Description
Water-Jet Injection Device For Dispensers The present invention relates to a water-jet injection device in dispensers for making and dispensing mixtures of water and another free-flowing substance, in particular mixed drinks.
An example of such a water-jet injection device having a water-jet tube of the kind in question herein is known from DE 36 07 623 A1, published September 10, 1987, in Germany.
The water-jet tube of this water-jet injection device is inserted into the injector housing, i.e. in the end connected with a water supply portion or part, in such a way that the outlet end of the water-jet tube freely projects into a mixing chamber in the injector housing. An automatically opening valve can connect the mixing chamber with a supply container for the freely-flowing substance which is drawn into the mixing chamber by the action of the water jet leaving the water-jet tube. The mixture from the mixing chamber enters an inlet end, opposite the outlet end of the water-jet tube, of a nozzle and diffusion section, from which the mixture is discharged through a dispensing section.
Such water-jet injection devices are used in drink dispensers, for example. Between individual dispensing operations there may be intervals of varying length, during which the mixing chamber remains filled with residues from the mixture in that preceding dispensing operation. There ~ s is a risk that parts of this mixture may diffuse through the water-jet tube into the water in the water-supply section. This could result in hygienic problems, because microorganisms may develop, for example. In the mixing chamber, itself, the mixture still has a relatively high concentration of the free-flowing substance, but the concentration decreases due to dilution during diffusion into the water supply section. This further accentuates the hygienic problem.
Although attempts have been made to separate the water-jet injection device from the water supply section by a non-return valve during the intervals between dispensing, the hygienic problems can only be reduced to a limited extent, since the distance between the non-return valve and the mixing chamber has to be relatively long, resulting in a relatively large space filled with the dilute mixture.
Another difficulty is that the non-return valves result in considerable pressure losses in the flow system, making it necessary to use more powerful and thus more expensive pumps.
An object of the present invention is to solve the indicated problems in a simple manner, to reduce the danger of hygienic contamination and impairment of taste, if possible, without the need for more expensive pumps.
This invention provides a water-jet injection device in dispensers for producing and dispensing mixtures of water and another flowable substance or ingredient. The device includes an injector housing having a mixing chamber which is between a free outlet end of a water-jet tube inserted into the injector housing and opening thereinto, and an intake end of a nozzle section opposite thereto. The water-jet tube is connectable with a water-supply section on an intake side, and the mixing chamber is connectable with a supply container for the another flowable substance through a valve which opens automatically. The nozzle section is associated with a section for dispensing the mixture. The water-supply section is adapted to be automatically shut off from the mixing chamber by a valve which is situated directly in the water-jet tube, and is adjacent the free outlet end of the water-jet tube.
Preferably, the valve situated in the water-jet tube comprises a valve-closing body adapted to be biased into a closed position by a magnetic force. Conveniently, the valve-closing body is a valve-closing ball. Automatic shut off by the valve occurs when a flow condition of the water is low, and the valve re-opens when the water starts to stream in the water supply section. The valve to the supply container for the another flowable substance can be opened automatically by action of a water jet entering the mixing chamber.
In this construction, during intervals between dispensing, the shut-off between mixing chamber and water supply system occurs directly in the water-jet tube itself immediately in front of the nozzle end of the water-jet tube which freely projects into the mixing chamber. As a result, the space left between the shut-off point and the mixing chamber inside the water supply system is small, thus substantially eliminating contamination and hygienic problems which otherwise occur.
The non-round flow cross-section offers little resistance to flow. In order to further reduce the flow resistances in spite of the shut-off device, the flow portion can have a radially-profiled flow cross-section between the valve seat and the inlet of the discharge nozzle. With an open non-return valve this enables a relatively large flow cross-section to be kept free, so that flow resistance is low and normal, and less expensive pumps can be used.
Hereinafter, the invention is described in detail with respect to an embodiment which is shown in the accompanying diagrammatic drawings, in which:
Fig. 1 is a longitudinal section of a known dispenser having a water-jet injection device of conventional construction; and Fig. 2 is a larger cross-section through the water-jet tube according to the invention on an enlarged scale, incorporated in the injector housing of a water-jet injection device.
For better understanding of the invention, the possible use of a water-jet tube according to the invention is shown in Fig. 1.
The illustrated water-jet injection device comprises a casing 2 for connection to an elongate nozzle on a water supply section 1. A water-jet tube 3 is inserted firmly and in a sealing-tight manner in the nozzle, and its outlet end projects freely into a mixing chamber 8 in the injector casing. The free end of the water-jet tube is opposite the inlet end of a nozzle and diffusion section 4, which merges into a portion for delivery of the mixture. The mixing chamber 8 is also connected by a nozzle to a storage vessel 6 for the freely-flowing substance to be mixed with the water from the water-jet tube. A valve 7 is tightly inserted in the connecting region and is constructed so that, under the action of the water jet entering the mixing chamber 8, the valve automatically opens and allows the freely-flowing substance to flow from the storage vessel 6 into the mixing chamber 8, where the substance is mixed with water and discharged as a mixture through the nozzle and diffusion section into the delivery portion.
