Description

具有改良之噴嘴總成的飲料施配器 Beverage dispenser with improved nozzle assembly

本發明係關於一種用於自提供於一盛器中之一食物物質製備一飲料之裝置。特定而言,本發明係關於使得能夠藉由將稀釋劑射流供應至一盛器而自提供至該盛器之一飲料濃縮物製備一飲料之此一裝置。 The present invention relates to a device for preparing a beverage from a food material provided in a receptacle. In particular, the present invention relates to such a device that enables a beverage to be prepared from a beverage concentrate provided to one of the receptacles by supplying a diluent jet to a receptacle.

已知藉由將一飲料濃縮物(諸如一乾式粉末)與一稀釋劑(諸如冷水或熱水)混合來製備飲料。藉此,通常將以下原理應用於飲料製備。將一飲料濃縮物(諸如一乾式粉末)引入至一盛器(諸如一咖啡杯或茶杯)中。然後,將茶杯放置於將至少一股或一注水引入至茶杯之一稀釋與混合裝置之一出口下方以便實現飲料濃縮物與熱水之一互動。因此,飲料濃縮物溶解且最後因熱水而起泡以便製備一飲料。然而,利用以上所概述原理之現有飲料製備裝置遭受以下不方便性:飲料濃縮物不被完全稀釋且因此所製備飲料中存在濃縮物之殘留物。此導致所製備飲料之一不均勻且因此導致一非誘人外觀。 It is known to prepare a beverage by mixing a beverage concentrate, such as a dry powder, with a diluent such as cold or hot water. Thereby, the following principles are generally applied to beverage preparation. A beverage concentrate, such as a dry powder, is introduced into a receptacle such as a coffee cup or teacup. The teacup is then placed to introduce at least one or one water injection into the outlet of one of the dilution and mixing devices of the teacup to effect interaction of the beverage concentrate with one of the hot water. Therefore, the beverage concentrate dissolves and eventually bubbles due to hot water to prepare a beverage. However, existing beverage preparation devices utilizing the principles outlined above suffer from the inconvenience that the beverage concentrate is not completely diluted and thus the residue of the concentrate is present in the prepared beverage. This results in a non-uniformity of the prepared beverage and thus a non-attractive appearance.

另外,在將飲料濃縮物提供至一盛器期間,濃縮物之部分可黏附至該盛器之內側壁且因此可在飲料製備程序中不完全溶解。此外,若飲料濃縮物在提供至該盛器之稀釋劑中不完全溶解,則飲料之味道可與既定飲料味道不同。因此,特定針對熱飲料(諸如茶或咖啡)之飲料製備,期望具有欲製備飲料之一可複製強度,其中飲料之濃度對應於提 供至盛器之飲料濃縮物量且不針對每一製備而改變。因此,尋求用於根據上述原理來製備一飲料之一裝置,其實現提供至盛器之整個量之飲料濃縮物之一完全溶解。 Additionally, during the supply of the beverage concentrate to a receptacle, portions of the concentrate may adhere to the inner sidewall of the receptacle and thus may not completely dissolve in the beverage preparation process. Further, if the beverage concentrate is not completely dissolved in the diluent supplied to the container, the taste of the beverage may be different from the taste of the intended beverage. Therefore, a beverage preparation specific to a hot beverage (such as tea or coffee) is desired to have a replicable strength of the beverage to be prepared, wherein the concentration of the beverage corresponds to The amount of beverage concentrate supplied to the receptacle is not altered for each preparation. Accordingly, a device for preparing a beverage according to the above principles is sought which achieves complete dissolution of one of the beverage concentrates provided to the entire amount of the receptacle.

WO 2010/034722闡述一種用於允許基於提供至一盛器之食物濃縮物之一高效飲料製備之裝置及方法,該食物濃縮物與由一射流溶解裝置供應之熱水混合。該射流溶解裝置包含一板部件,該板部件包含用於將一稀釋射流注入至該盛器中之至少四個噴嘴,該等噴嘴相對於杯具提供特定不同定向以獲得一高效混合及起泡。此板部件亦可包含:-一噴嘴,其經設計以將一噴霧提供至該盛器,-一出口,其與一咖啡混合室連接以用於將咖啡注入至該盛器中,-一個額外噴嘴,與其他噴嘴相比其出口直徑較大,以便與其中應用一較小出口直徑噴嘴之情形相比以低壓力將一較大量之稀釋劑提供至該盛器。 WO 2010/034722 describes an apparatus and method for allowing efficient beverage preparation based on one of food concentrates provided to a receptacle that is mixed with hot water supplied by a jet dissolving device. The jet dissolving device includes a plate member including at least four nozzles for injecting a dilution jet into the container, the nozzles providing a particular different orientation relative to the cup to achieve an efficient mixing and foaming. The plate member may also comprise: - a nozzle designed to provide a spray to the receptacle, - an outlet connected to a coffee mixing chamber for injecting coffee into the receptacle - an additional nozzle, The outlet diameter is larger compared to other nozzles to provide a larger amount of diluent to the receptacle at a lower pressure than if a smaller outlet diameter nozzle were used therein.

