Definitions

  • the invention relates to a cold beverage machine for the provision of a cold, in particular a carbon dioxide-impregnated refreshment beverage from a pure fresh water prepared for drinking water, taken from a water supply network and / or from such a drinking water and at least one lemonade base material or the like produced mixture for installation in a particularly hygienically sensitive area, for example a hospital, consisting of a fresh water connection to the water supply network for a fresh water line, a carbonator for impregnating the fresh water with carbon dioxide, one of which is preferably already impregnated fresh water Cooling device, a mixing device for mixing the drinking water with the lemonade base material or the like stored in at least one storage container, a removal shaft for removing the finished, from a dispenser opening conveyable soft drink, a replaceable carbon dioxide source, for example at least one gas bottle, and a housing in which all the necessary assemblies, fittings, lines, conveying, control and regulating devices and the like are installed.
  • Cold drinks machines of this type have been known for a long time and are widely used.
  • the soft drink that can be prepared with them is dispensed into beakers or similar dispensing vessels, which are introduced into the dispensing shaft below the dispenser opening and filled out again in a correspondingly filled manner.
  • the associated filling can be done by a hand or light barrier operated electrical switch that initiates the promotion of the soft drink.
  • the soft drink can be pure water or drinking water impregnated with carbon dioxide, but it is more common to mix it with a lemonade base or the like.
  • dispenser opening can be contaminated because even dangerous, pathogenic germs such as viruses can be transmitted very quickly in a particularly hygienically sensitive area.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object of designing a cold drinks machine of the type specified at the outset in such a way that the refreshment drinks prepared therein, optionally also pure drinking water, consistently low in germs to an extent permissible for the aforementioned, hygienically sensitive area and, thereof can be removed independently, in a guaranteeable, taste-responsive and physiologically advantageous state, and that, in addition, ice cubes can also be produced therewith, which are likewise low in germs and remain low in germs until they are used.
  • the object is first achieved in that the dispenser opening is sunk in the dispensing shaft and is fitted so that it cannot be touched by a user of the cold beverage machine with the fingers and is protected against impact pollution, that in the fresh water Line between the fresh water connection and the cooling device, a water filter is provided in such a way that it ensures a defined disinfection of the fresh water, but it is passable for minerals dissolved in the fresh water, that a closable connection piece in the Fresh water line is arranged in front of and behind the water filter for sampling the unfiltered and filtered fresh water, and that the fresh water line is finally equipped with an inlet connection through which a disinfectant fluid can be fed.
  • Special feed pumps for the drinking water and / or the lemonade base material can be provided, but they are not necessary if the gas pressure provided by the carbon dioxide source is used as a conveying means for the drinking water impregnated with carbon dioxide and / or in the same way the gas pressure provided by the carbon dioxide source serves as a conveying means for the lemonade base material or the like in the mixing device.
  • the details of such devices are customary in the trade and do not have to be explained.
  • At least one feed pump can also be used to promote the lemonade base material or the like from the storage container into the mixing device, but it is also possible that at least one pressure line for the carbon dioxide connects the carbon dioxide source with the storage container pneumatically so that the lemonade base material is conveyed into the mixing device by the gas pressure present.
  • the mixing device is the merging of two line strings for the carbonated, cooled drinking water and at least one lemonade base material or the like.
  • the quantity-precise filling of a removal container deposited in the removal shaft is usually carried out with electrically controlled valves by touch switches; it is particularly user-friendly if the removal shaft is provided with a light barrier which controls the delivery of a certain amount of the refreshment beverage from the dispenser opening, so that operation is simplified.
  • Effective protection of the subsidized refreshment beverage can be achieved in that the removal shaft is provided with a closure for the dispenser opening, which can only be opened when a sensor securing a removal opening of the removal shaft, which is preferably designed as a light barrier, does not interfere with one User signals.
  • the removal shaft is provided with a height-adjustable storage area for a removal vessel. This makes it possible for each user to use an individual, reusable, possibly sterilized removal container, so that no environmentally harmful disposable containers are required.
