Description

Dec. 29, 1959 H. P. BRIGGS PROPORTIONING DRINK-DISPENSER Fild New. 19, 1956 /5 46 f7 LIQUOR hvI F J m Y R N U H HTTOE/YE K PROPORTIONING DRINKPDISPENSER Huntly P. Briggs, Sun Valley, Calif., assignor to General Controls Co., Glendale, Calif., a corporation of California Application November 19, 1956, Serial No. 622,923 1 Claim. (Cl. 222-76) This invention relates to liquid dispensing systems, a main object of the invention being to provide a system for automatically dispending drinks of the highball type, each having a preselected alcoholic content.
Another object of the invention is to provide a system of the character described in the, preceding object whereby the total quantity of liquid delivered to a receptacle is always the same regardless of its alcoholic content; this object being accomplished by the provision of quantity-selecting means arranged so that as the quantity of either of the components of the drink is increased the quantity of the other component is, proportionately decreased.
Another object is to provide individual valves for dispensing the liquid components of a highball, and adjustable time-controlled means for opening each of the valves for a period corresponding to the selected quantity of liquid to be dispensed through the, valve.
Further objects and advantages of the invention will become apparent from the following description and accompanying drawing, and from the appended claim.
In the drawing:
Figure 1 is a diagrammatic view of a liquid dispensing system embodying this invention; and.
Figure 2 is a diagram showing means for proportionately adjusting the settings of the electric timers shown in Fig. 1.
In the upper part of Fig. 1, and generally indicated by the numerals 11 and 12, are two-identical electromagnetic relays each adapted when energized bypassage of current through its respective coil 13. or 14. to effect, in conventional manner, closing of three pairs. of normally-open switch contacts indicated in relay 11 by the numerals 15, 16 and 17 and in relay: 12, by numeralslS, 1 9 and 20.
The coil 13 of relay 11, is connected, by wires 21 and 22, in series with a normally-open momentarily-operable push-button switch 23, to a source of electrical energy indicated by the sine-curve symbol. This symbol appears at numerous places in the drawing and designates a common source (preferably) of low-voltage alternating current. One of the pair of switch. contacts 15- is connected by a wire 24 directly to the source-wire 21, the other of contacts 15 being connected by a wire 25, in which a normally-closed switch 26 is inserted, to the upper terminal of coil 13. Since the lower terminal of this coil is connected to the other source-wire 22, when the relay is energized by closing of push-button switch 23 and contacts 15 consequently close, energization of the relay is maintained through these contacts (and normally-closed switch 26) so that the relay is held-in electrically and will drop-out only when switch 26 is opened.
The coil 14 of relay 12 is connected in similar manner to the electric source by wires 27, 28 and a push-button switch 29; one of the holding contacts 18 of this relay being connected to the source by a wire 30, and the other to the upper terminal of the coil by a wire 31 in which is inserted another normally-closed switch 32 the opennited States Patent ing of which efiects drop-out of this relay after it has held-in in response to momentary actuation of the pushbutton switch 29.
The switch contacts 17 of relay 11 and 20 of relay 12 are connected, in parallel with each other, by wires 33 and 34 respectively to an electric motor 35 in series with the electric source indicated by the symbol, so that this motor is energized in response to energization of either of the relays. Driven by motor 35 in the direction of the arrow, at slow speed as through internal gearing, is an arm 36 engageable with a T-bracket 37 to which the movable elements of switches 26 and 32 are secured.
Movement of bracket 37 (to the right) by the motorarm 36 effects opening of switches 26 and 32 and thereby interruption of the hold-in circuits of the associated relays 11 and 12 so that the one of the relays through which energization of the motor was initiated drops-out and thereby effects deenergization of the motor. In other words: after momentary actuation of push- button switch 23 or 29 the associated relay 11 or 12 remains held-in only during the period that the motor-arm 36 then moves from a set position into engagement with the bracket 37. As will be explained hereinafter, it is intended that only one of the switches 23 or 29 be actuated at a time.
In Fig. 1 below the relay and motor system just described is another such system; the only diiference between these systems being that in the lower system there is an additional relay cooperable with the motor. The three relays 41, 42 and 43 in the lower system are in dividually controllable by push- button switches 44, 45 and 46 and have sets of switch contacts 47-49, 5tl-52 and 53-55 respectively. The hold-in contacts 47, 5t) and 53 of the relays are connected to the coils of the relays through normally-closed switches 56, 57 and 58 respectively, and the relay contacts 49, 52 and 55 are connected, in parallel with each other, in the energizing circuit of an electric motor 59 which drives (in the direction of the arrow), an, arm 60 engageable with a T- bracket 61 to which the movable elements of switches 5658 are secured. The operation of this three-relay system is identical with that of the two-relay system described above: upon actuation of any one of the pushbutton switches 44-46 the associated relay pulls-in (so that motor 59 is then energized) and subsequently dropsout when the switches 5658 are opened by the motor.
In the lower part of, Fig. 1 is a liquid delivering system which comprises five normally-closed solenoid valves 7175 energization of which is controlled by the middle pair of contacts 16, 19, 48, 51 and 54- of relays 11, 12, 41, 42 and. 43 respectively. The terminals of these contacts and the energizing circuits of the solenoid valves are indicated respectively by the letters A, B, C, D and E to avoid the showing of pairs of wires interconnecting these points. When any of the five relays pullsin, the valve associated with the middle pair of contacts of that relay is energized and operated to open position.
