Steam wand for a coffee machine

Abstract

Steam wand (100) for a coffee machine (10), comprising: a rod-like lance body (101); an outlet area (110) for releasing steam and / or air from an interior of the lance body (101) into an environment of the lance body (101); wherein the outlet area (110) is arranged on a lateral surface (102) of the lance body (101) and is designed to release the steam and / or the air in such a way that the steam and / or the air forms a flow (180) which has a tangential flow direction with respect to the lance body and flows tangentially out of the lance body (101); characterized by the fact that the lateral surface (102) is curved in the circumferential direction of the lance body (101); the outlet area (110) is designed such that the flow direction of the steam and / or air is perpendicular to a longitudinal axis or extension direction in the longitudinal direction (105) of the lance body (101) along the outer surface (102); the outlet area (110) is designed such that the flow (180) formed by the steam and / or the air flows at least section by section around the lance body (180) and at least partially or section by section follows a curvature of the shell surface (102) in the circumferential direction.