At the end of a dispensing operation, some of the mixture remains in the mixing chamber 8 and in the other parts of the injection device. This part of the mixture can diffuse through the water-jet tube 3 back into the water supply system 1, resulting in contamination and hygienic problems, and also with a possibly adverse effect on the taste of the next mixture to be dispensed.
To avoid these disadvantages, in the embodiment according to the invention in Fig. 2, a non-return valve is inserted in the water-jet tube 9. As in the known embodiment of Fig. 1, the water-jet tube is firmly and tightly inserted in the water supply nozzle of the injector casing 11, so that the delivery end 12 projects freely into the mixing chamber 13 of the injector casing. The arrow 10 shows the direction of flow of water from the water supply section, the arrow 14 shows entry into the nozzle and diffusion section (not shown), and the arrow 15 shows entry through the inlet valve (not shown) of the substance from the storage vessel (also not shown).
The free end of the water-jet tube is in the form of a discharge nozzle, having an inlet end 12a for water. A
valve seat 18a for a valve-closing ball 17 is provided directly in front of the inlet end 12a of the aforementioned nozzle portion. The valve-closing ball is made of non-rusting stainless but magnetisable material.
The valve seat 18a is made of permanently magnetic material, on the end pointing in the direction of flow, of a sleeve-like flow member 18 inserted directly into the water-jet tube. The flow member can be coated with a suitable material for preservation of food. The permanent magnet 18 is fitted in the water-jet tube, e.g. by means of a threaded sleeve 22, so as to be sealing-tight and axially-immovable, using sealing rings 20, 21 and a sealing sleeve 19.
A flow section 16 is disposed between the valve seat 18a and the inlet 12a of the nozzle end of the water-jet tube 12. The flow section has a profiled cross-section, and comprises an abutment 16a which limits the travel of the ball 17 when the valve is opened by the flow of incoming water. The flow section 16 can be formed inside the actual water-jet tube, or on a flow member insertable into the water-jet tube. The flow member can, for example, comprise three peripherally-distributed radial ribs and an annular member, resulting in a substantially star-shaped flow cross-section. The path along which the valve-closing ball 17 moves, ending at the abutment 16a, is provided in the flow member.
As can be seen, the space which the mixture can enter in the water-jet tube, between its free end and the valve seat 18a, is very small. Consequently, the mixture is only slightly diluted. This substantially alleviates hygienic problems and the risk of affecting the taste of the mixture. This small space is reliably cleaned by the high speed of the water whenever a flow occurs through the jet tube. The pressure losses are extremely small since, when the valve is open, the prestress on the ball by the magnetic force is small in the direction towards the valve seat and just sufficient to move the valve-closing ball back in the direction towards the valve seat when the water supply is terminated. When the valve is closed, however, the closing force is quite strong, since in this position of the ball 17 the magnetic gap is small and the ball is therefore held in the closed position by a strong magnetic force. Owing to the very small prestress in the open position, the flow resistance also is low after initial opening of the valve. The flow resistance can be kept particularly low by profiling in the region of the flow cross-sections 16. Initially the valve can be reliably opened by impact of water, by suitably designing the water supply.
The arrangement is very simple and economic, and has a reliable self-cleaning effect along the entire length of the water-jet tube.
Due to the motion of the valve-closing ball 17 toward the valve seat, the arrangement also can be used as a drip barrier preventing dripping at the end of the dispensing operation.
The jet tube having a non-return valve can, of course, be used in other metering or dispensing systems and in injection devices constructed differently from that specifically illustrated in Fig. 1.
An example of such a water-jet injection device having a water-jet tube of the kind in question herein is known from DE 36 07 623 A1, published September 10, 1987, in Germany.
The water-jet tube of this water-jet injection device is inserted into the injector housing, i.e. in the end connected with a water supply portion or part, in such a way that the outlet end of the water-jet tube freely projects into a mixing chamber in the injector housing. An automatically opening valve can connect the mixing chamber with a supply container for the freely-flowing substance which is drawn into the mixing chamber by the action of the water jet leaving the water-jet tube.

Hereinafter, the invention is described in detail with respect to an embodiment which is shown in the accompanying diagrammatic drawings, in which:
Fig. 1 is a longitudinal section of a known dispenser having a water-jet injection device of conventional construction; and Fig. 2 is a larger cross-section through the water-jet tube according to the invention on an enlarged scale, incorporated in the injector housing of a water-jet injection device.
