Definitions
- the invention relates to a device for the preparation of mixed beverages, with a mixing chamber arranged in a housing, which has a filling opening in its upper region and with at least one extract container arranged above the filling opening for receiving a powdery soluble extract of in particular coffee, with a metering device of the extract container, from which the powdery soluble extract can be fed to the mixing chamber via a metering opening, the extract supplied by the metering device being miscible with a particularly hot liquid such as water to the mixed drink in the mixing chamber.
- Known devices of this type have a plurality of extract containers, each of which can be filled with a different powdery soluble extract. According to the preselection by a user of the device, a portion of the mixing chamber is supplied from the extract container with the desired extract from this desired extract and there with a liquid such as e.g. hot water mixed into a mixed drink.
- a liquid such as e.g. hot water mixed into a mixed drink.
- this device can have only a few extract containers for reasons of size, only a few different extracts can be selected for mixed drinks.
- the large variety of powdered soluble extracts for mixed drinks offered today cannot therefore be used. Examples of such mixed drinks from soluble extracts are coffee, milk coffee, espresso, decaffeinated coffee, chocolate, cappuccino, tea, milk and coffee with cocoa.
- the object of the invention is to provide a device of the type mentioned at the beginning, which enables the preparation of an unlimited number of different mixed drinks in a simple manner.
- This object is achieved in that a feed opening is arranged, through which another powdery soluble extract can be fed manually to the mixing chamber.
- a simple possibility of a feed opening consists in that the filling opening of the mixing chamber is partly covered by the extract container or containers and the other part of the filling opening forms the feed opening.
- the part of the filling opening forming the feed opening can be exposed.
- the other part of the insertion opening which forms the feed opening can be closed by a cover which can be pivotably mounted on the housing in a simple manner.
- a further, likewise simple possibility of a feed opening consists in the mixing chamber being arranged in a receptacle which is arranged in the housing so as to be movable in a feed position from a working position in which the filling opening is completely or partially covered by the extract container or containers, in which the filler opening is exposed to form the feed opening.
- the receptacle of the mixing chamber can either be moved linearly or from its working position into its feed position or can be pivoted about a horizontal or vertical pivot axis from its working position into its feed position.
- the feed opening can be formed in the upper region of a feed chamber of the housing and the further powdery soluble extract can be fed from the feed chamber to the mixing chamber by means of a transport system.
- the mixing chamber has an outlet, which in particular leads to the outside via an outlet nozzle.
- a drinking vessel can be placed under this outlet, into which the mixed drink can run.
- a particularly well-mixed drink from a well-dissolved powder extract is available if a mixing rotor that can be driven by a motor to rotate about an axis of rotation is arranged in the mixing chamber.
- a mixing rotor that can be driven by a motor to rotate about an axis of rotation
- the mixing rotor and / or the cream rotor can be rotatably driven by an electric motor.
- the creme chamber has an outlet, which in particular leads to the outside via an outlet connection.
- FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a first embodiment of a device for the preparation of mixed drinks
- FIG. 2 is a perspective view of a second embodiment of a device for preparing mixed drinks in the working position
- FIG. 3 shows the device according to FIG. 2 in the feed position
- FIG. 4 shows a perspective view of a third exemplary embodiment of a device for preparing mixed drinks in the working position
- FIG. 5 shows the device according to FIG. 4 in the feed position
- FIG. 6 is a perspective view of a fourth embodiment of a device for preparing mixed drinks in the working position
- Fig. 7 shows the device of Fig. 6 in the feed position
- Fig. 8 is a perspective view of a fifth embodiment of a device for the preparation of mixed drinks.
- the devices for preparing mixed drinks shown in the figures have a housing 1 with a base part 2, which has a drinking vessel indentation 3, into which a drinking vessel 4 can be placed.
- a receptacle 5, 5 ′, 5 ′′, which has a funnel-shaped mixing chamber 6, is arranged in the base part 2 of the housing 1, adjacent to the drinking vessel indentation 3.
- the mixing chamber 6 has a filling opening 7 in its upper region.
- each extract container 8, 8 ' is arranged for the respective reception of a certain type of powdered soluble extract. From a metering opening (not shown) of each extract container 8, 8 ', powdery soluble extract can be fed to the mixing chamber 6 by means of a metering device (also not shown).
- the mixing chamber 6 can be supplied with hot water from a water supply device, not shown.
- the receptacle 5, 5 ', 5 there is an electric motor for rotatably driving a mixing rotor arranged in the mixing chamber 6, from which a portion of powdery soluble extract supplied to the mixing chamber 6 is mixed with the hot water supplied by the water supply device until the powdery one Extract is completely dissolved in the water and a mixed drink has been created.
- the filling opening 7 of the mixing chamber is only partially covered by the extract containers 8, 8 ', while the other part of the filling opening 7 forms a feed opening 9 into which one can extract the soluble extracts into the Extract containers 8, 8 'of further powdery soluble extract can be filled manually and fed to the mixing chamber 6.
- the feed opening 9 is exposed, while in the embodiment of FIGS. 6 and 7 it can be closed by a cover 10.
- the lid 10 is pivotally mounted on the housing 1.
- the filling opening 7 is completely covered by the extract containers 8, 8 '.
- the mixing chamber in the exemplary embodiments in FIGS. mer as an insert part in a receptacle 11, 11 'which is movably arranged in the base part 2 of the housing 1 from a working position (FIGS. 2 and 4) into a feed position (FIGS. 3 and 5).
- the receptacle 5 ' is linearly displaceable between the working position and feed position, while in the embodiment of Figures 4 and 5 the receptacle 5 "about a horizontal pivot axis in its lower, front area between the working position and the feed position is pivotable.
- the filling opening 7 of the mixing chamber 6 is exposed and at the same time forms a feeding opening 9 'for the manual filling of the further powdery soluble extract.
- a separate, upwardly open feed chamber 12 is formed in the base part 2, the opening of which forms a feed opening 9 ′′ in the upper region, through which another powdery soluble extract can be manually filled into the feed chamber 12.
- the further extract can be fed from the feed chamber 12 to the mixing chamber 6 by means of a transport system (not shown).
- an outlet leads to the outside, from which the finished mixed drink can flow directly into the drinking vessel 4 standing in the drinking vessel indentation 3.
