses are usually provided, further to the devices and means needed to contain and process a multiplicity of ingredients for the preparation of the beverages, with a plurality of spouts through which the various beverages (ie. coffee, milk, tea and the like) are poured into the cups.
- the dispensing of the beverages themselves occurs in a compartment that is accessible by the customers, into which the cups are brought after being withdrawn, ie. picked automatically from their container.
- the spouts are usually gathered into a single functional cluster and are connected to the operating units of the apparatus via flexible hoses.
- Top-quality vending apparatuses are provided with displacement systems that enable the spouts to be brought into their appropriate dispensing position when the customer requires it, and to be held in a protected position when the vending apparatus is not working or operating.
- the hygienic conditions of the vending apparatuses are in this way improved, since the possibility is eliminated for the dispensing spouts to be tampered with or contaminated from the outside of the vending apparatus.
- vending apparatus to be made more compact by rationalizing space occupancies in a zone that accommodates quite a number of motor-driven systems (delivery and positioning of the cup, delivery of sugar, release of the mixing stick and the like).
- both rotary or translatory movements on a plane that is substantially parallel to the floor and preferably rotary movements on a vertical plane are carried into effect.
- the critical point of the system is represented by the delivery hoses, that is the hoses that convey the beverage from the operating units of the vending apparatus (ie. brewing units, mixing units and so on) to the dispensing spouts.
- the delivery hoses follow of course the movements of the spouts as the latter are displaced, so that they can end up by arranging themselves in such a manner as to form pockets or even to get occluded owing to squeezing.
- the beverage would be caused to stagnate there and, if the time elapsing from a beverage dispensing operation and the subsequent one turns out to be particularly long, it may undergo alterations leading to situations of dangerous contamination.
- the spouts are lifted abruptly at the end of the beverage dispensing operation and are subsequently brought into a resting position behind the dispensing compartment, while lowering their free ends so as to facilitate the delivery hoses to become completely empty.
- the dispensing unit of an automatic beverage vending apparatus in particular a hot-beverage vending apparatus, comprises substantially:
- the dispensing unit is mounted inside the vending apparatus in a position that is closely adjacent to the dispensing compartment 21, in which a cup 22 is first brought and then supported, by means of known displacement means that are not shown in the Figures, in order to collect the dispensed beverage ( Figures 1A-1B).
- connection implemented by means of the idle rocker arm 19 enables the problem to be solved consisting in bringing the spout-carrying plate 10 in its resting position behind the dispensing compartment 21.
- the spouts 11-13 turn out to be practically inaccessible from the outside of the vending apparatus and, furthermore, they are set in the condition of enabling the respective delivery hoses 14-16 ( Figures 3A-3B) to fully let off the liquid inside them, ie. to become completely empty.
- the cup 22 has therefore been positioned in the dispensing compartment 21 and the spout-carrying plate 10 is arranged practically horizontally above the cup, so that the dispensing spouts 14-16 are located as close as possible to the same cup.
- the end portions of the spouts can be situated even at a lower level than the level of the upper edge of the dispensing compartment 21.
- the beverage selected by the customer can therefore be dispensed under the best possible conditions, ie. with a minimum of heat losses in the case of hot beverages, as well as without any danger for the liquid to spatter or overflow from the cup.
- the delivery hoses are extended to the maximum extent, ie. to their full length, thereby ensuring perfectly regular flows of the beverages being served.
- the operating cycle of the vending apparatus usually provides for a few seconds of standstill in order to allow for a more intensive dripping, particularly in the case of beverages with a higher degree of density.
- the gearmotor is then energized, which, via the cam 17 and the link 18, causes the spout-carrying plate 10 to undergo a swift rotation ( Figures 2A and 2B) so as to lift and incline upwards the end portions of the spouts 11-13, which are in this way kept in a position high above the dispensing compartment 21, but are actually lifted up to a higher level than the level of the upper edge of the same compartment.
- This operation brings about a drop-breaking effect that ensures the complete discontinuance of the beverage dispensing operation, owing also to the fact that the delivery hoses 14-16 are caused to temporarily flex.
- the gearmotor then goes on rotating and, thanks to the connection established by means of the idle rocker arm 19, which oscillates about the point at which it is hinged on to the inner structure 20 of the vending apparatus, the spout-carrying plate 10 is caused to rotate in an anticlockwise direction ( Figures 3A and 3B).
- Figures 3A and 3B the end portions of the spouts 11-13 move over the upper edge of the dispensing compartment 21 and are brought in a position behind the same compartment, above a drip pan 31 provided for collecting possible leakage liquids. This position corresponds to the resting condition of the beverage dispensing unit and, therefore, of the vending apparatus.
- connection of the spout-carrying plate 10 to the inner structure 20 of the vending apparatus which is implemented by means of the idle rocker arm 19, may be replaced by a sliding coupling of the stud-slot type, in which the plate is provided with a stud adapted to co-operate with a guide channel or groove provided in the structure.
