Automatic Fountain Serves Soft Drink

Automatically mixing and serving a carbonated drink, a new soda-fountain dispenser is said to blend its product more accurately than could be done by hand. Within five seconds it delivers a paper cup holding the drink as shown above. A built-in cooling unit and a small but efficient carbonator give the beverage the right amount of chill and “fizz.” Another model of the machine, operated by dropping a coin in the slot, mixes drinks for self-service patrons and has a capacity of 220 drinks before refilling.
