Embodiment Construction

[0042] Such as figure 1 As shown, the foam beverage preparation device 1 comprises a hot water generating system 2 . This hot water generating system 2 preferably comprises a water reservoir 3 allowing pre-stored cold water, a pump 4 allowing the circulation of the water, a heating element 5 of the resistive type and a pipe 6 . The heating element allows heating of the water, said pipe consisting for example of a flexible pipe in which the water in the reservoir flows up to the end 6a of the pipe where it is dispensed and heated. These features are known to those skilled in the art; therefore these features will not be described in detail. Modifications are of course conceivable. For example, the reservoir 3 can be omitted and the pump 4 can be connected directly to the external drinking water supply.

[0043] Such as figure 1 As shown, the hot water generation system 2 is connected to the water injection system 7 . The water injection system 7 consists of a shower head 8...

Abstract

The present invention relates to a device for preparing a foamed beverage (1) from a soluble product in the form of a powder or granules. The invention also relates to a machine provided with such a device. The aim of the invention is to improve the quality of the foamed beverage (16) prepared. The device (1) includes a system for producing hot water (2), a water-ejection system (7) ejecting fine jets (27) of hot water and a receptacle (13) in which said product is placed. The receptacle and the water-ejection system are arranged relative to one another such that the fine jets of water directly impact the product while blending air into said product during the solubilisation thereof, so as to form said foamed beverage. According to the invention, the receptacle comprises a screen (18) which includes pores configured to hold the product prior to the solubilisation thereof and to allow the foamed beverage to pass therethrough while calibrating the foam. In addition, the device includes a vessel (20) arranged inside the receptacle (13, 13') above the screen (18), the vessel including a bottom wall (20a) which comprises at least one opening (21) arranged above said screen.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a device for preparing a frothy drink using a powdered or granular soluble product, such as a granular milk product or chocolate, and simultaneously using one or more streams of hot water directed onto said product products, soluble coffee or other products. The invention also relates to a machine equipped with such a foam beverage preparation device. Background technique [0002] Machines are known from the prior art that are equipped with a steam nozzle system that allows steam to be injected under pressure into the cup during the preparation of the beverage in order to froth the beverage. This type of design is less economical since it consumes a lot of energy for steam generation. [0003] Several documents are also known in the prior art disclosing machines and / or devices for the preparation of frothy beverages using powdered or granular products and at the same time using a hot fine water stream, these documents...
