The invention relates to a holder assembly () for a powdered ingredient () for preparing an instant drink. The assembly comprises a holder, a conveyor screw (), an outflow channel () provided on the holder for dispensing ingredient (), a threshold plate () extending into the outflow channel (), and also a shut-off valve () for shutting off the outflow channel (). The shut-off valve () comprises a shut-off body () which can be moved back and forth in the longitudinal direction of the conveyor screw () between a release position and a shut-off position. In the release position the shut-off body () is located downstream of the threshold plate (), set apart therefrom. In the shut-off position the shut-off body () is located next to the threshold plate () in such a way that the shut-off body () and the threshold plate () together shut off the shut-off channel (). The invention further relates to a drink preparation means comprising a holder assembly () according to the invention.

The present invention relates to a preparing device () for preparing an aqueous beverage by means of a beverage ingredient. The preparing device () comprises: an outflow nozzle () for dispensing prepared beverage; a preparation chamber () for at least partially preparing the beverage; a supply () line ending in the preparation chamber for the supply of water to the preparation chamber; an ingredient-dispensing system () for delivering the beverage ingredient to the preparation chamber; and an outflow path () which extends from the preparation chamber to the outflow nozzle. The outflow nozzle () and/or the preparation chamber () and/or the outflow path () are entirely or partly made from a polymer mixture which comprises (a) a self-lubricating, hydrophobic polymer or copolymer having a moisture absorption, determined in accordance with ASTM D 570 at a relative humidity of 50% and a temperature of 23&#xb0; C., of less than 1% and (b) a homopolymer or a copolymer of a fluorinated ethylene.

Preparing device

The present invention relates to a mixing device for mixing a liquid, such as water, with an instant ingredient to form a beverage. The mixing device comprises a mixing chamber and a rotor which, during rotation about the axis of rotation, defines a surface of revolution extending along the circumference of the rotor. The rotor is arranged in the mixing chamber. The mixing chamber comprises a peripheral wall zone having a substantially circular cross section. The peripheral wall zone surrounds the surface of revolution. An outlet duct for discharging the mixture formed is connected to the mixing chamber. The inlet of the outlet duct is provided at the rotor. At least one rotor rib is provided at the peripheral wall zone. This rotor rib extends from the peripheral wall zone in the direction of the surface of revolution of the rotor. The invention furthermore relates to a beverage-making device comprising a mixing device according to the invention, as well as to the use of a mixing device according to the invention.

The invention relates to a mixing device for mixing a liquid, such as water, with an instant ingredient to form a beverage. The mixing device comprises a mixing chamber and a rotor. The mixing chamber comprises an inlet chamber, a rotor chamber and a pipe bend. The inlet opening of the pipe bend extends in the horizontal plane. The rotor is provided in the rotor chamber. The internal wall of the pipe bend has, on the side of the outer curve, a planar surface which is defined by a first direction and a second direction. The first direction extends in the horizontal direction and the second direction extends at right angles to the first direction, at an angle to the horizontal plane. The planar surface is situated perpendicularly below the inlet opening of the bend.
