Embodiment Construction

[0035] figure 1 The beverage preparation device 1 of the present invention is shown. The beverage preparation device 1 includes a mixing unit 2 including a mixing chamber for preparing a beverage from soluble ingredients and diluents entering the mixing chamber. The beverage preparation device 1 also includes a reservoir or tank 3 for soluble ingredients, which is arranged above the mixing unit 2 and is coupled with the metering unit 4. The main function of the metering and feeding unit 4 is to meter multiple ingredients into the mixing unit 2 upon request.

[0036] The ingredient reservoir 3 may be a funnel, which may be permanent or may be a disposable package containing soluble ingredients. The metering and feeding unit 4 may be any suitable system, such as a feeding screw, a reciprocating feeding piston or a rotating disk. Preferably, the dosing unit 4 can be designed as described above or according to WO2009 / 144239A1.

[0037] Upon request, the mixing unit 2 is supplied wit...

Abstract

The present invention describes a beverage production apparatus (1), comprising: - a mixing chamber (21) - a slider (22b) for supporting the mixing chamber (21) and moving the mixing chamber (21), - a chamber receiving area (22a) for receiving the mixing chamber (21),wherein the chamber receiving area(22)and the slider (22b)comprise cooperating means for sliding the slider (22b) in respect to the chamber receiving area(22a), - a motor (41) for operating the movement of the slider between a metering and a mixing positions, wherein the apparatus comprises: - a current sensing unit (13) for measuring the current of the motor (41) and comparing the measured current with a predetermined threshold value, and - a warning unit (14) for issuing a warning signal, when the measured current exceeds the predetermined threshold value.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to a beverage preparation equipment and a beverage preparation method. Background technique [0002] A beverage preparation device is known from the prior art (see, for example, WO2009 / 144239A1), which is configured to prepare a beverage by supplying soluble beverage ingredients and mixing it with a diluent in a mixing chamber. The mixing chamber can move between the mixing position and the metering position. At the metering position, the metering unit is operated to provide a portion of the soluble beverage ingredient into the mixing chamber. The movement is controlled by the motor of the dosing unit and supported by a sliding member with a side groove in which the corresponding flange on the side of the mixing chamber can slide. The rod can lock the mixing chamber in the slide. By unlocking the lever and sliding the mixing chamber in the slider to the end of the side groove, the mixing chamber can be removed from the beverage prep...
