Description of the invention (>) It is not important for the way in which the dosing device is arranged in the unit. In addition, one of the disadvantages of the conventional dosing device is that its action depends on the viscosity of the concentrate. Another disadvantage is that the metering device is quite expensive. [Summary of the invention] Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide an improved dosing device. To achieve this, a metering device according to one aspect of the invention is characterized in that the pump system comprises a gear pump. Since the dosing device includes a gear pump located in the liquid flow path, it is no longer necessary to use a pulse rail device as in the conventional device. Since a pulsation device can be omitted, the configuration of the dosing device in a dosing machine is no longer important. Another advantage of the invention resides in the diluted form of the concentrate. The so-called zebra effect will no longer occur as the pulsating dosing mode disappears. In addition, due to the use of the gear pump, the structure of the metering device is economical. Another advantage of the metering device according to the present invention is that the metering method can be set to continuous. In particular, the dosing device is driven by a drive shaft which has an axial axis extending in the direction from the inlet to the outlet. In addition, the overall size of the metering device can be made small. Moreover, such a structural system is very easy to make. According to another aspect of the present invention, the dosing device is characterized in that the dosing device includes a rotor rotatably connected to the body to rotate about a * rotation axis to cause Can be changed by a * 5 (please read the notes on the back before filling this page) ^ · 1111111 Printed by the Intellectual Property Bureau Employees Consumer Cooperatives of the Ministry of Economic Affairs The paper size is applicable to China National Standard (CNS) A4 (210 X 297 (Mm) 531636 A7 B7 V. Description of the invention ($) (Please read the precautions on the back before filling this page) The rotating magnetic field rotates the rotor around the axis of rotation, and the rotor is mechanically connected to the spring 'In order to drive the gear pump by the rotating rotor. Since the dosing device includes a rotor, it is no longer necessary to use a pulsating device such as in the conventional device. Since a pulsation device can be omitted, the configuration of the dosing device in a dosing machine is no longer important. Another advantage of the present invention resides in the diluted form of the concentrate. The so-called A zebra effect will not occur as the pulsating dosing pattern disappears. In addition, by the action of the rotor, the metering device has a light and efficient structure. In addition, the overall size of the metering device can be made small. Advantageously, the rotor train can be coupled to the drive shaft. This structure is very reliable and inexpensive. Printed by the Consumer Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs Another advantage is that the rotor can be located in the liquid flow path, so that this configuration can better obtain the function of the agitator. In particular, if the drive shaft is arranged in a direction from the entrance to the exit, this structure becomes simple and effective. Since a dynamic fluid seal for the drive shaft can be omitted, there is only very little energy loss, and the chance of leaks and contamination becomes minimal. Another advantage of the present invention is that after use, the concentrate system remaining in the metering device is tightly sealed and isolated from the outside world. By arranging the drive shaft in a specific direction, the advantage is that the metering device can be set in a metering machine that rotates independently, so the position of the rotor is no longer important. If the metering device is connected to 6 paper sizes, it is applicable to the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210 X 297 mm). Printed by the Consumer Cooperatives of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs. In a container full of concentrates, this connection can also work in the same way with independent rotation. According to the preferred embodiment, the dosing device includes a housing that is generally rotationally symmetric, wherein an axial axis extends along the inlet-to-outlet direction. In particular, the metering device is provided with a valve located in the liquid flow path downstream of the gear pump, and when the pressure of the liquid upstream of the valve exceeds a predetermined upper limit, the valve is opened. The advantage of using a gear pump combined with a pressure relief valve is that no leakage will occur due to internal effects without driving. In addition, the valve is provided with an anti-microbial seal, which is important for edible condiments. The container according to the invention is characterized in that the container is filled with a concentrate which is in a dilute state and suitable for consumption, and the container is equipped with a metering device according to the invention previously described. Since the dosing device according to the present invention (viewed from the axial direction) can be made into a lower design, it needs a shorter length (also viewed in this direction) than the conventional linear magnet for driving. . This situation makes it possible to make the dosing device extensible instead of foldable, so that the tear strip in the container is designed to be elongated if it is designed as a so-called bag-in-box. The movie can be omitted. One advantage of this approach is that the operation accompanying the bag in the box can be simplified. Thus, in particular, the container may be provided with a bag and a housing, the bag being made of a flexible sheet material and used to contain the concentrate, and the housing is used to contain the bag. 7 ----------- Cloths -------- Order --------- (Please read the notes on the back before filling this page) This paper size is applicable to China Standard (CNS) A4 (210 X 297 mm) Printed by the Consumer Cooperatives of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs 531636 A7 __ B7 V.

