A valve assembly for dispensing a confectionary product has an inlet (70), a first outlet (72), and a second outlet (90). The assembly has a valve member (80) shiftable between: a first condition providing communication between the inlet and the first outlet; and a second condition providing communi

대표청구항 ▼

1. A confectionary product dispensing system comprising: a cabinet (22) having a front (24);a source (42, 50, 52) of the confectionary product within the cabinet; anda valve assembly mounted on the front and comprising: an inlet (70) coupled to the source;a first outlet (72);a second outlet (90);a valve element (80) shiftable between: a first condition providing communication between the inlet and the first outlet; anda second condition providing communication between the inlet and the second outlet; andan actuator (74) coupled to the valve element and manually engagable by a user to shift the valve element between the first condition and the second condition, wherein: the actuator comprises a lever (74), the lever being shiftable from a neutral condition to respective first and second lever conditions to, respectively, shift the valve element to the valve element's first and second conditions; andthe assembly further comprises a user-engagable locking member (133) shiftable between respective first and second conditions, the locking member first and second conditions respectively blocking movement of the lever to the lever second and first conditions. 2. The system of claim 1 wherein: in the first condition, the valve element blocks communication between the inlet and the second outlet;in the second condition, the valve element blocks communication between the inlet and the first outlet; andthe valve element has a third condition blocking communication between the inlet and both the first outlet and second outlet. 3. The system of claim 1 wherein: the locking member (133) is laterally shiftable between the respective first and second conditions. 4. The system of claim 3 wherein: the locking member bears respective first and second indicia (136, 160) indicating the first and second locking member conditions. 5. The system of claim 1 wherein: the second outlet is at the end of a non-metallic sting (92; 304). 6. The system of claim 5 wherein: the non-metallic sting comprises a straw (304) having an off-radial cut and forming a lance. 7. The system of claim 5 wherein: the non-metallic sting comprises a straw (304) having a proximal portion stretched over a nipple (300) protruding from a body of the valve assembly. 8. The system of claim 7 wherein one-to-all of: the straw is an extrusion;the straw has a distal end cut at an at least 30° off-radial angle; andthe straw has a proximal end cut at a less than 30° off-radial angle. 9. The system of claim 5 wherein: the non-metallic sting comprises a plastic straw. 10. The system of claim 1 wherein: the locking member first condition permits movement of the lever between the neutral condition and the lever first condition; andthe locking member second condition permits movement of the lever between the neutral condition and the lever second condition. 11. A valve assembly (38) for dispensing a confectionary product, the valve assembly comprising: an inlet (70);a first outlet (72);a second outlet (90);a valve element (80) shiftable between: a first condition providing communication between the inlet and the first outlet; anda second condition providing communication between the inlet and the second outlet; andan actuator (74) coupled to the valve element and manually engagable by a user to shift the valve element between the first condition and the second condition, wherein: the actuator comprises a lever (74), the lever being shiftable from a neutral condition to respective first and second lever conditions to, respectively, shift the valve element to the valve element's first and second conditions;the assembly further comprises a user engagable locking member (133) shiftable between respective first and second conditions, the locking member first and second conditions;the locking member (133) is laterally shiftable between the respective first and second conditions; andthe locking member (133) comprises: a first pin (126) having: a first leg (122) forming a pivot axle of the lever; anda second leg (128) positioned to block the movement of the lever to the second condition in the locking member first condition; anda second pin (132) coupled to the first pin and having a portion (146) positioned, in the locking member second condition, to block movement of the lever to the lever first condition. 12. A confectionary product dispensing system comprising: a cabinet (22) having a front (24);a source (42, 50, 52) of the confectionary product within the cabinet; anda valve assembly mounted on the front and comprising: an inlet (70) coupled to the source;a first outlet (72);a second outlet (90); anda valve element (80) shiftable between: a first condition providing communication between the inlet and the first outlet; anda second condition providing communication between the inlet and the second outlet. 13. The system of claim 12 in combination with the confectionary product, the confectionary product being a frozen confectionary product. 14. The system of claim 13 wherein: the source comprises a refrigeration system (50). 15. A method for manufacturing the system of claim 12 comprising: removing a single-outlet valve assembly; andreplacing the single-outlet valve assembly with said valve assembly. 16. A method for operating the system of claim 12, the method comprising: shifting the valve member to the first condition so as to dispense the confectionary product through the first outlet into at least one of a cup and a cone; andinserting the second outlet into a food product and shifting the valve member to the second condition so as to dispense the confectionary product through the second outlet into the food product. 17. A valve assembly (38) for dispensing a confectionary product, the valve assembly comprising: an inlet (70);a first outlet (72);a second outlet (90) at the end of a non-metallic sting (92; 304); anda valve element (80) shiftable between: a first condition providing communication between the inlet and the first outlet; anda second condition providing communication between the inlet and the second outlet. 18. The system of claim 17 wherein: the non-metallic sting comprises a straw (304) having an off-radial cut and forming a lance. 19. The system of claim 17 wherein: the non-metallic sting comprises a straw (304) having a proximal portion stretched over a nipple (300) protruding from a body of the valve assembly. 20. The system of claim 17 wherein one-to-all of: the non-metallic sting is an extrusion;the non-metallic sting has a distal end cut at an at least 30° off-radial angle; andthe non-metallic sting has a proximal end cut at a less than 30° off-radial angle. 21. The system of claim 17 wherein: the non-metallic sting comprises a plastic straw.
