| 20090127297 | Fluid dispensing apparatuses and methods thereof - A system for dispensing fluid for a food product includes a valve-less fluid block including one or more internal air passages defined within its interior with each air passage configured to operatively couple with an air source. The block includes one or more internal dispensing passages defined within the block interior. Each dispensing passage is configured to operatively couple with a flow channel. The flow channel is disposed external to the block and is configured to operatively couple with a fluid source. The dispensing passages are disposed and further configured in fluid communication with the air passages within the interior of the block and place the flow channels in fluid communication with the air passages. A port is defined in the block and is adapted to dispense fluid from the interior of the block. At least one sensor is operatively coupled with each flow channel. The sensor is configured to detect and to indicate the presence of at least one of air and fluid in the flow channel. The detection of air and/or fluid helps to ensure a location of a flow front of a fluid residing in the flow channel, and helps to ensure the presence of an air gap in the flow channel that serves as a check valve to prevent mixing of the fluid with other idle and unselected fluids the block is disposed to dispense and to prevent backflow of a dispensed fluid. At least one air passage is configured to deliver air to the block such that air entrains and carries a fluid dispensing from a dispensing passage to the port for dispensing from the block. The flow channel may be operatively coupled with a pump disposed and configured to draw a fluid from the fluid source. | 05-21-2009 |
