SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DOSING AND DISPENSING FLUID OR PASTY SUBSTANCES, ESPECIALLY FLUID OR PASTY FOODS

摘要

The invention relates to a system and to a method for dosing and dispensing fluid or pasty substances, especially fluid or pasty foods. The aim of the invention is to facilitate dispensing a small number of portions, for example only one or two portions of a fluid or pasty substance in an exactly dosable and at the same time economically advantageous manner. To this end, the invention provides a system that comprises containers (12; 14; 16; 18) for storing the fluid or pasty substances to be dosed, and a dosing and dispensing device (21). The containers can be coupled with the dosing and dispensing device which is provided with means ( 32, 34; 36; 38) for expelling a fluid or pasty substance from one of the containers that is coupled to the dosing and dispensing device. The containers are suitable for transporting and for storing the fluid or pasty substances between two dispensing processes. Voluminous pipe systems whose volume exceeds the volume of a conventional portion size by far are no longer required.
