The present invention is a beverage dispenser having a low overall vertical height profile. The dispenser includes a water bath tank. The tank volume is enclosed along a top surface thereof by a support plate. A condenser extends horizontally with and adjacent to a top surface of the support plate. A motor is secured to the top plate and includes a shaft with a blade on one end thereof for agitating the water held within the water bath, and includes a condenser cooling fan on the opposite end of the shaft thereof for cooling the condenser. An evaporator is located in the tank horizontally with and closely adjacent to the tank bottom surface. An elongate carbonator extends lengthwise in a substantially horizontal manner in the tank and is located therein between the support plate and the evaporator. In one embodiment, the level of water within the carbonator is regulated by the buoyancy level of the carbonator in the tank.

Low height beverage dispensing apparatus

An apparatus for providing carbonating of water. The apparatus including a carbonating tank having a carbon dioxide inlet, a water inlet, and a carbonated water outlet. The carbonating tank is pivotally mounted to a rigid structure and connected to an electric motor for providing an undulating or rocking motion of the carbonator about its pivot mounting. The motion of the carbonating tank providing for carbonating of the water held therein.

Low cost beverage carbonating apparatus and method

A rotary type oven for articles of food having a broiling zone with a radiant electrical heater, a baking zone and a toasting zone having a convective electrical heater; the oven is of the helical track type with the zones being one above another.

Food oven

A method of heating a food article of the layered type having a crust and a topping of a higher specific heat than the crust, an example of which is a pizza, has the steps of placing the food while in a refrigerated state into an oven, then broiling the topping, then baking the crust and the topping, and lastly toasting the crust; also disclosed is a rotary type oven having a broiling zone with a radiant electrical heater, a baking zone, and a toasting zone having a convective hot air electrical heater; the oven may be of the helical track type with the zones being one above another.

Method of heating a food article

A rotary food oven includes a heatable oven chamber, an annular trackway of helical form inside of the chamber and a rotatable reel for advancing food packages around the trackway, the trackway is formed of a disc of sheet metal having perforations for radiant and convective passage of heat and is of a simplified construction, the reel has drive rods rotatable about a circular path and about their own axis for imparting epicyclic movement of circular food packages around the trackway, and the reel and trackway are removable from the oven chamber for cleaning and service.