在此裝置中,該板部件中之噴嘴中之數個噴嘴連接至一熱水或冷水源且該板部件亦連接至形成該板部件上方之一擁擠空間之一咖啡混合室之出口。當必須維修該射流溶解裝置以進行修復或衛生清潔時,必須斷開整個裝置,即使維修僅涉及該等噴嘴中之一者,此非係操作者友好型的。 In this arrangement, a plurality of nozzles in the plate member are coupled to a source of hot or cold water and the plate member is also coupled to an outlet forming a coffee mixing chamber of one of the crowded spaces above the plate member. When the jet dissolving device must be repaired for repair or sanitary cleaning, the entire device must be disconnected, even if the repair involves only one of the nozzles, which is not operator friendly.

亦已觀察到,在製備飲料期間,液滴可自板部件之底部面上之容器上揚。由於上升至該表面之眾多噴嘴之存在,清潔可係困難的。 It has also been observed that during the preparation of the beverage, the droplets can rise from the container on the bottom side of the panel member. Cleaning can be difficult due to the presence of numerous nozzles that rise to the surface.

此外,已注意到,可難以調適及改良此一現有裝置:由 於每一噴嘴位置係明確地設定之事實,關於(舉例而言)不同噴嘴之定向之新改良之實施極受限。 In addition, it has been noted that it may be difficult to adapt and improve this existing device: The fact that each nozzle position is explicitly set, the implementation of new improvements regarding, for example, the orientation of different nozzles is extremely limited.

參照以下各圖將更好地理解本發明之特性及優點。 The features and advantages of the present invention will be better understood from the following description.

圖1係根據先前技術之一施配器之一溶解裝置之一示意圖。如在圖1中可見,一板部件2包含四個噴嘴4(僅圖解說明2個)。另外,該板部件包含與安裝於該板部件上之一咖啡混合室5流體連接之一出口3。板部件2較佳包含經設計以朝向放置於板部件2下面之一盛器注入一噴霧A5之一噴嘴8。噴嘴4、噴嘴8及混合室5流體連接至該裝置之稀釋劑供應構件6。該等稀釋劑供應構件較佳包含一水箱6a,個別地係適於將一稀釋劑提供至該裝置之一貯器。應注意,替代一貯器,該裝置可連接至一水龍頭以便建立一永久性稀釋劑供應。該等稀釋劑供應構件包含連接至該貯器且將稀釋劑提供至水供應構件6之一煮器6c之一幫浦6b。藉此,替代一煮器,可提供一熱區塊或其他合適加熱構件。根據此實施例,該水供應構件經設計以用於供應一加熱加壓稀釋劑。然而,在一較佳實施例中,可提供一旁路水路徑(未展示)以便繞過加熱構件6c且因此用於將一加壓冷水提供至噴嘴4(各別地提供至噴嘴8)。稀釋劑供應構件6及噴嘴4(各別地噴嘴8)及混合室5之間的流體連接係藉助示意性地展示於圖1中之管狀部件4a、5a、8a建立。在混合室5、噴嘴4及噴嘴8之間的流體連接內,配置閥部件23、24、25。該等閥部件具有至少一打開位置及一關閉位置,其中 分別啟用或停用自該稀釋劑供應構件至出口噴嘴4、噴嘴8或混合室5之一稀釋劑流動。藉此,閥部件23、24、25較佳連接至控制該等閥部件之位置之一控制單元7。因此,可選擇性地將稀釋劑提供至噴嘴4、噴嘴8及混合室5。然而,具有連接於稀釋劑供應構件6與噴嘴4之間的僅一個閥部件(例如,閥部件23)可亦係可能的。藉此,噴嘴4流體連接至連接至閥部件23之一單個管狀部件(例如,管狀部件4a)。管狀部件4a可(舉例而言)連接至板部件2中之一圓形通道,該圓形通道引出至不同出口噴嘴中。由於出口噴嘴4流體連接至管狀部件4a,因此啟用自管狀部件4a至出口噴嘴4之稀釋劑散佈。應理解,出口噴嘴4可包含適於朝向盛器13引導一流體射流之任何構件。該等噴嘴之孔可係不同大小以提供不同水壓力。 BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS Figure 1 is a schematic illustration of one of the dissolution devices of one of the dispensers of the prior art. As can be seen in Figure 1, one plate member 2 contains four nozzles 4 (only two are illustrated). Additionally, the plate member includes an outlet 3 fluidly coupled to a coffee mixing chamber 5 mounted to the plate member. The plate member 2 preferably includes a nozzle 8 designed to inject a spray A5 toward a receptacle placed below the plate member 2. The nozzle 4, the nozzle 8 and the mixing chamber 5 are fluidly connected to the diluent supply member 6 of the device. The diluent supply members preferably comprise a water tank 6a, individually adapted to provide a diluent to one of the devices. It should be noted that instead of a receptacle, the device can be connected to a faucet to establish a permanent diluent supply. The diluent supply members include a pump 6b connected to the reservoir and supplying the diluent to one of the boilers 6c of the water supply member 6. Thereby, instead of a boiler, a hot block or other suitable heating means can be provided. According to this embodiment, the water supply member is designed to supply a heated pressurized diluent. However, in a preferred embodiment, a bypass water path (not shown) may be provided to bypass the heating member 6c and thus to provide a pressurized cold water to the nozzles 4 (provided separately to the nozzles 8). The fluid connection between the diluent supply member 6 and the nozzles 4 (individual nozzles 8) and the mixing chamber 5 is established by means of the tubular members 4a, 5a, 8a shown schematically in Figure 1. Valve members 23, 24, 25 are disposed in the fluid connection between the mixing chamber 5, the nozzle 4, and the nozzle 8. The valve components have at least one open position and a closed position, wherein The diluent flow from the diluent supply member to the outlet nozzle 4, the nozzle 8 or the mixing chamber 5 is respectively enabled or disabled. Thereby, the valve members 23, 24, 25 are preferably connected to one of the control units 7 that control the position of the valve members. Therefore, the diluent can be selectively supplied to the nozzle 4, the nozzle 8, and the mixing chamber 5. However, it is also possible to have only one valve member (e.g., valve member 23) connected between the diluent supply member 6 and the nozzle 4. Thereby, the nozzle 4 is fluidly connected to a single tubular member (for example, the tubular member 4a) connected to one of the valve members 23. The tubular member 4a can, for example, be connected to one of the circular passages in the plate member 2 that is led out into the different outlet nozzles. Since the outlet nozzle 4 is fluidly connected to the tubular member 4a, the diluent dispersion from the tubular member 4a to the outlet nozzle 4 is enabled. It should be understood that the outlet nozzle 4 can comprise any member adapted to direct a fluid jet toward the receptacle 13. The orifices of the nozzles can be of different sizes to provide different water pressures.