For better understanding of the invention, the possible use of a water-jet tube according to the invention is shown in Fig. 1.
The illustrated water-jet injection device comprises a casing 2 for connection to an elongate nozzle on a water supply section 1. A water-jet tube 3 is inserted firmly and in a sealing-tight manner in the nozzle, and its outlet end projects freely into a mixing chamber 8 in the injector casing. The free end of the water-jet tube is opposite the inlet end of a nozzle and diffusion section 4, which merges into a portion for delivery of the mixture. The mixing chamber 8 is also connected by a nozzle to a storage vessel 6 for the freely-flowing substance to be mixed with the water from the water-jet tube. A valve 7 is tightly inserted in the connecting region and is constructed so that, under the action of the water jet entering the mixing chamber 8, the valve automatically opens and allows the freely-flowing substance to flow from the storage vessel 6 into the mixing chamber 8, where the substance is mixed with water and discharged as a mixture through the nozzle and diffusion section into the delivery portion.
At the end of a dispensing operation, some of the mixture remains in the mixing chamber 8 and in the other parts of the injection device. This part of the mixture can diffuse through the water-jet tube 3 back into the water supply system 1, resulting in contamination and hygienic problems, and also with a possibly adverse effect on the taste of the next mixture to be dispensed.
To avoid these disadvantages, in the embodiment according to the invention in Fig. 2, a non-return valve is inserted in the water-jet tube 9. As in the known embodiment of Fig. 1, the water-jet tube is firmly and tightly inserted in the water supply nozzle of the injector casing 11, so that the delivery end 12 projects freely into the mixing chamber 13 of the injector casing. The arrow 10 shows the direction of flow of water from the water supply section, the arrow 14 shows entry into the nozzle and diffusion section (not shown), and the arrow 15 shows entry through the inlet valve (not shown) of the substance from the storage vessel (also not shown).
The free end of the water-jet tube is in the form of a discharge nozzle, having an inlet end 12a for water. A
valve seat 18a for a valve-closing ball 17 is provided directly in front of the inlet end 12a of the aforementioned nozzle portion. The valve-closing ball is made of non-rusting stainless but magnetisable material.
The valve seat 18a is made of permanently magnetic material, on the end pointing in the direction of flow, of a sleeve-like flow member 18 inserted directly into the water-jet tube. The flow member can be coated with a suitable material for preservation of food. The permanent magnet 18 is fitted in the water-jet tube, e.g. by means of a threaded sleeve 22, so as to be sealing-tight and axially-immovable, using sealing rings 20, 21 and a sealing sleeve 19.
A flow section 16 is disposed between the valve seat 18a and the inlet 12a of the nozzle end of the water-jet tube 12. The flow section has a profiled cross-section, and comprises an abutment 16a which limits the travel of the ball 17 when the valve is opened by the flow of incoming water. The flow section 16 can be formed inside the actual water-jet tube, or on a flow member insertable into the water-jet tube. The flow member can, for example, comprise three peripherally-distributed radial ribs and an annular member, resulting in a substantially star-shaped flow cross-section. The path along which the valve-closing ball 17 moves, ending at the abutment 16a, is provided in the flow member.
As can be seen, the space which the mixture can enter in the water-jet tube, between its free end and the valve seat 18a, is very small. Consequently, the mixture is only slightly diluted. This substantially alleviates hygienic problems and the risk of affecting the taste of the mixture. This small space is reliably cleaned by the high speed of the water whenever a flow occurs through the jet tube. The pressure losses are extremely small since, when the valve is open, the prestress on the ball by the magnetic force is small in the direction towards the valve seat and just sufficient to move the valve-closing ball back in the direction towards the valve seat when the water supply is terminated. When the valve is closed, however, the closing force is quite strong, since in this position of the ball 17 the magnetic gap is small and the ball is therefore held in the closed position by a strong magnetic force. Owing to the very small prestress in the open position, the flow resistance also is low after initial opening of the valve. The flow resistance can be kept particularly low by profiling in the region of the flow cross-sections 16. Initially the valve can be reliably opened by impact of water, by suitably designing the water supply.
The arrangement is very simple and economic, and has a reliable self-cleaning effect along the entire length of the water-jet tube.
Due to the motion of the valve-closing ball 17 toward the valve seat, the arrangement also can be used as a drip barrier preventing dripping at the end of the dispensing operation.
The jet tube having a non-return valve can, of course, be used in other metering or dispensing systems and in injection devices constructed differently from that specifically illustrated in Fig. 1.
