Definitions

  • This invention concerns the automatic dispensers of products or goods with prepayment, and refers particularly to an automatic distributor of liquids, in particular milk, without however excluding the distribution of any other kind of drink.
  • a large capacity container or tank is in itself heavy and cumbersome and certainly cannot be moved by one person.
  • this container has to be re-filled on site, the milk having to be transported and poured in conditions that are not always easy to work in and not always very hygienic.
  • the container should be removed and replaced integrally. Therefore the availability of appropriate equipment to handle it is required.
  • the milk even if kept cooled, can deteriorate causing considerable and unnecessary waste.
  • the present milk distributors can also be equipped with a washing system for the container and delivery conduits, but this system is not automatic as it must be activated by an operator.
  • the object of this invention is however to remove the drawbacks and disadvantages of the noted technique of a means of distribution of liquids, in particular milk, really automatic and simple and handy to run and with safe hygienic conditions.
  • an automatic distributor of liquid products that is characterized fundamentally by the fact that it comprises at least one or, better, two, three or more individual, removable containers, of a limited capacity, transportable and replaceable manually, and at least one dispenser nozzle of the product in association with the product recycling means between successive delivery phases and a completely automatic washing system.
  • each container can be handled and transported manually by a person, who in this way is able to reach distributors even in places difficult to access with a vehicle as is often the case at present. Then once the content has been consumed, each container can be removed from the distributor and simply replaced on site with another full container. This can therefore be prepared directly in the company where the product is produced without the need for any additional pouring and, consequently, in compliance with the rules and hygiene that regulate the production and preservation of the product itself, in particular where the product is milk.
  • the dispenser nozzle of the product is automatically washed each time it is used.
  • the distributor proposed here comprises, on the one hand, more containers 11 for the liquid product to be delivered and, on the other hand, an output 12 with a dispenser nozzle 12' of the product.
  • Each container 11 may have, for example, a capacity in the order of 15-20 litres so that it can be lifted and transported manually. It can be provided internally with an agitator to slowly move the content.
  • Each container 11, then, is individually connected, by means of a pump 14, to the input of a delivery manifold 13 and the latter is connected in output to the dispenser nozzle 12' by means of a delivery conduit 15.
  • a recycling conduit 16 of the product towards a return manifold 17 having in turn some outputs connected individually to each container 11, each by means of a solenoid valve 18, is also connected to the dispenser nozzle 12'.
  • the dispenser nozzle 12' is configured, movable and controlled to adopt:
  • a washing conduit 19 is also connected to the dispenser nozzle 12' which is connected to a tank 20 containing a washing fluid which it discharges into a collection tank 21.
  • the distributor will be programmed to place each container 11 selectively in communication with the dispenser nozzle 12' and to enable the latter to deliver the product against payment, by means of a coin/token receiver, depending on the quantity of product to be delivered.
  • the distributor has an opening 22 in the delivery area where it is possible to insert a container 23, such as a bottle, to collect the product purchased.
  • the dispenser nozzle 12' With the distributor in stand-by, until that is there is no delivery in progress - Fig. 2 - the dispenser nozzle 12' remains in a retracted position and in connection with the recycling conduit 16. In this case, the product, that reaches the dispenser nozzle 12' from one of the containers 11, passes on to the recycle line 16 and returns to the same container.
  • the user To receive the product required, the user must insert the container 23 in the opening 22 - Fig. 3 , with the nozzle still remaining in the retracted position.
  • the dispenser nozzle 12' moves into the forward position so as to be disconnected from the recycle conduit 16 and deliver the product into said container - Fig. 4 .
  • the nozzle returns to the retracted position, restoring the recycle conduit and allowing the container 23 to be removed.
  • each container can be easily removed and replaced with another one by simply disconnecting the joints or connections of the conduits connecting the container to the delivery manifold and return 13, 17.
  • the dispenser nozzle 12' moves automatically into the forward delivery position.
  • the dispenser nozzle 12' retracts into a position that enables the recycle of a certain quantity of product of the same container so as to avoid deposits or collection in the conduits and likewise automatically starts the washing system using the devices that, although not represented, are suitable to maintain a physical separation between the product, both when recycling, delivering, and the washing fluid.
