  • Patent number: 8205862
    Abstract: A device for mixing water and gas for drinking purposes including mixing of water and gas, in which a water supply and a gas supply end. The mixing includes a turbulence generator, having a housing containing a mixture of water and gas and a plunger with two frontal faces. The plunger and the housing can be moved relative to each other in an oscillating manner. A flow connection is provided between the two frontal faces of the plunger.

  • Publication number: 20120135119
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for brewing coffee in a coffee machine, particularly an automatic or fully automated espresso machine, wherein coffee beans are ground to coffee powder of a predefined quantity of coffee powder and/or a predefined grinding degree by a grinding device of the coffee machine, during a press process, the coffee powder is pressed in a brewing chamber of the coffee machine at a predefined press force, during the brewing process, a predefined quantity of water, heated to a predefined brewing temperature is passed through the coffee powder and an actual brewing time is determined, the actual brewing time is compared to a saved target brewing time, the actual brewing time is adapted to the target brewing time by increasing/reducing the press force during the brewing process or before every new coffee brewing. Thus, the brewing time can be controlled by the press force.

  • Publication number: 20040070141
    Abstract: A device stacks sheet-shaped materials (1, 1′) on a sheet stack with at least one deflecting element (82, 82′), mounted above the sheet stack and in the area of the leading edges (6, 6′) of the stacked sheet-shaped materials (1, 1′) so that it can rotate, and exhibiting at least one deflecting fin (83, 83′), whereby deflecting element (82, 82′) is driven and mounted so that it can rotate, whereby one deflecting fin (83, 83′) is in contact with the topmost sheet-shaped material (1) of the sheet stack that has already been stacked so that the leading edge (6′) of the next sheet-shaped material (1) to be stacked is deflected until the deflecting element (82, 82′), after stacking this next sheet-shaped material (1′), rotates far enough that a deflecting fin (83, 83′) is in contact with this sheet-shaped material (1′) that is now lying topmost.
