- the feed rod 31 1 .3 is pulled back to the starting position, which in the reservoir 31 1 .1 again a fruit 31 1 .7 can slip. It is also conceivable to dispense with halving the lime 31 1 .7 and to press it completely by means of the first cylinder 31 1 .2 through the cutting device 31 1 .6. In this case, the second cylinder 31 1 .4 remain inactive. In variants of the invention, the second cylinder 31 1 .4 as well as the cutting blade 31 1 .5 omitted. The person skilled in the art will carry out the structural modifications required for this purpose.
- FIG. 6 shows, with the subfigures 6a and 6b, schematically the mode of operation of an iron-ioner 312 of a first filling station 31 for solid components.
- the ice chopper 312 has a storage container 312.1 for ice components, on which a sliding device 312.2 is arranged by means of a flexible connection.
- a screw conveyor not shown in the figure, is arranged, which conveys a certain amount of ice onto an inclined plane of the slide device 312.2.
- a weighing device 312.3 is arranged at the sliding device 312.2 of the ice cream scoop 312.
- This weighing device 312.3 is equipped, for example, with a strain gauge load cell, with which the amount of ice required for pre-portioning is weighed.
- the measuring signal of the load cell of the weighing device 312.3 automatically controls the rotation time of the conveyor screw.
- the sliding device 312.2 has an opening flap 312.4 on the end side at the outlet end of the inclined plane, which is closed when pre-portioning (FIG. 6a). After pre-portioning, the opening flap 312.4 is opened by means of a drive 312.5 (FIG. 6b), whereby the desired amount of ice is released into a beverage container. For renewed pre-portioning, the opening flap 312.4 is closed again by means of a drive 312.5.
- FIG. 7 shows, with the subfigures 7a and 7b, schematically the mode of operation of a further ice cream scoop 312 of a filling station 31 for solid components. In this case, the storage container 312.1 of the ice cream scoop 312 has a weighing device 312.3.
- the respective total amount of ice in the storage container 312.1 is determined by continuous weighing.
- the portion of ice promoted on the sliding device 312.2 is determined as a removal quantity and the conveyor screw is correspondingly controlled when the opening flap 312.4 is initially closed (FIG. 7a). Subsequently, by means of the drive 312.5, the opening Opening flap 312.4 opened ( Figure 7b) and the portioned amount of ice released into a beverage container.
