A flow-control valve especially for gasified liquids, for dispensing portions of carbonated water from a storage container for mixing with beverage concentrates in a beverage-vending machine comprises a valve housing, the interior of which broadens from an inlet opening to a chamber in which a membrane with an orifice is arranged orthogonally to the direction of the inflowing water. Water flowing into the chamber passes through the orifice in the membrane and displaces the latter toward a pin which is arranged on the opposite side of the membrane to the inlet opening adjacent to the orifice.

Flow-control valve especially for gasified liquids

For enhanced cooling power in a beverage vending machine the compressor is arranged in a recess of the apparatus housing, and the condenser in the form of a coil-shaped tube, is arranged in a convection shaft connected to the recess. One wall of the shaft is formed by the rear wall of the housing. Inside the shaft the tube coil of the condenser is disposed diagonally upwards in the direction of the rear wall of the apparatus housing.
