Description

Alcohol mixing device {DEVICE FOR MIXING ALCOHOL}

The present invention relates to a liquor mixing device, and in particular, when a drink cup is placed on a rotating support, it mixes two kinds of alcohol at a desired mixing ratio and supplies it to the drink cup. It relates to a liquor mixing device that can control the temperature of

Recently, mixed liquor (also called bomb liquor), in which alcohol such as beer, Western liquor, and soju is mixed in a desired ratio, is popular. These mixed liquors have the advantage of good swallowing and quick intoxication with a small amount of alcohol. In order to manufacture mixed liquor, in many cases, the manufacturer used the method of stirring with a spoon or chopsticks by pouring the desired type of alcohol into a glass in an appropriate proportion according to one's taste.

However, since the mixing ratio is determined according to the taste of the manufacturer, there were many cases that did not suit the taste of the party attendees, and there was a problem that the mixing ratio was not uniform in taste because the mixing ratio also changed every moment.

Therefore, in order to solve such a problem, domestic Utility Model Registration No. 0392149 (hereinafter referred to as prior art) discloses that it is possible to quickly divide and pour alcohol into several glasses during the production of mixed liquor at a drinking party, as well as to provide a uniform mixing ratio. Disclosed is a mixing device for alcohol that can be divided and poured.

However, the prior art has only an effect of uniformly distributing alcohol in a glass, and since the mixing ratio is determined by the time the manufacturer pours alcohol, there is a problem in that it is insufficient to satisfy the taste of alcohol of several people.
