Abstract
A beverage dispensing machine designed for aircraft use has compact dimensions, is low-weight and satisfies the safety requirements and standards applicable in that sector. The beverage dispensing machine can dispense both large quantities of a beverage, such as 1.6 liters of American coffee or tea, inside a jug positioned inside an appropriate seat, and smaller quantities of hot water (typically 150 ml), which can be used to prepare beverages, via a nozzle situated on the outside thereof. In one embodiment, the beverage dispensing machine includes a bottom jug retention system having a locking lever hinged on spiral seats to keep the jug stationary during the dispensing of the beverage.
