Abstract

1314832 Dispensing beverages FLUID DEVICE CORP 19 June 1970 [19 June 1969] 13299/70 Heading A4T [Also in Divisions B1 and G1] In a liquid flow control system for automatically regulating liquid flow from a supply source to a receiving vessel in accordance with the receiving vessel liquid level the system comprises a fluid interaction means such as a venturi 28 through which a carbonated liquid is passed by a pump 12 and which liquid reaches a maximum velocity and a throat adjacent a control inlet portion 28c to create a suction of carbon dioxide and water droplets through a dip tube 38 and to create a pressure drop across a diaphragm 44 and when it is desired to make a cold drink from the carbonated liquid one of the dispensing heads 16a, 16b, 16c is actuated to tap liquid from a closed flow path, an appropriate amount of syrup from a pressurized supply 34 is intermixed at the head, to complete the drink. Tapping of the liquid from the closed loop causes a reduction in the level in the chill tank 14 to expose the lower end of dip tube 38 to high pressure carbon dioxide in the tank 14 to create a pressure in the tube 38 and a conduit 42 to relieve a pressure differential across diaphragm to move a valve head 48 to close a fresh water supply through a passageway 20a and a check valve 40 opens to permit water flow to the tank 14 and the venturi 28.
