- transponder 2 in the bottle neck as identification means integrated.
- This is preferably a passive transponder for radio frequency identification (RFID).
- RFID radio frequency identification
- a magnetically coupled, passive transponder contains an antenna in the form of a coil, which is connected to an integrated circuit. If the antenna is introduced into a suitable alternating electromagnetic field (exciting field), it absorbs electrical energy from the field, which is provided to supply the integrated circuit. Depending on a code stored in it, this serially changes a characteristic size of the antenna circuit, for example its inductance, or transmits signals to the antenna at a frequency other than that of the exciting field.
- transponders as well as the reading units interacting with them for the detection of the code, are widespread and commercially available and are also referred to as RFID tags.
- the transponder 2 is preferably a device similar to the type Glass TAG 3.1x13.3 from the manufacturer Sokymat SA, Granges (Switzerland). Such a transponder has a diameter of approximately 3.1 millimeters and a length of approximately 13.3 millimeters.

It preferably comprises a flat, ring-shaped antenna coil with one or more turns, which is arranged in the water cooler in such a way that it surrounds the bottle neck when the bottle 1 is inserted in the water cooler, and the transponder 2 is located essentially inside this antenna coil. Furthermore, the identification unit 3 comprises a circuit (a reading unit) which makes it possible to detect the code stored in the transponder. For this purpose, the circuit generates an alternating electromagnetic field, detects the response of the transponder and makes a code determined in this way digitally available at its output in a suitable form. Such circuits are well known and are commercially available. For example, it can be a circuit similar to the Mini Reader Module R / O (GID-110) from the manufacturer Global ID.
- GID-1 Mini Reader Module
- the identification unit 3 also enables the information stored in the transponder to be changed (i.e. there is a read-write unit instead of a mere reading unit). In this way e.g. optionally a status flag "full” / "empty” can be changed in the transponder whenever an empty bottle is removed from the water cooler or whenever a bottle is refilled in a filling device.
- the use of a ring-shaped antenna surrounding the bottle neck has a number of advantages.
- One advantage is that reading the code from the transponder in one Any orientation of the bottle about its longitudinal axis can be done. The bottle does not have to be held in a fixed orientation in the water cooler.
- Another advantage is that a high level of sensitivity can be achieved with little effort, since the area enclosed by the antenna or the circumference enclosed by the antenna can be kept relatively small, in particular in comparison to the circumference of the bottle at its thickest Job.

- the reading process is preferably possible in any orientation of the bottle and can be repeated at any time, as is the case with the above-mentioned system of transponder and identification unit.
- a possible variant is e.g. a flat, flexible transponder, such as is used commercially for the security of goods, for example compact disks or similar flat goods. This can be attached to the neck of the bottle, on the bottom or in other places, in particular glued on. However, such a transponder is not secured to the same extent against damage.
- An optical code is also possible, e.g. Barcode attached to a suitable location on the bottle.
- this can only be read out in a corresponding orientation of the bottle, is susceptible to contamination, and requires a relatively expensive optical reading device in the identification unit 3, which is why a transponder is preferred.