Invention Description (7 ) So as to drive the rotor 22 in a contactless manner by at least one changing magnetic field. In particular, in this embodiment, the rotor 22 includes a plurality of arms 24 extending along the radial direction of the rotation axis (the driving shaft 16). More specifically, the arm has only two arms and is arranged in line with each other to form a beam-like body. An end portion of the arm portion forms a magnetic pole of the permanent magnet. The magnetic pole of the permanent magnet will follow the operation mode of the magnetic field change. This result is that the rotor 22 and the driving shaft 16 will start to rotate. So far, the operation of the dosing device 1 described above is as follows. Suppose that 'the inlet 2 of the dosing device 1 is connected to a container 2 6' The container 2 6 is shown schematically in Figs. 1 and 6, and the container 2 6 is filled with a container such as coffee, for example. Concentrate. As best shown in FIG. 6, the container 2 6 series is adapted to the dosing device 1 according to FIG. 1. In this embodiment, the container 2 6 series contains a bag 2 8 (as indicated by the dotted line). Display) and a casing 30, wherein the bag 28 is made of a flexible sheet material and contains the concentrate, and the casing 30 is used to accommodate the bag 28. Preferably, the shell 30 is rigid in design and is therefore harder than the bag 28. The inlet 2 of the dosing device 1 is in fluid communication with the interior of the bag 2 8. By a magnetic field change generated in a predetermined manner, the rotor 22 will start to rotate in a predetermined form. As a result, the gear pump 8 will also start to rotate in the same way, so that the concentrate can flow through the inflow opening 12 and the gap between the meshing teeth of the gears 1 4 a and 1 4 b. The outflow opening 20 ° therefore 'the capacity of the concentrate prepared in a metered manner will be related to the rotation angle of the rotor 22'. This relationship is roughly linear. 12 (Please read the precautions on the reverse side before filling out this page) £ Order --------- This paper size applies to China National Standard (CNS) A4 X 297 mm 531636 A7 ________B7_____ V.

Invention description (//) Generated. The rotor 22 is going to change its orientation in this changing magnetic field, so that a rotation effect is caused. The rotor 22 can also be driven by a conventional method, such as an eddy current motor. When the motor rotates, a flyback pulse is generated in the coil 52 of the uncharged magnetizing device. These flyback pulses can be used in a magnetizing device and determine the rotational position of the rotor in a conventional manner. Based on this rotational position, a conventional (feedback) control structure can be used. The coil 52 can also be replaced with a permanent magnet, which can be mechanically rotated to generate a changing magnetic field. In addition, a valve 54 may be provided in the outflow opening 20. When the pressure of the liquid upstream of the valve 54 exceeds a predetermined upper limit 値, the valve 54 will be opened. This system includes a so-called non-return valve. The non-return valve system includes a shut-off assembly 56 with a spring 58. The spring 58 system is shown in this embodiment. In this example, the cases 6a and 6b are made of a suitable plastic material. The gears 1 4 a and 1 4 b and the drive shaft 16 are also made of plastic. Therefore, the only metal part is the rotor 2 2. The rotor 22 may also be included downstream of the liquid flow path of the gear pump. Moreover, in addition to being driven by the rotor 22, the gear pump 8 can also be driven in different ways. Therefore, the gear pump 8 can also be driven by mechanical means such as a motor. The motor train can then be part of the device 31. The valve 54 can also be designed as a so-called stepping valve.