  • a collecting trough for excess liquids is provided below the storage surface and opens into a drain line leading out of the housing. This can then lead directly into a sewage section.
  • the cold beverage machine is equipped with a refrigeration machine, in particular with a compression refrigeration machine, it being possible to provide an ice cube maker which is cooled by the refrigeration machine, in particular in that its evaporator is part of the ice cube. Is trained. In this way, a very compact device is created which can now be used for the preparation of both a refreshing beverage from ice cubes and also avoids separate devices for both products.
  • the low-germ production of the ice cubes is advantageously ensured in that the ice cube maker is connected to the fresh water line in such a way that fresh water which is filtered and optionally cooled in the cooling device can be fed in for the production of the ice cubes.
  • the water filter that is already available for drinking water treatment is therefore used several times.
  • the arrangement is particularly favorable if a conveyor device, for example a screw conveyor, is provided, by means of which the ice cubes produced in the ice cube maker can be conveyed into the removal shaft; the automatic, non-invasive conveying ensures that no contamination has to be feared even on the conveying path into the removal shaft.
  • a conveyor shaft is arranged on the ice cube maker in such a way that that the ice cubes produced in the ice cube maker can be transported by gravity into the conveyor, preferably via an intermediate store.
  • the screw conveyor can be operated increasing in the conveying direction.
  • the cold drinks machine is particularly user-friendly if a delivery opening is provided in the removal shaft for the ice cubes that can be fed in by the delivery device, so that these can be removed at the same point as the refreshment drink and the associated collecting tray can be used.
  • This conveying opening can be protected, for example, from the user and from hitting dirt particles and the like in that it is provided with an automatic closure, against the closing force of which the ice cubes can be conveyed from the conveying device into the removal shaft and which is preferably designed as a gravity-operated flap.
  • the arrangement can be made in a simple manner so that the ice cubes can open the flap against its own weight and can leave the conveying opening when the conveying device is actuated.
  • the entire device works with low energy expenditure, especially if a thermal insulation layer is provided which thermally separates an area for the ice cube production both from the surroundings and from a remaining area for the preparation of the refreshment beverage and the removal shaft.
  • the cold drinks machine eliminates the disadvantages of the prior art with surprisingly simple means and at the same time ensures that the advantages of a microbiological in Hospitals and similar safe refreshment beverages are also extended to the production of ice cubes, to which an equally high standard with regard to their hygienic safety must be applied in the same area of application.
  • a cold beverage machine first comprises a housing 1 for receiving all the necessary components and functional groups of such a complex device.
  • the housing 1 rests on four transport wheels 11, each of which can be freely rotated about a vertical pivot axis 12 which is stationary on the housing 1 and about a horizontal wheel axis 13, as the comparison of FIG. 1 with FIGS. 2 and 3 shows.
  • the entire cold beverage dispenser is therefore easy to move on a level corridor; it can of course also be set up without transport wheels 11 and relatively stationary.
  • the housing 1 is divided by partition walls or floors in a conventional manner into a plurality of preferably cubic room compartments in which the individual structural and functional groups are accommodated separately from one another as required.
  • a fresh water connection 20 is provided in accordance with FIGS. 2 and 3 for feeding fresh water 21 into the cold beverage machine according to the invention from a public water supply network.
  • the fresh water 21 first passes through the static pressure prevailing in the water supply network into a water filter 22 in which the organic, in particular the micro-organic components are largely filtered out of the fresh water 21, but which allows the inorganic-mineral admixtures to pass as far as they are for taste and health are useful.
  • the low-germ or aseptic fresh water 21 prepared in this way forms the starting material for a drinking water 21a, which is then available for direct consumption and / or forms the basis for the production of a refreshing beverage 21b and / or ice cubes 21c.
  • a connecting piece 24a and 24b are provided in a fresh water line 23, which are closed when not in use, but each allow sampling of the fresh water 21 if necessary, so that the functionality of the water filter 22 can be continuously checked, without the cold beverage machine having to be taken out of operation.
