  • Patent number: 11304556
    Abstract: A beverage preparation machine includes a frame equipped with a cup holder, a coffee dispensing nozzle including an outlet orifice and a rotating stirring device including a tool rotating about an axis and intended to cooperate with a preparation contained in a container resting on the cup holder, the rotating stirring device including a conduit for conveying hot water and/or steam toward the rotating tool. The rotating stirring device is mobile in vertical translation parallel to the axis between a top standby position, in which the rotating tool is situated above the container, and a bottom working position, in which the rotating tool is situated in the container. The outlet orifice is separated from the rotating stirring device and arranged at a constant distance from the axis so that the outlet orifice and the rotating tool are arranged above an upper opening of the container arranged on the cup holder.

  • Patent number: 10362895
    Abstract: Provided is a milk-based drink production device designed to work with a steam output nozzle tip of a coffee maker, where the device contains a steam input conduit. The device contains a connection system to the steam output nozzle tip which includes at least one mobile jaw that shifts between a connected position, in which a watertight connection is formed between the steam output nozzle tip and the steam input conduit and in which the device cannot be separated from the steam output nozzle tip, and a disconnected position in which the device may be separated from the steam output nozzle tip.

  • Patent number: 10178926
    Abstract: Provided is a milk-based drink production device with a connection system designed to work with a steam output nozzle tip of a coffee maker, where said connection system has a connected position, in which a watertight connection is formed between the steam output nozzle tip and the device, and a disconnected position, in which the device may be separated from the steam output nozzle tip, and the device contains a frothing system which shifts between an installed position on the device and a position removed from the device. The device contains extraction safety mechanisms which prevent the frothing system from moving from the installed position to the removed position when the connection system is in the connected position and/or connection safety mechanisms which prevent the connection system from moving from the disconnected position to the connected position when the frothing system is not in the installed position.
