Abstract: Apparatus for preparing and dispensing a diluted beverage has a mains water inlet, a valve for opening or shutting water flow, a food concentrate container, an outlet for the beverage, a user interface for commanding dispensing of the beverage, and a volumetric pump communicating with the valve outlet and the beverage outlet for drawing and mixing the food concentrate and water. A first conduit is connected to an outlet of the food concentrate container and the volumetric pump inlet. A second conduit communicating with the valve outlet and an intermediate portion of the first conduit. A control unit activates the valve and the volumetric pump. The second conduit has a section narrowing for regulating the outflow velocity of the water entering the first conduit. The control unit activates the volumetric pump to regulate the flow of food concentrate mixture and water in response to data from a water flow detector.

Abstract: Automatic dispenser for preparing and dispensing a liquid food mixture includes a food concentrate tank, a pipeline with a first conduit having a food liquid inlet and a first food liquid outlet, a second conduct having a food concentrate inlet in fluid communication with the food concentrate tank, and a food concentrate outlet. A flow rate stabilizer is arranged along the first conduit. A self-priming mixing pump has an inlet in fluid communication with the first food liquid outlet of the first conduit and with the food concentrate outlet of the second conduct (5). The dispenser has a liquid food mixture outlet. The self-priming mixing pump is configured to suction the food concentrate from the food concentrate tank, creating a depression inside the self-priming mixing pump so as to mix therein the food concentrate and the food liquid, obtaining a liquid food mixture. The liquid food mixture has a pressurized outflow from the liquid food mixture outlet.
