Definitions

  • this device is not at all suitable for use for example on a coffee counter, because of its size, its price and its complexity.
  • the object of the invention is therefore to propose such an ice dispenser.
  • the subject of the invention is an automatic ice dispenser, characterized in that it comprises a hollow column for supporting a container suitable for receiving ice cubes and open in its upper part, a lid disposed on the container and comprising a bent ice ejection conduit, one end of which faces the support column, and ice ejection means, arranged in the column and adapted to project at least one ice cube into the ejection conduit.
  • the ejection means comprise an ejection piston slidably mounted in the column between a low position in which the piston is retracted in the column and a high position in which it projects into the container.
  • Means 7 for ejecting the ice cubes are arranged in the support column 2 and are suitable for project at least one ice cube into the ejection duct 6.
  • these ejection means 7 can be constituted by an ejection piston 8 slidingly mounted in the column between a low position illustrated in solid lines in this figure, in which the piston 8 is retracted inside the column 2 and a position high, illustrated in broken lines in which this piston protrudes into the container 3.
  • This displacement of the piston between its two positions is achieved for example by means of a rod 9 projecting laterally from the piston out of the column of support 2 and movable for example by the intermediary of a user, along a path delimited by a lumen 10 formed in the column 2.
  • a sudden displacement of this piston by the user ensures the ejection of an ice cube in the conduit.
  • the base 1 on which the column 2 is fixed may include a first portion 11 forming a water recovery drawer connected to the container 3 via the column 2 and in which the water from the melting of the ice flows .
  • the other end of the bent duct 6 is provided with means 14 for braking the ice cubes, these means being constituted by any means known per se, such as brushes.
  • a lumen 24 closed by the pivoting door 20 in the rest position Against by the front wall of the container comprises a lumen 24 closed by the pivoting door 20 in the rest position.
  • the dimensions of this light are such that it lets through an ice cube and that its lower part is opposite the upper part of the piston 8.
  • a ramp 26 inclined downward and projecting outside the container 3 is disposed on the lower part of said lumen.
  • the piston 8 has a slightly bevelled end with the low point oriented towards the front wall.
  • the ice cube is braked in its fall by the door 20, as for the projecting rod 9, it is manipulated directly using the edge of the glass. This also allows the user to use an ice cube with one hand, the one holding the glass.
  • actuation means can be constituted by means other than an actuation rod. Indeed, these means can also be constituted by electrical actuation means such as for example an electromagnet comprising a coil arranged around the column 2 and the supply of which is controlled by the user to move the piston which then makes electromagnet plunger core.
  • electrical actuation means such as for example an electromagnet comprising a coil arranged around the column 2 and the supply of which is controlled by the user to move the piston which then makes electromagnet plunger core.
