ABSTRACT:
A beverage dispensing unit for dispensing syrup from a syrup container and mixing the syrup with diluted water and carbonated water is disclosed. The unit includes a body having a syrup flow path, a gas supply path, and a receiving portion for the syrup container. The interior of the syrup container is linked to the gas supply path which supplies carbon dioxide into the interior of the syrup container so as to drive the syrup out of the syrup container and into the syrup flow path. The syrup container is disposed in the receiving portion which includes a first and second hole such that the first hole is linked to the gas supply path and the second hole is linked to the syrup path. A projecting portion is integrally formed with the receiving portion and includes a separating wall which separates the first and second holes so as to prevent the carbon dioxide from flowing directly from the first hole to the second hole. Therefore, a constant rate of syrup is dispensed from the syrup container, independently of the volume of syrup remaining within the syrup container.
