Abstract
An automatic drink dispensing apparatus wherein drinks are poured to prescribed formulations following proper operation of 'selected' buttons on a keyboard console. The ingredients of the drink are simultaneously poured so that the length of pour is determined by the length of time that it takes to pour the major ingredient so as to produce extreme speed in dispensing drinks and thus raising the gross operation. Finally, solid state electronic means in the form of semi-conductor 'logic gates' are provided and arranged in a unique fashion to permit the apparatus to perform the above-noted improvements.