然而,該等出口噴嘴亦可形成為該板部件之一組成部分,諸如(舉例而言)形成於板部件2中之孔。 However, the outlet nozzles may also be formed as an integral part of the plate member, such as, for example, a hole formed in the plate member 2.

如在圖1中可見,至噴嘴4之一稀釋劑供應產生自對應噴嘴4射出之一稀釋劑射流A2、A4。藉此,該等出口噴嘴較佳配置於板部件2處,以便將流體射流A2引導至放置於板部件2下面之一支撐構件10上之一盛器13之一底部部分13a。此外,噴嘴4中之至少一者經配置以使得所射出流體射流A4撞擊盛器13之一側壁部分13b。藉此,被引導至盛器13之一底部部分13a之流體射流提供用於使較佳以粉末形式提供至該盛器之一食物物質溶解之基本力。此外,被引導至該盛器之一側壁部分13b之流體射流能夠防止食物 物質黏附至該盛器之側壁。在板部件2之中心處,出口3自咖啡混合室5遞送一咖啡射流C。 As can be seen in Figure 1, a supply of diluent to one of the nozzles 4 produces a diluent jet A2, A4 emerging from the corresponding nozzle 4. Thereby, the outlet nozzles are preferably arranged at the plate member 2 to guide the fluid jet A2 to a bottom portion 13a of one of the receptacles 13 placed on one of the support members 10 below the plate member 2. Furthermore, at least one of the nozzles 4 is configured such that the ejected fluid jet A4 strikes one of the side wall portions 13b of the receptacle 13. Thereby, the fluid jet directed to one of the bottom portions 13a of the receptacle 13 provides a basic force for dissolving the food material preferably provided in powder form to one of the receptacles. Further, the fluid jet guided to the side wall portion 13b of the receptacle can prevent food The substance adheres to the side wall of the container. At the center of the plate member 2, the outlet 3 delivers a coffee jet C from the coffee mixing chamber 5.

圖2係根據先前技術供應該等出口噴嘴及該噴嘴之管狀部件4a、5a、8a所連接至之板部件2之一俯視圖。咖啡混合室5座落於該板上以使得其出口穿過該板而引出。管11a供應較佳具有大於其他噴嘴之一出口直徑之一額外噴嘴。 Figure 2 is a top plan view of the plate member 2 to which the outlet nozzles and the tubular members 4a, 5a, 8a of the nozzle are attached, according to the prior art. The coffee mixing chamber 5 is seated on the plate such that its outlet exits through the plate. The tube 11a supplies an additional nozzle preferably having one of the outlet diameters of one of the other nozzles.
