Description
Technical Field
The present utility model relates to the field of engineering, and more particularly to a material dispensing system for vending machine beverage preparation that dispenses from multiple containers into multiple cups simultaneously.
Background
With reference to thai patent application No. 1701002991, the air-powered steam pressurized coffee machine has only one source container unit, and therefore uses one drive gear and motor unit. This solution has the drawback of having only one ingredient in the cup, so that the beverage sold is not versatile.
Later, vending machines, particularly vending machines for freshly brewed coffee with a plurality of containers, were developed, which were structurally characterized by a plurality of raw material containers with matched drive gears and motors, i.e. if there were five raw material containers, five drive gear and motor units would be required. This results in a high production cost and requires a large space in the vending machine.
Accordingly, in order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present utility model proposes a material dispensing system for simultaneously filling a plurality of cups from a plurality of containers for beverage preparation of a vending machine, which allows to dispense a continuous command for brewing a beverage without having to wait for the completion of the previous command, and which allows to brew a plurality of commands at a time. This is achieved by giving instructions to the machine to brew the beverage at set time intervals.