  • a carbonator 31 is provided as part of a pressurized gas system 3, in which the fresh water 21 is impregnated with carbon dioxide, which is supplied from a carbon dioxide source 33 via a gas line 32.
  • the carbon dioxide source 33 consists of gas cylinders 33a and 33b which are connected in parallel in terms of flow technology and which can therefore be emptied individually.
  • the filling pressure of the respective gas bottle 33a, 33b is displayed on a pressure reducing valve 34.
  • the entire carbon dioxide source 33 is in the lower region of the Housing 1 in order to simplify the replacement of the heavy gas bottles 33a, 33b.
  • a cooling device 4 is installed, in which the carbonated fresh water 21 can be heated; it can be recooled in the countercurrent process by fresh water 21 that has not yet been treated, by the evaporator of a refrigeration machine or in some other way to such an extent that it has the most favorable temperature for a refreshing beverage, which is no longer decisive due to a possibly later mixed lemonade base material 50 is changeable.
  • the now prepared, consumable drinking water 21a is conveyed via a first transport line 41 into a mixing device 60, from which it can, with the optionally mixed lemonade base material 50, pass directly through a dispenser opening 61 into a removal shaft 62 and into a dehumidification vessel 63 placed there.
  • the lemonade base material 50 is stored in storage containers 5, from which it also reaches the mixing device 60 via a second transport line 51.
  • Both the drinking water 21a and the lemonade base material 50 can be conveyed by means of externally, for example, electrically driven feed pumps; the use of the carbon dioxide source 33 as a drive is likewise possible, and for this purpose a pressure line 35 is provided which connects the carbon dioxide source 33 to the storage containers 5.
  • the pressure reducing valve 34 must be suitable for simultaneously providing carbon dioxide of various static pressures.
  • the storage containers 5 are located in the upper part of the housing 1 above the mixing device 60, which in turn is located directly above the removal shaft 62, so that the dispenser opening 61 connects directly to the mixing device 60.
  • the associated expenditure on control elements and control circuit including the necessary control elements is customary in the art and does not cause high costs.
  • a shelf 65 in the removal shaft 62 is adjustable in height, for example by the fact that it can be inserted at different heights in guides of the removal shaft 62. In this way it can be adapted to differently sized removal vessels 63. It is suitably designed so that excess liquid can run off. To drain them off, there is a drip pan 66 below the storage surface 62, from which the collected liquid can be disposed of directly into a waste water line via a drain line 67.
  • a complete ice cube maker 7 is integrated in the cold drinks machine.
  • a compressor refrigeration machine 71 is accommodated in the level of the removal shaft 62, the evaporator 72 of which is arranged in the upper part of the housing 1 next to the storage containers 5, of which the ice cube maker 7 is thermally insulated by a heat insulation layer 14 is separated.
  • the ice cubes 21c formed in an ice cube container 73 can fall through a conveyor shaft 74 into an intermediate store 75, from which they can be removed by means of a Conveying device 76 forming conveyor can be transported into a conveyor opening opening into the removal shaft 62.
  • the wastewater generated on the ice cube maker 7 and in particular on the evaporator 72 is expediently discharged via the collecting trough 66.
  • the fresh water required for the preparation of the ice cubes 21c is obtained from the branch of the transport line 41 from the ice cube container 73 and consequently has the same quality as the treated drinking water.
  • a closure 78 of the conveyor opening 77 ensures that it cannot be contaminated through the removal shaft 62, because the closure 78, which is designed as a flap that can be pivoted about a horizontal axis, can only be opened in the conveying direction of the ice cubes 21c, but blocks the conveying opening 77 in the opposite direction.
  • the heat insulating layer 14 insulates all the other areas provided for the ice cubes 21c in addition to the actual ice cube maker 7.
  • an inlet connection 25 in the fresh water line 23 makes it possible to flush the entire water circuit with a disinfectant in order to destroy any germs that may have accumulated.
