Definitions
- the invention relates to a foaming device for foaming and heating liquid food and drinks according to the preamble of claim 1.
- the compressed air is mixed in the pressure tube with the steam and this vapor-air mixture passes through the open end of the pressure line in the milk, which is heated by the steam and mixed with the air with foaming.
- the steam and compressed air supply is controlled by valves, which are controlled by a control unit. This device is relatively expensive, since the air supply must be made under pressure and this pressure is provided with an additional device.
- a frothing device for preparing cappuccino is known from DE 36 44 519 A1.
- a steam pipe in this case has a steam nozzle, which is connected upstream of a mixing chamber into which an air duct opens.
- the steam pipe and the air duct are arranged side by side. From the mixing chamber then exits a mixture of steam and air in the fluid to be foamed.
- This foaming device has the disadvantage that it can not be dismantled for cleaning purposes. This is disadvantageous because the steam pipe and the air duct is immersed in milk or latte coffee without the steam supply is opened. In this case, the liquid can penetrate into the fine channels of the steam or air supply and pollute them, which can clog them or cause unhygienic conditions.
- the present invention has for its object to overcome these disadvantages of known devices for heating and frothing of beverages and in particular of milk in a vessel. This object is achieved by the inventive device with the characterizing features of claim 1.
- the invention is based on the finding that when flowing through steam through a constriction in the steam pipe at the constriction, a negative pressure arises. Due to the negative pressure, air is sucked in from the environment through an opening arranged in this area and mixed with the steam in the subsequent steam pipe.
- This known as venturi or Venturi nozzle arrangement is further developed into a steam lance, whose lower open end is formed to a nozzle opening.
- the area of the steam lance between the Venturi nozzle and the lower opening forms the mixing chamber, in which the steam mixes with the sucked air as it flows through.
- the Venturi nozzle with the air intake opening is arranged in the upper region of the steam lance in such a way that in use it lies outside the liquid to be heated and foamed.
- FIG. 1 shows a section through an exemplary embodiment of the inventive steam lance, shown schematically;
- Fig. 2 shows another example embodiment of the air supply in the steam pipe, shown schematically.
- the same reference numerals have been used for the same elements and first explanations relate to all figures, unless expressly stated otherwise.
- This steam lance 1 consists of a made of metal or plastic pipe 4, which is connected to a steam treatment device D, not shown here, such as a boiler and / or a water heater, connected.
- the connection 11 of the steam lance 1 to the pipe or hose of the steam treatment device D can be done by plugging by means of a rubber grommet or by screwing the steam pipe, depending on the design and application. It is also conceivable that the steam lance 1 is firmly connected to the steam line of the steam treatment.
- the tube 4 Immediately after the connection region 11, the tube 4 has a conical constriction 5 formed in the interior of a Venturi nozzle.
- the length of the steam pipe 4 in the region of the mixing chamber 6 is selected such that the region of the constriction 5 and the air duct 9 is located above the liquid level 8 even when the steam lance 1 is completely submerged in the liquid 3.
- the described steam lance 1 is made in one piece, but may also be composed of individual pipe sections. These pipe sections may for example consist of a connection section 11, a venturi nozzle section, a further pipe section which forms the mixing chamber 6 and an outlet nozzle 7. In a further conceivable embodiment, a Venturi nozzle is inserted into a steam pipe and fixed in the steam pipe.
- the steam pipe has holes or slots at appropriate locations through which the air can flow into the venturi.
- FIG. 2 shows a section of the steam pipe 4 of the steam lance 1 with a further embodiment for feeding the air L into the mixing chamber 6.
- the steam pipe 4 has two approximately conical or funnel-shaped, oppositely directed constriction 5, 15 of the steam pipe 4, such that a first constriction 5 opens with a smaller inner diameter of the outlet opening in a second, opposing constriction 15 with larger inner diameter. Due to the different inner diameters of the two constrictions 5, 15 opening into one another, an air gap 16 results.
- the steam pipe 4 has one or more holes or slots 14 in the area between the first and the second constrictions.
- the suction of air is carried out according to the invention in the upper region of the steam lance with a pipe arranged in this region and acting on the Venturi principle pipe constriction or nozzle.
- This area is always above the liquid level when heating and foaming liquids with this steam lance so that the air intake area with the Venturi nozzle never comes into contact with the liquid to be foamed.

Abstract
L'invention concerne un dispositif servant à chauffer et à faire mousser des aliments liquides et des boissons, en particulier du lait, au moyen d'un mélange vapeur-air (DL) produit à l'extérieur du liquide (3). Le mélange vapeur-air est introduit au moyen d'une lance à vapeur (1) dans le liquide (3) contenu dans un récipient (2). La lance à vapeur (1) est constituée d'un tuyau à vapeur (4) pouvant être connecté à une unité de préparation de vapeur, qui comporte, immédiatement après la zone de raccord (11), un rétrécissement (5) interne, réalisé sous la forme d'une buse Venturi, pourvu d'au moins une ouverture (9,14) servant à l'aspiration d'air. Le rétrécissement (5) pourvu de l'ouverture (9,14) d'aspiration d'air est séparé de l'ouverture de sortie (7) de la lance à vapeur (1) par une distance telle que ce rétrécissement (5) se trouve au-dessus du niveau (8) du liquide (3) contenu dans le récipient (2) lorsque la lance à vapeur (1) est complètement introduite dans le liquide (3) à chauffer ou à faire mousser.
