Abstract
A static mixing nozzle for use with a dispenser system to thoroughly mix one or more liquids. The static mixing nozzle has a passage with a plurality of baffles arranged in a staggered and alternating pattern throughout the passage. A liquid passing through the static mixing nozzle will strike the plurality of baffles, causing turbulence which mixes the liquid. The baffles prevent laminar flow through the passage. Static mixing nozzles with different numbers of baffles may be used in the dispenser system to accommodate the different types of concentrates and syrups which may be used. The static mixing nozzle may be formed as part of the nozzle or as an insert for the nozzle. The insert is removable and may be formed in parts which can be easily separated and cleaned. The static mixing nozzle does not require any mechanical mixing and operates under standard operating pressures for dispenser systems.
