20140339254 | METHOD FOR OPERATING A BEVERAGE PREPARATION MACHINE - A beverage preparation machine is electrically operated and has a control unit, at least one functional unit, and an electric circuit for supplying the functional unit and the control unit with current. The electric circuit has a switch for switching the current on or off, through respective first and second operations of an operating element. The switch has a first switch contact and a second switch contact, which are connected in parallel in the electric circuit. The first switch contact is brought into a closed state by the first operation of the operating element, and assumes an open state after the second operation. The control unit provides a control signal so that the second switch contact is closed after the first operation of the switch and opened after the second operation of the switch. | 11-20-2014 |

20100003022 | HEATING DEVICE FOR A BEVERAGE-MAKING MACHINE - A heating device for a beverage-making machine has at least one water pump for supplying water to a first continuous-flow heater for generating hot water and to a second continuous-flow heater for generating steam. The first continuous-flow heater is switched over, if required, to steam generation and be connected up to the second continuous-flow heater. The second continuous-flow heater can also be switched over, if required, to hot-water generation and to be connected up to the first continuous-flow heater. A control means which is provided for controlling the switchover operations and the connections between the continuous-flow heaters, and is configured depending upon entries input into an operating unit and relating to the previous operating state of the heating device. In comparison with conventional appliances, the configuration envisaged for the heating device also makes it possible to provide relatively large quantities of hot water or steam in a relatively short period of time. | 01-07-2010 |
