FROTHING DEVICE FOR A BEVERAGE MACHINE

摘要

A frothing device (1) is disclosed which is suited for a beverage machine. The frothing unit has an inlet (11) for a frothing medium (12) and a gas inlet (13) with an opening diameter. Furthermore, the frothing unit comprises a pumping means (14) and a tubing (15) for connecting the aforementioned components to one another. The aforementioned components form a continuous tubing system. In addition, due to the pumping action of the pumping means, a negative pressure difference with respect to the atmospheric pressure is accomplished throughout the whole tubing system.