- the drip tray 21 contains e.g. a contact that closes above a certain liquid level in the drip tray and thus transmits information to the computing unit 4 about the fill level of the drip tray 21. In a simpler version there is only one float for the visual display of the fill level.
- FIG. 2 a flow diagram for a method for operating a water cooler according to the invention is shown.
- the method comprises the following steps: commissioning 201, status test 202, decision step 203, data exchange 204, initialization 205, deactivation 206, option selection 207 and drink dispensing 208.
- the water cooler is put into operation in the commissioning step 201.
- the computing unit 4 is started in particular.
- the step 201 of commissioning can also include further processes as long as the water cooler is put into a defined operating state at the end.
- the next step is a status test 202, in which various checks take place, which are repeated regularly in operation. For example, the presence of a bottle 1 in the holder is checked. If there is a transponder 2 on the neck of the bottle 1, the identification unit 3 reads a code stored in the transponder 2 and thus identifies the bottle. The code is transmitted to the computing unit 4 and stored in a memory area of the computing unit 4. If the code cannot be determined, e.g. because of a faulty or nonexistent NEN transponders, a corresponding status message is transmitted to the computing unit 4 and stored in the memory area.
- a function test of the radiation unit 16 is carried out, if necessary the fill level of the drip tray 21 is checked, and the gas pressures in the gas containers 30, 30 'are determined with the help of the pressure gauges 31, 31'.
- the results of these checks are stored in the memory area of the computing unit 4 and compared with existing data.
- further steps are checked, for example the last replacement of the cold water reservoir of the cooler 13 may be checked.
- a number of status information items are generated and stored in the computing unit 4.
- more, fewer or different checks can be part of the status test 202.
- Status information can include, for example, the indication of errors that have occurred or cause the database computer to automatically order consumables, in particular water bottles, gas containers or aroma containers. In this way, an automatic supply of the water cooler with consumables is achieved on the one hand, and on the other hand needs-based maintenance and thus hygienic operation is made possible.
- the water cooler is then put into a defined operating state in initialization step 205.
- three operating states can be distinguished.
- a first operating state (branching N)
- beverage removal is not possible
- a deactivation step 206 the water cooler is blocked for further use.
- This state is initiated when the status test 202 has revealed critical malfunctions or another critical state. This can be the case, for example, if the radiation unit is not functional, components are missing or a maintenance interval has been exceeded.
- the water cooler can be used again after the error has been rectified.
- the third operating state (branching Y) is assumed when the bottle identification was successful, no inconsistencies occurred and the status test did not show any malfunctions. In this state the water cooler is fully operational.
- the operating state and possibly further information are displayed to the user on the input / output unit 6, so that the user can, for example, solve any problems that may exist.
- the water cooler In the third operating state, the water cooler enables the user to select various options via the input / output unit 6, e.g. with regard to the enrichment of the water with gases and / or flavorings.
- the water cooler waits for the extraction valve 19 to be actuated. Such actuation is transmitted to the computing unit 4 which pumps 10, flow cooler 13 and possibly valves 33, 33 'and / or pumps 41, 41 ', 41' 'controls.
- the arithmetic unit 4 determines updated consumption data on the basis of the amount of water determined by the flow meter 11, the current values of the gas pressure determined by the pressure gauges 31, 31 'and the aroma substance emitted and, if appropriate, carries out function tests again. The rest of the process is now repeated.
- the operation can include further processes that run continuously, periodically or at irregular time intervals.
- a step can take place in which the telecommunication unit 5 is placed in a state in which it is ready to receive data.
- This data can include instructions to the water cooler to assume a certain operating state. But you can also include data sen that are to be displayed on the input-output unit 6, for example operational information or messages.
- the transmission protocol of the telecommunication unit is suitable for the transmission of large amounts of data (as with the GPRS protocol), program data can also be transmitted which make it possible to change the operating program of the water cooler.
- a central database 302 with a water cooler 301 and other locations, in particular a logistics company 303, a water supplier 304, a cooler producer 305, a gas supplier 306, a service area 307, and a call center 308 communicated.
- the water cooler 301 Based on the results of the checks carried out during commissioning and in the status test, the water cooler 301 sends an SMS or GPRS message via a wireless GSM network to the computer in the database 302.
- the message is processed here and, depending on its content, various processes triggered. Some of these processes are explained below using typical scenarios as examples.
- the water cooler 301 sends the code of this bottle to the database 302.
- a computer in the database 302 updates the data stored in the database, determines whether a new delivery of water bottles is required and, if necessary, automatically sends an order to the water supplier 304 to provide a predetermined or calculated number of water bottles. At the same time, the database automatically sends an order to the supplier.
- Logistics company 303 to collect the water bottles provided from the water supplier and deliver them to the customer with whom the water cooler 301 is located. Further steps can follow; For example, the computer in the database can send accounting data to an accounting area, send a confirmation message to the water cooler, etc.
- status test 202 results in a serious malfunction and the water cooler is deactivated in step 206.
- the water cooler sends a message in step 204 with information about the error that has occurred to the database 302.
- the database computer compares this information with stored data and initiates various actions based on this comparison. For example, if the comparison reveals the need for a service technician, the database computer automatically sends a service order to the service area 307. If the comparison reveals the need for spare parts, this information is transmitted to the cooler manufacturer 305, etc.
- water supplier 304 finds that a certain series of water bottles contain low-quality water. This information is transmitted to the database 302 with the identification codes of the water bottles concerned. Whenever a user inserts a new water bottle into a water cooler and the water cooler then sends a message with the code of a newly inserted water bottle to the database, this code is checked by the database. If it is the code of a water bottle with inferior water, a message is immediately sent to the relevant water cooler, which triggers a deactivation of the water cooler. This enables effective quality assurance with regard to the water used.