Each of the solenoid valves is inserted in a pipe leading to a bottle from which liquid can flow by gravity, when the. valve-is opened, to a receptacle or drinking glass 76 over which the lower ends of all of the pipes are positioned. The pipes and bottles associated with valves 7175 are indicated respectively by numerals 7881 and 8286. Between each of the bottles and pipes is a device 87 which facilitates replacement of the bottle when empty and permits air to enter the bottle as the liquid is dispensed. As is indicated by the legends, the bottles 82 and 83 contain different liquors, such as bourbon and scotch whiskies, while the bottles 34, 85 and 86 contain liquids suitable for mixing with the liquor, such as water, seltzer water and ginger ale.
The diagram of Fig. 2 rangement for proportionately adjusting the time-settings of the means for effecting drop-out of the relays. This, arrangement comprises a rod 88 having bent-up ends 89 and 90 engageable with the motor- arms 36 and 60 to determine the position of these arms prior to energization of the motors. The arms 36 and 60 may, for example, be connected to the respective motors through magnetic clutches 91 and 92 arranged so that they are energized concurrently with the motors and then afford a positive driving connection between the motor and the arm. When the magnetic clutches are deenergized (upondropout of the controlling relays) the arms 36 and 60 are disengaged from the motors and free to move under the force of their respective bias springs 93 and 94 to their stopped positions in engagement with the bent ends 89 and 90 of the adjusting rod .88. This rod is mounted for manual lengthwise movementin guides 95 which are arranged to frictionally grip the rod so that its position is not altered by the impact of arms 36, 60 when they are suddenly disengaged from the motors.
It is to be borne in mind that the rod 88 remains stationary during the drink-dispensing operation, and that its main function is to provide the simultaneously 'adjustable stops 89, 90 relative to which the arms 36, 60 move when their respective motors are energized.
As can be seen in Fig. 2, the tips of the motor-arms discloses an illustrative arbe provided for each of the possible combinations of 36, 60 cooperate with scales, graduated in seconds, and indicate the approximate periods that will elapse before i the motors (and magnetic clutches 91, 92) are deenergized in response to actuation of the respective relayrelease switches 26, 32 and 57, 58, 59 by the motorarms.
is energized by momentary actuation of the push-button switch 23, this relay will pull-in and remain held-in for one second (as indicated in Fig. 2 by the setting of arm In the operation of the system if, for example, relay 11 w v 36) during which period the valve 71, energized through contacts 16 of the relay, will be open so that a predetermined quantity of liquor will be delivered to receptacle 76 from bottle 83. In like manner, if the push-button switch 45 is actuated the valve 74 will open and remain open for the three-second period indicated by the setting of arm 60, and a corresponding quantity of liquid from When i i will be delivered to form the drink; these proportions I being indicated in Fig. 2 by a double-ended pointer 96 carried by rod 88. As was mentioned above, means may be provided for preventing the dispensing of more than one kind of liquor or mix at a time. Such means may consist of a mechanical interlock for each of the 1 groups of push-buttons, or electrical means for preventing concurrent energization of more than one relay of a group. Push-buttons associated respectively with the liquor and the mix may be pressed at the same time or in sequence. If desired, individual push-buttons may drinks (such as 'Scotch and Soda or Bourbon and Water) and arranged to effect simultaneous energization of the corresponding relays.
The proportioning means is shown set for dispensing a drink of the usual (1:3) strength or alcoholic content. If a somewhat weaker o'r stronger drink is desired the rod 88 is moved accordingly to the right or the left so that the quantitiesof the liquor and mix delivered will be in the proportions of, say, /2 23% for a weaker drink, or 1 /2 :2 /2 for a stronger one. It will be observed that the total quantity of liquid delivered to the receptacle is the same at all settings of the proportioningmeans.
A stop, indicated at 97, may be provided on bar 88 for preventing accidental dispensing'of a drink stronger than in the proportion of 2:2; optionally, means may be provided for sounding a warning if the proportioning means is moved beyond that .position. If straight liquor is desired, only the push-button associated with the liquor is pressed. If no liquor is desired, the indicator is moved to the 0:4 position so that only seltzer water or the like can be dispensed. I
The invention as described above and shown diagrammatically is obviously susceptible of modification without departing from the spirit of the invention, and I intend therefore that no limitations be placed on the invention except as defined by the scope of the appended claim.
I claim as my invention:
In a system for delivering optionally beverages of different proportions of two ingredient liquids, so as to maintain the total amount of liquid substantially the same independently of the proportions: a first valve for delivering one of the ingredients; a second valve for delivering the second of said ingredients; a pair of electrical circuit means respectively for controlling the opening of the valves; a pair of circuit controllers respectively located in said circuit means, and adapted to'be so operated as to terminate the periods during which said valves are open; a pair of movable operators respectively for the circuit controllers; a pair of electric motors respectively for moving the operators toward valve-closing positions; a common means for simultaneously determining the starting positions of said operators to predetermine the ratio of the ingredients; and means responsive to the opening of the valves for energizing the motors and to couple them to the operators; the adjustment of the starting positions being such that as the time for moving one operator to valve-closing position is increased, the time for moving the other operator to its valve-closing position is correspondingly decreased.
