BEVERAGE MACHINE WITH RELIABLE USER-INDICATOR

摘要

A beverage machine comprises: -a processing unit (60) that has a flavouring module (10) for mixing liquid with a flavouring ingredient to form a flavoured beverage, and that has a liquid drive arrangement (65) for in-taking liquid from a source (200) of liquid and driving said liquid to the flavouring module, and that has an outlet (12) for guiding a flavoured beverage from the flavouring module to a beverage dispensing area (12'); and -a user-interface that is connected to the processing unit and that has an indicator for indicating a status of the processing unit. The indicator (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7) is displaceable, in particular relatively to the processing unit, in a manner visible from outside such machine by a mechanical, magnetic and/or thermal actuation thereof by the processing unit changing status.
